The house was very clean. The neighborhood was very quiet. Close to the beach. Great location. If you have young kids there’s a large playground a few blocks away.
Property was clean and modern in a good location close to Lakeview Park and Lake Erie. Nice quiet residential neighborhood. Recommend.

Perfect place to stay
The 9 of us thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the house to be very comfortable. The house was clean and roomy for our family of 9. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. The bedrooms were spacious and beds were very comfortable. Quiet neighborhood and convenient to all of our family living there. Would highly recommend this house.
The host really took the time to include small details into the space and it pays off! They have so many extra blankets for you and it was so clean, the linens even smelled like laundry detergent. The top two bedrooms do not have great air circulation and it got way to warm for us to stay up there but overall it was a wonderful property and we had a great time!
The house was a great place to getaway for a few days. We were there for the Port Clinton walleye drop on new year's eve. It was only blocks away from the downtown area and it's walking distance to the beach in the summer. The house was well furnished and very comfortable in the winter. We loved the fence around the backyard for some privacy and grassy area to walk the dogs. Definitely a great place to stay when in the Port Clinton area.

Great stay - lots of little things
Stayed for 3 nights in April - 8 of us fit great. Host has thought of lots of little things - games, beach chairs and towels, kitchen is nicely stocked. House was clean and organized. Great communication from host. The only thing I would say might need a little help is the upstairs shower-head and a couple of the beds weren’t the most comfy.

From the owner: "Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. Thank you also for your feedback, we will consider that in our next improvements."
The house was as described. The four that slept on main floor were very comfortable. The two upstairs were not! Too warm for that time of year and no air conditioning. But over all stay was very pleasant. We spent most of our time outside on a spacious patio playing cornhole provided for us. I would definitely rent this house again.
The listing was exactly as described. It was clean and felt safe. The kitchen was stocked with every you could need! The park within walking distance is awesome for young kids! You can also walk to the lake - which was nice for walks but we didn’t play there. The owner was very quick to respond to messages. The only negative was that the upstairs was a bit hot. We were there during one of the hottest weeks but it was warm. They did have nice fans and did their best to keep it cool. I would rent this property again.

From the owner:"Thank you for your review. We hope you stay again."
This was the perfect spot for our 8 person family vacation, 6 adults and two kids 3 and under. The yard was super family friendly and it was a nice surprise to have a kiddie pool available. The hose was great for rinsing off when returning from the beach. The house had a beach cart, beach chairs, and towels, which cut down on our packing significantly. The kitchen was well stocked with the basics, and the washer and dryer was great to have. The only notes would be to watch the hot water- it’s hot! and it would be helpful to have a full size mirror somewhere when lots of adults are trying to get ready at the same time. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay at the house again!

Cute place. Perfect for our family of 5 and the corgi. Was very clean, well stocked and comfortable beds. Walking distance to lake/beach area.
We enjoyed our family vacation here! The back yard is a great place to hang out. We played corn hole and grilled out. The islands and Cedar Point were just a short drive away. We enjoyed the short walk to the park and Port Clinton beach. The owners have made this house a great vacation home!
Overall we were very pleased with the rental. Just a few tips to make it a premiere host would to be have shampoo, soap, etc available in the bathrooms and a little more utensils, cookware, bowls in the kitchen. Also the upstairs got a little warm during the day.
The house was very clean and recently remodeled. We had a great week. The location is conveniently located for the islands and Cedar Point. Local amenities, such as the the downtown area on Madison, the beach and the port area are all only a few minutes away. The owners were also very responsive to any questions.
