Great vacation home

We had a wonderful long weekend! This is the second year we have come up to Lake Erie and stayed in this beautiful lake home. The house is perfect and has everything you would need. We played several of the board games and cards they had on hand. Our kids loved the big Jenga game. The view from the deck is our favorite. Proximity to the ferries, restaurants, stores makes everything so convenient. The new grill was perfect, we were able to grill the fish we caught on the lake. Thank you form sharing your amazing home.

GREAT LOCATION - BEAUTIFUL HOME

Our group absolutely loved this home. Very clean, comfy beds, amazing views. The location is quiet and very convenient for a quick jaunt to grab the ferry to PIB in Port Clinton, or to Kellys Island via Marblehead (we went to KI and had a great day.) We truly enjoyed our little getaway and plan to rent again.

Eclipse April 2024 - Family Time

This home was on Lake Erie and was exactly what we were looking for. The entire family was there and the house was large enough where everyone had time to spread out and the outside was perfect for eclipse viewing.

Family getaway

Beautiful house with spectacular views of Lake Erie and sunsets. Large deck right on the water provided a great area for the family to hang out. Semi-difficult to get into the water because of the rocky shore, but if you bring swim shoes you shouldn't have much problem. Overall a very enjoyable stay!

Book it!

We have stayed at many places and had many different experiences, but this place does not disappoint. Everything was clean, comfortable, and quiet. The neighbors were friendly, the view cannot be beat, and your a 2-5 minute cab ride from anywhere you want to be! Was worth every penny and would recommend to anyone trying to find a place in this area.

The best birthday celebration ever from a big family dinner in the beautiful kitchen to a trip to Kelley’s Island and an afternoon on the deck to a spectacular Italian dinner out. We loved it and would visit again. Thank you.

Stunning View!

The view… amazing! My family and I spent many hours on the deck taking in the gorgeous view. The house fit our needs and was as described. There was plenty of room for us to spread out. The neighborhood is quiet. We were sad to leave. The kids are already asking to go back next year!

Our Favorite place

A return visit for us to the amazing Lake House right on the Lake literally. We love looking out & sitting on the wonderful deck and enjoying the view of the Lake. It’s like being on the Ocean. The owner has done some nice updates from last year that made our stay even better. We love coming so much we will be back next year. The home has everything you need, what a perfect place to stay on the Lake.

mini family reunion

Our family group attended a wedding in nearby Catawba Island and wanted to have more togetherness than hotel rooms provide. This property had ample living/ dining/ kitchen space for our group of 8 to gather. With the four bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, we also had our own spaces and didn't have to wait on line to use the bathroom. The house is RIGHT on the lake, which is ideal for warmer weather! It also has many cute nautical decorative touches. When we had a question, our email was responded to promptly.

Great spot but needs some upkeep

The location was great!! The hot water heater is way too small to accommodate 8 people. Both full baths need updates! The gas grill was so gross we didn't end up using it. It is very nicely decorated and cabinets have all the spices and dishes you need

Lakeview Retreat

What a wonderful and relaxing time for 9 women half working half retired to catch up with each other lives. The accommodations were comfortable inside and out. Every question or concern I asked was responded to in a timely manner. You can walk around house to next door to walk into the lake with a sandy bottom and no rocks. As you can see with this listing, the view is AWESOME!!! ☆☆☆☆☆

Lovely Lakefront View

We had a wonderful stay at this home in Port Clinton. The house is *directly* on the water. When you are sleeping in the ground floor primary bedroom, it almost feels like you are on a houseboat the water is so close. The deck overlooking the water is just lovely - we found ourselves relaxing out there the most. The home is well appointed and we were super impressed with the adjustable beds! Just little extra comfort items that made the trip all the more enjoyable. Highly recommend! And bring your binoculars if you enjoy birdwatching - the cormorants, swans, and other lake fowl really put on a show!

Great house on Lake Erie

What an amazing home on Lake Erie. We had such a great time with family & enjoyed some better weather & boating. Everything was perfect, very clean, roomy, & the big plus it’s right on the Lake literally the deck is right at the lake level. We did get in there but you had to be careful getting in & out because of the rocks. The grandchildren did not have any problems at all. The best part was watching the sunset over the lake simply breathtaking. We definitely will rent this again. We loved ever minute we were there, just went to fast is all.
