The home was absolutely lovely! Very peaceful with the views of the lake. The house was cozy and decorated lovely, very well stocked and exceptionally clean! Beautiful anytime of the year!
This house was the cleanest house we have ever rented. Absolutely beautiful view, the kitchen is well equipped. We had three adult couples, plenty of room for everyone inside and outside of the house. Great location!

Thank you Debbie for sharing your beautiful pictures! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Our cleaners do an amazing job ensuring the house is always in immaculate condition prior to guest’s arrival. We hope to have you stay again.
Our second stay at this great property in a beautiful lake-front setting. We had an issue with the thermostat and host responded immediately and was able to fix the problem remotely. Only hiccup was lack of a microwave — they are obviously in the process of replacing it, so that should not be a future concern. Highly recommended!

Thank you for your review Michalene. We are so glad you enjoyed the home and beautiful views it offers. Hope to have you stay again!
This was a great property located right on the water. The house was exactly as described. Our group of seven: two couples, another friend, and two adult children, fit perfectly. Our host was responsive to questions. The kitchen was well equipped and the adjustable beds were comfortable. We enjoyed gorgeous sunsets and sunrises over Lake Erie from the deck, and saw a bald eagle, herons, egrets, and a family of ducks.

Thank you for the review! The sunsets really are the best, and there is certainly no shortage of bird watching! We hope you will return, and please tell your friends about us!

We’re glad you enjoyed the home and view :) Thank you for staying!
Home was more beautiful than the photos. Location was perfect for us in a quiet residential area but with easy access to everything. Kitchen was well equipped, beds were comfortable and the deck was huge. The lake views were amazing.
We had a great stay at this home. It is clean, comfortable, and had a beautiful view of the lake from their large outside deck. We had a brief issue with the thermostat when we arrived (mostly user error), but we received an immediate response when we sent a message.
