About this property

The Blue House with Lake Views

Charming home across from Lake Erie in quiet Lakeside neighborhood. Guests will love the beautiful finishes, unique decor and high end touches! Lake views just across the street, stroll to the beach 2 min away or relax in the shady backyard.

Bright and open first floor with entry, living room with smart tv, sunroom/office, dining room, kitchen and half bath. Kitchen features gas stove/oven, dishwasher, stainless refrigerator, and is well-stocked for preparing meals or baking to your heart’s desire! Brew your favorite coffees, teas and cocoas provided, too!

Three spacious bedrooms upstairs with soft bedding for restful nights. Our favorite is the I Love Lucy Suite that features vintage bedroom set circa 1953! Mixed with Erie, PA artist’s rendition of Lucy and retro bedding, this room is a fun escape. Bedroom #2 is queen room with lake view, and Bedroom #3 is king room with lake view, large smart TV. Full bathroom upstairs, half bath on first floor. Laundry in basement.

Guests can retreat into the backyard hammock, patio or take a short 2 minute walk to the beach at Chautauqua Park. Look for the park bench, then follow the natural-root carved path down to the rocky beach- full of beach glass! It's an adventure to climb down but people of all ages enjoy the quiet beach here. Boat ramps 3-5 minute drive, 5 minutes to downtown, 15 minute drive to Presque State Park and Waldameer Amusement Park and Water World.

Charming house in a nice neighborhood

The house was clean, the beds comfortable. The kitchen had everything needed to cook dinners and we appreciated the hot beverage options provided (KCup variety & tea bags.) The nearby parks were perfect for enjoying the amazing Erie sunsets.

Great stay with thoughtful touches

The Blue House is lovely and served us well. The house was very clean, cozy, airy, and light-filled. The host left a great information binder that helped us locate the neighborhood beach access. The K-Cups were appreciated. We would recommend this house for sure.

Blue House and Presque Isle

We loved our stay at the Blue House! The house was very clean and fully stocked with everything we needed! Janelle was very timely with responding to any questions that we had! We would definitely stay here again! We enjoyed our adventures at Presque Isle, Erie SeaWolves game, Tom Ridge Environmental Center, Waldmeer, and Scallywags pirate cruise! Thank you for the recommendations!

Work Group

Our team met in Erie during the work week to discuss product changes with a supplier partner. 3 of us stayed at the Blue House and we enjoyed the comfortable setting to gather for morning coffee and again in the evenings to recap /plan for each coming day. The nearby park also was nice to soak up the views at the shoreline. Highly recommended.

Calm. Quiet. Clean.

Beautifully remodeled/updated turn-of-century colonial. Mattresses are firm (not our preference, but for some it is!), and seem brand new. No dust! Our kids LOVED playing hide-n-seek for hours!! Plenty of hospitable items if soaps, full sized shampoo/conditioner, pretty full sized towels, tp, plates, cookware--keurig carafe/single serve unit withchouces of coffees and teas, pancake-waffle mix, syrups, and waffle maker! Beautiful view out all levels of front windows to see Lake Erie across the street. Minimal lighting, ceiling fixtures ( did bring in table lamp from study to LR as ceiling light reflected into tv screen). Not a big issue for us as there was an available lamp. Wonderful stay. 😊
