Perfect for a couples getaway or multi family vacation. The main house and guest pool house were very clean, organized, and had generous supplies of kitchen items, pool towels, bath towels, games, etc. The pool was spotless and well maintained. The hosts clearly care about your experience in their home.

Oh, what a joy this house is! Steve and Avery are wonderful hosts and have thought of all the details. The house is stocked with towels, cooking necessities, pool rafts, games, and so many odds and ends you need when traveling! The beds are comfy, the house is inviting, and the back pool patio- our ABSOLUTE fave! The location is fantastic and close to many attractions, yet you feel like you are in a nice country setting.Thank you, Steve and Avery, for such a wonderful stay! We will definitely be back!

We loved our long weekend on Fremont street and the communication was excellent. Close to downtown but have the peaceful quiet surroundings when hanging out at the pool that is meticulously maintained. They thought of everything on this one! We would love to stay again!

We had a very nice stay at this Port Clinton home! The unit was very comfortable and clean. We loved the pool and back deck, and enjoyed the rural setting with lots of birds at the bird feeder. The owners had provided many extras, including board games, a nintendo switch, a fully stocked kitchen and lots of towels (which is always helpful). The pool house was more spacious than we were expecting with it's own kitchen and living room area. The location was great for getting to downtown Port Clinton, Marblehead, Lakeside, Cedar Point, and Catawba, with easy access to Route 2. The only negative was the road noise since cars would pass frequently at high speeds on the fairly busy road. But we would definitely recommend this VRBO to others!

Wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay - two families with children, plenty of space for everyone and plenty of activities. Property is in a great location to explore Port Clinton and Put-in-Bay. Outdoor space is lovely. Owners were exceptional hosts Strongly recommend and would consider staying if we are in the area in the future.

This was such a great house! It was perfect for our family and the babies. The pool was great and nice that it had a wall around it so perfect for the littles! Steve was very accommodating and answered questions quickly. The house was in a perfect location close to everything. We all really enjoyed our stay and couldn’t have asked for a better house!

Greatly exceeded expectations!

We couldn’t be happier with our stay here. The property itself is wonderful, but the details are what really made our time special! From the entire outdoor area and the pool, to the amenities inside we were thoroughly impressed. We can’t recommend staying here enough and plan to book again next time we are in the area!
