About this property

Geneva, Direct Lakefront, Hot Tub, Ohio's Wine Country

Enjoy Ohio's Wine Country at this beautiful, professionally cleaned Lakefront property by sipping wine in your private hot tub while watching the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets Lake Erie offers.

Our cottage is cozy, and you'll love it when your stress melts away upon entering the hot tub and relaxing in the private backyard with majestic views of Lake Erie.

We are located about one mile east of the famous strip in Geneva-on-the-Lake. There are shops, bars, restaurants, and some great area parks and beaches. We are also just minutes from Bridge St. in the Historic Ashtabula Harbor. Ashtabula County is known for its covered bridges; consider taking a covered bridge tour or visiting one of the many area wineries. Please let us know which winery you and your guests prefer the most! Come and see all that Ashtabula County has to offer.

The surrounding area offers a wealth of activities for those seeking something to do. You will not have enough time to do it all. At the same time, there is so little to do, so bring along that book you want to read and sit on the back deck with 180-degree views of Lake Erie, listening to the crashing waves. Our cottage will not disappoint!!!

The cottage is stocked with great board games, and you can enjoy playing some old-school games on the table arcade game (Pac-Man, Galaga, Frogger, Donkey Kong, etc.) while looking out over the lake.

There is a fenced-in yard, a grill for cooking out, and a huge deck to relax, soak up the sun, and enjoy the magical views Lake Erie offers from the big new large hot tub. The yard is completely private and features a fire pit, cornhole, and ample outdoor space for your entertainment.

The cottage has high-speed internet, a complete cable package, and a 50" Roku Smart TV in the living area, which is excellent for watching big sports games or movies.

Our cottage has been completely remodeled, and all furnishings are brand new. There are two bedrooms; The master has a king-size bed, a dresser, a nightstand, a closet, and a 32" Roku Smart TV. The second bedroom has a queen-size bed, a dresser, a nightstand, and a TV. The bathroom features a large, beautifully tiled walk-in shower with a built-in seat. There is a sectional couch, a coffee table, and a 50" Roku Smart TV in the living area with amazing views of Lake Erie. The dining area seats four and offers fantastic views as well. The kitchen is stocked well with the basics.

Due to Lake Erie's rising water levels, for your safety, we do not recommend using the walkway down to the water. There is, however, a beach at the Geneva State Park, about 3.5 miles west of us.

If you're looking to recharge your batteries, we'd love to host you at our Lakefront Oasis.

Dog-friendly: Small to medium-sized dogs are welcome with prior approval and an additional fee of $150 per stay.

Please note: For the security of our guests and the safety of our property, we have installed external security cameras at the front door, side yard, and backyard. Any attempt to disable or obscure the cameras is strictly prohibited and may result in the guest being asked to leave without a refund.

Relaxing Stay with Great View

We had a very relaxing and wonderful stay. The view is breathtaking and the hot tub is great for a sunset. The house was very clean and has everything you need for a nice getaway to the lake. My wife and I came for a short stay to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect quiet spot but close to the stip

Wow! This is such a perfect property. The cliff edge curves in such a way that when looking out the window or sitting in your hot tub, you feel like you’re completely alone on the lake. Despite how quiet and private the location feels, you can still catch a ride down to the strip or have food delivered. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook and the rooms were impeccably clean. The couches were more comfortable than most rentals and made an evening playing board games quite enjoyable when the rain was coming down. We will definitely be staying here again! Well worth the price!

Breathtaking views

The views from the house are amazing. Even though it’s windy right by the lake, sitting in the hot tub and watching the sunset is perfection. This house was the perfect size for our family of four. Our little ones (3 and 7) had a blast running around the spacious yard. We rented this house for a little peace and relaxation and it surpassed our expectations!

Girl's Getaway

This is a magnificent property! You are right on the lake so gorgeous views. If you like walking in the morning, go east. There are tons of views of the lake because they cannot build many homes due to the ravine. We were about 1 mile outside of Geneva on the Lake, on the east side. There was a shuttle taking us to and from town. We booked a winery tour through the Geneva State Park Lodge. Plus, the hot tub was a nice bonus. We would definitely come back to stay!

Nature filled getaway

My friend and I wanted a low-key, nature filled getaway by the lake and this was the perfect place to do it. The lakefront views are phenomenal! We built fires while overlooking the lake and also enjoyed the hot tub. The best part of our stay was the two bald eagles that perched right above us in the tree on the property. What a sight! We felt like we hung out with them all day and watched them hunt along the lake. We saw herons and ducks and seagulls galore! The sunset was remarkable and a perfect way to enter into the evening while lighting a nice fire. The convenient store down the road is so close and came in such great handy. We got plenty of snacks and firewood to keep us content while we stayed. The home was very clean and cozy, couldn’t ask for more. We look forward to coming back for another lake stay. Thank you so much for sharing and providing us with this treasure of an estate.

A relaxing week by the water

The property looked the same in person as it did in the photos. Everything was clean and well stocked when we arrived. The property proved the relaxation that my guests and I needed. If we ever come back to Geneva-on-the-lake we will definitely try to reserve the Escape to the Lake.

Heaven on the lake!

This was our honeymoon week. We opted for a quiet serene get away, and we are so glad we chose this home. It was clean, comfy, and had everything we needed. Mike even left us some firewood. The view was amazing and the hot tub was awesome! We have no complaints however a few things that could be improved... The $500 security hold, not cool to tie up travelers funds while they're vacationing. The grill worked but was shotty. I'd suggest adding overhead porch coverage at least to a small area. Lastly a few USB connections would be nice.
