About this property

Port Clinton Home~Lake & Park Views~Beach Access!

Welcome to The Lake Erie Hutch, your home away from home! If you are searching for the perfect beach vacation spot, your search is over. Located in the heart of Port Clinton and the Lake Erie Islands, this Cape Cod style cottage encompasses everything you would expect in a lakeview home. You will be very close to the Jet Express to enjoy a day of Island hopping and fun! Less than 2 minutes from the ferry as well as downtown Port Clinton for live weekend music and festivals throughout the summer.
Entering the home, you are greeted with a large open floor plan, with tall ceilings, premium furnishings and bright airy windows offering lake views. There is a spacious well-equipped Kitchen and dining room seating for 4. Off to one side of the Dining Room are Bedrooms 1 and 2 with Queen sized beds. The upstairs Cape Cod style room is where bedroom 3 is located, with a double sized bed and two twin sized beds that can be joined to make a large king sized bed. You can also use the upstairs bedroom as an all kids room.
From the Sunroom you can get a great view of the park and lake. 4 doors down from the public beach access in Port Clinton with everyone’s beach side enjoyment. The sandy bottom and gradual sloping water depth allow for some of the best swimming in the area. Cedar Point is about 19 miles away making this location great for a day at the park. This house is the perfect place to sit under the stars with a cocktail while catching glimpses of shooting stars. This house can also be rented with the house next door to sleep up to 16 total guests for a total of 6 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. Please send an inquiry about booking both homes together.

We do require a "Security/Damage Hold" for all rentals. This is not a charge and is intended for accidental damage that may happen during your stay.

April fishing trip

The Beach Hut was perfect place for me and a couple friends to spend a long weekend fishing the walleye capital of the world. The house was close to downtown Port Clinton, it was clean, well maintained and we had plenty of room with comfortable beds. The driveway was big enough for my truck and 23 foot boat which made it very convenient.

Wonderful Place to Stay in Port Clinton

Me and some friends stayed at the Beach Hut for our fishing trip and really enjoyed the home. House was clean and orderly when we arrived, rooms were comfortable, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Would definitely stay here for our next trip.

Family Vacation

We enjoyed our stay at this Port Clinton home. There was a fun playground right outside the front door. The house was very clean and roomy. The beach is a short walking distance away. The week we were there it was not open for swimming, but I understand it is usually fine. Other beaches were within a short drive. We liked the patio with the fire pit. It would be better if there was a larger table in the kitchen.

6th birthday beach trip bonanza!!

The Beach Hutch is an awesome property. The house was lovely. It’s quite well suited to two families sharing it with the effectively divided living spaces. The proximity of the park and the beach was fantastic for our kindergarten age children and our dog. One parent could slip over to the park as though it was the front yard of the house and play with the kids at any time to keep them occupied when they were becoming restless. The beach was but a few steps farther. Nice and shallow, great beach for kids!! Hosts were fantastic to work with! We will definitely rent this one again!

Perfect for families

This home was perfect for us. Directly across the street was one of the nicest parks I have ever been to. There was so much for kids of all ages. Connected to that park is access to the beach which we enjoyed. The home itself is beautiful and charming. The neighborhood is quiet and on a one-way street. There is plenty of parking. The kids enjoyed the upstairs loft all to themselves. You are minutes from the Jet Express and about 20 min from Miller's Ferry. You are very close to downtown Port Clinton with a ton of entertainment as well as anything in the Lakeside Marblehead area. We will be saving this spot for future trips!

Beautiful place, great location

The location was just great. The house itself is beautiful. Very clean. Good communication.It was rather expensive and therefore disappointing that we struggle to keep the house cool enough. There were settings on the thermostat that did not allow you to run it for more than a half an hour before it shut off for a couple of hours and locked you out and wouldn’t let you turn it on again. The bed in the back of the house was like a catchers and very uncomfortable for those guests. The checkout process was very tedious and overwhelming, and I think too much given that the house was quite expensive and the fees should cover much of what is requested. Overall, a great place and would recommend highly. Nobody’s perfect.

Great home for weekend getaway!

The Lake Erie Beach Hutch provided everything we needed for a family weekend getaway-easy to find, great location near the beach and a playground, and very walkable neighborhood with our dogs! The house had plenty of room, and was clean- we all remarked how immaculate the bathroom was! We loved the backyard for winding down after a busy day out! The owners were easily reachable and great to work with. First time in Port Clinton and we will be back after this wonderful experience!

This review was accidental which is why it did not have a comment from the guest. The guest tried many times to call and get it removed to replace with a 10/10 but Vrbo would not update.
