About this property

"SHELLSEEKER" 4 BED LAKEFRONT PRIVATE BEACH SLEEPS 14 plus

Entire place ITS YOUR HOME !

The Home is Open to you and your guests!

SHELLSEEKER- A 4 Bedroom, 2 Full Bath, 1 Story Sleeps 14 utilizing 2 trundle twins.

SHELLSEEKER is a Lake Front home, with it own patio, and private beach. The Entrance to the beach is to the east side of the home.

The Patio is very spacious, and a New Patio was added that is elevated for Viewing and a New Firepit. There is seating for 20 plus on the patio, and there is a Gas Fireplace table, along with a Dining Table with chairs, and 2 more Round Dining tables, along with 5 Adirondack Chairs! We provide a Full propane tank at check in. You need to replace it if you run out!

The Dining area is very spacious with seating of 8 or more! Look at the pictures!
The Living room is very nice with lots of space for all!

SHELLSEEKER is one of 5 homes available by the same owner in Sand Beach, a 1920’s gated community. There is one way out, and one way in! It is bordered on the South by a Serene Marsh with active wildlife, and on the North by Lake Erie! Armor stone protects the front of the home, but there is a sandy beach and entrance to the lake just a few feet from the side door!

SHELLSEEKER is a short distance to Beachcomber and Beach Nuts. Both houses are completely remodeled and can sleep over 20 additional guests! Just Ask! And it less than a 1/8 mile from Beachcomber.

The Pictures show many of the features. Shellseekr is completely remodeled, and has a five star review from every guest! Many of the guests return each year, and it books early. The Home has a large stackable washer and dryer, central air, and internet/cable through Spectrum TV utilizing Roku TV. Amenities include all sheets and pillow cases, and beach towels and bath towels. Every Room has a TV!

The Kitchen is extremely well stocked. There is more than enough cookware, and each guest comments how well stock it is! We even have a Crockpot!
Three of the Bedrooms are together, 1 King, 2 Queens , and are extremely comfortable. All are on the main floor. The other Queen Bedroom and Bunk Bed Room is off the laundry area and has two bunk beds with a trundle under each.

The home has a Bonus Room with large table and benches to play cards or have more friends for dinner ! A Great place to put the Kids!
BRING YOUR OWN: Food, Plastic Silverware, Paper products, shampoos, etc. You should have ample pellets for the laundry and dishwasher, but bring your own if you run out!
Some spices are provided, but you should bring your own needs.

Dining Area off Kitchen, Another Dining and Game area with table and benches. Beach is YOUR BEACH... Open to the House from the East Side. I also have another Big Beach about 1/8 of a Mile away you may use that is shallow and nice and sandy as well.

OUTSIDE PATIO GRILL- PROPANE
OUTSIDE FIRE TABLE - PROPANE 6 HIGHBACK CHAIRS

Very Nice. Kick back and relax.

Great memories

We had been looking forward to this trip all year and it did not disappoint! Sunsets on the lake were great with a good breeze most days. Small private beach was fun and most things were no more than 30-45 minutes away. We will go back if possible, Thanks again Ted!

Fun getaway

We picked this spot as a halfway meeting point between our families. I had never been to Lake Erie or heard about it as a destination. This was a great spot for our group. The house was in a great location. The outdoor areas were amazing-we spent most mornings and evening outside watching the sunrise and sunset. The house was comfortable and well stocked. Would definitely return.

We had a small family trip over Labor Day weekend and this house was perfect. It was super clean and had a beautiful view of the lake. Within easy driving distance of events and attractions but not too close. Nice and relaxing. Definitely would stay in this house again.

Totality Great Spot

Shell Seeker was a perfect cozy place for our family gathering to experience the Total Solar Eclipse. The layout, amenities, views, yard space, and neihborhood were great and very appropriate for families like ours with young kids! Communication with the property manager was top notch. If we ever plan a trip over that way again, we plan to seek out this property or at least this property manager again.

The stay was wonderful. The house and property were exactly as listed. Great views! Our kids enjoyed the small private beach and the deck for tanning. The adults enjoyed fishing in the evenings. Very spacious for the 13 of us. 10 adults, 2 teenagers and 1 child. Manager Ted is very helpful and accommodating.

About the host

Hosted by Ted Behnken, Manager

Host profile image
One of the Original Homes in the Historic Sand Beach Subdivision, originally created in the 1920's, during the Big Band Era. The Sand Beach Pavillion originally stood .25 miles away, where many big bands from the 20's played. This is one of the ranch homes owned by the original developers of Sand Beach. It has been remodeled and is a very comfortable home with many views and many updates.

Why they chose this property

Its a very well kept home, with many features including many updates. Granite countertops, nice bathrooms, a Private beach, over three lakefront lots.

What makes this property unique

Sand beach is a private community and is very historical from the 1920s when there was a big dance hall at the entrance.

If you have your own boat or golf cart you may bring that with you and use that on the private roads within the community.

There are several recreational areas inside of the community for children

You may enjoy going to Cedar point which is approximately 30 miles away or you may visit many of the local eateries including Porky’s Pizza Trof, wild wings restaurant or drive into Port Clinton where there is many options available to eat

As well there is a ferry that goes from Port Clinton to put in Bay so you can enjoy daytrip’s to the islands

On a very rainy day you may consider going to the casino in Rossford which is approximately 30 miles away
Great to walk in , nearly a mile stretch of Beachfront adjoins this home.

Marina is less than 1/8 of a mile away, and a boat slip can be obtain for a nominal fee.

There is a Dollar General store for basics, and a Walmart to the west and east, about 15 miles away! Oak Harbor has an IGA store, and Jacks Superette is a great place to get meats to grill. About 5 miles west.

Eating: Porkys Pizza....1 mile. Wild WIngs Rest. .25 Miles, and check out Lagoon Saloon or Port clinton for great food.
Also try Put-In-Bay, Cedar Point ! or a great Fish place called Tackle Box 2 in Fremont, Ohio.
Gas: At the Marathon right at the entrance to the beach!
Charter? Just ask. I will recommend several!
