Just steps from Lake Erie, this neighborhood puts you in the heart of the action along the iconic “Strip” — a lively stretch packed with arcades, diners, bars, and classic boardwalk fun. Enjoy burgers at Eddie’s Grill, play a round of mini-golf, or take in a sunset by the shore.
Days here are laid-back and nostalgic, while summer nights bring live music and an energetic, festive vibe. Outdoor lovers will enjoy nearby Geneva State Park for hiking, boating, and beach access. And just a short drive away, downtown Geneva offers local wineries, breweries, and the popular Grape Jamboree each fall.
Perfect for guests who want a mix of lakeside relaxation and casual fun, this is where summer memories are made.
Getting Around: Less than a 10 minute walk to all the action on the "Strip". Catch a shuttle to the wineries right across the street at The Lodge.
Other Things to Note: How to Use the Jacuzzi Tub: Please ensure the water level reaches the top of all jets before turning them on. To activate the jets, press the button located on the tub near the faucet and handles. Important: Do not overfill the tub.
