Lake Front Cottage Perfect for Fisherman, Birders, and Family Vacations.

A spectacular spot for fishing, bird watching, swimming, and enjoying the best of Lake Erie. The backyard faces a channel to Lake Erie where you can fish or end the evening on the deck watching the sun set over the lake. A few steps out the front door and you have access to a private beach for swimming.

The cottage has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full size hideaway sofa/bed, a three seasons room, washer/dryer, and an open floor plan living, dining, and kitchen area. We have a fire table and Adirondack seating to the backyard for viewing those perfect sunsets. We also have WIFI for those who need to stay connected and the home is handicap accessible so everyone is welcome to enjoy the getaway.

Our cottage is conveniently located next door to Locust Point Marina. They have daily and weekly dock and ramp passes available. We are just 10 minutes from Magee Marsh where spectacular bird watching can be seen. A 20 minute drive takes you to Port Clinton for dining, shopping, or a ferry trip over to the island Put-In-Bay. For the more adventurous Cedar Point, the roller coaster capital of the world is just 45 minutes away.

Perfect Home Base for Birding

Great location for birding at the preserves nearby, and it had all the amenities we needed: a dishwasher, electric kettle, all the kitchen supplies, washer/dryer, and plenty of places to snuggle up to read or watch the boats go by. We would stay here again.
All the kitchen gadgets and things you need, including plastic trays for kids.
Basics like sugar and salt.
Double doors to primary bath for accessibility.
Plenty of space to sit and enjoy company outside or in.

Great location for Magee Marsh birding

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage on the lake. The skies were incredible and it was a pleasure to sit outside or in the sun room in the evenings. The location was perfect to get to the birding hot spots during migration.
