Would definitely stay here again! This place was the right amount of space for my family of 4. Very clean and the kitchen particularly was immaculate. We also appreciated the proximity to the main road and were surprised at how quiet the location was. Thank you for our stay and hope to book next year!

Great stay

Our family loved our time at the house. Kitchen was fully stocked allowing us to make family dinners easily. We were out and about most of the days, but enjoyed spending the evening in the backyard playing games and time together. We loved how close we were to the lake, the park, and local areas of interest. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, cozy lake house.

This property is in a great location- very close to all the activities. Steps from the lake, very nice park for the kiddos just the next street over. The house was cozy, very clean, plenty of space for our family of 5. Communication with the host was fantastic! We had everything we needed and then some. Thanks for a great stay!

If you’re looking for a serene escape that balances rustic charm with modern comfort, this 2‑bed, 1‑bath lake house is a true gem. Checkin instructions were provided prior to arrival. Kitchen had all the appliances, a very nice pantry, and a beautiful family dining area. Transportation was great, if you like to walk, it’s a fantastic short trip to downtown Port Clinton.In a nutshell: A delightful blend of charm, comfort, and low-key elegance—a lakeside escape made for memories.

Perfect getaway house!

This was the perfect house for a family getaway! It was clean, nicely decorated, close to numerous attractions (Put n Bay, Cedar Point, African Safari Wildlife Park, Aviation Museum, beach, etc...), and offered all of the essentials such as linens, toiletries, charcoal for the grill, firewood, beach towels, various pantry items...pretty much anything you can think of, they had it. It also had a small workout room, and a laundry room. The owners we super nice and answered all of my questions. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we're in the area!

As advertised!!!!

We enjoyed our not even 5 minute walk to the beach. Also about the same amount of time to walk around the block to the park/playground, which my son LOVED. Beautiful kitchen that had all we needed for our stay. Wish we could've enjoyed the porch and spacious backyard but rain stopped that 2 out of 3 nights. Overall it was perfect for what we needed. Host very responsive highly recommend staying.

The house is adorable! Looks even better than the pictures. Very clean, comfortable and near many things going on around the region. Full size kitchen with all needed supplies and the coffee bar was cute! Lovely private backyard with plenty of space to sit and relax Overall exceeded our expectations. Host was always a phone call or text away making sure we were ok w/o being overbearing. Will definitely keep this home on our list to book when in the area.

Perfect rental for our Sisters Getaway!!!!!

My 2 sisters and I stayed here for a Sisters Getaway and this cute little rental was perfect in every way! There is so much to do and see close by, or even a short drive, and just a short walk to the beach. The home was very clean, cozy and had everything we needed. We had a small crisis during our stay. We accidentally locked ourselves out while having our morning coffee on the deck. The host, Nicole, was so great to quickly respond and rescue us. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your lovely rental. We would absolutely stay her again!!

Great location

We walked to the public beach, the adorable playground, the Jet Express, and downtown Port Clinton several times. Our boys 9,11, and 13 were fine to walk to all of those places. Walking places (and looking at the water the entire along the way) rather than driving was a huge plus for my family. We drove ten minutes to Marblehead area for a fishing charter and about 12 minutes to East Harbor for another charter on another day. We took the Jet Express to Put in Bay and had a great time exploring. We loved being able to walk everywhere except for the two charter trips we did. My boys had the best time and were amazed with how great the fishing was! Nicole was extremely responsive and a wonderful host!
