Top Marblehead Lighthouse State Park Hotel Reviews

Cottage Custom built by owner plus 4 person golf cart included

10/10 Excellent

"The home was comfortable and clean. The host communicated with us with 5 minutes of each message we sent with questions. We were glad the place was pet friendly! Would recommend as we love Lakeside. We are a bit sad that the costs to visit Lakeside have risen so much in the 35 years we've been going. But it's a great place for a family vacation."

Unobstructed Lake Erie Views — Sunrise from the Covered Front Porch

10/10 Excellent

"We spent a weekend on the property. It was wonderful. The property was well appointed and there was nothing that we needed. The property was spotless and the view outstanding. Growing up, I spent my summers at Cedar Point (the amusement park) and we had wonderful views of the "Point." I would definitely stay there again."

Cheeky Cherry Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"Don't walk, but run to the Cheeky Cherry! What a lovely home for our family of six to stay for a long weekend. Mark has thought of everything you might possibly need for cooking. Thanks for sharing your lovely home."

10/10 Excellent

"Walter was very easy to communicate with. The house had a nice outdoor area and enclosed porch. The place fit our needs perfectly."

Private second-floor cottage nestled between Lakeside and Marblehead, sleeps 6!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great weekend family getaway. The host was very kind and quick to communicate anything we might need before we even asked. We checked in around 10pm so the motion lights were appreciated to keep us safe and to easily unpack. We enjoyed the outdoor space daily! Conveniently located to many activities. Wish we had more time as the area was fun to explore, and we could unwind at our accommodations to recharge in the afternoon and we got great sleep at night. We traveled with a toddler and although it’s not a “baby proof” place (which we knew), there was plenty of space in the bigger bedroom for a pack and play, books and toys were available, and we appreciated the host being so family friendly."

Spacious first-floor cottage nestled between Lakeside and Marblehead!

8/10 Good

"This is an incredibly beautiful home in a super cute and quaint neighborhood close to the lake. The pictures are totally accurate and it is actually even better in person! The home has everything that you will need including high chairs and a pack and play the golf cart is such a nice addition. There is plenty of space for large groups and my family had a wonderful time!"
