Family Vacation 2025

We had a great time!! Mother Nature wasn’t good to us, but that just gave us more time to venture out and see more of Sandusky as well as enjoy family quality time and family game time!! There’s a lot of indoor games and outdoor recreation activities to keep everyone busy!! Everyday we saw eagles. It was incredible!! The kitchen had everything we needed also!!! I’d definitely go back as well as suggest this place to others!!

We had a wonderful stay. Amazingly quick response when the microwave quit working. It was replaced immediately. Beautiful view and the sunsets were amazing. A little misleading in the bedroom situation. We had 14 adults and 1 couple ended up on a pull out couch, but we made it work.

Basketballl tournament

The house is beautiful and we had the best experience! Already looking to book again it was so nice. Very clean, right on the water, and the host Robert is exceptionally good. He responded quickly to just one question I had and I appreciate all of his helpfulness.

Best house on the lake

We all loved the house and wanted to spend most of our time there. We grilled, watched movies, and had lots of quality conversation.

One of our best

Our three generational family has been staying in VRBO’s since it was created and we all agreed this was one of our best. Robert has just about everything we needed in the kitchen except a note tablet and clips for chips. There were lots of everything. We always need two refrigerators so that was nice along with some empty cabinets for us to put our bags and bags of groceries in. The beds were comfortable so with two bad backs in the family, that was also appreciated. We had very few issues but when we did Robert was quick to reply. I recommend this house with five stars.

Great Start of Summer weekend

We all loved the house and even had guests that were impressed. The small decorative boating items made the property very unique. Fully stocked kitchen, even with a variety of spices and cooking items. We would definitely rent again. One small complaint, although it did not affect us, but the game room and the cots for sleeping should not be considered a bedroom for sleeping. It was very musty smelling and only small children would fit on the cots and it might be too scary for them to sleep in there at night.

Well stocked, clean and beautiful location

Property was extremely well stocked with supplies in kitchen, plenty of towels for bath, tons of glassware in bar, etc. Very clean everywhere! Two washer/dryers came in handy for our large group. Game room, watercraft: everything you could need. Owner was very responsive to any inquiry and was even kind enough to loan us a parking pass for Cedar Point! Location was lovely with access to bay plus Lake Erie beach access, although, sadly, the latter was not accessible to all (have to climb up rocks then climb down a precarious ladder to get to beach). The dredge parked next door was an eyesore but doubt much that could be done about that. Too hot and humid to use fire pits but a nice large outdoor area for that. Neighborhood was generally quiet. Home was decorated in a nautical theme with lots of detailed and authentic touches. The one thing missing in the house was full length mirrors, though!

Comfortable home with many conveniences

We had 14 people in our group and we all enjoyed our stay. The rooms and beds were very comfortable and the dining area accommodated all of us. Everything was well stocked with many thoughtful details. Although the weather wasn’t great, it didn’t diminish how much fun we had just hanging out at the house.
