We love the location and the stay was great. The beds are comfortable and the pull out couch was helpful with the kids. Mark, the property owner, was attentive and very nice!
Great location, super clean! Check in isn’t bad, just had trouble with the code for a bit, but it’s gated and super safe and in a nice part of Sandusky. Mark was an excellent host, quick and easy to communicate with. We were in town for a VB tournament, Cedar Point and a day trip to PIB. Great location for our itinerary.
Beautiful condo with perfect views. Check in was so easy. Checking out was the easiest I have ever done. I was grateful for how safe I felt. The guys at the gate were so nice and helpful. Everything was perfect. My granddaughters and I enjoyed shopping, Cedar Point, and chilling in the condo. If you’re looking for a place to stay near Cedar Point, this is it. We loved how we could see the lights from the park while looking out the windows. Don’t forget to walk outside and watch the beautiful sunsets just steps from your door.
This is our third or fourth stay with this host. This time it was a different loft, but equally wonderful. We already have next year booked! Great, beautiful getaway! Would love to get an overnight in before next year. Very peaceful.
The loft was very clean and in a great location. A wonderful veiw of the lake from the main room and balcony. Pool and spa were very nice bonuses. Parking was convenient and private in gated area. The loft is near museums and places to eat. Mark was responsive and quickly answered our questions.
We greatly enjoyed our stay.
We decided to book this condo instead of a hotel. It was worth it for the price which would have been similar to booking two rooms and we saved money being able to cook.
The condo is very nice with an awesome view of the lake and you can also see Cedar Point across the lake. Of course driving to Cedar Point from here is very convenient.
Mark was great with all the details we needed for our stay.
I would definitely stay here again.
The property was very nice. Easy parking and great communication with the owner. The condo was very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed the pool everyday. The bathrooms were nice and the beds very comfortable.
Walking distance to everything downtown Sandusky which was great. The views of the sunrise over Cedar Point did not get old.
Overall, a fantastic stay we’d recommend! Thank you.
We were in town for a baseball tournament, 2nd year in a row staying in this complex. Everyone is so friendly and beautiful condos. Mark was a great host!
If you're a group of adults visiting Sandusky (yes we were there for Cedar Point), this place is an excellent choice. The location is honestly perfect, right on the water, steps from the restaurants and nightlife. The view from the main room of the lake is great and we spent our mornings basking in the sunshine. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms big.The owner was super helpful (especially when I had some unrelated trouble) and even the guys manning the parking lot entrance were friendly.Highly recommend
Great condo! Super clean and perfect location! You can walk to downtown area with shops and food, or take a 10 minute drive to Cedar Point. Had everything we needed. Only suggestion would be a couple blankets for the pullout couch. Would definitely recommend.
The location was amazing and great view of the water. The pool was very nice and residents very friendly. Close walking distance to restaurants. Also went to Cedar Point and was a short drive since the ferry wasn’t running yet but is located right next to the ferry dock. The condo was very clean and comfortable we really enjoyed it!
Gorgeous. Excellent location! The view was amazing!
We came in town for a work event and to see family. The location was too cool. As we checked in, the Goodtimes 1 was pulling up, live music and all!
Will stay here again!
Stayed with group of older former teachers. Loved view, spacious condo.
Could not find fob for pool. not noted on any of instruction papers. Found it around corner from entrance door on our way out. That location really needs to be included on the pool instruction sheet.
The photos of condo showed an island with stools, which we had planned to use for our cocktail hour with snacks etc. Photos should be updated to reflect that the island is gone and a small table with chairs is there instead.
The two instruction sheets need to be updated and laminated. The condo is very nice, but is lacking in end tables or a coffee table etc.
Overall, we had a great time, but we just offer a few suggestions to improve the experience.
Mark’s Apartment at the Chesapeake Lofts was perfect for our family of four. The place was spotlessly clean and the location can’t be beat. Great views of Lake Erie and Cedar Point from the living room/terrace. Plenty of options for dining and drinks within walking distance from the apartment and Cedar Point is about a 10 minute drive away! We absolutely loved our trip to Sandusky and would highly recommend Mark’s place for your stay if visiting.
Ended up booking this instead of a park hotel, and so glad I did
Great location, lot of shops and restaurants within walking distance, and the pool was fantastic after a hot day at Cedar Point.
The residence was absolutely spotless and exactly as pictured online.
Thank you for such a fun stay!
(We didn't have any bedding for the sleeper sofa which we needed to use but luckily the kids had brought some sleeping bags.)
Nice space & clean! Felt very safe in the area. Worked well for family of 4. Enjoyed seeing the lake, pier, boats, and Cedar Point in background. Pool nice extra bonus.
