We had a quiet and relaxing stay at the Summer City cabin. The weather was nice so we were able to sit on the porch, use the grill, fire pit, and visit the community's lake access. The cabin had everything we needed for our stay and the hosts were really friendly and accommodating. They provide an informative booklet of the cabin and the local area and they were quick to respond to our questions. We especially liked the pictures they have that show the different updates they have made to the cabin over the years. The location of the cabin is conveniently located to several parks with varying beach and Lake Erie access and not too far from Presque Isle and the beach in Conneaut Ohio. We enjoyed our stay and will certainly consider staying again.

This was our first vacation to Lake Erie. Lynn met us at the cabin and answered any questions we had about local attractions. We were mainly in the area to visit Presque Isle state park. The cabin was great. Very clean, firepit, gas grill, games, movies etc and we were within walking distance of Lake Erie. If we are in the area again we will definitely rent this cabin.

Pleasant stay

The cabin was adorable, with a beautiful morning view of the lake. We enjoyed drinking our morning coffee on the swing facing the lake, and the fire pit was a nice touch we made sure to put to use with our kids and roasting hotdogs for dinner. Would book again

Lots of charm!

This little neighborhood has so much charm! We loved the evenings watching the sunset over the lake. The cabin is cozy, clean, and equipped with everything needed to enjoy a vacation. It’s not a far drive to all the amenities of Erie, but there is lots to do closer to the cabin too.

Liz, we are so glad you had a chance to stay at the cabin. You’re correct, the cabin has so much to offer even tho it’s small-it’s just enough. And the cabin is “perched” above the community slightly to give you the private feeling without being secluded. We are so glad you found us and hopefully we will see you again for another vacation.

Perfect lake cabin!

Perfect lake cabin, the owners thought of everthing. Anything we needed was there. All the electric switches were labled.We walked to the lake and saw a beautiful sunset. Visited the Erie Zoo and toured Presque Isle. In Conneaut we toured several historic covered bridges.

Great stay!

The cabin was exactly as advertised and very clean, the area was quiet and neighbors very friendly. The AC worked great which was appreciated during some very warm days during our stay. Large property with comfortable outdoor spaces. Close walk to the lake for awesome sunset views. Saw numerous deer and fawns, rabbits and woodchucks! Kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils, etc. The hosts were extremely accommodating and friendly. Met them upon check-in and they walked us through cabin specifics. Highly recommend this rental!

Relaxing Getaway from Pittsburgh

Lynn and Mac have created a lovely, warm, newly renovated space. It was the perfect relaxing getaway from Pittsburgh where we could celebrate my son’s 6th birthday. They had everything we needed. Lynn communicated beforehand to give me directions since the GPS location isn’t to the exact house location. We enjoyed hanging out in Erie for a couple of days, which was about 30 min away. Grateful to have this place to connect with family and de-stress.

Great Getaway

Since we are first timers using VRBO I wasn’t sure of what to expect. We’ll, everyone exceeded our expectations. Our experience was a 10+! Great little cabin tucked away from the hustle bustle of Erie but with- in driving distance to whatever you want to do. So quiet and cozy! The hosts communicated with us along the way and we’re more than attentive to our needs. Very enjoyable 1st family vacation for us. Memorable moments made here!

Money Well Spent

We walked in to just purchase a Stacyc bike for our son and ended up leaving with the Stacyc AND a Kawasaki 110 R. We have been riding them since we got home and enjoyed the experience and the willingness to see all they could do for us and we are always big on supporting local and will continue to support Carns.

Cabin Time

My husband grew up in Erie and spent a lot of time on Presque Isle. Staying in a cabin on Lake Erie seemed like a perfect way to ease into this experience from his past. And it was! The cabin was fantastic! So comfortable, clean and beautifully made. We spent each morning and each sunset on the patio, porch swing, or down by the boat dock. During the day, we took the half-hour ride into Erie or Presque Isle. Lynn & Mac were fantastic hosts, and even came over when we first arrived to let us know the mayflies flying around were NOT mosquitoes and we’re harmless—which we were grateful to learn!

Great Little Cabin

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. Its a cute little cabin with a wonderful outdoor shower as an added bonus. The cabin is minutes from the Ohio border and you can see the lake from the back deck. There are a lot of great things to do in the area. We did the Erie Zoo, Football Hall of Fame, Presque Isle, and the Classic Car Museum. Lynn came to greet us soon after we unpacked. She gave a lot of great recommendations for activities and places to eat in the area. She was very responsive to all of our questions. She lives in the area as well. We felt very comfortable knowing she was nearby if we needed her. Ask Lynn about her about her Eagle pictures!

The perfect getaway

The cabin was just as described, maybe even better. We loved everything about it. The hosts were super nice and greeted us as soon as we got there. Check in was a breeze and in seconds we were exploring the cabin and the lake. You can see the lake from the swing behind the cabin and it is a short 2 minute walk down the hill to see and experience it all. My wife and I loved sitting in the swing and just enjoying the view. The back patio was perfect for having our breakfast every morning. The beds were very comfy and the cabin was always the perfect temperature. We had a nice bonfire and made s'mores at night and also enjoyed playing Yahtzee in the cabin. They have shelves full of games to choose from. The area is secluded (which we loved) but also only a 10-20 minute drive to shopping, restaurants and even wineries in Ohio. We loved everything about the cabin and the location and look forward to returning as soon as we can.

Bruce & Cheryl, we loved hosted you as guests! Your experiences are our reward as hosts. We love offering to you adventures in life that you ordinarily do not experience. For example: the outdoor shower with hot running water! One of the hi-lites of country living. We hope you return next year, we’ll be thinking of some new experiences for you-perhaps a black bear or two 🐻

6/10 Okay

Had a nice, relaxing stay but its small

Cottage was just as described. It's old and small but due to the size of the bedrooms could only comfortably sleep a couple and maybe a small child. We had to use the other bedroom for our suitcase as the room with the double bed had no room for one. The bed is literally touching 3 of the 4 walls with only room to stand between the 4th wall and bed. Bathroom was also tight with only a 32-34" shower stall but was fine for us. No TV, radio or alarm clock so I would suggest bringing your own. We brought our own portable DVD player and watched movies. The game shelf was tailored to families with games for more than 2 players. As described in the ad you can see the lake but you are not on it. The lake access is really just a community boat dock which was a tad disappointing. Yard is a great size and our dogs loved it but it's only semi-private as the cottage is in the middle of the housing community and there seemed to always be cars driving by. The location was perfect! 20 minutes from Conneaut OH, 20 minutes from Walnut Creek and 30 minutes from Presque Isle. Tons of local farmers markets and wineries and restaurants to choose from. Overall we had a nice stay but felt for the amenities, size of the cottage and the price we paid we could have found other options for similar price right on the lake with direct lake/beach access.

Elaine, Since you have been here 2 years ago, the cottage has been totally renovated. The ceilings are vaulted cedar with all new hickory floors and hickory cabinets. the bedrooms have all new beds with a star show in each room. The bathroom has a vaulted cedar ceiling with a heat lamp for a sauna for a relaxing shower. WiFi is in with chrome cast for movies as well as a DVD player. Central air helps the cabin feel cozy cool even during the hot august months. Its also been turned in to a log cabin whereas it was before a cottage. Many changes were added to make it a totally new experience.

The cabin is perched up on a little hill that offers privacy as well as some nice views of the lake. The inside was cozy, well thought out, and packed with little details that really stood out. There was plenty to do. We made some s’mores by the fire, played plenty of the board games that are there, and enjoyed walking down to the lake. The hosts were wonderful and offered plenty of suggestions for things to do while we were there. We look forward to booking this cabin again next year!
