About this property

BRAND NEW !!!!! GORGEOUS 3 BEDROOM LAKEFRONT IN VERMILION

Lovely, three-bedroom home in the lakefront community of Vermilion Ohio, which is absolutely beautiful. All knotty pine, open airy floor plan with lots of windows, a very large first floor master bedroom with updated new master bath, a large open living room, a first floor office, a gorgeous lakefront kitchen, half bath down brand new full bath up, with additional large upstairs bedrooms. There is a large deck facing the lakefront, a large front porch, and a fenced back yard. Our home is a charming, cozy and immaculate vacation home that will accommodate up to six people.

​Located in Vermilion, Ohio, our home is located in the historical lakefront neighborhood of Vermilion on the Lake. Down the street from our home is a large neighborhood playground and park (SHOWSE PARK) for the kids, with a neighborhood beach, basket ball court, tennis court, a soccer field and a kayak launch. A local YMCA is within walking distance for your early morning workouts.

​So spend a day at Cedar Point and then head off to the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame and visit the many sites of Cleveland (USS Mather, the USS Cod submarine, the many nightclubs in the Flats by the Cuyahoga River, the Science Museum, or catch an Indians game). The next day just sit on the deck or porch with a book, go to the neighborhood beach, or take a trip into downtown Vermilion. And always - just hang around and watch the sun set. The combinations and possibilities are endless.

This enchanting little town has always been a seaside community with a New England style atmosphere. This is the kind of town that still has a working soda fountain, a town square and summer concerts on the green. People here actually sit on their front porches on a summer evening. Rated by Readers Choice Awards as one of the top seaside vacation towns in the US, Vermilion is the crowning jewel of the south shore of Lake Erie. From quaint shops to fine dining, the arts, entertainment and unmatched festivities, Vermilion truly has it all.

The Vermilion River, which flows into Lake Erie, provides for marina facilities with more than 1,000 boat slips and ramps for easy access to the Lake, earning Vermilion the title of the “Largest Small Boat Harbour on the Great Lakes.” Public docks are within walking distance of multiple attractions - shops, restaurants, and a variety of art galleries.

Located close to Cedar Point, Great Wolf Lodge, Kalahari Water Park, Sports Arena, Lake Erie Islands, Lakeview Park, Huron, Sandusky, the local wineries, and the wonderful City of Cleveland, and the Cleveland Clinic. For up-to-date events and programs offered for this month and for the summer, please visit: www.vermilion@allinonewebsites.net.

****A couple of disclosures – remember - this is a house abutting Lake Erie. It has a ten foot drop off. While a waterfront, there is no direct beach or water access. There is a beach down the street at Shows Park but it may be impacted by high water levels. Never fear - Vermilion maintains lots of other wonderful close by beaches.

First of all this is a beautiful place to stay. The area is close to a park and if you like to walk or jog, it can't be beat. Showse Park is close to most cottages.There is one bedroom downstairs with a connected bathroom. Two bedrooms are upstairs and a bathroom. If anyone is staying upstairs, make sure you bring a blow dryer because there is only one downstairs. Also, the bedroom to the right as you're going upstairs should have room darkening blinds because the neighbor next door has a miniature light house that is on all night and lights around the house that are on all night long.They have a nice sitting room downstairs if you need privacy if you need to work or read a book. Nice open concept when you walk in, living room and kitchen, dining room. Nice view of the lake. No access to a beach or the lake. Downstairs is a pool table and bumper pool table. About a five-minute drive to town. All in all, this is a beautiful place to stay, and we would stay here again. Excellent communication with the owner.

Amazing views!

This home on the lake was simply spectacular! The host provided us with breakfast and coffee and the check in process was a breeze. Lake views in all 3 bedrooms and the dining room/ kitchen. Can’t say enough about how beautiful the house and lake views were. Cherished memories were made. I definitely will be interested in staying here again.

Erie Lakefront Home

We had a wonderful time at this lakefront home. The updates were very well done and although we never cooked or baked, we did see what all they had to offer and the kitchen was abundantly stocked for whatever you wanted to make. The host even provided a tasty pastry for our first breakfast along with coffee and half and half.

Cozy and peaceful getaway

We loved our time at this property. It’s the perfect combination of being cozy while also having all the amenities. Out on the rear deck, the lake stretches out to the to the horizon, and inside the rooms are fresh and the open floor plan gives lake views out the large windows. The local grocery store is packed with all the essentials including a deli, and the main area of vermillion itself is less than 5 minutes away. Everything we hoped, highly recommended!

Everything we had hoped for!

My family’s experience staying at Kate’s house in Vermillion was top-notch. The location is great: a few minutes drive into town in a nice neighborhood for evening walks to Showse Park. The back yard deck is a beautiful hang-out spot, right on Lake Erie. Kate reached us the day before arrival and provided all info (key location, wi fi code etc.) in a clear message and was easily reachable if needed. This house was immaculately clean. So many personal supplies were provided like shampoo, soap, abundant bath towels, as well as coffee, filters, and a day-one morning breakfast pastry to get us started. The beds / pillows / bedding were high-quality and super comfortable for a luxurious vacation feel. Very well stocked kitchen has all the tools to prepare family dinner. Clearly the hosts take great pride in creating an enjoyable experience in their home and on their property. We loved our time in Vermilion. We went kayaking on the Vermilion river (West River Paddling Co. is close by), went to lovely restaurants and shops (Chez Francois, the Wine Vault, Poppin Around, Brewed Awakenings and more) and also enjoyed cooking-in some nights, staying up late talking and drinking wine on the deck. We will definitely be back!

This home has everything you need for a wonderful lakefront stay. Located in a quiet neighborhood just a few minutes' drive from downtown Vermillion, the lake views were extraordinary. All of the bedrooms as well as the dining room have expansive views of Lake Erie, and the deck is perfect for relaxing while listening to the waves and watching boats and birds (we saw two bald eagles!). There’s no lake access from the house, but there are several nearby parks with nice—and dog-friendly—beaches. The house itself is as exceptional as the views. The beds are extremely comfortable, the kitchen is well-equipped, and the wifi is fast and reliable. Kate was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had. We will absolutely choose to stay here again when we return to Vermilion!

Large rooms, well stocked kitchen, plenty of linens and paper products, even some raisin cinnamon bread and butter with coffee waiting. Many home improvements and updates, but furniture has been well used. Beds are comfortable, but be aware there are no window coverings in upstairs bedrooms or kitchen windows that face the water. Owners were responsive to concerns and questions. Overall rating of experience is 8/10. Street repairs are ongoing with early morning noise also.

The pictures don't lie!

For the past 45 years or so we have been vacationing in Maine and loving it. We looked for somewhere closer to home this year not wanting to do the long drive and my daughter suggested along Lake Erie. The pictures of this cottage looked so inviting and the description of the area seemed exactly what we wanted. Kate hits it out of the ballpark with this house. Yes, it was close to home but on top of that the cottage is just like home - she supplied everything we needed ( loved the coffee and breakfast bread etc., she left for the first morning ), the furnishings are lovely, so comfortable - especially the beds. We ended up spending most of our time on the deck ,reading, looking out over the Lake , drinking cups of tea (and occasionally wine !) We did take a quick drive into Vermilion and loved the shops and restaurants. Everything here was so convenient with grocery stores and places to eat so close by. .There is also door-dash and grubhub if needed. As my daughter left to drive home she said 'This is the best place ever!" I have to agree.

Great house for a cozy family holiday

We stayed over Thanksgiving while visiting with our youngest college student who attends school nearby. The well stocked kitchen had everything we needed to cook a great family meal! We loved cozying up on the L couch for movies in the evening and using the big kitchen table for board games. Having the bumper and regular pool tables in the comfortable basement kept us occupied despite freezing temperatures. The lake is gorgeous and can be enjoyed from several big windows in the house. We enjoyed a quick and cold walk to the nearby park to dip our fingers in the water and that was about the only time we spent outdoors as it was quite windy and we are soft southerners now. Plenty of room, good bedding, abundant towels - we really had everything we needed to just cozy up and spend time with our college student children. Nearby grocery was well stocked and the TeKila Tex Mex restaurant just a couple blocks away has good take out
