All inclusive resort like home for your family

This is the most amazing property that has every amenity you could ever imagine. Truly made cooking preparation simple with all of the resources that were provided. The openness of the floor plan truly gave space for all to gather and have their own privacy. This house is the perfect gathering place for family and friends. I would definitely book again.

This house is fun! It has a pool table, a pinball machine, a poker table, and a piano keyboard. It has a first-class theater room with a candy counter. There is outdoor seating for 20 with a large grill. It is super clean with soft linens. It has a well-stocked commercial kitchen. Each room is uniquely decorated-much of the decor honors the old telephone building that it is. For 4 days, our family, ages 1 year old to 70, stayed here, at times wandering into downtown Sandusky, or by Lake Erie, or riding our bikes. But mostly we enjoyed being in the house, playing games, and enjoying all the amenities, which include Brio trains, books and toys for kids, throw blankets in baskets, K-cups, lots of pantry items from spices to crock pots. We have such great memories from here. Everyone would come back!

This is one of the most well-stocked places we have stayed in, going so far as to provide make up remover and a room of kids' toys! The owners are clearly extremely thoughtful. I greatly appreciated that every room was clean, and we loved the theater room with complentary concession stand! My family and I loved all of the showers. The beds also had the softest sheets! My minor complaints are the check-in and checkout times. The owner was clear it takes a lot of time to get such a large space clean. We left home early for our 7 hour drive to avoid traffic only to spend 3 hours trying to entertain ourselves before we could enter, thankfully a little earlier than the official check-in time. For many of the places we've stayed in, if we are given the codes to the house, that means we can enter, but I'm happy I asked before we entered here as there was a fee for entering early. The 10 am checkout time was a bit challenging for those of us with toddlers. To be fair, the check-in and checkout times are consistent with those of most hotels, making this a minor complaint. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Fantastic!

Our family of 23 fit perfectly in this space. Excellent space to spend time together, cook, dine, watch movies, and get some good rest. We had infants at 1 year old, toddlers, teens, and adults and there was something for everyone. Parks in walking distance and beaches a short drive. We can’t wait to come back!

Christmas Family Weekend

Many hosts want a 5-Star review, but few offer 5-Star accommodations. This is not one of those properties. Everything exceeded expectation from the property itself to the interaction with the host. We booked a family Christmas weekend / birthday celebration for my mom’s 80th. We had a wonderful time. The home was wonderfully decorated for Christmas And accommodated our 23 guests with ease. Can’t say enough about the experience. If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate to book.

I can’t even begin to say how perfect this house was for a big group, it had absolutely everything we needed in such a good location. Everyone was so impressed I came home and I can’t stop talking about how big this place is. The kitchen is perfect along with the table allowing everyone to eat comfortably. Check in and check out was easy and the host was very easy to communicate with. Highly highly highly recommend.

Leadership Retreat Weekend

We used the house as a work retreat weekend for our office leaders and it was a massive hit with everyone. This house is by far the most unique rental I have ever stayed in. It comfortably fit our large group with a huge, beautiful common area on the first floor and bedrooms that allowed everyone to have their own space. The game room and movie theater were the cherry on top. The experience definitely exceeded our group's expectations!

Senior Trip

This property was absolutely perfect! The owners have thought of everything and have it available for your use. We stayed for our boys senior trip. They had a great time in the game room and media room. There was a ton of room. The pictures of this place don’t do it justice - the house is full of character and charm! It’s big enough that everyone had their own space but it was still very homey. I would highly recommend staying in this house if you have a large group coming to Sandusky

It was unanimous, a perfect weekend in the perfect space.

Our family of 32 ranging from 7 months to 82 just enjoyed the most incredible weekend. This property is immaculate and leaves you wanting for nothing more, except time. Everyone marveled at the layout, the delightful decorating and all of the space. It was absolutely perfect with the huge commons area, large kitchen with EVERYTHING, separate conversation spaces, beds enough for everyone, and then coming together to share our meals at the long table made the weekend even more amazing. We loved watching the big game in the theater room (while munching on popcorn and candy) and spent countless hours in the game room. Thank you for creating such a fabulous space. We can’t wait to do it all over again!

Our family enjoyed every second in this spacious location… that had ALL the amenities and so many fun and interesting “finds” throughout the home. The history of the area and location were especially charming. This was a 10 out of 10 stay! PS… the kitchen was so big we were able to have a “cook-off”… :)

The place was Huge and large enough for 23 adults plus 9 children. It was a 4 day, 3 generation reunion. The location provided lots of options for excursions. The house had a huge home theater that was perfect for a presentation we did. To top it off, the kitchen was huge and extremely well-stocked with staples, condiments, dishes and pots and pans and industrial appliances. The place was clean and the house rules were short and sweet. I couldn’t have chosen a more perfect venue for our reunion.

Magnificent transformation of a business property into a spectacular event/Vrbo vacation home. Everything imaginable in creative, industrial, practical and reimagined space that our 4 families thoroughly enjoyed. Professional cook’s kitchen with every chef’s need. Big hit was the movie studio and game room. We didn’t have time to make use of the patio space. Walked to ice cream, take out and splash pad/playground. Easy fun getaway.

This house was an amazing location for our family reunion. There was plenty of room for socializing, including big rooms for time together and bedrooms for everyone to sleep well without a lot of noise from room to room. The kitchen was spectacular and made the cousin who loves to cook for a crowd very happy! I wish it had been cooler so that we could have enjoyed the patio outside more of the time than we did. We are choosing our next reunion time and may well come back here!

Sandusky Mansion

This stay was for a family(14 of us) to get together to celebrate my daughter's fiftieth birthday This home was exceptional: the kitchen was immense with every utensil and appliance you would need to cook any meal, the theater room was a big hit with plenty of variety of games and videos with overstuffed chairs, the game room was large with numerous games and even a candy bar, the bedrooms (14) were all nicely decorated and comfortable, the long dining table was great for meals and playing games, and finally the outdoor patio was great for eating outside and enjoying the fire pit. Also, the house was conveniently located close to a winery, escape rooms, beach (Huron) and of course Cedar Point.

Family reunion in Sandusky

We had a fantastic time at this Sandusky mansion! The place was large enough for our group of 27. The kitchen was fully stocked, as advertised, for preparing meals for our entire group and there was plenty of room for us all to eat together. The kids (and kids at heart) loved the game room and theater. Parents appreciated the high chairs and kids' toys. Compared to other rentals, the beds were very comfortable. And the location was perfect - we could easily walk to the waterfront or get ice cream or coffee - and we had a fun day at the waterpark nearby. We didn't use the outdoor space very much because it was hot, but it was also quite nice. Check in and check out were a breeze. Would definitely recommend this property to others with large groups looking for a place to gather and find something for everyone.
