Gorgeous home with everything you need and more. Steps away from the pool and tennis/pickleball courts. Clean and beautifully decorated. Love the kids bunk room and the kitchen was large and well equipped. Spent lots of time on the screened porch. Our host was very responsive and kind. So glad we found this place!

Lovely getaway in Lakeside/Marblehead

The house was excellent, so beautiful and well designed! A screened front porch to relax in, a wonderful kitchen and living room, the most awesome bunk room for the kids in our group and plenty of space for our family vacation. The house is a short walk to the water and town amenities (Lake side walking path, park, playground, pier and Pavilion, mini golf, and more); Very close to restaurants, the Kelley's Island Ferry and the beautiful Marblehead Lighthouse-- excellent area to spend time!

Just a couple of sisters and their families from Idaho and Wyoming who feel blessed to have found upside. It was clean, fun and family friendly. The bunk room and the kitchen were perfect and Trudi was amazing to work with. Quick responses and has thought of everything!

Awesome experience! Definitely a 5 out of 5! This cottage in Lakeside is so well-equipped and beautiful. We spent a lot of time on the spacious screened porch. The large table allowed all 15 of us to eat together. There were even many games for the kids to play. And of course Lakeside can’t be beat for the lake views, ice cream parlors, and playgrounds. We would stay here again!

Lakeside house

We had a great stay at the Upside Cottage. The house was perfect for the 11 of us. The design and open living areas were great for relaxing and hanging out together. It has a great porch and a garage that stored our paddleboards and kayaks. The place is as beautiful as the pictures indicate. Trudi is very responsive and helpful.

Loved it

Absolutely loved our stay at "The Upside" in Lakeside, Ohio! The bunk bed room was a hit with the kids, and the layout of the house was awesome. We spent countless hours on the big porch, and the bedrooms were amazing. Plus, the house was fully stocked with everything we needed. Only downside? It was so nice that no one wanted to leave!

Outstanding

Trudy and Kevin, Have a beautiful home. Their attention to detail was outstanding, every need of their guests are met. The house is supplied with anything a guest might need. Lots of equipment and activities to keep the kids busy. We were there on a rainy weekend and the kids were still very entertained! We have stayed at many VRBO properties and we would rate this home at the top! Wonderful vacation home!

Just a wonderful property!

The owners have created the perfect Lakeside home for a family getaway. Beautiful first flloor bedroom suite and three bedrooms upstairs including the most exquisite bunk room you've ever seen, complete with sleeping curtains and a"camp lantern" night light for each of the six beds! No detail missed when decorating and furnishing this home. 1/2 block to the big new pool complex, 3 min golf cart ride to beach, shuffleboard shopping. Great communication with friendly owners!
