Everything was absolutely incredible for our wedding we hosted here. The house was perfect and just a really cool place to host a wedding. The communication with the property managers was always efficient and kind. I cannot thank Dayle and David enough for wonderful time we had. I cannot recommend this home enough and would for sure book with them again!
We had the best time. Everything about this home was warm and inviting.The host was prompt when answering any questions...my grand children had a blast being together. There's nothing more precious than hearing laughter. The bedrooms were perfect for our family size.Thank you again and we'll be back!
This home was incredible and exactly what we had hoped for. We had kids and grandkids along with us and everyone found the home inviting and beautiful. This is an annual weekend for our family and really hope to be able to use this location again in the future.
We had a great week at this property. Very big and plenty of bedrooms for larger groups. Games and ping pong kept the kids busy. Great location near Cedar Point and Sandusky. Would definitely stay again.
The home is uniquely charming! The host was warm and very welcoming. The home is large. It provided togetherness but also the opportunity for alone time. We had a wonderful time!
Not really kid friendly there are alot of stairs but that being said the 3 year old had lots of room to run around down stairs. We found everything we needed to make meals while we where there and it has a great dishwasher. Alwaysclean and the owners called me on the way there to explain where the keys were and that they were a phone call away. This was our second time staying here so it felt welcoming and familiar
Loved the property! We all really appreciated the vintage and quaintness of the house! Vintage and beautiful! It’s hard to find a house with 6 bedrooms to fit all of us and this one did the trick! All rooms were large and the bedrooms were huge! Definitely recommend!!
We were very comfortable and everything was as we expected from the pictures to our actual stay. We loves the house and the view was amazing we highly recommend
Family assembled for a long holiday weekend. This house is perfect for a gathering of adults and kids. The location is perfect and the amenities well-suited for a medium-sized group.
The house and property is amazingly beautiful! We really enjoyed our stay and will probably return in the future. The property manager Spencer was very accommodating and helpful. The only downside is there were not enough beds for 17 people. We purchased an air mattress and that fixed the problem for us.
Had a wonderful time with friends and family! Will be staying again most definitely.

Location is good. House’s size, feasibility, access and owners are very good. However, it is an old house and things tend to break. We experienced one of the two full bathrooms had an issue with water leakage. During a hot day, the A/C didn’t circulate properly. The kitchen had rotten egg smell when we checked in, but the owner credited us 200. That was nice. Overall, we enjoyed staying in the house.
There is so much to do for all ages. We had a great time. Beautiful views. Love that the park is close for the kids too. The owners are very responsive and helpful. We would love to stay there again.
