Peaceful location. Could be cleaner.
Beautiful spot to watch the sunset! We enjoyed the kayaks, paddle board and pedal boat. Kids enjoyed the arcade. We explored and enjoyed nearby Luna Pier and Monroe. Pictures are outdated and the upkeep of the property leaves something to be desired. Once we cleaned out cobwebs and the spiders in every corner we managed to enjoy our stay.

Owner was very responsive to my messages, answered questions and tried to accommodate my concerns.
If the weather hadn't been mediocre, this would be a great place to stay. Plenty of space. Dock was sturdy. View was fantastic. It is a little old, with some updates. Great value for the price.
My family had a fantastic time during our stay at the property. We loved sitting outside at the picnic table, lounging on the floating dock, and exploring the lake in the kayaks.
This property was unique, located on Swan Creek, we now know why its called such.... beautiful swans right out the back door! My kis enjoyed the Kayaks and fishing. It was a cool drive as you wind your way back to the house with the houses with well kept lawns. More of a place to stay on a fishing trip, but I dont have any complaints. We made good memories, grilled some good food,slept well and a warm shower. Amazing view of lake Erie! We gave 4 stars, a touch cleaner and id do 5. Enjoyed our stay, host was prompt and polite! Thanks Steven!
Would recommend to others. We just slept here after working and it did the trick.

Dirty, unmaintained, rundown property
This is by far the dirtiest, unmaintained, VRBO property I've stayed at in the last 10 years. I thought VRBO had standards on the properties they list. If they do, this one slipped thru the cracks. I'm so glad the wives did not come on this trip.

Fish camp not Lake house
Let’s be clear, this is a fishing camp. If you have children who want to play on the floor or couch, this isn’t for you. The photos were, to us, misleading. The couch and carpet are dirty. The house smelled of various types of smoke. No towels in the downstairs bathroom. Rat poison on a shelf behind curtains. The windows and door had dirt and cobwebs in and on them. We left within an hour and paid for a hotel. We tent camp so we aren’t opposed to roughing it but we rented a house on a lake and we expected it to be as pictured.
Solid choice for a cool, calm getaway. A few aspects of the house aren't as cosmetically pleasing as expected, but nothing that affected the quality of the trip. Far enough out to not feel crowded, but still had access for delivery. Would rent again
