Weekend Wedding Trip

Property was very clean and welcoming. Beds were comfortable, and kitchen was well stocked with essentials. Property owners were readily available. The location can't be beat, with so many attractions and within walking distance. The kids loved walking down to the pickleball courts. Walnut beach was a quick walk too.

great eclipse experience

We stayed here with extended family and had a wonderful time. The beach park is just around the corner and restaurants are in walking distance. It was a great location to see the 2024 eclipse. Communication with the hosts was especially clear and helpful. This rental was a great experience all around!

"Sisters by Choice" yearly wine trip.

Beautiful property and surrounding areas. The Inn was amazing and had high quality products throughout. It was one of the nicest places we have stayed within the15 years we have been taking these trips. The only issue for others would be the stairs to the second level if you have existing problems with stairs. We had a fantastic time at this property!

We’re so glad that your group enjoyed the Walnut Beach Inn, and thank you for the compliments on our grand old house! The stairway to the second floor does have a turn towards the top that some people might not be used to, luckily there is a bedroom and full bathroom on the first floor for those that wish to avoid steps. We hope you come back in the future and have another great stay!!!

Sisters’ Getaway

Our group of 7 sisters were very comfortable in your lovely home. Because we don’t spend time together as often as we used to we were looking for a place big enough and not too far away to just be together and TALK. Each day we found somewhere fun to explore in Ashtabula or nearby. We had a wonderful stay.

Cute Vacation Home

We had a nice family weekend in this clean rental! The beach is beautiful! The back yard was smaller than we had thought based on the pictures but we spent most of our time at the beach anyways! There is a very steep hill to get down to the beach so we ended up driving to the beach with the young kids rather than walking. Overall, we had a very nice stay!

Bachelorette Party

We stayed here for my daughter’s bachelorette party. The house was very clean. The bunk beds are not made for adults.

While adults would probably be more comfortable in the other beds in the home, the bunk beds all have standard size twin mattresses. The Walnut Beach Inn also has a king size bed, two queen size beds and a single twin bed.

Worked perfect

Size of the house was perfect. Beds and house were clean. Distance to SPIRE was a little far, but very close to beach and downtown. Overall it was nice and served the purpose for what we needed.

Great girls weekend at WBI

Seven of us stayed very comfortably at the house. It was clean, spacious and well stocked. The owners thought of just about everything. I now forget the one or two things that we could not find, but they were very minor. The patio & fire pit were great to enjoy the view of the lake and there was PLENTY of wood. The beach is just down the hill. We would definitely recommend this property to friends & family.

Excellent house and location!

This house was wonderful to stay in, plenty of room for everyone and so close to Walnut Beach! We loved having the option to use the washer/dryer and 2 full bathrooms. The house was very clean and comfortable to stay in and the kitchen was well stocked with what you need for a few meals. It was nice having the garbage in the large shed so you don't have to worry about animals getting in to anything. The owners provide a nice wagon for the beach if needed and a few bicycles to enjoy the town! We didn't get to ride them this time but definitely a nice option. There is a grocery store, a McDonalds and a gas station within minutes of the house which is very convenient. A 15 minute drive to Geneva on the Lake along Lake Road which has beautiful views during your drive! excellent location, highly recommend!

We had a lovely time! The house was clean, and the host was very responsive-- there was a major storm while we were there and some big branches came down, the host came immediately to cut and remove all the debris. Not anyone's fault, but it's worth noting, maps showing the proximity to the beach are a bit deceiving, there ia a huge hill and a big water treatment facility between the house and the beach, so what looks like open space on the map is a bit more of a barrier to feeling near the water than you'd think. That said, if you take the road, it's only about a 5 minute walk down to Walnut Beach, and there's ample parking if you drive, so not bad at all. Also a very short walk to downtown, where there are cute shops and restaurants. All in all, a great stay!
