A great overnight stay! This place was just as advertised. Very clean, cozy and decorated nicely. Each bedroom with its own large screen TV. A welcome snack basket and some k-cup coffees was a nice touch. In addition, the location was nice and community appeared safe. We'd definitely stay there again.

This place was in a good location. I loved the little touches like comfortable couch blankets and bags of chips. The couch was big enough for four adults and two big kids. The only issue is how thin the walls are. I could hear everything going on in the kids room and the other adults room

Family Vacation

This was the perfect VRBO for our family vacation to Lake Erie. The rental was close to the town and ferry service for us to explore the islands. It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We enjoyed the porch view for our morning coffee and evening meals. We would definitely rent it again if in the area.

Great

We had a great time. Cute place. Very clean and tidy. Organized. Only downside was the wifi didn’t work super well with our phones, but it really wasn’t a huge deal.

We were absolutely thrilled with our stay at this property! Everything felt fresh, clean, and thoughtfully maintained. The house was well-stocked with essentials like toilet paper and paper towels, which was a great touch.We stayed for 10 days on a work trip, and it was hands down miles better than any of the local hotels or motels. The peaceful canal-side location was perfect for unwinding during our downtime, and the setting added a really relaxing vibe to our trip.Communication with the host was exceptional—fast, clear, and friendly. The detailed check-in instructions made our arrival and departure completely seamless.We’d definitely consider renting this place again in the future. Highly recommended!

Charter

We came up for a walleye charter. Wasn’t aware of it being slow for walleye . Also had two different charters canceled due to weather conditions. Overall we still had a good time and a great stay. Would definitely come back
