Great Place!

My family and I Really enjoyed our stay at this rustic, friendly, spacious cottage. Everything we needed was provided, and the home owner was very Gracious in their communication with us. Lake Erie Beach was a short walk from this house, which was a big plus. Thanks for sharing your summer home with us.

Great location and cozy house!

I stayed here with cousins while visiting our nearby family for the 4th of July. Our host was extremely thoughtful in communicating everything we needed for our stay! Check in was smooth, and the location was perfect for our needs - and on a quiet street. The listing is very accurate and was as expected. The home is not renovated, but it was clean and cozy. Worked great for us!

Comfortable place!

Our stay was comfortable; however, from the pictures we thought we were right on the lake; that was a little disappointing. I was looking forward to catching some wonderful sunsets. We had a 15 minute walk to the beach. We also had about a two mile drive to Evangola State Beach which was wonderful

I'm so sorry you were not happy with the location. On the site I provide a link to show exactly where the property is on a map and I state very clearly that it is 2 block walk to the beach in the description. In addition, the picture I included of Point Breeze Beach states that it is 2 blocks from the property.

Peaceful Lake Stay

Very peaceful adult-type getaway. Nice area with fire pit. Home has spacious living space with tiny, well furnished kitchen. Very quiet street within 2 min. drive of Lake Erie Beach (sandy beach). Within 5 min. drive of 2 other beaches, including Engola State Park (has the best sunsets), and good restaurants. We loved Aunt Millie's the very best. The home was like a big hug from Grandma while there. We are looking forward to visiting again soon.

comfortable get away

My husband and I had a lovely time at this house. It was as advertised and quite charming. Our lab enjoyed swimming in the lake almost every day. We spent some nice times with my family around the firepit, and we had a couple spare rooms where they could stay and avoid a long drive home. All in all a wonderful time. Thanks!!

Quiet, quaint, homey as advertised

This property was as advertised. It is a family vacation home that is also let out to other guests. All the basics are provided in a very homey atmosphere. Guests with small children should know that the bedrooms are not near each other. The yard is lovely if a bit overgrown and expansive. We loved watching a new creature visit us each morning off the deck including groundhog chipmunk squirrel turtle and rabbit. The location is easy to find, close to several beaches, and easy to get back out for outings.

Plenty of space excellent location

Quick easy walk to a great little beach. My family and our dogs loved it. Two beach bars, one had some great live music we could hear from the yard but we walked down to the beach with the dogs to enjoy. Not on the water but you're trading that view for extra space and privacy. Comfortable beds, plenty of space for family to share a meal and watch a movie. This is obviously a space used by families and for me, staying with kids and dogs, it feels relaxing. The upstairs bed room is large - comfortably accommodated 2 large dog crates while leaving plenty of space - and the ensuite bathroom clean and roomy. Kitchen is serviceable but small. We had fantastic wings and pizza from Marias. The Toasted Hog had great burritos and tacos. Connors hot dogs was a hit for a quick lunch. And the food at Aunt Millies was really good - but oh man the baked goods are amazing!

Cozy, nostalgic and relaxing

Snowmaggon hit the area right before our stay, but everything was perfect. The house was exactly as described and very nostalgic and a mix of both my grandparents hones from growing up in the area. The location us perfectly located, everything we needed at the home, and traveling with our pups. Only wish we could enjoy some of the outdoor activities as the gardens and ponds look amazing! But so thankful we had a well dug out parking space,! So appreciative for that effort! (I remember and absolutely do not miss the freak lake effect storms and the amount of snow that accumulates so quickly!) The owners kept in touch to keep us informed of the storm and accommodations. Loved being able to walk the pups around the neighborhood, they enjoyed some snow, and still had every comfort to relax.

Adorable house with lots of character

This house has so much character. The moment I walked in I felt at home. The house has such a personal feeling to it, it was clean, quiet and close to everything I needed. The owner is very sweet and allowed me to bring my two dogs with me, they had a blast in the doggie yard. I am very greatful that we found this property and such a great price. Thank you so much!!!

Great place to stay

The property host was kind enough to let us stay at the property for about two weeks while we searched for housing and employment due to a move out of state, along with a pet cat. The house was extremely cozy and comfortable, and the host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend booking a stay here!

Loved, Love's Cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The house was perfect for us, close enough to Lake Erie Beach so we walked there several times and enjoyed beautiful sunsets with dinner. Our 2 little dogs loved exploring the fenced in yard around the ponds when they weren't swimming in the lake, which we enjoyed too. Took several rides to Evangola State Park, which is a short drive. Everything in the house was comfortable and practical, for all of us, and everywhere we went was easily accessible by car. Enjoyed reading about Evans Angola too. We are already looking forward to coming back next year!

Great location! Like staying at grandma’s house!

The property was just as described in the listing: It’s an older home with older furnishings. Some cobwebs here and there, but it was charming and comfortable and had everything we needed. The owner was incredibly helpful with tips and information. She is a prompt and kind communicator. It was fantastic not having to bring along cooking supplies (plenty of dishes, pots, utensils, etc), towels, sheets, etc. It really helped us minimize our packing. My dog loved the fenced-in area. My kids loved the wifi access and roku tv. We all loved the easy walk to the beach. But the best part was the central location for all the things we wanted to do on our vacation. Little over an hour to Niagara Falls. Little over an hour to Panama Rocks (awesome hike for the whole family with really cool rock formations). 30-40 minutes to zoo, museums, and great food in Buffalo. It was a trip we will not forget!
