Jo’s Hideaway was a fantastic place to stay! The property was spotless, beautifully decorated, and just the right size for two people, while still offering extra space with the sleeper sofa. Lisa was wonderful to work with and provided excellent communication before and during our stay to ensure we had everything we needed.We especially appreciated all the thoughtful touches, including plenty of towels, a well-stocked kitchen, coffee and creamer, insulated tumblers for our daily adventures, hard-surface floors and designated parking. Access to the pool during the summer months and the available boat slip are also great features, although we didn’t use them. We would gladly stay here again!

Absolutely Amazing Stay!

My boyfriend and I rented Jo's Hideaway for ourselves and Jo's Escape for his children and friends. We've stayed at various places throughout Green Cove and this was by far the best vacation I've ever had. The condo's were perfect, clean, cozy and well stocked. The boat dock isn't a far walk and was great for our 19' bayliner. The host is friendly, quick to respond and just wonderful to work with.

Perfect Getaway

We had a great time! The property had everything we needed and extras many don’t have like laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent and paper products. We brought our boat and so appreciated having a dock. I would definitely recommend this condo for others.

My family and I took a weekend fishing trip and stayed here at Jo's Hideaway. It was perfect, just enough space for the four of us. It was very clean and comfy. The use of the boat dock was a huge bonus for us. Lisa was very very accommodating and very quick to respond!!! We will definitely be back!!!

Such a beautiful space! Spending our mornings on the balcony watching the birds in the marsh and boats coming in/out of Lake Erie was a great way to start the day. Cozy and comfortable space; fantastic layout and decor. The location was a perfect drive to/from Lakeside-Marblehead and Island access as well as the natural spaces that we explored.

We had a great stay. The property was clean, quiet, and comfortable. It had all the little things we needed. The pool was cleaned every evening. We were there for Camp Perry, it took 8 minutes to get to the gate. Very convenient for those 6am squadding times.

Awesome

Been staying in Lisa’s condos now for about 4years and can’t think of another place I wish to stay when going to the lake to visit. If there’s a problem she’s on it, always asking that everything is fine and if you need anything to let her know. Highly recommend

Amazing condo /above and beyond owner

Let's just start off with condo is amazing came in ,super clean super cozy decor is absolutely fitting, Definitely home away from home kind of feel. Added bonus to the condo is the two trumpeter swans that my little one actually got to hand feed the amazing scenery that the marsh has to offer swimmingg area was really nice. If I was able to give the owner Lisa 10 Stars I would !She goes above and beyond not only being personable and inviting but her property is immaculate. Would highly recommend. Thanks again Lisa we loved our stay at Jo's hideaway.
