Second time staying here

We again came to stay here for the birding festival in Ohio. So quiet, cozy, and relaxing with sounds and breezes of Lake Erie out the window. All the amenities you could need and plenty that are a nice bonus. Walking distance to several good restaurants, and a super comfy bed at the end of our adventure filled days.

Very nice accommodations

Our host was helpful and communicative. The condo is a nice space, very clean, plenty of space, with a beautiful view of lake and close to many Port Clinton attractions. Our stay was off season, so many things were closed, but we can imagine that in season the condo would be ldeal to stay while visiting the islands at Lake Erie.
