Great little house

House is nothing fancy but perfect for a quick getaway for a reasonable price. House was clean, host responsive, everything you need for few days away. Bar down the street (Lagoon Saloon) is great can sit by the water enjoy some good food and drinks. Highly recommend, will be coming back at some point.,

Family trip

It was a pleasure staying at the waterfront cottage. Outstanding communication with the owner, Barb. The cottage was clean and the kitchen was well-equipped. It was a quiet neighborhood and good location not too far from Cedar Point and the ferry to Put-in-Bay.

Nice property by the lake. All the beds looked the same size. One was suppose to be queen. Bigger TV would have been nice. Great location and neighbors and property manager was nice. Looking forward to staying there again.

Best rental we have had to date

First let me say the Host was TOP NOTCH!! Excellent communication from the time of booking until we go home to make sure our stay was A+++. The cottage was freshly renovated and in new condition, super clean. Tastefully renovated and stocked with all the essentials so we did not need to bring anything. within minutes from the lagoon saloon which was a fantastic place to unwind at the end of the day, and they have excellent pizza! close to the highway to get to Sandusky for our trip. lots of really cool little towns close by that we found tiny restaurants that we will definitely visit again. We will definitely be booking this cottage again for years to come. Thank you again for a great trip experience.
