Let me be the first to review this property. Four of us stayed there last fall while it was still under construction. Despite the fact that an addition was being added to the home, the place was incredibly clean. In our steelheading travels we have stayed at many places, some really nice, some not so nice. You can tell that the owners are proud of this place by the way they maintain it.
The four of us arrived and met one of the owners. John is a friendly guy who was more than eager to give us a walking tour of all fifty or so acres, with an emphasis on the best steelhead runs. We went back to house and readied of gear and went off to dinner. As we fished the next day, John was more than willing to take our calls and share stream flow information. Even though it was early in the season, we did catch a nice number of fresh fish.
As far as fishing lodging goes, this place is a winner. It has all the amenities you could ask for - cable, washer, dryer, full kitchen, grill, comfortable beds, clean linens, etc. This place is nice. You won't be afraid to bring your wife and kids. You could sleep a dozen in here. But let's face it, you came for the fish and fish they got. You can spend a weekend here on private water and only see the other fisherman in your party. When water conditions are right, double digit fish days can be the rule, not the exception.
There are more things to do here than fish for steelhead. There are a few local wineries, like Markko and Buccia. Sadly, it seems Tarsitano has closed and those wonderful meals are no more. There are also a dozen or more wineries 20 minutes to the west. Wildlife abounds here as well. Many birds, deer, turkey, and many bald eagles. There are some nice places to dine, including Biscotti's, Pizzi Café, and many others. Check out the Breakwall BBQ for great BBQ and burgers (Saturday only for burgers). And, a trip to Conneaut wouldn't be right without lunch at the White Turkey Drive In or a pizza and a pitcher at the Rainbow Lounge. Don't forget to stop in at Brandt's Orchard for some great cider donuts and to-die-for apple pies. And you can visit several covered bridges while you drive through some beautiful rural country.
This place is not only a great fishing destination, but would make for a nice romantic weekend, winery/covered bridge tour, or nice quiet getaway. I hate to give it such a strong review because you will no doubt want to stay here and I won't be able to book it myself.
