Nothing “fancy”, but we have updated the paint and flooring for the 2023 season, and have also added a gorgeous 55" Wall Mounted 4K Tv to the area! Watch TV and relax with a drink @ the Grill!

A nice area to enjoy a relaxing afternoon or evening in Port Clinton, Ohio (with plenty of seating for your guests).

This house was perfect for our little family. The house was clean and had a little bit of everything. The host was quick to repond and even checked in to see if we needed more supplies. We would definitely stay here again.

Great little getaway
We had a great stay at this property in Port Clinton. The location was only a block and a half from the water. The house was very clean and well kept. We had plenty of room to sleep eight people. The garage was an awesome addition to the home which allowed the adults to have some time to themselves. The owner, Steve was very nice and communicated very well with me throughout the entire check-in process. We were able to spend Saturday at Put-in-Bay and take the jet Express to the island and back. The only thing that was a small issue and inconvenience was that the property only had one bathroom for eight people. However, that would definitely not ever stop us from renting this home again. Like I said it was a mild inconvenience. We had a great little weekend and I would highly recommend this little getaway..

Great spot for a fishing trip
Myself and 3 buddies came up for a multi-day fishing trip. This is a great location in close proximity to the lake. It's clean, nicely furnished and we spent most of our time in the finished garage playing cards. Definitely recommend.

Such a great house!
This property has everything we needed for our weekend stay. The house was so clean, decorated beautifully and just felt like home. Kitchen had what we needed to cook our meals and the coffee bar was excellent for those must have caffeine times. The owners spared no expense on the beds. They were comfortable and the pillows were big and fluffy. There is a grill and corn hole boards available outside that we took advantage of too! Inside there are games, and even a dart board. All in all, our family of 6 is so happy we had the opportunity to stay in this home!
