The Steele Mansion is a really special spot. I love its history and its genesis: it has its roots in the city's foundations and is linked with Lake Erie College across the street. Eventually it got sold, went into rentals, then vacancy. The owners have lovingly restored it from a shell to a gorgeous, pristine and comfortable place to stay.

This was a wonderful experience. The mansion has been completely gutted and redone after a fire almost destroyed it. The rooms are all furnished with period furniture and every need is anticipated! This has the advantage of old country charm and upgraded construction. The people who own it and their staff couldn’t be nicer.
