We had such a wonderful stay! The house on the lake was absolutely beautiful and full of character, with thoughtful details and small touches that made us feel right at home. Everything was very well maintained and it’s clear the owners take great pride in the property. We truly felt welcomed and enjoyed every moment of our time here. Highly recommend!

Property is nice and clean with all necessary tools for a family to enjoy their stay. This rating would be a 5 if the access to the lake was accurately portrayed and communicated. The pictures show access to the lake where there is no safe way for kids to access the lake.

Absolutely Perfect!

We rented this beautiful home for an impromptu weekend trip to celebrate our daughter’s 13th birthday with a few of her friends. It could not have been more perfect. The house was comfortable and so so clean. The view is absolutely stunning. But the best part was the wonderful owner! Communication was great and she went completely above and beyond to make sure that we had a wonderful stay and a memorable experience. Thank you so much and we will definitely be back!!

Swept Away Thanksgiving SNOW 2024

Where do I begin. The house is gorgeous well maintained and while I never met them personally Janelle was an amazing host. Very quick to respond and very helpful with all our questions. Erie experienced some major snow fall and the plows couldn’t get to the streets. But Janelle’s husband plowed the street to get us out! If you need a home in Erie I would definitely book this home. And the views of the lake drinking coffee were so relaxing

Family Celebration with Scenic Views and Exceptional Hospitality

Our weekend stay at Swept Away in Erie to celebrate my mom's birthday exceeded all expectations. Janelle was an outstanding host, ensuring every need was met in the beautifully decorated and spotless home. The views were breathtaking from nearly every corner, both inside and out. We loved our experience so much that we wasted no time and booked another stay for next summer!

A wonderful experience at Swept Away!

A wonderful weekend experience! There was great communication before check-in. There was lots of space in the house for our large family and there were beautiful views! The house had all the supplies we needed. The only thing we had difficulty with was the thermostat - we could not consistently get the house cool enough (for example, we woke up one morning and the thermostat temperature was set at 78 degrees.) Maybe this is programmed, but we often tried to turn down the thermostat to cool the house more. But this was a great house and we would definitely like to return again.
