Seasonal Lake Conditions Lake Erie is a natural body of water and conditions can change throughout the summer. For a few weeks each year, algae blooms may occur, which can temporarily affect swimming and, at times, create an unpleasant outdoor smell.
The shoreline and lakebed are a natural mix of sand and rock, and conditions can change with weather and water levels. We strongly recommend wearing water shoes when entering the lake.
This is a lake-wide, seasonal occurrence beyond our control, and we share this so you can plan your stay with clear expectations.
A Few Helpful Notes - The home uses a cistern and septic system — please use water mindfully. - As with any lakefront stay, insects may be present indoors and outdoors. - Please follow the simple hot tub care guidelines provided.
Pets We welcome one well-behaved dog. Please clean up after pets, keep them off furniture and on our property.
Safety Water, shoreline access, and use of SUP boards and the kayak are enjoyed at your own risk. Children must be supervised at all times outdoors.
Several life jackets and water shoes are provided, however guests may prefer to bring their own to ensure proper fit and comfort.
The property sits approximately 15 feet above the shoreline, and some areas are steep. Access to the water is via a ramp, which can be steep for some and slippery when wet. We recommend moving carefully and wearing water shoes when entering the lake.
The property is not fenced on the road side, children and pets should be supervised at all times.
An exterior security device monitors the driveway only.

Relaxing Spring Getaway
Last minute getaway for my Birthday. Can’t beat the view from the living room, bedroom and hot tub no matter what type of weather. Loved the cozy fireplace to take the chill out of the spring air. I highly recommend opening the kitchen windows to hear all the frogs and hundreds of birds in the green space across the road. So peaceful. Bring your binoculars to check out the different water fowl. Wood ducks, mergansers and buffleheads plus some adorable baby geese. Great communication and we had everything we needed to feel right at home.

Perfect Writing Retreat
Our stay was idyllic. The pics were amazing and the reality lived up to the hype. It was clean, comfortable, and beautiful. We wrote all day, relaxed in the hot tub during sunsets, and walked along the shore. The owners were easy to contact thought we didn’t need to often because they made everything simple and straightforward. Can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful view of Lake Erie
We enjoyed our stay here. The only con was there was no access except to climb down big rocks to the water. The water also had algae on the shore. We could’ve drove to a nearby beach. House was well kept and owners were helpful

Our Mini Getaway not too far from home
Our experience with renting this property was flawless! As soon as we booked this cozy cottage our host Natalie reached out several times to give us suggestions of things to do in the area, great directions on a beautiful scenic route. We had a couple requests of our own that were important to us, she searched them out for us sending detailed maps.
When we got settled into the cottage it was spotless clean and absolutely beautiful and cozy. Each room had such unique accent decorations like the cozy throws, pretty pictures, little side table and fluffy stool which made the cottage so homey and comfortable. I loved the hot tub, i enjoyed a glass of wine sitting in it on a night listening to the waves hit the rocks. My husband loved the water and spent many hours outside just taking in the beautiful view. We would go back to this cottage again as we loved it so much.
Thank you Nat and Nick for sharing your cottage and all the new memories we made.

Nat and Nicks getaway was exactly as described! The attention to detail and care that went into creating a calm escape from the city went over and above. We had absolutely everything we needed. Watching the sunset from the hot tub and walking up to the sounds of the waves made this one of the places we have stayed. We will definitely be back
