This property made our stay in Sandusky so much better than a crowded hotel with the amazing backyard oasis that’s only shared with their other property although we lucked out and had it all to ourselves for our stay. The hosts were amazing and accommodating. Very easy check in process. Definitely intend on staying here again. BONUS they have the cutest friendliest little dogs who will keep you the best company if you don’t mind

Buoy House is a true gem of a place to stay! The owners have thought of everything you need to just relax and enjoy the space. The backyard is a beautiful oasis! We loved the hot tub, and especially the pool! There’s a park just down the street, on the lake, that you can view the gorgeous sunsets over the water. It was a great trip, easy check in and out! Highly recommend!!

Did not use the pool as pool season was over. Looked like a fun pool to use in the summer. Backyard was all set up for your summer activities. We went to Cedar Point for Halloweekend. This place is very conveniently located to Cedar Point, gas and food. Spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

Convenient and Spacious

The property was conveniently located near downtown Sandusky and the Great Wolf Lodge. Our family of 4 had plenty of space and the open concept made it ideal for the littles to run around. The hosts were easy to contact and responsive to our messages.
