The home was so convenient to downtown Sandusky, the marina and sailing club. We felt so safe in this location and enjoyed spending early mornings and evenings sitting on the covered front porch. We had six adults and three children, 6, 8, and 10. We had plenty of room and the beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again. Everyone enjoyed seeing the lights of Cedar Point at the end of the street. The garage boat slip was an added bonus.

Great Time
The boat house was very nice. It was located in very nice and quiet area. We brought a boat and loved the convenience of docking it on sight. We really enjoyed our stay, the owner was awesome. We are already planning to return next year.
