Beautiful property
We found this property perfect for 3 couples, and plenty of room to share meals and play board games. The outside firepit was wonderful, and the deck, sitting areas and grill were terrific. The hot tub had been turned off so was cold and could not use. The privacy fence shown in the online photos had been removed. We had an issue with one of the propane tanks, and the owner and the property manager were very responsive and made sure everything was in good condition. Couldn't ask for better.

Pleased.
House is well kept and clean. Has everything you would need to have a nice vacation. Easy access to the water and plenty around to keep you busy.
We had 10 folks and it was a bit cramped for that number if you were planning to spend a lot of time at the house. But we were rarely there so it worked fine for us.
Would not hesitate to book again.

Fishing on Lake Erie
This property was the best choice for my family and I for our first time up to fish on the lake! Cleanliness was spectacular and the backyard was perfect for evenings with the kids and relaxing under the pergola with the adults. Highly recommend for sure. Quiet neighborhood and wonderful communication. Hope to be back next year!

Great place!
Very nice place! Clean and well maintained and matched description and pictures perfectly. Great backyard for a family to relax. There is a train crossing near by, so if you are a light sleeper you might want to bring some ear plugs. We will book again next time we are up.
