Lakefront location and view was great. The 4 wheeler raking the beach every morning was too loud and annoying.

Hidden gem

This is a great place if you want a quiet place to sit on a private beach to enjoy. There are several things to do not far away and plenty of restaurants in a short drive or if you like to walk.

Beachfront Resort

We had a wonderful stay at this beachfront resort in Port Clinton! From the moment I booked, the staff impressed me with their courteous service — they even called ahead to personally provide check-in details, which made the arrival process smooth and stress-free. The resort is right on the beach, and I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and well-maintained the beach area was. Access to the beach couldn’t have been easier — just steps away from my room, making it perfect for a morning stroll or an evening by the water. Our room was beautifully decorated with a fresh, modern touch, and the view of Lake Erie was absolutely stunning. Waking up to the lake view this morning was a highlight of the trip. Another big plus was the location. The resort is within walking distance to several local bars and night spots, so I was able to enjoy the nightlife without worrying about driving. Overall, this resort offered a relaxing and convenient getaway with thoughtful service, beautiful views, and a prime location. I’d definitely return!

The Hotel contacted me saying there would be a wedding on site. I'm familiar with that so no big deal. What was a big deal was the loud speaker blaring music and people yelling at the fire pit outside my room from 2:30-4:30 am. They woke up the whole family. So I called the hotel but nobody was working. In the morning they said I was supposed to call the Commodore their sister hotel. That would have been nice to know beforehand. I asked for a late checkout since we couldn't sleep, they gave us till noon.

Disliked: Amenities
There were only a few of us staying and a lot of rooms empty but people were put in a room upstairs from us so we could hear them all night long also my sister left her pillow so we called and asked if it could be mailed if we payed for the shipping but was told she would get charged an additional 15.00 for them to take it to get shipped. Where is the hospitality? 15.00 to take it to the post office the boxes are free. We were very dissappointed in that. Also they didnt have any ice.

Older but very quaint. Loved the decor and being right on the beach! Room was spacious and clean. On the down side, we came in about 7pm and we had to check in across the street at a different hotel, which took us a bit to figure out. There were no outside lights and walking up to the 2nd floor was tricky in the dark for 2 older adults. But I’d stay here again!
