Great home with a fantastic location. All the rooms are super comfortable and there’s plenty of room check in and check out was super easy ! Definitely a great home.
This is our second summer staying here and we just absolutely love it! Best location and everything you need at the house. We’ll be coming back for round 3 for sure!
The home is as listed, in a quiet part of Huron. Owner is extremely prompt with communication from check in to out. Parking limited for larger multiple vehicles but doable.
The location is perfect with a nice view of the lake. All the extras that were included such as zip-lock bags, beach towels, beach chairs, spices etc. were great.
There was plenty of space for our family and a nice location. It features exceptionally soft and comfortable beds, an extra towels, and a fully furnished kitchen. I would return to this place to stay.
This was probably my favorite vacation ever these host had everything imaginable. There was not one thing that they forgot. It was absolutely perfect. This is definitely a place that I will recommend to friends and family..
Accurate description of house, well equipped for our Thanksgiving feast! We enjoyed the location to Lake Erie and proximity to playground, as well for grandkids. Would stay again!
The house was very much like listing. Enjoyed 3 nights with family of 9. Plenty of space and location was great.Ruthanne was very quick to respond to any questions we had. Definitely recommend staying here.Thank you for sharing your house with us.The Hall Family
This place was very nice and very beautiful... it was clean and big enough for all the family we had staying. The host was very nice and answeres all questions etc. We will definitely be back
This place had everything we needed for a family trip to Cedar Point. Located close to the park with a beautiful view of the lake. The kids loved the 3rd floor loft space.
The house on Shore Drive was perfect for us! We could easily get to the ferry for Put-in-Bay and to Cedar Point. Being right at the park, the little beach and the pier gave us plenty of space when we had downtime at the house. The house had all the amenities we could need and was comfortable for our group. It was really great!
Overall, this was a great place to stay. Great view of Lake Erie, playground, fun house for kids with 3 levels. Lots of room for large gatherings. Able to step outside and play, swim, or fish without having to drive. Nickel Plate Beach nearby was very nice for a bigger beach. Short drive to or from Cedar Point. We had a great time! The only complaint was that the outside trash containers were full upon our arrival. But the owner got back to us quickly.
This was our second stay at this house. We love it so much. So comfortable for our party of 12, so convenient to local attractions. Fishing and swimming without getting in the car!
We were in town for NexStar dance National competition and chose this property due to its proximity to the Kalahari resort. The house had everything we needed and more. The beds were comfortable and the close Lake views were great. There is a bonus space on an upper level that was great for our girls to escape too. We would not hesitate to book this property again.
The Shore House is an older home but furnished with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The porches were incredibly comfortable. The loft rooms were exciting for our five children (12 and under) to play in but the spiral staircase was a little too hard for them to maneuver at night for restrooms so we kept them on the second floor, much to their disappointment. Beautiful park across the road with playground completed the week.
I have stayed at several properties in the past and this was one of my favorites. The house was well stocked and offered a lot of extras. I loved the front porch overlooking the lake. The neighbors were friendly and the location was perfect. We were very close to Cedar Point and many other restaurants and activities. The owners were very responsive and checked in to make sure we had everything that we needed.
The house was even more than we expected. It was so comfortable!
We enjoyed the porch overlooking the park and Lake Erie. There were so many comfortable areas in which to visit or read. We definitely will come again.
One suggestion would be to put a railing at the entrances. Other than that, everything was perfect!
We absolutely loved this property. Impressed with all the dishes and cooking pots and pans available to use. Beds were comfortable. Loved the
Nautical decor. Our only issue was the weather was cool and damp, not a fault of the house at all.
We will definitely consider this location when we vacation again.
It was very relaxing. The house was nice except the front porch leaking when it rained and you couldn't sit outside plus the patio leaked and couldn't grill out if it was raining.
there was plenty of room for the living space. Would go back again. Very close to a lot of things to do.
This house was perfect for our trip. We had 6 adults and 4 children and the house gave use plenty of room and sleeping options. Ruthann was more than helpful and got back VERY quick with any questions i had. The only downside is the parking, as it is limited but we made it work. Would recommend this house to any friend and if we are ever in the area again will definitely have this one on the top of my list.
a couple of things need repaired: the window and screen on lower front door kept falling out, from the first time we opened it. Great that all of the towels are provided, as well as a fully stocked kitchen. The house has lots of room, 3 bathrooms, lots of places for our family of 10 to go to. great location. front porch is great, but fire table did not work,
