We had a wonderful girls weekend, just me and my bestie! The condo was perfect...clean, equipped as promised, private, with a lake and pool view. Great communication, smooth check in and out! Walked to the ice cream place, yum! The pool, hot tub, and fire pit areas were great. People very welcoming and friendly. Great sunset views! Private beach. Would highly recommend this property and condo and would definitely stay there again!!
Peaceful, quiet, nice view, clean, pleasant. Owner was communicative. Easy check-in/check-out.
Vey Nice & Comfortable, Everything Was Convenient, Nice View
My wife and i loved it. Great views of lake erie. The condo was very nice. Definitely recommend to others looking to seek adventure and beauty
We absolutely loved our stay! The view from this condo is amazing! It was the perfect place to relax!
Simple, clean and cozy. I was a bit surprised that it was on the third floor, but the view was worth climbing the steps. For being in busy Port Clinton, the pool and beach area was so quiet and private. I loved being able to be at the pool, but still hear the waves and watch the sunset. This is really a gem! The grounds are stunning and the staff were constantly cleaning, gardening and smiling. Lots of good food and activities near by.
It's ok for the price and proximity to the ferry. Spacious kitchen and living room. Feel safe that there's like a guard house. Place is quiet. Ample parking space. Nice balcony. Near the beach. Had an issue with the heater and somebody came in less than 10 min. Housekeeping needs to do better. Dirty dishes in the cabinet. Somebody put it there without checking. Linen closet needs tidying and hardly any linen, just comforters. Didn't bother to ask as we were staying only for 1 night. Good thing we brought extra bedsheets for the futon. No elevator and there are 3 floors. TV Remote & cable not working. Overall a 4 star. Disappointed with Put-in-bay though.
The construction on the condo next to us was awful! Dust everywhere, we could not enjoy the balcony. Very very noisy. The condo itself was fine, I had to clean it before unpacking or cooking.
The condo was just as listed! The community was very nice and close to everything!
The condo is ideal for a quick getaway. It had everything we needed and did not have to do much else but relax. The owners were very proactive with their communication and everything was easy to do. The AC unit is noisy at night but that is primarily due to its location in the bedroom. The traffic was a bit noisy while sitting on the patio but we just tuned it out. There is a nice view of the lake, and pool area. The complex itself is nice and well maintained. We liked watching the sunsets from the deck and sitting by the fire pit.
Condo was clean and well-maintained. Steps were a bit of a chore for older folks, but nothing we couldn't manage. The pool and lakeside area were the best we've ever experienced. Overall a beautiful place to stay!
Condo is located up a couple flights of stairs from the carport. Staircase lighting did not come on until well after dusk, making trips up the stairs (after watching the beautiful sunsets) dicey. Unit lacks central air conditioning but is adequately cooled by a wall unit in the bedroom and several available fans in the unit. Kitchen was well equipped and functional, but kitchen and bathroom were not thoroughly cleaned prior to our arrival. Dryer was handy for drying beach gear after using the pool. There is very minimal beach on-site but the pool area and deck are very nice. The mattress in the bedroom is very soft (I believe this was noted in other reviews) and would be uncomfortable for those preferring a firm or very firm mattress. Bathroom supplies were limited to towels and linens, extra toilet paper and a bottle of body wash. Overall experience was very good, but not exceptional.
While this property might be good for younger people, as people in our seventies with mobility issues, the three flights of stairs to the condo were very challenging. Also, in large print, the description said it was air conditioned, but as we found out after arrival and reading the small print in the body of the email, there was only a window air conditioner in the bedroom. If you want any kind of air in the rest of the condo, you have to put a fan in the doorway of the bedroom to blow air out into the living area. It was in the 90's while we were there and the air hadn't been turned on prior to our arrival, so it was extremely hot. Also, the fan needed cleaned very badly. The bathroom was probably our worst issue. The commode was very difficult to flush. We had to take the lid off and lift up on the handle because it was very hard to flush and we were afraid we were going to break it. There were brown spots on the throw rug in the bathroom. It was either mud or feces. I don't know which, but it should have been cleaned before our arrival. The tvs are very small by today's standards. They're flat screens, but very small. We didn't watch them because of how small they were. We left after one night and to the owner's credit, we were offered a replacement night in the Fall as compensation, but we just couldn't navigate all those stairs again so we declined. VRBO did refund one night's payment back to us, which they didn't have to do, so we are grateful. In short, this place would be okay for young couples who have no mobility issues and if traveling in any season except summer.
Great views of the sunset from the shared common areas near pool. This particular unit is on the second floor, with a couple sets of steps to climb. Condo is nice, well stocked. Owner very on top of making sure the stay is a good one. Our only downside was I did not realize the AC was a wall unit in the bedroom. It is quite loud. Also there are railroad tracks close and whistle blows during the night often. We ended up using pull out couch (not as comfortable as the bed), and fans to sleep at night. The condo is located in a good area and close to lots of great places to eat. If we hadn't needed AC, (90 degrees during our stay) the place would have been wonderful.
The location was great. The property was clean and the view from the balcony was awesome. However, we had trouble sleeping in the bedroom due to the unbearably noisy airconditioner. I had to rate this property at a 3 due to the noisy airconditioner that ruined our vacation. I won't book this property again.
