    The view is absolutely stunning. The beds are comfortable. The shower is nice and large. The hot tub was clean and hot! The host gave great restaurant recommendations upon request. All in all, a great weekend at the lake! We were there for a swim meet at the Spire Academy and it was a quick and easy 15 min. drive to get to the competition. We visited in March/ off season. I’m sure this place is even more fun in the summer.

    The booking process was seamless. Communication was easy. The cottage was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. Coffee was provided which was an unexpected bonus. The view of the lake was absolutely beautiful and we spent most of our time in the hot tub. Though there are houses on each side, the back yard still offered plenty of privacy. We were in close proximity of all of the wineries. We will definitely be back.

    The location of the property and the rental itself were just the ticket. The interior of the home was clean, plenty of towels, kitchen essentials and the favorite space was the outdoor patio!!

    We enjoyed four nights of relaxing time together. We enjoyed the peaceful view from the hot tub each night. We planned to use the grill but due to the extreme heat (heat dome) we used the oven/stove top instead without any issue. The air conditioning units worked like champs and we stayed super comfortable. The bedrooms were comfortable and there were plenty of places to charge devices throughout the house. This was a perfect location (just 2 hours from home!) that afforded us time together. Thank you!

    This well-maintained cottage on the Lake Erie shore has a spanning lake view and all the amenities for a relaxing “escape to the lake.” The cottage was spotless upon arrival and had everything my husband, college daughter & I needed for our 3-day stay. We strolled the GOTL strip, which was quiet since everything really opens up AFTER the first week of June, and enjoyed lazy afternoons sunning ourselves in the warm lake breeze. We enjoyed fire pit evenings & quiet morning coffee on the deck. The cottage has comfortable beds, plenty of towels (a rarity) and good water pressure in the shower. It’s obvious the owners/managers take good care of the property & prompt care of guests. Mike was responsive & friendly with our questions. Plan to return again!

    Wow! This is such a perfect property. The cliff edge curves in such a way that when looking out the window or sitting in your hot tub, you feel like you’re completely alone on the lake. Despite how quiet and private the location feels, you can still catch a ride down to the strip or have food delivered. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook and the rooms were impeccably clean. The couches were more comfortable than most rentals and made an evening playing board games quite enjoyable when the rain was coming down. We will definitely be staying here again! Well worth the price!

    The views from the house are amazing. Even though it’s windy right by the lake, sitting in the hot tub and watching the sunset is perfection. This house was the perfect size for our family of four. Our little ones (3 and 7) had a blast running around the spacious yard. We rented this house for a little peace and relaxation and it surpassed our expectations!

    My friend and I wanted a low-key, nature filled getaway by the lake and this was the perfect place to do it. The lakefront views are phenomenal! We built fires while overlooking the lake and also enjoyed the hot tub. The best part of our stay was the two bald eagles that perched right above us in the tree on the property. What a sight! We felt like we hung out with them all day and watched them hunt along the lake. We saw herons and ducks and seagulls galore! The sunset was remarkable and a perfect way to enter into the evening while lighting a nice fire. The convenient store down the road is so close and came in such great handy. We got plenty of snacks and firewood to keep us content while we stayed. The home was very clean and cozy, couldn’t ask for more. We look forward to coming back for another lake stay. Thank you so much for sharing and providing us with this treasure of an estate.

    This is a magnificent property! You are right on the lake so gorgeous views. If you like walking in the morning, go east. There are tons of views of the lake because they cannot build many homes due to the ravine. We were about 1 mile outside of Geneva on the Lake, on the east side. There was a shuttle taking us to and from town. We booked a winery tour through the Geneva State Park Lodge. Plus, the hot tub was a nice bonus. We would definitely come back to stay!

    This was our honeymoon week. We opted for a quiet serene get away, and we are so glad we chose this home. It was clean, comfy, and had everything we needed. Mike even left us some firewood. The view was amazing and the hot tub was awesome! We have no complaints however a few things that could be improved... The $500 security hold, not cool to tie up travelers funds while they're vacationing. The grill worked but was shotty. I'd suggest adding overhead porch coverage at least to a small area. Lastly a few USB connections would be nice.

    A few friends decided to book a little get away for some golf. We found this house because of the location and it has a hot tub! No other property offered this. What I can say is that the pictures don’t do it justice. The views from the house and porch are amazing. It provided the perfect spot to enjoy coffee in the morning as well as a great chance to have some wine and watch the sunset. It was nice and close to everything and the place was clean and stocked with the necessities. Mike communicates via text on everything which made any questions easy.
