Beautiful, small, lakefront cottage modestly decorated in nautical theme, overlooking the lake. This is a quiet family friendly cottage. The spectacular sunsets sold us on this home, and we enjoy the nearby area, too. Situated amongst other weekend get-away homes, this is a fabulous spot to relax on the deck overlooking the grassy hill leading down to the water and watch the waves rolling in, the Great Lakes ships passing by on the horizon.

This is also a lovely spot Ohio's beautifulFall season. The area is filled with fall foliage, remarkably tasty wineries with farm to table restaurants, covered bridges, bike trails, and local festivals.

Geneva-on-the-Lake has a 1950's shopping strip-lined with amusement halls, putt-putt golf, waterslides, shops, and restaurants. We enjoy visiting Geneva State Park with its lodge, beach and marina, the wineries in the area, covered bridges, antique shops in Ashtabula Harbor, and incredible views as you drive along the lake. An hour to Erie, Pennsylvania, and an hour to downtown Cleveland, the area remains quiet, not overly built and commercialized.

You can enjoy a full meal cooked in the ample kitchen (with full-size refrigerator and gas oven, plenty of kitchenware); cable tv in the living room with fireplace (fold-out couch for one person sleeping) with a sliding glass door leading to the deck overlooking Lake Erie. There is an enclosed porch with a cute tiki bar.

The master bedroom features a king-size bed and dresser. The second bedroom features a trundle with a twin mattress bed on top, and a twin mattress below, dresser storage, and Roku TV. The garage is used for storage is not available to guests.

Newly installed air conditioning August 2022. There are also ceiling fans in most rooms that work nicely with the lake breeze coming in for those days the AC is not needed.
Free wireless and a landline for local calls only are included with your stay.

Swimming is available at Walnut Public beach about five minute drive from the cottage. There is also a nice beach, swimming, and picnic areas at the Geneva State Park. We do not have a dock, however, boating is available at local marinas and Geneva State Park. We do not permit swimming or fishing at the cottage property.

    The home is clean, nice king size bed, trundle in small bedroom.and pull out love seat suitable for 1 adult or 2 small children. It would not be suitable for 2 adults. Adequate bedding and linen provided. Deck / patio is the best thing about this property! The view is wonderful and shaded by a big oak tree. Had a wonderful time. Close to Geneva strip. Home is stocked with essentials for cooking / clean up. Hand held shower could have better pressure , and slight inconvenience that the propertty has a private entrance blocked by a chain that has to be closed at all times. 1 parking spot in front of home and more parking close by.

    This cottage suited our needs quite well. It was centrally located to the area we explored (Fairport Harbor, Geneva winery region, and Ashtabula). The deck on the back gave a great view of Lake Erie with wonderful sunsets! We enjoyed the firepit to add to the evenings. The cottage was clean and neat. The host responded quickly to any questions we had. Overall it was a great experience and we would recommend renting here.

    This cottage is the perfect getaway spot for a relaxing girls weekend away. It was clean and the pictures accurately reflect the rooms. The only area that could be improved is the mattress for the twin bed. Perfect for kids but not as supportive nor soft as a 50 year old lady would prefer. The grill grates could definitely use a cleaning. We just decided not to grill. Instead we got pizza from Alessandro’s. This place was a recommendation from the host and spot on. We had dinner there Thursday night after arrival and saw other diners pizza. The deck and the views made the whole trip. Pictures of the sunset do not do it justice. We are already planning a return trip for next summer. Or maybe even sooner!!

    Wonderful Location with spectacular view of the water and sunsets. AC was refreshing as the temps were in the 90's. Beds were very comfortable. House and property is well maintained and kitchen had every thing we needed. The deck was large with seating for 8. Connie, was available at all times for questions or problems. She was so kind and helpful.

    This cottage brings it all , you get comfy surroundings and the greatest view you can imagine. The sound of waves coming in, the beautiful birds and playful squirrels in the big tree. It was like a full entertainment of nature happening around you. Relaxation is what to take away when you return home. Thank you for the treat and big thanks to Connie for helping with making the stay perfect

    The house is in a grassy area with a few other houses. The instructions to find it were ambiguous, saying once we got through the chain we had to drive over the grass to get to the house. We got there after dark which was our mistake. We had a street number but none of the houses had a visible street number. So we drove to several houses on the grass as there are no roads. We tried to call, but no answer. If the instructions had simply said “first house on the left after you get past the chain”, or a sketch, or a few traffic cones as barriers, the problem would have been avoided. Finally we found the house as a neighbor came over yelling that we drove over his grass. He said we ruined it and he’d called the police and we’ll pay for (although there was no evidence that we had done any damage). So the police showed up and the manager (Connie). The policeman said the guy wanted our insurance information, which we refused to give. The next day Connie, my wife and I met the elderly man. He was obviously confused, mixing us up with someone who had run into his retaining wall 3 weeks ago. I believe he wanted to soak us for his retaining wall, which we had nothing to do with us.Then he said “you’re lucky the police came, or I would have come after you with a shotgun“.The owner dismissed the incident as “he’s just a harmless 90 year old man, I don’t want problems with my neighors We were afraid. She told us to get out & cancelled our stay. The manager, Connie, though was supportive,

    This comfortable cottage sits atop a hill overlooking Lake Erie. We enjoyed absolutely beautiful sunsets, bald eagles flying by and the sounds of the waves while relaxing on the large deck. It was perfect place to unwind with many great wineries and restaurants close by. The property manager was accessible, friendly and very helpful. We look forward to coming back!
