Historic Edgewater Beach House - 6 bed 3.5 bath

hosts were incredibly responsive. fantastic home for an extended family.

What a wonderful piece of Cleveland history. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the house, it is an eclectic piece of history that is appointed with unique pieces of furniture and light fixtures throughout. It is perfectly located between downtown and some of the west side hot spots for dinner and drinks. Lots of cookware, all kinds of bedrooms and towels. They have all the basics covered and lots of little extras.

Every time I come back to this charming 1920s home near Edgewater Beach, we notice more thoughtful updates and renovations. On this visit, I loved the new trim colors on both the front and back porches—such a fresh, welcoming touch. The outdoor furniture was fun and inviting, and all the fall chrysanthemums really brought the porches to life.Inside, the third floor has been set up beautifully. With a desk, a futon, a double bed, and a twin. It felt cozy and practical.I also appreciated that the window air conditioning units were still in place—it was a warm day, and they kept everything comfortable. As always, the house was immaculately clean and wonderfully organized.This home just keeps getting better with every stay, and I can’t wait to come back again.

Fortunately, it was fairly cool while we were there. Many of the windows don't open, or don't have screens. The AC units reek of mildew. The windows themselves were filthy. Furnishings are old and tattered. The house itself has great potential and is in nice, upcoming area. 10 minute walk to the lake. I hope the owner fixes it up because it could be a fantastic property.

Susan is great at communicating and making sure we felt welcome during our stay.

Imagine a summer hideaway to host Alice in Wonderland and Gatsby--the Edgewater Bohemian Beach Clubhouse would be it!Just 5-min on foot from the soft sands of Lake Erie’s beaches, this house is a time-traveling art installation—equal parts Victorian, Boho, and whimsical fantasy.The entryway greets you with authentic gold wallpaper that gleams like a royal welcome. Each floor is its own curated world, complete with not one, not two, but THREE unique kitchens. The blue and white kitchen on the second floor was our favorite, crowned by a chandelier that belongs in an opera house but somehow feels right at home here.And then there’s the stained glass room, a kaleidoscope of light and color that felt like sitting inside a jewel box. We spent hours just soaking in the mood, reading, daydreaming, and admiring the environment.Every detail in the house is dripping with personality, history, and a magic. This is a place to be inspired. Bravo to the creator of this mad, beautiful masterpiece.

We were hoping for a 5-star stay, leading to a 5-star review. Sadly, that was not the case. Despite our host being nice, and accommodating, there were things that could not be remedied while the VRBO was occupied. They should have been taken care of prior to our stay. Some main issues:•Overwhelming, moldy, mildewy smell emanating from basement and mud room. Mushrooms were growing in basement walls. Tiles fell off the walls when walking down the stairs to wash towels.•Centipedes in 1st and 2nd floor bedrooms and bathrooms. •Dirty air-conditioning units with bug casings in window sills and dirty windows, dust under beds. Dirty pots and pans 1st floor.•Insufficient electrical to run all bedroom a/c units at the same time even when common area units were off. No hairdryers were used. Lights in 1st floor the kitchen went on and off when opening the refrigerator door. •Paint fragments blew around bonus room if fan was used. The host gave use of this room w/out charge, but once A/C blew a fuse, it went to triple digits and the space was unusable. Paint fragments from ceiling littered stairwell to 2nd floor.•There was active water damage on some ceilings. •Instead of ice cubes in the 1st floor freezer, there were full size paint brushes. Maybe used to paint over tiles in 1st floor bathroom?•We would not stay here again.•We did not ask for any compensation.The porch was nice. We made good use of our time together out there.

Fun historic house. Great location. We walked to the lake several times. Easy drive to downtown and rock and roll hall of fame.

Lots of room. Perfect for a group of friends getting together. Great communication with owner.

Love the house with easy access to the city and walking distance to the park and beach. The house was very warm and welcoming with awesome communication with Susan. Would highly recommend this house for a large group.

The house was perfect for our family gathering. Ample space to spread out if we needed to, and ample space to gather and share family stories!The weather was percect and we enjoyed sitting out on the porch.

Great location and wonderful spaces to have a large group gathering. We came in December to see some shows at the Beck Arts Center and eat great food at neighborhood places. The neighborhood was fantastic and the house was wonderful for our large group. Check in was easy and parking for 2 vehicles was perfect. Due to the cold weather, we did need to utilize a space heater and shut the doors to the living room to stay warm during our downtime. Beds were very clean and comfortable and showers were great. We would definitely stay here again. We would LOVE to see what the place is like in the summer with the beach!

Our trip entailed 9 people from St. Louis, Denver, Charlotte and Boone, NC, to celebrate Thanksgiving. The host, Susan, was accommodating and attentive. She even bought a roaster for the property so we could make a turkey. The house itself is in an excellent location and one-of-a-kind. We would definitely consider staying there next year.

Great location. House had so much character! Susan was great checking in to make sure we were all set and offering recommendations for the area.

This large home provided a unique experience for our family and friends visiting the area for a long weekend. The antique décor was fun and we loved the charm. Still plenty of modern amenities with the 3 nice bathrooms and multiple TV’s. The kitchen(s) where stocked well enough to cook family breakfast. The location was great – only 10 minutes to drive downtown or 5 minutes to walk to the beaches and parks. The communication with the host was excellent and everything was as we expected. Definitely recommend this for large groups looking to stay near Cleveland.

The house worked very well for our weekend gathering of 6. Everyone had their own bedroom and there are good places for everyone to gather and hang out. The house is quirky but that was fine with us and added to the fun!

We had 4 couples stay here and the location was great for us. The 3 bathrooms were handy for getting ready each morning.
