Designer Home in the Middle of Wine Country is BACK!
This adorable Cape Cod home is one mile north of the shores of Lake Erie, complete with a guarded beach, playgrounds and picnic tables for shaded family picnics.
It is in the center of Lake Erie Wine Country Trail with 23 current wineries as well as Craft Brewing and Farm Distilling sites growing in numbers. Although it is from 2020, you can still check out this brochure to plan your wine tours. Limo services available in the area. https://www.lakeeriewinecountry.org/assets/documents/LEWC-Brochure_2020.pdf
Plenty of options for day trips from Niagara Falls, Presque Isle State Park and peninsula, Jamestown, NY (Home Of Lucille Ball) as well as The Chatauqua Institute, Lake Chatauqua and Lily Dale, NY. All fun day trips!
We are located on the perimeter of the quaint little historic town of North East. The church on the corner rings bells each hour on the hour. Established in 1794, they have done an excellent job featuring many of the historic features including a square in the center of town complete with statue and fountain. The square is a sweet little area with a Farmer's Market on Saturday morning, with live concerts and kid friendly events all summer long.
There are modern restaurants, coffee shops and Bella Day Salon and Spa host excellent massages in a Victorian elegant mansion. Antique stores salt and pepper the whole community. There are local groceries and everything you need if you want to stay close to home.
It's great for families or a girl's weekend get-away. The home has a king size master with 400 thread Pottery Barn sheets, as well as a brand new up-scale master bath with large walk in shower. Fantastically fitted kitchen complete with all new appliances, farm sink and adorable sitting area. A well suited screened in breezeway is nice for an afternoon read or just a different area to get away. There is another bedroom downstairs with a twin day bed and twin trundle tucked neatly under the bed. Upstairs is a landing for children's play including books and a few games for entertainment. The upstairs bedroom has 2 queen beds with plenty of room if two families wanted to share the expense. There is a bedroom vignette in the basement with a king size bed fitted with the same Pottery Barn sheets and feather pillows as upstairs, night stands, dresser and TV. The basement is unfinished but freshly painted and impeccably clean. There is also a baby gate, high chair and pak 'n play on site for those of you with little ones.
The backyard is fitted with a natural gas grill (just turn it on), separate sitting area and dining table for six with umbrella. There is a new fire pit in the back yard complete with firewood, just waiting for you to toast those marshmallows for your S'mores.
Our home has zoned Central Air Conditioning, Wi Fi, Smart TV’s and many luxury touches not found in most Vacation Rental properties.
(NOTE) We have a ramp on the front of the home for wheel chair access but the home is NOT ADA approved. There are two bathrooms on first floor but the door openings are only 30". Our wheel chair bound friend is able to use the restroom but she manages by holding on to the sink for stability. I don't want to give the impression this is handicap friendly as there are not grab bars in the the tubs or any other special provisions.

A great property, extremely stocked kitchen with pots, pans, appliances, utensils, etc., clean and quaint. It has a great location to wineries and Presque Isle.
The house is beautiful, as pictured, and comfortable. Kitchen was adequately stocked, linens were nice, and there was extras of things. The neighborhood is quiet and cute. This was a getaway for us and served that purpose beautifully. Very relaxing.
We had a wonderful stay. Good neighborhood. Clean. Comfortable beds. Well-equipped kitchen.

The house was beautiful and immaculate. We didn’t hesitate to walk around barefoot. The bedding was high quality. The kitchen was extremely well-equipped with everything you need to prepare a simple breakfast or an elaborate gourmet dinner. Super comfy furniture in the living room that invited lounging and conversation. A large selection of board games was a nice touch. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!
Home was beautifully decorated and well stocked. It was easy to assess with a walker for our handicapped mother. We loved the quiet neighborhood and the nice backyard. Only issue was that all the carpets turned up at the corners which were a tripping hazard. This was a really nice house close to lots of things.
My husband and I stayed in this Cozy Cape for three weeks while visiting our hometown. It had everything we needed to feel right at home. Loved the kitchen, master bed and bath. The back yard was spacious. Enjoyed the fire pit on our last night. Very convenient to the beach, downtown restaurants and shops, and the wineries. Would return again.
Stayed here with my wife, daughter and mother-in-law for a long weekend to attend a wedding. The home doesn't look like much from the outside, but it is fantastic inside. Beautiful remodel, tastefully decorated, comfortable furniture and plenty of space for a family or singles. The master suite is particularly nice, lots of closet space and well appointed. I highly recommend this property and would definitely rent again in the future. We had a great stay.
Our group of 6 travaled to North East so the ladies could winery-hop, and the guys could fish, and this home was the perfect place. It's super homey and had plenty of bed space for the three couples. The kitchen was well-appointed, and the living room area was modern and cozy. You also can't beat the fact that there are at least 3 wineries within a mile of the house! We accidently set off the in-home alarm system, and were grateful when our host responded quickly to resolve. Overall, everyone enjoyed their stay, and we'd absolutely return again.
Great home for our needs. Quiet and quant neighborhood. Well stocked kitchen, outdoor area, and grill! Fantastic wineries in area. Great location for those who bicycle. Stunning rides and easy drive to Erie. There is occasional train in distance. For those who are light sleepers or easily annoyed may want to consider.
The home is lovely and is in a quiet area. beach is one mile north. Beds, bedding, towels all deluxe. Kitchen is stocked with every pot, pan, small appliance necessary to cook and serve meals. Very, very comfy!

Everything you need to relax can be found at this cute cape near downtown North East. Responsive host answers all questions quickly. We recommend this place and will stay there again!
Very nice and clean property that has clearly been updated. It's rare when I find a kitchen that is nicely equipped but this property has that. Property manager is very responsive with communications. We will definitely try to stay here again.
We were a group of 8 people and the house was the perfect location for us. It was exactly as the photos and even better I would say. Everything was really clean and organised and sooo cosy! I would definitely come and stay back.
Quiet neighborhood that is close to many attractions.
The property met our expectations completely. Their description of the property and its amenities were exactly as were stated in the description. The linens were high quality, the kitchen well equipped, and the beds were comfortable. We would definitely recommend this property and will return.
