Lake Front Cottage Perfect for Fisherman, Birders, and Family Vacations.

A spectacular spot for fishing, bird watching, swimming, and enjoying the best of Lake Erie. The backyard faces a channel to Lake Erie where you can fish or end the evening on the deck watching the sun set over the lake. A few steps out the front door and you have access to a private beach for swimming.

The cottage has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full size hideaway sofa/bed, a three seasons room, washer/dryer, and an open floor plan living, dining, and kitchen area. We have a fire table and Adirondack seating to the backyard for viewing those perfect sunsets. We also have WIFI for those who need to stay connected and the home is handicap accessible so everyone is welcome to enjoy the getaway.

Our cottage is conveniently located next door to Locust Point Marina. They have daily and weekly dock and ramp passes available. We are just 10 minutes from Magee Marsh where spectacular bird watching can be seen. A 20 minute drive takes you to Port Clinton for dining, shopping, or a ferry trip over to the island Put-In-Bay. For the more adventurous Cedar Point, the roller coaster capital of the world is just 45 minutes away.

Loved this spot

We were in town for birding and this home was an ideal location to all of the great north OH birding spots. Plus we got some great shots from the patio each AM. Not luxurious, the home met all of our fairly basic needs and was very quiet. Would recommend and would rent again.

Great accessible option

Great place to stay. Close to so many things. Fishing is in the backyard, beach is feet away. Was a peaceful place without a lot of people but 20 mins from so many amazing things to do. We will be back!

Great place

Very clean, very quiet and fully stocked! View of the lake can’t be beat. We fished, beached, found some beach glass. Great restaurants in Port Clinton. And the wineries and breweries in Catawba. Will return!

This place is AMAZING!

This is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed in the years that we’ve come to this area for the incredible bird migration season. Phenomenal views on multiple sides of the cottage… Everything accurate in its description, but you need to stay to really see how great it is! We were there for Birding, but we could see how in the warmer months it would be amazing because of the access to the beach and the fishing and that wonderful yard. We also loved the neighborhood- and waking up to watch the boats head out… Best highlight is the stunning view of the sunset!

Being able to curl up and watch my husband delight at the seemingly endless supply of fish at the drop of the hook while watching the boats and enjoying the serene sunsets was just what i needed to decompress. Easy access to fresh fruits , veggies and wonderful ice cream less then 10 minutes away. Janice is an amazing host ! My only yearning was for my mattress back home as after 3 nights away i was feeling it call me. 😊

Absolutely perfect

This was our very first family vacation & our first time at Lake Erie. We absolutely loved the lake, location, & the house. We fished at the house everyday & caught lots of fish! My toddler loved being able to go swim in the lake everyday also by just a short walk! The house was neat & clean! There are houses close by but we didn’t see anyone hardly ever. We did meet the neighbors once toward the end of the week & they were friendly & nice. Overall great place to stay! I have this saved in trips so we can stay again next year!

Perfect Home Base for Birding

Great location for birding at the preserves nearby, and it had all the amenities we needed: a dishwasher, electric kettle, all the kitchen supplies, washer/dryer, and plenty of places to snuggle up to read or watch the boats go by. We would stay here again.
All the kitchen gadgets and things you need, including plastic trays for kids.
Basics like sugar and salt.
Double doors to primary bath for accessibility.
Plenty of space to sit and enjoy company outside or in.

You couldn't ask to be closer to the lake! The 3 season room overlooking the lake was amazing, you could even open the screens and have full views and fresh air! We got to watch all the boats coming in and heading out, the house was clean and well stocked.

10/10 Wonderful

This was a getaway many years in the making, and we're so thankful we found this place to make that possible! It was quiet, peaceful, and had a beautiful vantage point from which we could appreciate the expanse of Lake Erie. The house was stocked with all the comforts of home and a lot of fun board game options for the family in the event of inclement weather. All the sites we planned to visit were within easily drivable distance, usually 30-40 minutes. Sunrises and sunsets in the back room were the perfect view to start and end each day. We absolutely fell in love with this location and we will be thinking about our time here for years to come!
