Imagine starting your mornings with a steaming cup of coffee on the deck, gazing out over 180° views of Lake Erie as the sun rises. Spend your afternoons lounging in the sun, reading and watching boats drift by. Unwind in the evening with a glass of wine in your private hot tub, then cozy up by the fire pit with cocktails as you take in the most breathtaking Lake Erie sunsets. Drift off to sleep, only to wake and do it all again tomorrow - your perfect lakeside retreat awaits!

Relaxing Stay with Great View

We had a very relaxing and wonderful stay. The view is breathtaking and the hot tub is great for a sunset. The house was very clean and has everything you need for a nice getaway to the lake. My wife and I came for a short stay to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. We would definitely stay again.

Breathtaking views

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!

Girl's Getaway

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!
