So much room! We were 3 seniors, 3 30 somethings and my sweet 7 year old grandson. We went boating. The house is close to Midway, Catawba and PT Clinton. We had a cookout, and boated to and from the July 4th fireworks. The extra fridge in the garage made things very easy.

We stayed here with 2 other couples and the space was perfect. Everyone got their own bedroom & bathroom. The location was convenient to get to & from our fishing charter. They even provided a deep fryer when we asked about one. The only drawback is that there wasn't a washer or dryer. Would have been nice to throw our fishing clothes in the washer. We would stay here again.

The house was clean and had plenty of space for our group. It has a large garage so that you can hang out in there in case of rain or to get out of the sun. Nice firepit in the back and an area to sit out in the back yard that is secluded also. What isn't mentioned is that there is a house directly next to it that you kind of share a driveway with, but the homeowner didn't bother us in anyway. It just surprised us because the description says secluded. It is on a main road so lots of cars going past. Other than that, we had our privacy. We really enjoyed it, and the amenities were great. Close to a lot of outdoor venues and places to visit. I would definitely recommend staying here.

This was a lovely property!- good outdoor space and lovely home with plenty of space for my family (5). The only downside is the road has some traffic noise starting at 4-5a although it only bothered me, the rest of my family didn't notice. I used ear plugs and that helped me as a light sleeper who was staying in the front upstairs bedroom. On the positive of being near the main road, is that it was an easy 15 mins or so to downtown Port Clinton and just little longer to other nearby towns. The owner was very responsive and helpful overall and we would definitely stay again and have recommended it to others. Good deal with cost as well

Fabulous farmhouse-like home with all the amenities. All bedrooms are organized and spacious. Kitchen is amazing-all the amenities and lots of space. Front porch is so comfortable and enjoyable all day long. Grill works great. Comfortable living room and additional sitting room. Lots of space for a large or small group. We'll be going back!

Clean and spacious. Country setting. Not walking distance to attractions , restaurants, etc. but an easy drive to most. Rooms and bathrooms were great! 2- car garage was a plus. Definitely would stay again.

We've stayed here multiple times and the location is perfect for our fishing needs. It is located between Port Clinton and Wild Wings Marina, which just happens to work out for us.

Our small group of friends make an annual weekend trip to the Sandusky/aport Clinton area. The property was perfect for us to lounge and visit and prep/ eat meals. There is a grocery store withing 15minutes and the jet express ferry is also within 10 min. There were several restaurants nearby with gluten free options and a variety of choices. Marcy was amazingly helpful. We had a great time and would consider booking again. We had 4 adults and one teen in our party.

We loved staying at the old farmhouse. There was plenty of room to spread out. The children loved the games and toys, which was a delightful and unexpected surprise. I appreciated the well equipped kitchen. We were all very comfortable and felt as if we were at home.

Great family home
We enjoyed our stay at this home for Memorial Day weekend. It is a great property - clean, well equipped, plenty of room, activities and games for kids of all ages! Unfortunately the weather was cold and rainy so unable to enjoy outside activities but fortunately the garage was large enough to play games inside. The only minus was no access to washer/dryer where if available, would have been the cherry on top! Nonetheless, great home and great stay. Thank you for the hospitality!

Family trip
we stayed here for a three day family get away and it was amazing. They had plenty of yard activities and chairs. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook. They supplied us with plenty of things to use. The house was big and clean. Plenty of towels. It was a great experience staying here. Plus it's in the middle of everything we wanted to go do.

The very best of the best.
A wonderfully clean, spacious, and homey stay. The owner and the lady who did the daily cleaning were so helpful and kind. They even provided some great farm-fresh cantaloupe for us. We hope to stay here again in two years when we return for the next reunion.

Family Friendly
This was the perfect spot for our extended family's Cedar Point meet up. I actually chose it because Grandpa needs to sleep in a recliner instead of a bed. It's not remote-controlled, so we still had to help him up, but the recliners are large and comfortable. The wheelchair fit comfortably in the house, and we only had to struggle with one step into the home.
The rest of us had plenty of bedrooms and space to hang out. It's a solid farmhouse. Loved the entry mudroom! The wifi was good. Grandpa had his TV stations. The kitchen was large and homey, and we had a great time around the table. We built a bonfire and played cornhole. It is set between a cornfield and a busy thoroughfare, but far enough off the road to feel safe and not be distracted by the noise.
I am only 5'0 and could not see anything but the top of my head in the bathroom mirrors, and it's always annoying to stay in a place designed for giants, but I'm not into primping, so it was more humorous than anything else. It was a perfect retreat after long days at Kalahari and Cedar Point.

Plan on staying there again.
We attended a match at Camp Perry. House is about 7 minutes away, which is wonderful. We will stay here again. We especially loved the grill and the great deck and yard.

Great place to stay for our family
This was a perfect location for our family of 7. We had plenty of room to stretch out and relax. We enjoyed the fire pit and the kitchen was well stocked. The house was very clean and comfortable. Internet access and cable tv were great. Nice easy drive into town! We would definitely stay here again if we come back to Port Clinton!

Great Place for a Large Group!
This house was fantastic to stay at while we were fishing Lake Erie. The location was close to town, as well as, close to the marina that we fished out of. The home is very large, with four nice bedrooms and a full size kitchen! As fishermen, we would have liked to have a chest freezer in the garage to freeze our fish, but other than that, this place was great! We will definitely be staying here again!!

Great for families
This was the first time for us to rent a house for a vacation. We had our family of 4 along with my in-laws. It was easy to find and was just enough away from town that we could relax.
The kitchen was stocked with all the essential pots and pans, which we used to cook supper every night. The eat-in kitchen was great for our family meals. I loved all the countertop space and soffit lighting...made for great meal prep.
The kids loved having queen-sized beds to sleep in. Everyone loved the fire pit and making smores. I loved the sizes of the rooms. It gave everyone their own space. I would also love to transport this house to my own property... :)
There were a couple things...my mother-in-law is just shy of 5 foot tall and she had difficulty seeing in the bathroom mirrors until we got the step stool out of our car. And the bed in the master bedroom upstairs still stags in the middle. I saw where the slats were replaced with 1x4s but maybe using metal angle irons along with a piece of plywood might help.
Overall, this was the most relaxing vacation we have had in a while. We will definitely stay here again.
