About this house rental

We have a beautifully updated two-story single-family home with private sand beach with a 35"x14" patio on Lake Erie! Many of our reviews state 'there's everything you need' in this house!

This is our 8th year of hosting, and we continue to update our lake front property annually. Recently, the 1st floor Primary Bath was completely renovated to include a walk-in shower with bypass glass doors and a fold-down seat, double vanity, matching mirrors, undermounted sinks, marble countertop, an ADA-height toilet and porcelain tiled floor. Also, the 2nd floor full bath received a new 42"w vanity, single sink, ceramic countertop, and 42"w wall mirror.

Although we're off the beaten path, it's a great place to relax and enjoy family time by creating lasting memories! Enjoy magnificent sunsets and sunrises from your private beach! This area is known for abundant fishing (don't forget your Ohio fishing license) and adventurous boating experiences.

NOTE: our vacation home is located in a homeowners' association called Long Beach Association (LBA). LBA which is a private association located along the western basin of Lake Erie. Our residential community consists of both seasonal and year-round residents. To preserve the unique character and privacy of Long Beach, the association allows only a limited number of rentals.

Take the Jet Express to Put-In-Bay and walk, ride a golf cart, climb Admiral Perry's (war of 1812) monument in Put-In-Bay, or enjoy an adult beverage and savory foods in the Island's many pubs and winery. Submerge yourself in solitude by kayaking around South Bass (Put-In-Bay) or Kelley's Islands. From Put-In-Bay take the Goodtime Ferry to Kelley's Island to hike or golf cart your way to discover the world-famous Glacial Grooves.

Explore Magee Marsh Wildlife Area, and other local protected sanctuaries, nationally known in American Birding circles as host to thousands of bird watchers each spring and fall. Enjoy a fast-paced day at Cedar Point amusement park. Or slow it down a bit by taking the kids to African Safari Wildlife Park, Lagoon Deer Park or Toledo Zoo.

Back on the mainland, take a dip from your private sand beach before grilling dinner, and sharing meals in the Lanai while enjoying the lakefront view. Catch amazing sunsets with a cozy fire on the beach and close the night by sharing your day's experiences in the Lanai.

Come and stay with us a while, you'll be glad you did!

A very cozy and comfy house on the lake. We especially enjoyed the sunroom and terrace next to beach.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
This house is very spacious and well equipped. We had a group of 5 women friends and enjoyed the beach area for cocktails, the grill for a fish fry, and being able to spread out in the 4 large bedrooms. The location was perfect for birding at MaGee Marsh and Ottawa. It was also very close to a marina that offered numerous charters for fishing. Fred stayed in contact with us and was extremely helpful. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this house.

What a beautiful beach location. Our grandchildren were in the water every opportunity, we had north east winds, which they were able to use the boogie boards and body surf, and the beach toys they loved. We played games every night in the sunroom.Enjoyed our stay!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Oct 2023
The house was nice and big, if a bit dated with a few quirks, but a great location on Lake Erie. Very nice neighborhood. A fabulous winery called Gideon nearby! The hosts requested $25 extra for housekeeping AFTER we disclosed the number of guests and had paid the agreed upon cost. I complained about this hidden cost and after some back and forth they did rescind the fee. The hosts sent us 15 messages full of very detailed information and instructions. LOTS of notes in the house too including how to open the screen door, how to use the grill, flush the toilet and what to set the thermostat at (73). We were even asked to wash out the inside of the outdoor garbage cans! The hosts DEMANDED a personal phone call prior to the stay. This was after we had to send photocopies of our drivers licenses and sign a 6 page contract. The contract said the door code would be sent 1 week before our stay. 4 days before our stay, the host asked for a personal phone call to discuss all the rules. I had a very very busy week I did not have time for a phone call to explain the rules - especially after the copious amount of communication we’d already endured. I asked to avoid this phone call. The host refused to release the door code to me unless I made time in my schedule to talk to him on the phone. The hosts made this stay unpleasant before it had began. Honestly, the house was fine, but I would not recommend anyone stay here due to the hosts behavior.
