🌀 Central Cooling & Airflow:
We’re excited to offer full central AC—a big upgrade from window units! Cold air naturally drops, so the upstairs may feel warmer, especially in hot weather.
Tips: Keep the stairway door open, use upstairs fans, and avoid setting the thermostat more than 10–15°F below the outdoor temp to protect the system.

🌿 Lawn Care Access:
The lawn is usually cut on Thursdays (weather-dependent). The crew may ask you to move items from the yard if needed—thank you for helping keep the property beautiful!

Have any questions? We’re happy to help—just send us a message!
CANAL:
Please watch children around the canal. Since there is water access in the backyard, it is your responsibility to wear life jackets around open water.
There are four life jackets provided at the house. Please bring your own if there are more than four guests.

KAYAKS:
There is a liability waiver that all guests are REQUIRED to sign. Instructions will be sent via messages.
You can load them into the water down the street easily. Use at your own risk. It is REQUIRED of all guests to wear a life jacket and take extra precautions when using this equipment.

LAWN:
Lawn care is scheduled weekly (usually Thursdays). If you're checked in during this time, our landscaping team may need brief access to the yard and may kindly ask you to move personal items from the lawn area.

HVAC:
Please note: due to how air flows in a multi-level home, the upstairs may naturally run warmer than the main floor, especially during hot weather. We provide fans to help with comfort, and AC should not be set more than 10–15°F cooler than outside temps to protect the system.

This is a great place for a family getaway. The location is perfectly center to alot of attractions and the kayaking is a great way to spend the day. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could need and the coziness of the home made it great for game nights.

The property has a lovely relaxing interior. New kitchen appliances. Everything needed for cooking and serving great meals. Some great quality cooking supplies, coffee, tea, sweeteners. Very nice living room and dining area. Large smart tv! The most comfortable beds with new linens. Plenty of towels. No hair dryer. Kayaks available though no safe launch. Would have to take kayaks to another spot to launch. Thus, we did not use them. Small clean hot tub. Very slow heating up. Plenty of parking. Tricky location to find; but fairly close to everything needed. Unfortunately after a wonderful dinner out, my daughter’s minivan got a flat tire after 10pm. No regular spare. Easy to find tow truck. Impossible to find Lyft or Uber. After more than a dozen calls, my son connected with AM/PM 24-7 Taxi Service that got us back to VBRO after 1:30 am. Early checkout and left exhausted but satisfied.

It was amazing. The host was great and took care of anything we asked. Very responsive and easy to work with. My family and I had such a great time that they now think it is our second home to go back and have fun. We live close and will def be coming back again as we had an amazing time. :)

We live in Cleveland and were looking for someplace central to the Sandusky/Marblehead area to host family from out of state in early June. This house was perfect. The open floor plan on the first floor, with its large comfy sofa and dining area, allowed for everyone to be in the same space, including those stuck with meal prep and clean up. However, there is also lots of space upstairs, outside in three separate seating areas, and even in the basement play area, that everyone has a place to be without feeling crowded. Our group was two sisters, their husbands, and three boys aged 10 to 17. The kids claimed the upstairs which was a little warm at first, but the air conditioner did its job. Both downstairs bedrooms are comfortable and equally outfitted so there was no resentment over who got the better room. The place is well outfitted and very clean. The owner has things nicely labeled and organized. Only disappointment was lack of a hairdryer but that was quickly forgotten. Outside amenities are as advertised. Including the insects.
