About this property

Historic Home |Perfect Strip Location |Walk to Lake |Wine Country|Grill&Firepit|

Step back nearly 140 years in time and experience the beauty of the late 1800’s at the picturesque Eagle Cliff Inn located directly on the Strip across the street from Lake Erie. Listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, the Inn has been lovingly restored by the previous owner, Jerry Busch, to its nearly original state. Steeped in tradition right down to the antique woodwork, guests will delight in the cozy yet elegant atmosphere in each room but still appreciate every convenience found in a present-day home.
Enjoy access to the full Inn, including living and dining spaces, a complete kitchen, wet bar, and second story sleeping quarters. The Inn’s six en-suite bedrooms that comfortably accommodate up to 12 are simply designed, yet finely appointed in a one-king, five-queen configuration. Outdoors the estate’s wrap-around front porch provides inviting spots to unwind on cushioned wicker chairs, rockers, and the classic porch swing. Relax with a cold beverage or glass of wine from one of the area wineries while grilling a tasty dinner, watch a magnificent Lake Erie sunset, then let a star-filled sky create the perfect backdrop for reconnecting with family and friends around one of the firepits. An oversized parking area is also conveniently available for jet ski or boat parking on property.
Luxury amenities at Eagle Cliff include:
• Large en-suite full baths with tub and shower in every bedroom
• First Floor half bathroom off the Living Room
• Individually controlled heat & A/C in every bedroom
• Wi-Fi and HD cable TV in each room
• Gas fireplace
• Bath essentials including hairdryers, shampoo, conditioner, and soap
• Full laundry room with washer and dryer
• Iron & ironing board
• Propane BBQ grill

Check in is 4:00 p.m. and checkout is 11:00 a.m. Parking for several vehicles is easily accessible just off Lake Road.
Geneva-on-the-Lake in Ashtabula County, known as the “First Resort Village in Ohio,” is an old-fashioned lakefront getaway offering something for everyone, and Eagle Cliff Inn is in an ideal location for walking and easy driving to attractions on the famous entertainment Strip and north shore.

• Restaurants, nightclubs, amusement rides, ziplines, live entertainment, arts, unique shopping, and arcades provide entertainment for everyone in your group, including the evening concerts in Township Park.
• Play a round of golf at one of Geneva’s in-town or area golf courses. For family fun try one of the many miniature golf courses.
• Explore more than 20 Northeast Ohio wineries just minutes from Eagle Cliff Inn – two within walking distance. The Ashtabula and Lake County grape-growing regions produce most of Ohio’s wine grapes, giving our area the reputation as the state's finest. And don’t forget about our famous covered bridges.
• Arriving by boat? Dock within the safety of the harbor at nearby Geneva State Park. And Lake Erie itself has so much to offer: Book a sunset cruise or a fishing charter. Swim at the State Park or stroll along the beach, then take a ride on the Ferris wheel. There are several restaurants and wineries right on the lake, and our spectacular sunsets offer the perfect subject for photo enthusiasts.

Great house for a group

A group of six women stayed in the house and it was perfect since we each had our own bed and bath. Going in the off-season means that most restaurants and stores are closed, but it allows for great hiking in parks and on the beach.

Enjoyable weekend

A group of old friends and spouses got together for the weekend and we were pleased with the rental. Rooms and bathrooms were very clean. The downstairs had plenty of room to accommodate us and quests. Location is great. We loved the wrap around porch and the backyard for an evening fire. We would come back again.

Girls trip

Very appropriate for a group of women on a girls weekend get away. It is very pricey when we could have each just got a hotel room. But the porch and sitting at the table together made it worth it

Amazing

We had such a great time at the property. It's within close distance to everything we wanted to enjoy. The house was fully stocked with the essentials you need, there is a little store across the street, a few restaurants and bars. The beds were comfortable, the house was spacious and had some cool decor. We will definitely be planning a trip back in the summer when more of the strip is open.

Girl Time

As we begin our journey into our 70’s we decided to spend some quality time together. We had a great trip. Enjoyed our stay and visited several wineries. The bar next store to the property is quite loud until the wee hours and corner is quite busy. Overall it worked well for us.

All girl weekend

There were 9 of us, this house was perfect with 6 BRs and attached bathrooms. Tons of firewood to enjoy the fire pits. Being right on the strip is a bit noisy with cars and motorcycles cruising by. Didn’t hear a thing once we went to bed.
