3 feet of snow and a state of emergency but still great!

We were unaware of just how bad the weather was going to be when we got there. Host had texted me via the VRBO app that day but I didn’t see it. Mr Harrah was extremely communicative with us the whole time and just an overall great guy. More than that was how amazing the community was. Everyone was so helpful and took care of us. Special shout to Nikki’s Bar! They took us in when we couldn’t get down our street and treated us like family with cold beers and got pizza so we could warm up! We will be back but will def check the weather with the new folks we met first!

This is my third stay in this cottage. The host is very helpful and kind. It reminds me of my Aunt and grandmother’s little houses by the Lake. I can’t wait to come back!

Good location

We enjoyed our stay here. It is close to the beach which was perfect for my grandchildren, they could go swimming as often as they wanted. The house is small, but worked fine for us. We would stay here again.

Nice getaway

Great location, short walk to the beach. Quick drive to anything you may need. Communication was great and had no issues. If you have more than one vehicle you may want to ask where is best to park but not something I had to deal with. Overall, i'd stay again given the opportunity.

Rundown down, unsafe and MOLD

This rental was horrible. The entrance door had a keyless entry but isn't held in by an actual catch, the door moved about 3/4" in the jamb and was only held shut by about 1/4" of wood left in the jamb. VERY UNSAFE. There were tons of cobwebs everywhere which led me to think it wasn't cleaned for some time- host claimed that bugs are present because of the lake... Only the kitchen and the larger room (being used as a bedroom) were air conditioned with window units. There is a second room that had 2 twin bed shoved in it, one of which covered an egress door that had exposed spray foam insulation and a window that looked like it was falling out- it was very hot in that room. The larger room smelled of mildew and mold and mold was present above the one window unit. That unit was in a sliding window with a towel placed over the inoperable side to cover the window. The owners had air fresheners placed in a bunch of places to mask the odors but it wasn't enough. The kitchen looked to have been redone recently as well as the restroom, the peninsula.wasn't attached very well to the wall and paint was peeling off the walls in a few spots. The pergola was leaning against the house and if someone leaned on it wrong it could come crashing down. We had to leave because of the safety concerns and mold issues, as well as the room that was too hot. Owner offered a fan, not very hospitable. Not sure why there were so many positive reviews but beware, owner will not refund. DISGUSTING!

Nice , quiet area near the Lake for a nice week.

This vintage cottage is nicely maintained and has a cute decor. It was perfect for our girlfriends week. The kitchen has almost everything that is needed to cook nice meals. I will say that the bathroom, while immaculately clean is a touch small for plus sized persons, but we managed nicely. Afternoons on the front deck with our sewing machines was perfect with the shade cover from the huge maple trees. The entertainment from the young eagles soaring overhead was priceless! I would book here again without hesitating. Thanks!

Quiet and yards from park & boat launch

Perfect for small family or friends looking for inexpensive spot to enjoy lake Erie. Seconds from public boatr launch, minutes from downtown Ashtabula for charters. Clean, cozy and was perfect for our low maintence fishing group.

We really enjoyed staying there it was a great experience

We arrived on Sunday afternoon and the place was clean and ready. Very quiet place. We took our boat down to the ramp which was walking distance. And there was a car show in the park!! 3 cars may have driven past the house the whole time we were there.

Erie Lake beach getaway

Roger the host was very responsive to our questions and even helped us out jam while staying at the home. Quiet little area close to some local Erie beaches and fishing. A small little home but nice and quiet and feels like a home and fits a family of five. Definitely will return again if in the Erie area again for vacation.

About the host

I’m a life long resident of Ashtabula County and retired firefighter. I can give great recommendations on food, fishing, and other fun things to do in the area.

Why they chose this property

The Lake Shore Park neighborhood is very safe and quiet. You can observe Bald Eagles, or hang out at the nearby boat ramp and bait shop to watch the fishermen bring in their catch. The park itself is within walking distance from the cottage. The park offers picnic areas and a covered pavilion, frisbee golf course, beach area, swimming, fishing, and a boat ramp.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is walking distance to Lake Erie and Lake Shore Park.
