Great location
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 spacious country home
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!

Just Right
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.

Port Clinton farmhouse
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! The Smiths and friends!!

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.

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.
