Best place ever!!!
Another absolutely amazing stay. Susan made us feel so welcome with so many personal touches. We were greeted with a basket specific for our family with so many fun goodies for both kids and adults. She had made sure we had tons of kid related craft options, including crayons, markers, notebooks, baby toys for our little ones, fun extra snacks including s’more packet. It was like Christmas in August and it made our stay so special. The house is gorgeous, well stocked with paper products. Rooms clean and the pool is the best ever. Also stocked with toys the kids could play with in the pool. Game room is epic. Susan has a heart for family, best host ever. Thank you Ruth Ridley

A wonderful place to get away
The house is located in a nice neighborhood and has all the amenities anyone could ask for. The indoor pool was a huge hit and the property couldn’t have been better. The downtown area was not far away and we had an absolute blast Went there for a weekend getaway w just our kids and grandkids and this was a perfect place to reconnect and focus on our family. Could not recommend this place more. The host, Sue, was outstanding in not only communication with us but also in making sure there was everything we needed. Thank you again and look forward to the next time.

Amazing property convenient to Vermilion
It's hard to appreciate exactly how beautiful this home is until you've been there. The street is quiet and lovely, the kids loved the indoor pool and arcade, and it was convenient to Vermilion. If you're looking for a multi-family getaway close to the lake, look no further. This is it.

Winter Family Fun
We rented Sue’s place to celebrate my parents 50th anniversary with just her 2 daughters, their husbands and their 4 grand children … the bonus was our furry family too. The kids obviously loved the pool and the game room, but we just all loved having space to be together and relax. Sue is a real professional and was so helpful. We appreciate her and would recommend. Happy New Year! P.S. my niece wanted me to say the little closet cubby was her favorite.

Where family memories are made.....
This was our second time staying at this amazing home. The number one reason to go is Sue, she is an amazing hostess. Communication is tops, always available to help in any way. She has a heart for families and wants to make sure it is magical for family memories. The house is very nice, clean, well-stocked with TP, paper towels and all the kitchen utensils you will ever need. All the bedrooms are lovely, very comfortable beds. Several areas to congregate. The pool is perfect, stocked with tons of swimming noodles, floats, you name it. I think our kids enjoyed picking through all the toys as much as swimming. Tons of towels, both for the pool and in each room. The laundry room has great washer/dryer and stocked with laundry detergent. Ohhhh also you are greeted with the best welcome basket full of goodies. We also love the location, Vermilion is such a unique town on the coast, we love all the local restaurants, the beach, all the stores. Thank you for giving us this gorgeous worry-free time in your beautiful home.

Great family getaway!
This beautiful home and property was such fun! The pool was amazing and well cared for! Everyone had fun in the game room playing anything from different forms of Pac Man, Mario Brothers, Frogger- you name it! The game room was used for family game playing- a great way to make memories! Sue the hostess is so attentive to any needs. We used the front porch, the bistro area, the picnic tables, virtually every corner! The house is so spacious and beds are comfy! If you’re looking for a great spot with a charming little community that doesn’t feel too “touristy”, this is the place for you! Lake Erie was beautiful! We had the best time!

Fun family memories
This is our second summer to stay at this rental. Our extended family had so much fun again this year. We love the location. It’s quiet and secluded yet close to the beach and shops. The game room and indoor pool are big hits with the kids - especially when the weather is rainy. The extra amenities are nice too - a huge basket of snacks to welcome us, towels by the pool, paper products and detergents all provided. And to top it all off, Sue is so easy to communicate with. My 4 year old grandson said it best - “We HAVE to come back to this same house EVERY year!”
