Nice and as described but the stairs had little extra pieces of carpet that slid half way off every time we went up and down them. They were already very steep and this made it extra dangerous for falls. Also, I would have been much happier paying the average charge listed here. We paid nearly double. It was a short walk to the Jet Express so we had a great day at Put n Bay!

We enjoyed our stay at this house and in Port Clinton! The house is great for a family with kids plus/minus extended family. Comfortable, clean, and close to restaurants and attractions.

Great Place For A Weekend Stay At Lake

This was a great place to stay for our weekend at the lake. We were in town for a wedding and the house was close to everything. It had everything we needed and more than enough space. It was a short walk to downtown Port Clinton and the lake. Would highly recommend staying here to anyone looking for a place close to Port Clinton, PIB, Catawba Island.
