Escape to our Kelleys Island cottage: where comfort meets tranquility.

This charming, newly renovated retreat offers a clean and peaceful atmosphere, perfect for families looking to unwind and create lasting memories. Enjoy modern amenities, spacious living areas, and a serene environment just steps from beautiful beaches and local attractions. Whether you're exploring the island or relaxing at home, our cottage is the ideal base for a memorable getaway.

Welcome to the ‘Wigwam’! This quaint cottage underwent a recent major renovation. Our interior designers created fresh vibrant spaces while keeping the character of the historic home. We love sharing our happy place.

This lovely four-bedroom cottage was built in 1860 as one of the original homes on Kelleys Island. You will enjoy the modern open concept kitchen space with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink.

The dining area features a vintage harvest table, original to the cottage, with built in seating for up to 10. This is a perfect spot for dinners or games. A coffee bar and beverage fridge await guests.

The living area has a Smart TV with a comfy sectional, additional seating, and many family board games are available to enjoy.

The cozy front porch has more seating, a table and chairs for games or puzzles, and is a perfect spot to sip on your morning coffee.

The first floor has a bedroom with a queen bed and a full bathroom.

Upstairs, there are three more bedrooms: one with a queen bed, one that offers a full bed and a third that has three single beds.

Also included is a guest house studio complete with a queen bed, sleeper sofa, kitchenette and full bath.

A large patio area offers a gas grill, dining set, and fire pit perfect for a campfire and s’mores. A large yard is great for outdoor activities: corn hole and other yard games are provided.

Six vintage island bicycles await to explore the island.
