DOWNTOWN SANDUSKY. WALK TO FERRY BOATS, BARS, RESTAURANTS & MUSEUMS. SLEEPS 18,

We offer more that just a pretty home to rent for vacation. We offer a superb location in downtown Sandusky. Two blocks from the water minutes to every hot spot in downtown. And trust me our downtown is Hottttt!!!!!! Our downtown has been voted the #1 Coastal Downtown in America by USA TODAY!!
It has such a cool coastal vibe, you're going to just love it.

This beautiful beach themed house is just 1 short mile to Cedar Point. This home is very large with room to roam and boasts two staircases. We've redone all the bedrooms in light and airy colors. Our incredible Beach themed home features 8 bedrooms (one on the main floor).One King, Eight Queens, One Double and one pull out futon. The forever water heater means you'll never run out of hot water....take a nice hot, long shower if you want to. If you like restaurants, museums, coffee houses, night spots, theaters and antique shops you will love staying in this location.

Private parking for three/four in the back with additional parking directly in front of our home for four/five additional vehicles. We offer dining room seating for 20 with six additional seats in the kitchen. We've also added a privacy deck and eating area for entertaining in the back.....palm trees...white lights....you get the picture. Come stay in a extra large home where generations can come together as a family and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Lake Erie beckons just a short walk away with the boat launch right downtown. Many beautiful parks and play areas line our waterfront. You'll love strolling through our beautiful downtown. We offer a brand new ax throwing bar (fun) an all new indoor mall with new eating establishments. Come enjoy our lush gardens and you can even visit the Carousel Museum to enjoy a ride on their indoor carousel from Cedar Point long ago. Our downtown caters to all levels of tastes in cuisine.

We offer tons of waterfront dining, café style coffee shops and incredible pizzeria's. We have something for everyone. We are a short drive away from the new Cedar Point Sports Complex as well. We look forward to having you stay for a week or a month. Everyone loves vacationing together!

This house has been such a labor of love and we know you are going to love your time here.

Sandusky is a really fun and beautiful city for all ages...lots of green space, beautiful gardens and parks and ‘run around’ places for kids. The house is very close to town, just a quick and easy walk to downtown. The home is huge with lots of lovely little bedrooms to choose from for our big family gathering and many other areas to gather and dine and play games. It’s an older house with lots of charm and is decorated nicely. The owners communicated very well and responded promptly when asked questions…super easy! We had a great time making the house our home for the weekend and would stay here again!

Great location and lots of special touches

Our family celebrated two college graduations and had a great time! The owner really goes above and beyond to add special touches throughout the house. The location is fantastic to the ferry, waterfront and downtown nightlife. Watching the sunset at Dockside Cafe was one of our favorite spots. You will be sure to enjoy your stay!

Volleyball team stay

This was the perfect spot for a group of 5 girls and their parents to stay (and we could have fit more). Only a 5 minute drive to Cedar Point and an 10 minute drive to the sports center where we attended a volleyball tournament. We were also in walking distance to the downtown restaurants and night life. We would definitely stay here again!

Great house for family trips

We had 18 people ages 0-75 and we found the house very accommodating. Lots of bedrooms and communal space to hang out after a day at cedar point. The house had many different amenities- we didn’t have to use any of the bags, toilet paper or soaps that we brought along. Lots o babies items too- pack n play, travel bassinet, high chair, plastic bowls and cutely. Would definitely stay here again!

Family reunion

This house was a perfect place for our family reunion. We had 15 staying there, ages from 7 to 73. The bedroom & bathroom on the first floor worked well for my brother-in-law who does not do well with stairs. Plenty of things to do in the area for all ages. Many places/things to do within walking distance of the house. I would definitely come back here again.

This house worked out very well for our group of 15 family members. The location is perfect. It is very easy to walk to downtown Sandusky and a short drive to Cedar Point. The house was spacious enough for everyone, with plenty of seating and the kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with essentials. The bedroom layout is a bit strange upstairs, but having two stairwells makes it workable. Most of our group also reported that the beds were comfortable. The first floor bedroom was convenient for my elderly aunt. However, she was unable to use the grab bar in the bathroom because the suction cups would not stay affixed to the wall. A grab bar that is anchored to the wall would be best. Similarly, there is a shelf in the dining room that was warped and detaching from the wall that should be repaired.The hosts were very friendly and answered all of my questions prior to our arrival. They were kind enough to let me in an hour before check-in also. They had a lot of good suggestions about where to eat.

Great home for a large family reunion

We really enjoyed out week end at this very large home. There were large gathering and eating spaces, both indoor and out, to go along with the sleeping spaces for 18 people. The home is located on a quiet street just across from a park with a fountain and within blocks of the waterfront. The home was clean and well appointed, and the owners were friendly and helpful.

Perfect family reunion weekend

Our family loved our stay in this cute and comfortable home. Plenty of space for the 19 of us to hang out together - playing games, watching movies, cooking and eating meals - and to retreat from the large group too. We enjoyed Sandusky - walked through the Farmer's Market on Saturday morning (just steps from the front door!), and the waterfront park a few blocks away. We drove to a beach for swimming, only about 25 minutes away. We would all love to stay here again!
