LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES FROM CEDAR POINT, KALAHARI, AND GREAT WOLF LODGE. This spacious house is in beautiful Old Homestead I, Huron Ohio. One of the best rated beaches on beautiful Lake Erie is a 5 minute walk down the street and is a PRIVATE BEACH with a sand volleyball area. A few doors down is a park a tennis court, basketball court, baseball diamond, and swings. The neighborhood is quiet and is perfect for walking, bike riding and running. Restaurants, drug and grocery store are a 5 minute walk away. The Huron boat basin is just a few blocks away.

This comfortable home has over 2000 square feet which includes 2 large living rooms-one on each end of the house, with smart tvs, an eat-in kitchen, dining room, two full baths, laundry room, and five bedrooms. All bedrooms are on the second floor. There is plenty of room for the entire family!

Family Trip

This house is located in a beautiful neighborhood just a short walk from the water. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed walking along the beach watching the sun set. We had a party of 7 and having the 5 bedrooms was great. The house was well stocked with anything you could ask for. We would definitely consider staying again.

Nice Place

Great little get-a-way house, 5 bedrooms so there is plenty of beds, lots of beach stuff in the garage, outdoor patio and grill. It was a perfect place for a our family gathering over the long weekend. Just a short walk to the beach and there is a park about halfway to the beach with swings, basketball and a tennis court. Quiet neighborhood and in walking distance of food and shopping. There are two TV's in the main rooms, but none in the bedrooms. Overall, it was a great place to stay.

Everything You Need!

I have been vacationing in Huron for over 20 years, and this is my new favorite. The house is actually big enough for the 10 people advertised. There is even dining space for everyone to sit down together for a meal both inside and outside. Maddie and Bob have also provided everything you need for a great beach week: bikes, chairs, wagon, cooler. We hope to book again next year.

The property was family friendly. House was in walking distance to the private beach. All accessories (wagons, beach chairs, umbrella, beach toys, boogie boards, etc.) were all provided with the house. Very staged to unpack and begin enjoying the house. We all give it 5 stars.

Fantastic accommodations for a large family

We loved this property! The bedrooms were much larger than they looked online. Everything you could need even a highchair for our 1 year old! We loved how it had two large family rooms at different ends of the house so one group could be playing cards while the other group watched tv. The had a large dining room that we all used as a computer room to sign into work. The beach equipment and bikes were so nice to have. The location is perfect in a quiet neighborhood walking distance to the beach, grocery store hand tennis courts. We cant wait to return!!!

Spotlessly clean property in nice neighborhood close to conveniences.

The house was beautifully clean. Maggie was very responsive when we ran into any (minor) issues. Communication was great. The house is well laid out, with lots of space for 10 people. Conveniently located within 3-4 minutes work from a shopping plaza with supermarket, drugstore, DQ, restaurant. Neighborhood was quite and well maintained. Easy access to the beach. House was well appointed with towels, kitchen supplies, board games, videos. It was a lovely stay.

Excellent property

The house was spotless and everything was well-stocked. The size of the home couldn’t have worked out better…all the kids got their own bedrooms. Plus, the second living room area was perfect so we didn’t have to watch kid shows all weekend. Also, the neighborhood was so quiet and nice. It was absolutely perfect for our weekend getaway!

Felt like staying at a family member's home!

Our group of ten thoroughly enjoyed the property and all it had to offer within walking distance. The layout of two family rooms was great for watching a movie in one while tv or conversations in the other. Dining room was an excellent space to play board games and eat. We were quite impressed with how "stocked" the house was in terms of kitchen, bath and beach needs. Owners clearly have a goal of making their property user friendly!

Just what we needed for a mini get away

To start Bob and Maggie are very very very accommodating. I ran into issues financially and they were understanding. I could not be more thankful! The house was older, but cozy. 6 adults and one 5 year old there was plenty of space to eat all together and play games. The kitchen was very appropriate and allowed for homemade meals. The clean up prior to leave was very do able. First experience on Vrbo was top notch!

About the host

Hosted by Maggie and Bob

I had been vacationing on Miami Place for 12 sunny and sandy eventful years when I introduced Bob to the area and he fell in love with it too. We were fortunate to purchase this wonderful home and add to the tradition of good service that the previous owners provided. We maintain the property ourselves and take pride in making your stay comfortable and memorable by keeping the house well stocked and clean as a whistle. Now that we have both retired (teacher and pilot) we can spend as much time here as we want!! We are also an artist and a musician as well as adventure seekers and nature lovers. We still are discovering many delightful things that this area has to offer. Here’s hoping you will love it as much as we do. We are just down the street or a phone call away. We want you to love the lake and surrounding area as much as we do. We will do our best to accommodate any reasonable request. Make yourself at home and enjoy your stay. Maggie and Bob
