Another Perfect Holiday

This was our 2nd stay at this property. The house was immaculate. Absolutely the cleanest house we’ve rented. The view is magnificent. We had terrific weather so we utilized the spacious patios to enjoy wine and sun sets. New from last year is the Vincent William winery/restaurant that’s a short walk. Great food

Excellent Vacation

My husband and I wanted a vacation rental that would serve the interests of us, our adult children and their spouses. This house checked off all the boxes! From obvious needs like house cleanliness, hot water, filter water and deck space, to beaches, hot tub, restaurants and local activities - it was wonderful. Thank you - we will be staying here again.

Fabulous view and location!

This was my second stay at this property and found it greatly improved. There has been some interior updating, and the house was clean. The washer may be nearing its end and the outdoor grill needs a good cleaning, but overall we enjoyed this house and the gorgeous view. There is a good chance of a third vacation at this home. You will not be sorry you rented this house until you have to leave!

FHSU Wrestling Loved It

This place was perfect for our collegiate wrestling team while we were in town for th U23 National Championships! Nothing could be coming back to the views and the hot tub/cold lake contrast after a long day of competition! The proximity to good restaurants was a plus for us coaches as well! We highly recommend this location!

Thanksgiving Fun!

We love staying here for Thanksgiving. It is a great getaway for our family as its just two hours away which allows some of us to come for the whole week and others for the long weekend. The well equipped kitchen makes holiday meal prep easy and the house is lovely any time of year. We look forward to spending more memory-making vacations in this great house.

Very enjoyable stay by the lake!

We were very happy with the house. It is situated right on the lake and we enjoyed waking up and looking out at the lake everyday. The house we clean and just as described. The hot tub was a nice touch as well. Definitely recommend this for a stay!

Fun for all ages

We are a retired couple who took our two daughters and their 4 kids total on vacation. One of our sons in law was there for an afternoon; the other for two nights. We seniors had the last two nights to ourselves. We LOVE the deck, listening to the waves, watching the sunsets. The kids LOVE being able to walk to the beach, playground and Karen's ice cream. We all LOVE hiking at Hogback Ridge and Hidden Valley

Beautiful house…beach not as pictured

The house was spacious and beautiful! The view was incredible, but it was not possible to enter the water from the steps as pictured without some athletic prowess and attention to avoiding dangerous rebar. The beach pictures were one of the primary reasons we chose the house, so this part was disappointing. Everything else was great!

Lake Haven is Excellent

We had a great time during our stay! We had everything you could need to help relax and unwind with a fire pit, hot tub, beautiful views to enjoy and private access to the beach! Owners were responsive, place was exactly as advertised. Within walking distance to a few local eateries and an ice cream shop. An added bonus, the next door neighbors were fun. We will definitely be back!!!

My 1st Madison vacation

Loved the house and location. Was very disappointed on the way to go down to the beach area. There was rebar sticking straight up in several places and on the last step it was a very big drop off.

Heaven!!

My family rented Lake Haven for a short vacation together. From the moment we arrived, we felt relaxed and carefree. The house and deck were fully equipped.. all we had to do was show up! Rooms were clean and updated, property was more than we could have asked for.. and the view was breathtaking! Thank you for helping have a stress free four day worry-free vacation! I can’t wait to stay here again!

Nice place on the lake

All in all a nice place to get away and enjoy lake views. Close to Geneva wineries. Hot tub was great. Did not expect to have to bring hand soap and toilet paper for bathrooms. Dishes and utensils had debris dried to them, suspect secondary to dishwasher being old. We enjoyed our stay but think some improvements could be made.

Family Christmas

Hot tub great for kids. Two TV spaces helped with kids. Layout of upstairs bedrooms good for three couples and 2 kids. Kitchen well equiped. Appreciated pet friendly. Walking to park, public beach, local eateries enjoyable even in Dec. Upstairs shower drain clogged. Remote for deck lights missing. Cleaning under beds needed. Fun to be right on Lake Erie. Safe, quiet neighborhood.

Great place to stay

There were 11 of us total that stayed and it was a great place for us near my grandparents house so we all could visit. My big complaints are the utensils were really clean in the drawers, a lot of them had food still on them so we had to wash them again which was a big deal. The biggest issue was the hot water. There was only enough for about 5 minutes total of hot water. So you had to hurry as fast as possible through a shower so the next person might be able to do the same. It made it hard to get everyone clean each day especially when ages ranged from 59 to 5 months old and everyone played outside. Otherwise it was a nice place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Darlene and Bud

Host profile image
We live in a suburb of Youngstown, Ohio. It is only a little over an hour away from home which makes it convenient when we want to get away and relax.

Why they chose this property

It has been a long time dream of ours to have a place in this area. A family member used to have a place in Madison and we always had a good time when we visited. We took many drives in the area over the years searching for a house right on the water and when we found this house we knew we had to have it.

What makes this property unique

As soon as you walk through the door you are met with views of Lake Erie. Sitting on the deck and watching the ships and the beautiful sunsets make you feel like you are at the ocean without having to travel that far.
