Summary: We spent our Thanksgiving at this beautiful home. The quiet location on Sandusky Bay was a wonderful backdrop for our Thanksgiving meal. The layout of the house was perfectly cozy and spacious. One of our couples stayed in the train car and they loved the quiet and privacy. All of the beds were comfortable and we used the outside fire ring one night. The house was clean and had all that we needed during our stay. Our host was exceptional at communicating and making sure we were comfortable. We really enjoyed everything about our stay. We would highly recommend staying here anytime of year.

Summary: We’ve been vacationing with our children and grand children for 8 years now, with every vacation being on Lake Erie which is pretty close for all of us. We’d outgrown our previous 2 spots and luckily found this place after another house fell through. We were extremely happy with our stay. This house was perfect for our family. The living area was a perfect size for the 9 of us to gather at night. The outdoor space was awesome, plenty of room. Even though the beach area was a little small, (we’ve come to learn that beaches can change sizes from year to year) we had plenty of room on the lawn and in the water. The children had a blast with our aqua pad and kiyaking on the bay which was something they didn’t have much of a chance to do on the lake. The outdoor gazebo was perfect and so homey. The caboose is such a great added area for sleeping. Our grandchildren absolutely loved it. Although we didn’t really have to use the great garage area because we had perfect weather, it was an awesome extra area for hanging out. And the outdoor shower was something we don’t ever want to be without again. Michael was a great host and always available for any questions that we had. We would definitely go back. The vote was unanimous!!

Summary: The property was really too small for our party of 6 adults and 5 kids. There was no hot tub/ spa as advertised? The sandy beach was very narrow and dead large catfish began washing up on it! When I told the owner his advice was to bury them. My granddaughters and buried 9 of them on this and adjoining beaches to try and eliminate the smell. The next day there were about 20 of them! We quit and did not use the beach or that side of the property because of the odor. The owner suggested using the outdoor shower. Some of our party did to reduce the congestion inside but found it somewhat dirty with no where to hang their clothes. There is no cable tv and we were not very knowledgeable in the use of streaming services .

Summary: House and caboose were amazing, so clean and great layout for family. We had an issue with the AC in the caboose but the owner resolved it immediately. You can’t beat the location, wonderful beach our kids loved, lots of room to play on in yard, fire pit and screened in porch. Everyone loved fishing from the dock, we also rented a boat for the week and it was great! Highly recommend, will be back next year!

Summary: Our family loved the property. Plenty of room to be outside or inside. We had 8 adults and 2 children. They children loved sleeping in the train. There was a cleaning issue when we arrived, but the owner says that is taken care of now. It is close to the local islands.

Summary: Michael’s home is beautiful and the caboose is definitely an added plus! Our family consisted of 2 older adults, (96, 94), 7 other adults, (34-69) and a 3 year old. The caboose is clean and the bunks and the bed in the caboose were very comfortable. The air conditioning worked VERY well, so the caboose was a great place for additional people. In the house the 3 bedrooms were clean, comfortable and had plenty of bedding and blankets. The loft is an extra space for sleeping, although no one in our party slept up there. The house and garage were clean and definitely well equipped, with anything we needed. We loved the extra space in the garage to have room to spread out. The additional refrigerator was a huge plus! The air conditioning in the house also worked VERY well. The green space in front of the house was perfect for the 3 year old to run, play, and blow bubbles without getting away from us. The outdoor shower was definitely a hit, almost everyone in our party preferred it to the indoor showers! We saw lots of bald eagles, both in the morning and the evening and launched our kayaks and rowers from the beach. Michael’s neighbor was very kind and gracious, encouraging us to use his lawn, steps and beach for additional space and access. It made looking for lucky stones even easier! Michael had people come to cut the grass and check the beach, all of whom were very courteous, pleasant and helpful. The location is great - private, but convenient to Port Clinton proper and not far from Sandusky and Cedar Point. The only item we missed was some kind of a binder with information regarding the house and local stores/restaurants. There was a storm one day during our stay and it knocked out the internet. We had to search for the router and although it was not hard to find, we were a little uncomfortable opening closets and cabinets as this is Michael’s home. On the plus side, we found a cabinet containing games, cards, crayons and coloring books! We had a great time as a family and have some wonderful memories that will last forever. Mindy Hemmelgarn
