- Commonly asked questions -

Is the property located directly on the water?

Yes, the house is directly on the water, no other property separates you from Lake Erie. There is a hill that was built 30 years ago to prevent the peninsula from flooding, so you must walk up a hill located 40 foot out the back door to see the water.

Can you swim, is there a beach?

While I don't recommend swimming, you can. It is very rocky beach out back. Some people have brought kayaks to launch and have had no issues.

Is there room to park my boat? Can I fish?

You can fish out back, pick your lucky spot on the rocks and cast a line! There is room for boat parking, I will just need a heads up. The local launch is about 2 miles away, and you are split pretty even between Catawba and Detroit for fishing!

My friend and I had a lovely time at your house. We really appreciated how reachable the owner was, and loved the cute house. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the shower was delightful.

The owner, Justin, did an amazing job updating this house. It is quaint and located close to the shoreline of Lake Erie. My wife and i enjoyed our time. All of the rooms have been upgraded and electronics connected via Alexa. (That took a little getting used to.) A few items to note: 1. The lock for entry is on the side of the house & the owner recommends using the back door for carrying things in/out. This is good advice as the side entry has higher steps which my be ackward as well as a 90 degree turn into the kitchen. 2. The beds in both rooms have new matresses. These were a bit too firm for my wife's and my liking. If you prefer softer for sleeping, the couch worked better. 3. The two best places on the couch are the reclining seat nearest the kitchen and the "corner". I sunk in other spaces and could not get the second reclining seat to "recline". 4. Alexa randomly spoke and/or played something without being called upon. 5. There is a gazebo directly behind the house. There were some people partying (end of labor day weekend) and we were initially told by the owner to stay away as the gazebo is private property. Later, he indicated we could go by it but noting it was a work in process. (Recommend this be clearly described in the posting.) 6. Two items outside of the owners control were (a) brown/copperish water for a period of time and (b) intermittent internet connectivity. These didnt last or impact the stay - just some inconvenience.

Nice little house in quiet neighborhood on the lake. Unfortunately couldn't launch kayaks from the property but found other places to go. We had a great time celebrating our anniversary!

Even with neighbors, this home felt secluded and comfy. We didn’t use the backyard much, but the view from the living room was nice and the retaining walls kept it private. Kitchen was well equipped for normal use. Absolutely LOVED the shower! 10/10!

Great place to stay , there was no beach or fire pit but that is ok the only real problem was with the WIFI . it was a very very week signal , there are tv's in every room but we could hardly watch the one in the living room. ( TV is on streaming service )

Nice clean quiet place to unwind or use as a place to explore the lake and Toledo. Kitchen was great for preparing breakfasts. Although the host did not plan this, we enjoyed watching the rabbits enjoy themselves in the yard. Thank you for your hospitality
