About this apartment rental
Bella Vista!! Yes!…what a “beautiful view” from this lovely 3rd-floor unit, which has three balconies (two lakeview, one tennis/pickleball court view), and is located in the highly sought after 'The Shores' beach front resort style condominium development. This complex, which is beautifully landscaped, checks all the boxes! Gated community, heated lakefront pool flanked by ponds with water fountains, lakefront deck, hot tub, beautiful private sandy beach, large common firepit patio with a water feature wall, grassy yard space with picnic tables and charcoal grills, tennis/pickleball court, the list goes on and on!
There is no elevator in the complex, but you will be rewarded with the view from the top! Inside our 2-bedroom, 2 full bath condo, you’ll walk into an open concept kitchen and immediately see past the living room to a view of Lake Erie out on the horizon. This is a clean, comfortable and well stocked unit. Consider this your “home away from home” just as our family and friends do. Pack your own toothbrush, food and beverages and leave the other amenities to us. This condo has "central" air conditioning and heat for your comfort, no window air conditioners or baseboard heat! We are located close to many attractions. For your convenience, I’ll list how many miles away the Points of Interests are, but you just might want to stay here at ‘The Shores’ to enjoy the lake life… catch the sunrise colors with your morning cup of coffee out on the bedroom balcony, swim in the pool, relax in the hot tub, read a book pool side, nap on the lake front deck while listening to the waves lap at the shore, dip your toes in the smooth silky sand on your very own private beach, enjoy a glass of wine up in the condo out on the balcony while watching sailboats sail off into the horizon as the setting sun paints the sky with a multitude of pastel colors. Dine in or go out to one of many of the area's fine dining or quaint and casual establishments. (Happy to offer suggestions - hints of cuisine preferences are helpful.) Then enjoy the rest of the night out on the patio by the fire where you can share your day's activities and plan your next day's adventure. This is a condo where you can relax! Don’t miss it!!
* Note: pool and hot tub are seasonal - typically mid/end May to mid/end September.
Opening date for 2024 is slated for Mother's Day weekend.
This vacation rental listing is going on a year now, so somewhat of a new listing. I would like to take the opportunity to let you know, that although this rental unit is somewhat new, the host is certainly not new to hosting. Please be assured that our goal remains the same as it was with our previous properties - superior guest satisfaction which gained us many consistent 5-star ratings and Premier Host status at our Mohican State Park vacation rentals, which we sold a few years ago.

We really enjoyed our stay at Bella Vista! The condo was clean and well stocked for everything we could need-including books and toys for our toddler. There are three separate balconies which make it easy to sit out and enjoy an awesome view of the lake. The private beach owned by the condos is a little small if you have a large group, but the public beach is a short walk up the road if more space is needed! Restaurants, parks, activities, and groceries are all nearby, and our host was very helpful in suggesting indoor destinations for a cold/rainy day. Definitely recommend staying here!

We loved our weekend at this beautiful condo. The condo was completely updated and decorated to reflect the lakeside location. We were able to enjoy the pool, hot tub, and fire pits as well. We would definitely stay there again.

We had a great time at this terrific property. The condo, pool and hot tub were enjoyed by all. Condo was well furnished and comfortable . The owner answered all questions and even changed batteries in a smoke detector that was beeping while we were there. We will definitely keep this property in mind if ever in the area again.

This condo was exactly as described - nicely furnished with everything you need for a stay by the lake! The Shores property has wonderful amenities and we spent most of our days lounging between the hot tub, pool, and lake. At night, there is plenty of outdoor seating for a picnic dinner or sitting around one of the fire pits. You cannot beat the sunsets over the lake - absolutely stunning. We had such a wonderful time that we are already looking to book for our 2025 vacation. Finally, the property owner (Pat), is so kind and communicative which we really appreciated after a previous bad experience!

We had a wonderful vacation on the lake! The condo has everything we needed to cook, play, laugh, and have a wonderful time. The pool was perfect and the views were fabulous. It honestly felt like we were at the ocean. Hosts were very sweet and made sure we had everything we needed! It wasn't a big issue for us, but the WiFi was pretty bad. Super slow and sometimes didn't work at all. There's not great service there, so definitely something to consider if you plan on streaming shows or working remotely. Since we were on vacation we didn't mind and just enjoyed the family time. Will definitely be returning!

Staying at Bella Vista was perfect! Pat was extremely helpful and welcoming throughout the entire stay. She checked in on us to make sure things were good and let us know she was there for any questions. The condo itself was stunning and perfect for all our needs. The location was worked out nicely for our itinerary. I would recommend this place to anyone!

We recently stayed at Bella Vista for a family vacation. The accuracy of the listing blew us away! The property was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend on the lake. The sunset views from the balcony were amazing. The grounds are very nice, lots of amenities for adults and kids both. This is our favorite property we have found in Port Clinton, definitely will rebook next summer!

The condo is very clean, spacious and comfortable. We loved that the community is gated and even as a larger complex it never felt crowded any of the days we spent at the pool.
We love the Port Clinton area and glad we found this listing for the dates we needed. We walked down to the public beach just up the road and watched the sunset and enjoyed ice cream at the ice cream shop next door. The check in and out process was simple and the host checked in to make sure our stay was going well. I loved the binder that was put together with recommendations for places to visit and restaurant menus.

This was just what we needed for our weekend getaway to the Port Clinton area! The condo is spacious, very clean, well stocked kitchen and lots of books/games, 2nd bedroom has it's own bathroom (which our daughter loved!), and lots of outdoor space with 3 balconies. The pool area was very nice and there is even a very small private beach area for the kids. Communication with the owner was excellent, she was very kind and caring. We will definitely be back in the future!

This was an amazing place to stay. We took a family trip to the the kids to Cedar Point. Far enough away to be out of the craziness but close enough to make a day out of it. The kids enjoyed the pool and beach! The condo was very clean and had everything we needed.
We made several trips to R Coffee Corner. The drinks were good! The business complex is also on a coy pond. Grab a cup of coffee and a bag of fish food. Relax while the kiddos or you enjoy feeding the fish.

The condo was very clean and well kept. The owner was excellent and easily reached. The location was good. Close to restaurants and bars in Port Clinton. Close to the ferries. The pool was excellent and the hot tub was a hit with us. The deck had plenty of seating right on the lake for great views and sunsets. The pool and hot tub were the perfect place to relax after Cedar Point and Put-in-Bay. Just a word of caution for older renters. The condo is on the 3rd floor so there are quite a few steps to climb.

Our 2 1/2 year old grand-daughter absolutely loved the swimming pool! It was mostly just our family swimming with just a few others all weekend. The Condo was very nice and the living room was large enough to accommodate 4 adults and a toddler. The beds were not the absolute most comfy, but all in all, the space was very nice. Communication with the owner was wonderful and any and all questions were answered promptly.

This property has been freshly updated throughout with contemporary / beachy decor and was very clean and comfortable for our stay. There were a lot of little thoughtful touches, like having a few throw blankets available and some coffee/tea/snacks, a book with menus of nearby restaurants and some attraction information, a few books to read and CDs. The kitchen seemed to be stocked well if you wanted to cook, and there was a laundry machine available. We found the beds to be very comfortable with good quality bedding. We enjoyed seeing the sun set out over the water through the balcony door. The common areas with pool and hot tub and some chairs looking out over the water were very nice, although the building exteriors and stairwell areas may have seen better days, and there is only a very small sandy beach area. The property was conveniently located to take Miller Ferry, visit Marblehead or Cedar Point with a short drive, and very close to the safari park. I think the best use might be with a small family. The second bedroom is on the side closest to the road outside the complex and has some noise from that, and that bathroom has a very small sink/shower. You also do need to be prepared to go up a few fights of stairs, so this unit wouldn’t be a good choice for anyone with mobility issues. The host was very nice and quickly responsive to a couple of questions we had. Overall would recommend!
