About this house rental
***Please be sure to read full description and house rules prior to booking.***
DIRECTLY on Lake Erie's shoreline, cantilevered just 20' above the water. Completely private waterfront escape. Experience the sound of the waves and unbelievable sunsets for a truly relaxing getaway.
The meticulously designed interior blends the timeless charm of mid-century modern architecture with high-end luxuries. Kick back & relax while savoring the view or whip up a meal in the gorgeous kitchen.
Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or a unique spot for a photoshoot, The Lake House is the place to be.
Originally designed in 1956 by world renowned architect J. Byers Hays (Cleveland Museum of Art, Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, Cleveland Municipal Stadium) this post and beam MCM marvel was restored and reimagined by artist and designer Conor O’Malley of CONOR Design/Build in 2023.
The interior boasts incredibly unique features that Hays, who is credited with bringing modern architecture to northeast Ohio, thought were the most special and ambitious of his residential designs.
Experience luxury and breathtaking views in this 950-sq ft home.
Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the open floor plan kitchen and living space with natural light, showcasing 20-ft ceilings and unbeatable views of Lake Erie. The Lake House boasts mesmerizing views & dreamy sunsets.
Relax in the "conversation pit" seating, or step onto the cantilevered wraparound deck. Enjoy privacy in this impeccably designed space, featuring all new interiors.
The cozy primary suite boasts high-end finishes and an en suite bathroom as well as a TV.
The loft has two full beds. It is a true loft peak ceiling, located above the primary suite. Adults can stand up in the center. Loft space not included in the 950 sq ft measurement. Ladder access up to the loft.
Additional half bath off of the living space.
The Lake House is a 10-minute drive to Ohio City, Gordon Square's Arts District and Edgewater Park. It is 15 minutes from downtown (and Browns/Cavs/Guardians' stadiums), The Flats, Irishtown Bend, Tremont, and Playhouse Square's theater district. It's 20 minutes from CWRU, Cleveland Clinic Main Campus, UH, Severance Hall, and Little Italy on the east side. And it's 30 minutes from Cuyahoga National Valley Park, with other incredible Cleveland Metroparks much closer.
For access, there are 60-some steps down the hill. It's a small price to pay for a slice of paradise! Think of it as a built-in fitness routine. And just imagine the view waiting for you! There is also a ladder to access the 2nd bedroom.
Entire home access to The Lake House and deck. Tucked away down the hill with great privacy. This is the only structure that sits down at the water in this area, so you have unobstructed views.

We had a fantastic weekend at The Lake House! The property was just as pictured and the deck and lake view were amazing. The property was very clean and comfortable. The proximity to restaurants and entertainment made this an unforgettable weekend. I would highly recommend a stay here!

5.0 / 5.0
Owners had excellent communication! Check in/out was a breeze. They had a nice informational sheet in the house!
Location, location, location! The town of Lakewood had a small town family feel yet close to everything!! Be prepared for the steps to & from the house, once you master that the views are breathtaking! That wrap around porch was to die for! Everything was top notch inside & out! We've let family & friends know of this property in hopes they will experience what we did during our stay!! Thank you thank you!

Beautiful view. We had a nice stay.
5.0 / 5.0
The first thing I want to point out in this review is that I’ve never stayed anywhere quite like this place, especially in Cleveland. The mid-century modern vibes of the interior and breathtaking views of Lake Erie (my partner and I made sure we were home for every sunset, and recommend future visitors to do the same) made for an exceptionally cozy and enjoyable stay. The second thing I want to point out is the conversation pit in the interior, where we spent much of our time relaxing over a glass of wine, listening to music, playing cards - if we weren’t in town visiting friends, I don’t think we would have left the house. Although when we did leave the house, the location of the property being a 10 minute drive from downtown and other cool areas made traveling around the city very convenient. The third and final detail of our stay that stood out from the moment we arrived was the cleanliness and modern amenities. The floor-to-ceiling windows allowed for natural light to consume the entire space. The primary bedroom was incredibly comfortable and includes a bathroom with HEATED FLOORS. And the kitchen is just awesome. Shout out to the owners, Kyle and Conor, who made the check in process very easy and straightforward and provided us with a 10/10 experience. We will definitely be back.
5.0 / 5.0
We had an amazing stay at the lake house. This is a one of a kind space nestled right on the lake in a secluded cove. The house was comfortable and provided great views of the lake.
Kyle was super responsive and was a great host in orienting us to this unique property. Highly recommend.
Hope to make a return visit in the summer.
