Comfy Welcoming Cottage
This cozy cottage was the perfect place for a little “me time” between visits with family in the area. It’s nestled in a quiet neighborhood where I enjoyed morning walks. Next time I want to browse the small shops on Main Street. The home’s furnishings are clean and of great quality. Gill was also an excellent host.

Charming cottage on the lake.
What an enjoyable accommodation. The cottage is perfect sized for couples. We celebrated are 20th. wedding anniversary. The cottage helped us celebrate exactly as we intended. We especially loved the nautical decor!

Nice, Quiet Lakeside Retreat
Perfect size for a couple with all the amenities you’ll need. Quiet, with great view of the lake across the street, minutes from Showse park, and centrally located to everything you’ll need. Gil is super responsive as well. Thanks for a great stay!!!

Quick getaway
We love coming up to the Great Lakes. This property worked out great. We sat in the front yard and watched the lake and the birds. It was relaxing. The owner was very easy to deal with. We would stay here again.

Gem of a Rental
This was our first visit back to Ohio in over 10 years, and we could not have been happier with the accommodations.
The home is in a great area and has great amenities. We enjoyed sitting out front and looking at the lake.
Most importantly, the host was an amazing communicator. We look forward to staying again on our next visit to Vermillion.

Lake View
Very comfortable cottage with lake views from the front windows and the front yard. Convenient to Vermilion, several restaurants and supermarket.
Host was super accommodating, letting us get in a bit early to unpack. Having firewood to burn in the fire pit was a bonus!
