Great condo! Super clean and perfect location! You can walk to downtown area with shops and food, or take a 10 minute drive to Cedar Point. Had everything we needed. Only suggestion would be a couple blankets for the pullout couch. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing place to stay

If you're a group of adults visiting Sandusky (yes we were there for Cedar Point), this place is an excellent choice. The location is honestly perfect, right on the water, steps from the restaurants and nightlife. The view from the main room of the lake is great and we spent our mornings basking in the sunshine. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms big.The owner was super helpful (especially when I had some unrelated trouble) and even the guys manning the parking lot entrance were friendly.Highly recommend

The location was amazing and great view of the water. The pool was very nice and residents very friendly. Close walking distance to restaurants. Also went to Cedar Point and was a short drive since the ferry wasn’t running yet but is located right next to the ferry dock. The condo was very clean and comfortable we really enjoyed it!

Perfect views

Beautiful condo with perfect views. Check in was so easy. Checking out was the easiest I have ever done. I was grateful for how safe I felt. The guys at the gate were so nice and helpful. Everything was perfect. My granddaughters and I enjoyed shopping, Cedar Point, and chilling in the condo. If you’re looking for a place to stay near Cedar Point, this is it. We loved how we could see the lights from the park while looking out the windows. Don’t forget to walk outside and watch the beautiful sunsets just steps from your door.

Super Stay in Sandusky

Mark’s Apartment at the Chesapeake Lofts was perfect for our family of four. The place was spotlessly clean and the location can’t be beat. Great views of Lake Erie and Cedar Point from the living room/terrace. Plenty of options for dining and drinks within walking distance from the apartment and Cedar Point is about a 10 minute drive away! We absolutely loved our trip to Sandusky and would highly recommend Mark’s place for your stay if visiting.
