5BR home in Old Homestead 1 with Private Beach. 10 min. to Cedar Point, Huron OH

House, 5 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 10)

LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES FROM CEDAR POINT, KALAHARI, AND GREAT WOLF LODGE. This spacious house is in beautiful Old Homestead I, Huron Ohio. One of the best rated beaches on beautiful Lake Erie is a 5 minute walk down the street and is a PRIVATE BEACH with a sand volleyball area. A few doors down is a park a tennis court, basketball court, baseball diamond, and swings. The neighborhood is quiet and is perfect for walking, bike riding and running. Restaurants, drug and grocery store are a 5 minute walk away. The Huron boat basin is just a few blocks away.

This comfortable home has over 2000 square feet which includes 2 large living rooms-one on each end of the house, with smart tvs, an eat-in kitchen, dining room, two full baths, laundry room, and five bedrooms. All bedrooms are on the second floor. There is plenty of room for the entire family! There is a back yard brick patio with two tables and ample seating. *Since we do not charge a cleaning fee, we expect our guests to leave the house in tidy order.

There is a lot to do all year long. Imagine strolling along the beach in the spring when the flowers are just coming up. Huron is beautiful in the fall with the autumn leaves, too. You can walk down to the pier by the lighthouse and spend the day fishing. Lake Erie is spectacular in the winter also.

Do you want to golf? There are several nice golf courses within 15 minutes of the house. Imagine golfing at Sawmill Creek while having the beautiful view of Lake Erie at the same time. Huron also has Thunderbird North and Thunderbird South Golf Courses. There is so much to do in this area!

Do you like wineries? If so, there are several wineries nearby - Quarry Hill, Paper Moon, Vermillion Valley Vineyards. The Sandusky area has several more wineries! It is a fun place to visit!

Huron has a 110-dock municipal Boat Basin and Amphitheater where there is FREE live entertainment every weekend during the summer months.

If you just want to relax, then you are at the right place! Just spend the day at the beach and enjoy Lake Erie.

We had a great time. It has basically two living rooms, so plenty of space for those that need it. The beds were comfortable (which is unfortunately not common with rental houses).We loved watching the sunset (and seagulls) at the beach. It was close enough to everywhere we wanted to go.

Ten Stars!

Love, love, love this house. It was our second stay - it’s perfect for my big family and has absolutely everything we need. Great hosts who are super easy to work with and have thoughtfully made the house feel like home. Very clean and comfortable. (And no cleaning fee as long as you tidy up after yourself!) Thank you, Maggie and Bob!

Perfect Spot for Holiday Gathering

We enjoyed our stay very much. I imagine this community is hopping during the summer, but it was mostly quiet and peaceful over Thanksgiving. The kitchen was well stocked to prepare a traditional meal, and the dining room held the six of us nicely. We ventured out to Kelleys Island, the Rocky River trail and Berea Waterfalls, the Old Woman Creek Reservation and (some of us) to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The owners were great to communicate with and we are grateful to have had a chance to visit the area. Highly recommend. A quick note for those who have pet allergies - We are usually wary of renting a place with carpeting, even with the no pets allowed designation. I want to let you know that our highly allergic family members had no problems in this house.

Musty house with dated furniture and appliances. Stay was ok, mostly at the beach so used for eating and sleeping.Host insanely picky about cleanup----post it notes everywhere, then tried to nickel and dime for cleaning fees. Would not recommend.

The house was perfect for our size group. The house was really clean and well stocked with all the amenities of home. We really appreciated all the nice touches, e.g. the snack basket, and it was very well stocked. Being so close to the beach was also nice.The house smelled a bit musty and could have used some airing out prior to our arrival.The only negative is the early checkout of 10:00am on Sunday morning. An additional hour would have been helpful.
