It was like our own private lake and shore. The sunsets were amazing. The house is beautiful and the apartment meet our needs. It was very hot the week we visited and the lack of air conditioning was little unsettling. But the experience and time to relax was beneficial.

There is also a smaller 1 bedroom apartment upstairs which we saw and was very cool as well. Any issues we had were addressed promptly by the property owner who was charming. The listing does state that there is a tennis court on property but if you are planning to play tennis, it is not operational. Overall we loved our stay here. ##### Marcy M.

Immediately upon arrival or gracious host, Julia, greeted us with a bottle of local wine and perogies made up the street in Silver Creek by Barbie Pierogies. Our first impression of the home was akin to stepping into a museum. Period antiques, incredible artworks, loads of information on the area and the historic home itself. As an art and history lover, I was in my element and found a kindred spirit in Julia. Amenities-wise, this place has it all. I can honestly say that in all the years we rented homes through both VRBO and other companies, this is by far the best equipped place we had the pleasure to stay in. The fans and room air conditioners did their job perfectly and noiselessly. The kitchen is equipped with a great gas range, a dishwasher (awesome, right?), big fridge, large microwave, toaster oven, a Keurig coffee maker, pods, pots, pans, cutlery, spices, condiments, bowls, regular and paper dishes/glasses, foil, plastic wrap...everything a gourmet cook might need (short of a Kitchen aid mixer). Everything worked perfectly. Paper towels, toilet paper, toiletries, sheets, towels, you name it, it's there. The bed was very comfortable and spacious. The private beach is sandy towards the water and filled with beautiful, flat stones closer to the house. I'd recommend bringing water shoes. The location is close to a few parks, grocery stores, hang-outs and delicious food. The coconut shrimp dinner I had at "Off the Hook" was the best I ever tasted and melt-in-your-mouth cooked to perfection. Hubby had their version of a fishermen's platter - also perfectly cooked - with red snapper, shrimp, and scallops. Our fur kids, Polo and Bear, enjoyed the beach tremendously as well as the pristine lawn. Fredonia, Lily Dale, Jamestown, Silver Creek and many other little towns are close by, so I'd truly recommend this property as a hub to explore multiple cities and parks in very little travel time. Julia has all the information and directions anyone could possibly need in the next 3 lifetimes. I kid you not. Overall, I am 150% satisfied with our stay. I simply cannot say enough about Julia. What a great surprise to find someone who truly cares about her guests! We have been renting homes for 26 years, and this is the second time we found a truly gracious host. We will go back for sure. Note: the driveway is somewhat hidden, and marked by a black mailbox directly before the 45 mi. speed limit sign. I hope you will enjoy yourselves as much as we did. ##### Rosanna P.

The Lake front historic property brings you peace and comfort. The stunning sunsets and beautiful clear water of Lake Erie will take your breath away. Our host was incredibly accommodating, professional, kind, and absolutely gracious in every way. We can safely say that this is one of the best vacations we have had and we have stayed in many places through the years. If you're looking for a romantic getaway this place is it. If you're looking for summer fun on the water this place will provide that too. If you just need to decompress in a nice little quiet place by the lake then this is definitely it. Beautifully decorated and a lovely atmosphere. We definitely cherish every moment we spent together in this beautiful place. ##### Ana D. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### rob l.

The location, right on the shore of Lake Erie was magnificent. Austin, the owner and contact person was readily available and very, very helpful. We loved our stay. ##### Alan B.

The house had a lot of character and charm. Lovely view of the lake and sunsets. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable furniture. ##### tom K.

This was our second stay at this rental, and we will be back again in the future. If you love a beautiful view of Lake Erie with a very private beach that is super relaxing, then this is your place. ##### Dan H. Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timothy C. Aug 8, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful lake front property Amazing place for a family from Kansas to stay. The lake front house and the ease of access to the beach kept us out side most of the time on our stay and the never ending search for sea glass kept us busy anytime of the day. Great location to start any trip to Niagara Falls, or the Erie Canal locks in Lockport, or even a quick trip to Letchworth state park. The house has as much history as the Dunkirk light house. Over all a great place for a weeks stay and relaxed environment to sit on the waters edge and watch the sun set or get out and see the sites. P.S. no worries if you had forgotten anything at home. Chances are the host has plenty of items from coffee to soap to you name it. It seemed like Take a little leave a little. Thanks for the great week. ##### Timothy C. Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Mary A. Jun 22, 2021 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Lake Erie stay Found the deck area cluttered and unusable; moved a boat, driftwood, shoveled and swept sand off; I washed the glass top table (laying on its side) so we could use it. I washed west facing windows and scrub brushed the screens due to cobwebs - the best views from the unit. Didn't trust the linens on the bed so washed them. Had to stand on something to reach the AC unit controls in the living room; had to manually lift water line on bedroom AC unit to have water flow out. Chose NOT to contact management. At over 200.00 a night, it's not my, or my husband's responsibility to discuss and coordinate with repair persons, etc. This is a unique property and a nice beach location. We were very disappointed that it was in the condition that it was in. We cleaned because I was embarrassed to have my family stop by to visit (part of the reason I rented) in the condition we found it in. ##### Mary A.

The apartment itself had everything we needed and then some! We felt at home immediately. Communication with Julia (the host) went above and beyond - we took advantage of her perfect recommendations including a nearby winery, grocery stores, and running trails nearby. Can't wait to come back! ##### Sarah R. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alyssa M.

The listing is very accommodating for families and the host went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable during a really difficult time for my family. Would love to return! 5 stars! ##### Alyssa M. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ASHISH A.
