Wonderful cozy home!
We had the best weekend stay here! The house was so clean and cozy. We did a little Thanksgiving dinner and lazy weekend in with my siblings and their families since we live in 3 different states. We spent the majority of the weekend playing the different games they have stocked in the house. The tween boys loved having their own little spaces in the basement too. Would definitely stay here again!

Thanksgiving get away.
Beautiful home with all the charm. The owner was so easy to work with and answered every question within minutes. The house was exactly as it was pictured and very clean. It was so comfortable for the entire family. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely try to rent this home again. I cannot say enough good things about it; it was that good. Thanks for everything Diana!

We loved this place! Super charming neighborhood right near Lake Erie. The house is also old fashioned charm. Spotless clean. Hosts were very communicative and friendly with our dog - which is really important.

Mildred Mansion
My family and I stayed at the Mildred Mansion. It was beautiful and close to the water. Diana was an excellent host. We got there a little early but were able to check in right away because the house was already cleaned and ready. If I have any critique it is that we would have enjoyed a bathroom on the main floor. There were 2 of them. One was upstairs and one down in the rec room where our son spent most of his time playing the games down there. However, it was very lovely and we would rent again. 9/10 would recommend!

A Home Away From Home
My family and I chose to stay in this lovely home so we could visit Cedar Point. Upon arriving, the host was present because she said the gas grill wasn't clean. We typically don't run into a host while renting a VRBO, however, Diane was very nice. She stated she lived close so she headed over to clean it herself. Around 20 minutes later we got settled into her home. This home accommodated four adults, three children, and a baby perfectly. Diane's kitchen is well stocked. The house is VERY CLEAN. I forgot my slippers, I had to keep wearing my socks around the house. Two days later, same white socks, walking indoors and outdoors my socks were still clean. WOW!!!! I Thought that only happened in my home!! We also like the fact the the driveway had a gate. We could park a SUV and a sedan car comfortably behind the gate. Diane has the backyard set up with lawn furniture. We felt safe hanging out back at night. The neighbors were friendly. You can see and walk to the beach from the house. Just know you will need to cross a busy intersection. The lake "beach" is different from a real beach. With that said, it has a lot of shells and little pepple rocks. If you have sensitive feet like my daughter, wear water shoes and you'll be good to go. Cedar Point was around 40 minutes away. Meijers and Wal Mart are not far away if you need anything. We would definitely stay here again and again. Thank you Diane for the wonderful accomodations you provided us.

Fun with grandchildren
We had two mix-ups due to our calendar dates. I believe that was Vrbo issue and not owner. Diana was great to work with once we had a direct contact number for her. The home was very nice and definitely child-friendly. It was very well stocked too. What I really can’t praise enough was the quality of the mattresses, pillows, bedding, and towels. They were absolutely perfect. We had a really wonderful week.

Wonderful, child friendly home
We had a group of 6 adults and 2 small children and there was plenty of space to spread out and relax. This is a very child friendly home with extras like a high hair and gate for the stairs. The hosts were unbelievably kind and extremely receptive. This location is a quick 5 minute walk to the beach which was a wonderful extra!

Wonderful!!
Our stay was really wonderful! The property is beautiful with fully updated everything, a location that was quiet but ridiculously close to the park/beach, and owners that were so attentive. You can tell the effort they have put into making the stay as easy as possible for the guests, with lots of little but important details (extra towels easily accessible, brand new washer/dryer, ceiling fans, etc). They even had outlet covers in everything knowing they had a toddler in the group that was staying. So thoughtful! We will define it be booking again when we visit Lorain again. <3
