Secluded Cottage with Hidden Cove on Lake Erie

This secluded cottage rests on 2.5 acres on the shores of Lake Erie offers amazing views with complete privacy. There is a private drive to the property that leads you to amazing sunsets, fire pit, grapes, berries, eagles, deer, and wildlife. The perfect getaway to enjoy your own private paradise. Excellent restaurants, attractions await you in the heart of the wine country..
The space
Completely renovated living area, kitchen, and master suite in 2021. There are two bedrooms one with a queen bed (new mattress and box spring) and the other with two twin Thermopedic mattresses. The living area has a large sectional to view large TV, pellet stove, or Lake Erie. The kitchen and dining area have a large counter that overlooks the living area. Two full baths are available.
Guest access
You will be secluded from the rest of the world.
Other things to note
The property does not have public water or sewer because it is so secluded. However, a new water treatment system and 500 gallon holding tank were installed in the Fall of 2021. Do not expect a shower massage as the water pressure is not strong on any well system. However, do expect an amazing stay on your own little paradise. The dock with ladder going down to the beach area will be installed by May 1. The beach is rocky, but smooth rocks.
PLEASE NOTE: Lake Erie recently took away our small beach so there is a solid slate rock Lake Erie bottom about six feet deep in the cove. There are many nearby beaches 5, 10, and 15 miles away going both dirrections. The property is still amazing with views and privacy, but Lake Erie is extremely powerful at times. Individuals who love to fish will appreciate the property even more with fishing available off the dock from May 1st to September 30th. Note that the dock must be removed by October 1st when extremely strong waves are more likely.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a water park or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Wine venture
The cabin was very nice, clean and had everything you needed. Bit of a problem with drowsy bees though. Had to rid around 10 of them. Not sure where they were coming from but Overall it was a lovely place!

Anniversary Getaway
The privacy and the views definitely were not oversold. The view from fire pit looks tropical. We found Five & 20 Spirits and Arundel Cellars on our last night, wish we would have found them sooner. The impromptu band at Five & 20 was outstanding.

Unique hideaway with all the conveniences
We loved our stay at the end of the gravel road from the main highway. The grounds are well kept and invite strolling around a bit, with the groundhog. The host maintained excellent communication. The bed upstairs is very comfortable for sound sleep. This is very close to relatives in Pennsylvania. We'll be back.

Amazing location!!
This was a girls trip for my daughter's and I. We LOVED the Cove so close to the house! We had breakfast on the ledge above and were mesmerized by the huge crashing waves which sounded like thunder at times! We got drenched once even though far away. The sunsets were breathtaking unlike we've ever seen! The water was way too rough to swim in while we there but someone did just a few days before our stay. The yard was filled with beautiful wildflowers. We brought folding chairs which we were SO glad we did to be able to sit near the waves. The house was very comfortable and unique. It had everything we needed. Thanks for a great stay. It would be great to see it at another time of the year!

A beautiful secluded place on Lake Erie
If you are looking for a place to unplug, rest, and relax, this is the place. We took advantage of the location and spent a day in Niagara Falls. We also explored some of the local area beaches (Twenty mile beach and Shades beach). We were lucky enough to drop the ladder one day and swim in beautiful Lake Erie. The property is absolutely beautiful. We picked wild blackberries and enjoyed the sunset each night from the dock. We are returning to life rested and rejuvenated. The host is great! They took care of us very quickly when a concern arose.

Total seclusion and waterfront sunsets.
Fantastic seclusion and waterfront, a rare combination. Only one other home is even visible from the property, and it did not appear to be in use at this time. Also the wildlife, we saw deer, groundhogs and chipmunks right on the grounds, and bald eagles overhead. This is an older home which shows its age on the outside, but the interior is nicely redone. If you like total seclusion and waterfront sunsets, this is a great choice.

Beautiful scenery
Nice peaceful place to stay. Was a little upset that the water was high and there was no beach at the cove, as stated in the information and seen in the pictures but it was beautiful. The inside of the cabin was very nice. The outside needed some clean up but over all it was a nice weekend.
