Hidden Paradise
Review Submitted: September 30, 2008
Date of Stay: September 2008
I've spent many of my summers in Port Clinton as a child. Now that I've grown, i still seem to be coming back for more of that feeling of total relaxation. Our group comprised of a small group of young guys looking to get away for a week and just have fun. Boy did we find a gem!!! The house is impeccable. The house is clean and neat, which is good for those who dread the dirty feeling of a hotel. It offers every commodity needed for a 3 day get-away to a monthly stay. We were pleasantly supprised to even find a gas grill provided. The highlight of the house has to be the deck(s). Downstairs provides a covered/screened in deck for rainy/buggy times. The second story deck provides a breathtaking 180 degree view of Lake Erie with Port Clinton to the west, and Put-In-Bay Island to the east. Excellent view of the sunrise/sunset, as well as a bright starry sky at night.
The community is extremely nice, the houses are well kept, and the landscaping is nice. The houses are very close together, but it never seemed intrusive. The community is set right off the main road, but noise level is shielded by the first row of houses. The pool area was a big hit with the group, even more so than the beach, as the lake was cool by mid-september. The only letdown is the 11 pm close time of the pool/hot tub area. We figured the community tries to cut down on offenders by shutting off electric at 11:05, which was sad for us late-nighters.
The community is perfectly set with entertainment, food, and shopping within short drive... or even walk!! Downtown Port Clinton is only a mile to the west. GREAT restaurants and the Jet Express to Put-In-Bay can be found there. Cedar Point is only 25 minutes to the east.
Rates aren't bad at all, especially with the size/quality/and location of the house. Patrick is a pleasure to do business with and is very flexible. Overall, it was a fabulous trip, and we can't wait to book our next visit!!!
