Location Location Location = Cedar Point minutes away + convenient fun + Relaxing Vacation!

The Lakefront Lighthouse @RyeBeach is one-of-a-kind as it was was built to create a lakefront experience with a deck and patio so close to the water you feel like you're sailing on a boat. Enjoy the firepit on the patio while watching watercolor sunset views and a cup of coffee for the sunrise from the lighthouse's upper deck and patio. You will love having meals and hanging out on the first level deck and patio as you watch boats pass by. When the wind is out of the Northeast you'll experience Pacific ocean like waves crash into the sea wall.

This is a fisherman's dreamhouse as you cast your line just feet from the home and if you’re into golf The Saw Mill Creek Course by Tom Fazio is 4 minutes away.

Rye Beach Park is only 150 feet away from the Lighthouse and has 9 playground features for the kids, a basketball court, and tons of room to play frisbee, catch, and wiffleball. The property also offers access to Willow Glen Beach a 5 minute walk through neighborhood. Both of these are private parks and beaches to the neighborhood community.

Sibling work retreat
This home was a great place for my siblings and I to meet and continue to work on our parent’s estate. We had the use of lots of table space, comfortable bedrooms, sitting areas to view family movies and slides, and multiple views of beautiful Lake Erie’s water, shore birds and freighters. We had a very pleasant stay.

Many mood of Lake Erie
We had a wonderful family weekend to celebrate my 75th birthday. There was plenty of room for 7 adults and 2 teens/tweens to hang out. Everyone had a bedroom of their choosing and no lines for the bathrooms, as there were 3 in the house. Loved that we could all sit at the same long table to eat our meals, and play games. We enjoyed watching the lake as it changed from day to day and sometimes hour to hour. Thank you for sharing your house.

Waves from Noreaster
Waves from Noreaster were coming over concrete and spilling onto deck. It was very cool and made for a nice experience. House was great. Plenty of bedroom (6) to choose from...equipped for breakfast... no icemaker....cracked open a few trays however that providing ice needed. So wasn't a problem...sadly, two night just weren't enough.

Great lake house!
We were very impressed with this lake house ! Great location, lots of amenities and items that were already there! Didn’t need anything. Awesome view of the lake. Kids and grandkids loved it especially the air hocking table! Old stone lighthouse was very cool. Owners were very helpful and accommodating.

Nice Lake front location
This was a great gathering place for a group of 3 couples. We each had our own bathrooms and comfortable beds with space to gather and play games. Nice quiet residential neighborhood and oceanfront property. The check-in process was easy and the property managers were very responsive and accommodating. Would consider renting here again, if we were in the area.

Great lakefront property! Plenty of room for 9 adults and 4 kids. Very spacious and accommodated our large group well and even though it was March and cold outside, we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. Ample fresh, clean bedding and towels. Perfect for our weekend in Sandusky. Only 8-10 minutes from Cedar Point Sport Center - and you avoid the train!!

Needs a deep clean.
I don't feel that this is a 5-star property. It is an older property that needs a deep clean and many updates to be worthy of the price charged. There are two small kitchens with not a lot of counter space and it’s difficult to cook for a large group. The place needs a good wipe down including the cabinetry, and baseboards (which are pretty gross). There are cobwebs everywhere, lampshades, walls, and windows and most have bugs stuck in them. It feels like no one has been here for weeks. Everything is covered in dust. We didn't use the upstairs balcony, because we didn't feel like cleaning it. The first night we were eating dinner and turned on the light above the table and we were instantly grossed out. There were hundreds of dead bugs inside the light. One of the downstairs bathrooms has a small shower with moldy seams. One refrigerator leaks from the freezer down into the fridge. Everything we put in the fridge got wet. The bottom rack will roll right out of the dishwasher if you don’t hold the door up. It appears the king mattress is on a queen box spring. Under one of the queen beds upstairs is very dusty and has garbage under it. There is toothpaste splattered all over the shelves in the upstairs bathroom. Nearby sandy beach is very nice. We did dig through the basket of beach toys on the back porch and found a few things to use (and someone’s dirty socks, old blue ice, and broken pieces of plastic toys.). Views of the lake are spectacular and worth 5-stars!

Family Vacation
Property was perfect. There was a "GREAT TABLE" that we could all sit around for meals or just a gathering place. (10 adults) The fact that we were 10 steps from the lake was amazing. The younger kids had plenty of space to play games outside, as well as, the adults too... The fishing was so much fun for everyone. The upstairs was a perfect place to nap and there is a deck off the 2nd floor with a beautiful view. Actually our dogs loved to lay out on the deck and watch the water and the family below. The bathrooms were all nice size and the washer and dryer was perfect. 2 fridge/freezer was very nice for the storage of fruit and veggies and beverages etc. I really cannot say enough wonderful things about the property. The bedrooms are all nice size, there is extra storage and space for beach toys or extra coolers. You really can't go wrong at this property...you can stay here and never leave and enjoy every day but those that are looking for a little more adventure there is Cedar Point and Put in Bay so close.....and so much more. The owners emailed with check in instructions and checked in on us during our stay and answered all questions that I had quickly prior to our arrival. This property really is perfect for a family/friends vacation...
