Enjoy some lakeside living! Stroll the shore of Lake Erie hunting for beach glass & take in the stunning sunsets in our private community. When you are not enjoying lakeside campfires, kayaking, & swimming, kick back with your family in the Little Shovel Cottage.
This gem dates back to the 1920s but features a surprising amount of space & many modern amenities, including central air conditioning & high-speed wireless internet. This 4 BR cottage layout features include three first floor bedrooms (king, full, and 2 twin beds) & a full bathroom, & a private second floor master bedroom (king bed), 55" smart TV, and an ensuite bathroom. All linens, bath towels, & beach towels are provided. The well-appointed kitchen is perfect for cooking for your family and the open-concept living space fosters togetherness.
Enjoyable outdoor features include 3 decks with outdoor seating, an outdoor dining table, & a propane grill. A short walk across the street leads to the large neighborhood park with access down to the beach. Use of 2 double kayaks, 2 youth kayaks, and 3 tubes are included in your stay & will help you enjoy all that the lake has to offer. *Please note, our beach is a rocky beach so water shoes, Crocs, or flip-flops are highly recommended.
