Relaxing and fishing

Once again we enjoyed every minute of our stay at the Homestead House. The location of the house is quiet and relaxing the house itself is very roomy and was very clean and welcoming We will definitely be booking another trip. If fishing is what your there for there are 2 main launches ( Barcelona and North West ) less than 15 min away.

Gorgeous View

The property was private and quiet. Everything we needed was available to us. The view was one of a kind. Lake Erie is way off in the distance where you cannot see waves but the view was out of this world. The brilliant blue of the distant water blended beautifully with the vineyards all around the area where the house is located.

Amazing weekend stay

We enjoyed every moment of our stay. The house and property set the mood for a girls wine weekend. The charm of the 1800s house with vineyards, an old barn and tree swing. It's proximity to the wineries, distilleries and lake Erie was amazing. Everything was only minutes away. We can't wait to come back and just escape for another long weekend

Great stay!

Great communication! Promptly set up our toddler bed the morning of our arrival. The place is a great old house with plenty of personal touches and well thought out amenities. Right in the middle of a vineyard, it has a great farmhouse atmosphere. Exactly what we were looking for.

The Homestead house was delightful and spotless, very cozy. Suiting in the armchairs watching the lake and sky was extremely relaxing. The vines are king of magical and Wendy responded promptly. Looking forward to staying again!

Scenic and cozy

This house had everything we needed and more. There was ample space and comfortable seating and beds. I appreciated the supplies in the kitchen like measuring cups, whisk, baking pans etc… and the toys for the kids. The house is nestled within miles and miles of vineyards and there’s a lovely view of Lake Erie (10 mins away) which is enormous! We enjoyed the fire pit too. It was a very nice stay. Thank you!

Thanks, Wendy, for allowing us to book rather quickly. The house was further from Erie than we wanted, but worked well for the 2 couples staying there.

First Time User

This was the first time using a home rental property, and we were thrilled with how everything went. We went in with low expectations and we’re completely surprised with how nice everything was. They even left us a welcoming basket with a loaf of homemade bread and grape jelly. We’ll definitely rent here again.

Highly recommend!

I would recommend the home stead house to anyone looking for a vacation home! The house was perfect. We all felt at home right away! The owners were super sweet. The only problem we really had was the stove, some of the burners worked slower then some but we made it work. The house is in a perfect location! Close to a mall and driving distance to all of the people we had to visit. We will certainly come back to rent the house in the future!

Girl's trip

This place was a quaint farm house with everything we needed. Large bed rooms, very comfortable. Cute claw foot tub. Loved the fire pit! Awesome view of the sun setting on Lake Erie. We took little excursions to the peninsula, did some wine tasting, awesome pie at Meeder's, an interesting trip to Lily Dale, and a great day trip to Niagara Falls. We found this house great in meeting our needs, and really is in a quiet, great location. We were welcomed by the owner, and made to feel very welcome. We will definitely be saving this location in our "favorites" folder!
