Recent Reviews in Sandusky

Port Sanilac Log Cabin--Incredibly Cute!

8/10 Good

"Cute cabin, great location, with close walkable beach access. Loft bed definitely for kids or smaller adults, but overall a neat place."

Peaceful Getaway with 100 Feet of Private Beachfront Access on Lake Huron

8/10 Good

"Cozy stay for couple. Could have a few more pots n pans for cooking especially if group is larger. Most tv options were ppv or on demand but did have dvd player option. Beach and water were nice hanging out with some wood provided"

Luxury Lake Huron Lakefront Home w/ Indoor Pool, Spa & Game Room - Sleeps 20!

10/10 Excellent

"Everything written in the description was as described and even additional perks were included like...coffee beans/grinder, paper towels, basic toiletries, beach sand toys (shovels, buckets, sand castle molds) sand shoes, group outdoor games (ladder golf, etc.) and a gas fire pit on the porch that made evenings watching the waves magic.Every communication was immediately responded to and the kitchen was fully stocked with cooking, baking and enough drinkware for all 19 of us....including a high chair!I wish every VRBO was like this one. Absolutely awesome!"

Whitetail Ridge Cabin 3

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, quiet location."

Cozy Beachfront Cottage Steps from Lake Huron with Fire Pit

8/10 Good

"Wonderful location! We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the lovely view! Stairs a little creaky, but not terrible as sometimes described, would rather have a bathroom update than a stair update. Pictures described accurately. Bathroom a little iffy. Bedroom in the garage has the feel of a camp cabin, not a cozy room FYI. Shower in that room VERY primitive. Besides the bathrooms, everything was very clean! Downside for our group, we had plenty of beds but not really a good area to sit around together and lounge."

West Park Inn

8/10 Good

"Clean, comfy beds, most of staff very helpful and friendly, close to town and stores and bowling alley."

Lakefront 9 bedroom house sleeps 21+

10/10 Excellent

"Was a great location for a large group - 10 guys but could easily accommodate more with people sharing bed.The master bedroom upstairs has a great balcony view (and there’s an elliptical in there too). Backyard, while a little small, has plenty of room to sit and look at the water with multiple sitting areas. Front yard is big enough to play cornhole. We used the propane grill in backyard to cook which was fine, but the charcoal grill / smoker looked as though it hadn’t been used in awhile.Less than 10 minute walk to blue water grill and Ali’s as well as Roxanne’s dinner for breakfast.TVs were nice in the family room and basement. Dry sauna in the basement (as well as the pool table) were great to have as well as the hot tub in the back porch.A bit of a nitpick but would have liked the kitchen to be a little more stocked with some accessories (no blender, no slow cooker, no aluminum foil or extra paper towels, which I would just bring myself if I stay here again), but had everything else including an extra refrigerator downstairs.Overall - great place and would recommend. Host was attentive as well!"

Hoff Cottage - Right On The Beach. Free Wi-Fi, BBQ Grill and Firepit On Beach

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great weekend at the cottage."

Lake Escape Lexington Cottage with Private Beach Access to Lake Huron!

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the little house! It was perfect for the two of us and well taken care of. Also a good location near town."
