Stayed at Ezmeraldas for a getaway weekend with my sister. The cottage was perfectly sized for two people, spotlessly clean, and was extremely well-stocked. The decor was very unique and greatly added to our enjoyment. The grounds are amazing with beautiful landscaping and wooded paths that put this place head and shoulders above the usual rentals. We enjoyed the peace and serenity of the wine shack and fire pit both nights. The location is perfect for going to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. And to top it all off, Jan is about the coolest most interesting host you could ask for. You won’t be disappointed if you book this cottage .

Serenity for the Soul

Beautiful home and property, as well as hosts. Second time here and planning next trip. Everything you could possibly want or need in a perfect location. The interior is warm and welcoming. The gardens and firepit area are inspiring. There are lots of things to do nearby, but we came to relax and recharge and I feel better than I have in months.

High School Reunion celebration!

Two of my high school friends and I wanted to celebrate our reunion in Ohio at the wineries but were unsure of where to stay, as this was our first visit to the Geneva-on-the-Lake area. After doing some research, we came across Ezmeralda’s and could not have been happier with our choice. Jan and Joe both extended warm hospitality and their cottage could not have been nicer. The accommodations were clean and comfortable and Jan’s creativity and attention to detail was nothing short of amazing! We hope to come back again soon and will highly recommend this property to other friends and family.
