Located right on the strip! Just steps from all the fun! Room was clean, TV streaming was spotty but who cares when there are so many fun things to do!
A great little place. We had a junior suite. very clean and comfy. Very close to all of the strip action but quiet and relaxing. A great private beach. I just wish there was an in room coffee maker. We will return we loved our stay.
I don’t know if we were or not, but we felt like the first people to ever stay in the cottage because it was so clean. The beds were really comfortable and the location was right on the strip with a bar and grill /music venue right across the street. The private beach area had a lot of drift wood, but was still a beautiful view.
I can’t express enough, our stay, our host was the best ever, the time we had was outstanding! We will definitely come back! Rooms are great and spacious, beautiful scenery,just doing nothing was even more enjoyable! Id recommend to all! Please come and stay you wont be disappointed!!!!!
Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The people that manage the cottages were absolutely great and very kind. The cottage was very clean and whatever we needed they provided. We will definitely come back next year and I’m sure the year after that.
The ladies were so pleasant and on top of it!!
From the moment I checked in, i felt relaxed and ready to unwind. The water was soothing! Great sunset too!

The parking is a challenge. There needs to be numbered spots for each cottage. There was also a shortage of hot water. Had to take 2 cold showers.

Check in was fast and efficient. Patrick the on site manager was very polite and helpful. The only downside was the bathroom sink did clog and there wasn’t any plunger available for us to unclog it. I would stay again for sure.
Our stay was great in some ways and not so great in others. It was just my middle school aged child and I staying in the Junior Suite. I’ll start with what was nice, It was the perfect size to give us space apart but also allow us to enjoy being together. The A/C was great as long as the door to the bedroom was open. The parking area was small but we found parking on the street right at the end of the property walkway, closer to the suite than the actual parking lot. The beach area was larger than most places along the strip. It was apparently being monitored by video, as a recorded voice told us every time we went down the stairs to the beach area.
the bed felt like i was sleeping on springs poking thru the bed linens cable tv was not working right bad internet connection used the shower ended up with water all over floor.
We didn't get a cottage but had a motel room next to the cottages so a little disappointed with how the property was advertised. The staff member that gave me the key was very helpful though and the property is 10 steps from Lake Erie so beautiful outside.
Did not have a coffee maker, hair dryer, or working TV. The listing said there was a kitchenette, there was not. Parking was a ways off so getting luggage to and from was challenging. No contact person if there is a problem. No lawn chairs. The bed was uncomfortable and mushy.
The air conditioner at least worked.

Loved the location, but there was no property manager there the entire stay. Just a woman who spoke no English that we assumed was a housekeeper, and was no help. In fact we had to help her change batteries on another persons room entry box so that they could get in due to low battery report. I’ll give more details if asked..
The bathroom sink was a Joke. It was, literally, the size of one that you have in an airplane bathroom. Never thought that trying to brush my teeth would be such an ordeal.
We’ve been staying at the same place/cottage for 21 years (minus last year when they were shut down for renovations) We used to pay890.00+. This year for the same cottage it was $1400++
Comfy beds and A/c that we didn’t need on.
This property was filthy. The person who checked us in was rude. The tv did not work. Absolutely horrible condition. We were not given the room that we booked.
