This is a quaint home located within the historical Harbortown District. You'll find yourself within a 5 minute walk from the beautifully renovated Main Street Beach. Along your walk, you will come across our Art Gallery as well as local shopping and fine dining you will not find anywhere else.
Being a small town on a Great Lake, there are many things you can do on the water. Spend your day renting a kayak, paddleboats, a boat or jet skis. We offer tours along the Vermilion River learning about our history or rent a boat to enjoy a relaxing day of fishing.
Vermilion has a long history of rail fans and offers several spots to stop and enjoy the passing trains. One area is very close to our house, at Victory Park.
It is only a 20 minute drive into Sandusky where you’ll find Cedar Point, Kalahari and the newer addition Cedar Point Sports Park. It’s also only 20 minutes from downtown Oberlin and 45 minutes from downtown Cleveland.
This house provides two queen beds and a sleeper sofa; sleeping up to 6 individuals. There is one full bath and kitchen which is fully stocked with all of your cooking accessories if you choose to stay in for the night. All linens and towels are provided; as well as beach towels. Enjoy the front or back porch, both enclosed, for your morning coffee or enjoy a nice book. The backyard is spacious and offers plenty of room for your children to play or to enjoy an evening by the firepit with seating provided.
Come see all the many things to do in and around Vermilion year round.

Great location!
This house is in a perfect location. Easy walk into town where there are shops and restaurants and close to the beach (although we were there in October). The house was super clean and had everything you would need. We did not use the kitchen but it was well stocked with plenty of cookware, etc. The coffee bar with fresh ground coffee from the local shop along with K cups was a nice touch and delicious. Owner was extremely helpful and easy to work with. We hope to stay there again next year.

Excellent Location
We spent 3 nights here, with other family members staying a another VRBO about a mile away. Our location was fantastic, about a 3-5 minute walk to downtown and the beach, and the house was extremely clean and just as advertised. The only downside was the lack of a lamp sufficient to read by in the living room, necessitating having to read at the dining room table or in bed, with the overhead and night stand lamps on. Adding one would be my only suggestion. This was our first stay in Vermilion, and we would definitely return.

2nd time we’ve stayed and would stay again!
Great location and a cute little house. Beds comfy and owners have stocked house with many extra things to make your stay amazing! (Beach towels, chairs, cooler, coffee, makeup wipes, etc). Only two things I would change- keep a can of cooking spray for guests to use (I think they had one last year, but not this this year and it’s just one of those things I always forget to bring for cooking!) and changing the door code after each stay. I noticed the code was laminated on the house instructions so to me that meant it was the same which made me slightly uneasy knowing anyone whose stayed there could potentially access the house still. We didn’t have any problems or anything I’d just say better safe than sorry!

Nice historic place
Charming, very small old town; houses that were built in the 19th century, lots of trees, nice people, good restaurants. We had a very relaxing time there, even through two exceptionally powerful storms two nights in a row. This was, probably, because we never lost the power, which was a relief to us since we were traveling with handicapped 92 y.o. Lisa was friendly and helpful and fast reacting when we called. Definitely, would love to come back some day

Beautiful, clean, welcoming, the best vacation rental!
The house was perfect for our family of 5. We felt so comfortable. It was spotless. We were amazed by the hospitality of the owners who provided beach towels and a cooler for our use. We would definitely love to go back and recommen it 100%. This had been our best experience with a vacation rental. Thank you Lisa and Michael!

Great for a getaway!
The property owner was always prompt with answering messages, and she seemed like she was nice. The house was clean and neat, and we were provided with everything we needed and more. We were even greeted with a box of chocolates and a bottle of wine!
We liked the little sunroom area off the dining room. It had a table and chairs to enjoy a cup of coffee.
The location was great for walking to the shops and restaurants in town, and even the lighthouse and beach.
I would have preferred blinds on the kitchen window and back door, but otherwise I don't have anything negative to say about this cute house.
