On the beach

1 of 13

One house out of the thirteen is actually on the sand. If being able to see the water from the kitchen is the point of the trip, this is the only one that does it.

The Rye Beach community

3 of 13

A private community immediately east of Huron, built around its own three-and-a-half acre park. Three of the homes are inside it, and all three take dogs. The neighborhood water entry is rocky rather than sandy — worth knowing before you picture a beach day.

          Where the thirteen homes are, by area A diagram of Huron, Ohio on the Lake Erie shore. Lake Erie lies to the north. Four shaded circles show the neighborhoods the homes are in and how many are in each: on the beach, the Rye Beach community east of town, Huron's private-beach neighborhoods west of the river mouth, and central Huron and inland to the south. Cedar Point and Sandusky lie west, Vermilion east, each about twenty minutes away. The same information is in the list and the comparison table on this page.

          Lake Escape Rentals

          The homes

          How many vacation rentals do you have in Huron, Ohio?

          Thirteen, all of them in Huron or in the private Rye Beach community immediately east of town. They range from two-bedroom cottages sleeping four to a seven-bedroom beachfront house that sleeps sixteen, and between them they have 43 bedrooms.

          Which home sleeps the most people?

          The beachfront house with the private heated pool: seven bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms and sixteen guests, with a seven-night minimum in summer and three nights off-season. The Crossing is the next largest at eleven.

          Which of your homes are pet-friendly?

          Five of the thirteen accept dogs. Two take a maximum of two dogs with a pet fee, one needs a deposit and prior approval, one simply welcomes dogs, and the farmhouse on two acres takes horses as well. The other eight do not accept pets at all.

          Do any of the homes have a pool?

          One. The beachfront house has a private heated in-ground pool at the back and sand at the front. None of the other twelve has a pool.

          Can I bring a boat or a trailer?

          Yes, at several. The Crossing is half a mile from Huron’s free four-lane public boat ramp, where neither launching nor trailer parking costs anything. Cozy Cottage has a 47-foot driveway, the Nickel Plate house parks four cars plus a boat and trailer, and the farmhouse has boat parking on its two acres.

          Are the beaches sandy?

          Some are and some are not, and we would rather you knew before booking than after arriving. The beachfront house sits on sand. Several of the private neighborhood beaches have a rocky entry and those homes are marked. Nickel Plate Beach, the 21-acre public beach in town, is sand, and a number of the homes are within a mile of it.

          Which part of Huron should we stay in?

          If you want the water itself, the beachfront house or the private-beach neighborhoods west of the river mouth. If you want a quiet community with its own park and you are bringing a dog, the Rye Beach community east of town. If you are bringing a boat, central Huron, near the free public ramp. Everywhere in Huron is within about twenty minutes of Cedar Point.

          How far is Cedar Point from your homes?

          About twelve miles, or roughly twenty minutes, from all thirteen — Huron is small enough that the choice of house barely changes the drive. Allow longer on summer weekends and at park opening, when the causeway backs up.

          What are check-in and check-out times, and what does it cost?

          Check-in is 4:00 PM and check-out is 11:00 AM at all thirteen homes. Cancellation terms and minimum stays are set per property rather than sitewide, and nightly rates depend on your dates and the length of the stay — check the dates on the home you are interested in, or ask Marcy and she will tell you.

          Still deciding

          Not sure which one?
          Just ask.

          Tell Marcy the dates, the headcount and what you are planning, and she
          will say which of the thirteen fits — and which one does not.

          See you by the lake.
