An adorable cabin with a gorgeous lake view and peaceful scenery, stocked with fun little amenities (plenty of games and supplies for fire-building), respectful neighbors, and easy check-in/check-out. Thank you for the lovely stay!

Oakwood Beach - Lake Front - Geneva-On-The-Lake
Had a lovely stay with the family. Everyone was very comfortable and had plenty of space to themselves. We especially loved the fire pit and outdoor room. Close to stores and town. Great place, would definitely stay again.

The Lakehouse
Our stay went perfectly and were in a perfect location. Close to restaurants, shopping, and a grocery store. Bill was very easy to work with and I never needed to reach out to ask any questions.

BOHO Bungalow Lake Erie-Wine/GOTL & BULA
This was our second time at Amy’s house! We absolutely love it. The house is perfectly located and to top it off it’s right near the water so we got to see some beautiful sunsets. We will definitely be back! Thanks again for having us!

The View! Hot Tub-Golf Cart-Beaches-Billiards-King
House was clean and cozy. The backyard was beautiful with nice grassy area for dog. I stayed M-Th so the bar next door was not busy or noisy. Internet is fast. I had to work a couple days with no issues. Friendly people and good food for small town. Had oysters from Noosa Bistro and coffee from Julbeans. Walked to the Fairport Harbor Lakefront Park everyday. Walked my dog to Veterans Memorial Park. Visited Headland Dunes State Nature Preserve.

We really enjoyed our time at Sharon's. It was cozy and peaceful and the muffins were a great touch and so delicious! The bed was comfortable. Sharon and her husband were fun, lively and responsive! There are so many parks and nature preserves nearby. Would recommend!

Lake Life
Having stayed at this condo complex in the past, I have to say that Unit 110 is probably the nicest and most comfortable. It was quiet, clean and so comfortable. The view from the first level windows feels like you are in a cruise ship. Debbie the manager does a great job communicating and arranging winery transportation at a reasonable rate.

Lakeside Chalet | Private Lake | Hot Tub | Views
Amazing place with great views and plenty to do around the farm! Workers on the farm were very polite and welcoming. Chelsea was extremely responsive and quick to address our questions. Hoping to be back soon!

Madison on the Lake Home w/ pool in wine country!
The host was great. We are so glad we were able to rent this house. It was a gem and great for a bachelorette party. It had an inground pool, privacy fence, outdoor seating and conveniently located. We would rent again.

lake house 2
Wendy's Lakehouse was exactly what my husband and I needed for our mini-retreat after our daughter's wedding. We were mentally, physically, and emotionally exhausted when we arrived; but after a couple of days of complete quiet and privacy in the house, walking and laying on the private beach, listening to the water, watching the sunsets, and basking in the fresh Lake Erie breezes: we felt restored and refreshed. The only thing that disappointed us was that we couldn't stay longer... life rolls on! 😅 Within hours of our arrival we were making plans to return- next time with our 4 sons- as soon as possible! We even were dreaming about bringing future grandkids in years to come! 🥰 Thank you, Wendy, for providing this peaceful retreat!

Extraordinary getaway, River Oaks
This 2 bedroom home with fantastic deck and river access was perfect for our stay in Geneva. The area was very quiet, the house well furnished and the views were spectacular.

Ashtabula Harbor Retreat
Jessica was super accommodating and went above and beyond to make our stay great. The backyard was perfect for our dogs, everything was clean, and she even brought in our Amazon packages and got desks for my husband to work. Quiet, peaceful spot—walkable to Walnut Beach Park if you’re up for it. A bit small and minimal, but overall a great stay while we were in town for a dog competition.

Charming Conneaut Ranch near Lake, Beaches & Parks
GREAT PLACE! Elijah was wonderful - answered my questions immediately. This house was terrific - had everything one needed.( I especially liked that he had plenty of Kleenex boxes. ). 😊. Most places we’ve stayed at had NONE! We will always return to this home when visiting Conneaut. It was perfect.

Rosko Ranch close to Lake Erie, Wineries and GOTL!
The place was cute, clean and nice. Provided all that we needed. Host was super quick to respond to all questions and concerns.

Endless Summer Cottage - walk to the GOTL strip
April and Camri's cottage is absolutely beautiful. Cozy, wonderfully decorated, super clean and within walking distance to the GOTL strip.

Cheerful Blue House on Geneva On The Lake
Gary was a very responsive host! We loved the charm of the home, as well as the ease of a single level ranch for our three wise senior travel companions, and three small dogs. Would highly recomend this home and neighborhood. We even got the privilege to meet Buckeye the neighbor's gentle giant dog! We love hosts like Gary it's why we choose Airbnb for most all of our travel needs! I can see us returning to this perfect property!

Lake View Cottage ~ GOTL | Wineries | Spire
I've stayed at countless Airbnbs over the years, and this has been hands-down the best experience yet. Alexa goes above and beyond to make her home feel truly special and welcoming. From chilled waters in the fridge to thoughtful snacks on the counter, coffee creamer ready to go, and stocked bathroom amenities — every detail is taken care of. Unlike many Airbnbs that cut corners to save money, Alexa does the exact opposite. Everything in the home feels luxurious, from the plush towels and comfortable beds to the cozy blankets and even the quality toilet paper! It’s clear she genuinely cares about her guests’ comfort. If you're looking for a stay that combines warmth, comfort, and top-notch hospitality, I can't recommend Alexa's place enough. Absolutely outstanding!

Lovely home, booked for a family member so we could show them around they had no complaints ! Beautiful !

2-bedroom cottage right off famous GOTL Strip!
This little cottage was perfect for our quick holiday getaway. Nearly everything was provided -linens, plates, bandaids - even toothbrushes if forgotten. It’s located right off the main strip making it an easy walk to many restaurants, shops and playgrounds. The front porch is cozy - at night you can sit and hear all the live music pretty late! Thank you Thomas for your hospitality!

Your guide to Geneva-on-the-Lake
Introduction
Given Geneva-on-the-Lake’s long-standing reputation as a family-friendly getaway, it’s no surprise to learn that the town was more or less established thanks to the installation of a carousel. This was back in the 1870s, shortly after a plot of land at modern-day Mapleton Beach on Lake Erie was cleared for recreation and opened as a public picnic spot with beach access. Once the horse-powered carousel was put in, a few years later, it was official: Geneva-on-the-Lake was established as Ohio’s first summer resort — a proud claim that has remained on the town’s welcome sign ever since. The original carousel still stands (it’s now a half-mile west), as do many of the charming lake cottages that were built to accommodate pleasure-seekers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Though Geneva-on-the-Lake has sprouted hotels, spas, restaurants, wineries, and golf courses in the ensuing years, it’s still very much the same friendly, small-town resort it has always been.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Geneva-on-the-Lake
Geneva-on-the-Lake is perched on the southern shore of Lake Erie, where the so-called lake effect rules the weather forecast. Summer is true to the calendar: It lasts from June through September with warm, humid, and partly cloudy days stretching into the 80-degree Fahrenheit range. Winters are freezing (or just below), generally overcast, and often quite windy, given the city’s proximity to the Great Lakes, so a heavy winter coat is recommended. Spring and fall temperatures can vary drastically. Snow can fall as late as May or as early as October, and balmy days might pop up in March or as late as November. If you’re staying in one of the area’s vacation rentals during the shoulder seasons, pack layers just in case.
Top things to do in Geneva-on-the-Lake
Geneva State Park
Spanning nearly 700 acres just west of Geneva-on-the-Lake, Geneva State Park encompasses a large sandy beach on Lake Erie, as well as freshwater marshes, creeks, and hiking and biking trails along the lake. Fishing and boating are incredibly popular here, as are the inland campgrounds.
The Strip
Cruising through Geneva-on-the-Lake along State Route 531 feels like stepping back in time. Arcades, hot dog stands, and lively pubs line the mile-long road known affectionately as the Strip, where mom-and-pop retail shops and neighborhood eateries welcome both visitors and regulars. Big crowds descend on this stretch the weekend after Labor Day, when the Thunder on the Strip festival draws thousands of motorcyclists from all over the country.
Ashtabula County Covered Bridges
True to Midwestern architectural tradition, 19 beautiful covered bridges can be found scattered throughout Ashtabula County, six of which date to the 1860s. The closest to Geneva-on-the-Lake is the Liberty Street Bridge, which is the shortest covered bridge in the country: It carries cars just 18 feet across Cowles Creek.
