About this property

Crank Up Your Summer...Upgrade Your Stay

  • If the Lake is calling to you this summer we've got the perfect answer...Take in dramatic lake views a fully appointed kitchen and room to sleep up to six. Ditch the hotel room and opt for a 2 bedroom, 2 full bath upgrade. Cedar Point, the Lake Erie Islands, and historic downtown all await. Jet Express and great restaurants are steps away. Local Beach access via car or ferry. Crank up your summer...Upgrade your stay!!!!

Great location, super clean! Check in isn’t bad, just had trouble with the code for a bit, but it’s gated and super safe and in a nice part of Sandusky. Mark was an excellent host, quick and easy to communicate with. We were in town for a VB tournament, Cedar Point and a day trip to PIB. Great location for our itinerary.

Amazing place to stay

If you're a group of adults visiting Sandusky (yes we were there for Cedar Point), this place is an excellent choice. The location is honestly perfect, right on the water, steps from the restaurants and nightlife. The view from the main room of the lake is great and we spent our mornings basking in the sunshine. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms big.The owner was super helpful (especially when I had some unrelated trouble) and even the guys manning the parking lot entrance were friendly.Highly recommend

Super Stay in Sandusky

Mark’s Apartment at the Chesapeake Lofts was perfect for our family of four. The place was spotlessly clean and the location can’t be beat. Great views of Lake Erie and Cedar Point from the living room/terrace. Plenty of options for dining and drinks within walking distance from the apartment and Cedar Point is about a 10 minute drive away! We absolutely loved our trip to Sandusky and would highly recommend Mark’s place for your stay if visiting.

Wonderful!

This is our third or fourth stay with this host. This time it was a different loft, but equally wonderful. We already have next year booked! Great, beautiful getaway! Would love to get an overnight in before next year. Very peaceful.

Cedar Point Getaway

Ended up booking this instead of a park hotel, and so glad I did Great location, lot of shops and restaurants within walking distance, and the pool was fantastic after a hot day at Cedar Point. The residence was absolutely spotless and exactly as pictured online. Thank you for such a fun stay! (We didn't have any bedding for the sleeper sofa which we needed to use but luckily the kids had brought some sleeping bags.)

HalloWeekends with the Fam

We greatly enjoyed our stay. We decided to book this condo instead of a hotel. It was worth it for the price which would have been similar to booking two rooms and we saved money being able to cook. The condo is very nice with an awesome view of the lake and you can also see Cedar Point across the lake. Of course driving to Cedar Point from here is very convenient. Mark was great with all the details we needed for our stay. I would definitely stay here again.

great location-a few items need clarification

Stayed with group of older former teachers. Loved view, spacious condo. Could not find fob for pool. not noted on any of instruction papers. Found it around corner from entrance door on our way out. That location really needs to be included on the pool instruction sheet. The photos of condo showed an island with stools, which we had planned to use for our cocktail hour with snacks etc. Photos should be updated to reflect that the island is gone and a small table with chairs is there instead. The two instruction sheets need to be updated and laminated. The condo is very nice, but is lacking in end tables or a coffee table etc. Overall, we had a great time, but we just offer a few suggestions to improve the experience.

Property just as it is listed. We stayed for 4th of July and saw at least 4 firework shows out the balcony! Everything in this rental is new. Kitchen was stocked with what we needed. The teens complained about the comfort of the twin beds, but the main bed was fine. The pool was great and everyone was friendly down there. Parking was fine most of the days, but was completely full around the holiday. Feels safe and secure with gated parking and keys for main entry and condo. Wish there was a way to have a couple chairs on the balcony and wish there was more light in the bedrooms. Overall, probably the cleanest and nicest VRBO we have rented. We would definately rent again if we are in the area!
