A comfortable place to have a vacation.

Beach in walking distance, very nice park in walking distance, and many resteraunts in a few minute drive (5 to 10). Places to do shopping, close to jet express, not a bad drive from cedar point, and if you love fishing the marina is close to grab a charter.
