Super close to the Marblehead Lighthouse. They have many outdoor sitting and eating areas and a fire pit for your use. We walked over to the water and found lots of fossils embedded in the limestone which was so fun. Did have a nasty neighbor, Mr. Dorko, (I identified him through social media and property tax info) come over and yell at us about property lines while my daughter was playing in the water. He also used a bright spotlight to shine on my adult daughter while she was sitting by the water around dusk on another evening. Other than the a**hole neighbor, very highly recommended! We'll definitely be back!

My favorite place in the world, no exaggeration. Lakeside is a Chautauqua which is a sort of…read moreprotected town overseen by a community board in order to preserve its historic charm. The entire town is filled with small cottages old and new. People usually will rent a cottage here for a week in the summer as a vacation home. My family has done this for 40 years. We owned a house within the gates for over 30 years as well. The community is shimmering with kindness. Everyone traveled by bikes and golf carts within the gates, if you forgot your bike I'm certain someone will lend you one for the day, or you can rent you golf cart from Syphred cycles. The town is entirely gated and guarded 24/7. You must purchase a day pass to enter the grounds. The result is that the town is extremely safe. I have been allowed to wander to grounds and ride my bike around alone since I was 5 years old. There are quaint candy shops and other nice stores to shops around. Several tasty restaurants and a beautiful Pier and beach. tons of stuff for kids to do including 3-4 parks, shuffleboard, and an amazingly beautiful lakefront path. I come here every year for 4th of July so this town holds some deep nostalgia for me. I have brought tens of friends here over the years and it is indescribably lovely. I'd advise anyone to come to Lakeside

Costs $20.00 per adult person and $5.00 for parking. Lakeside community is beautiful and quaint. Step back to the 1950s and enjoy life with swimming, shuffleboard, horseshoes, sailing, sand volleyball, basketball, nightly music, shopping, and dining. Dry community so no alcohol. We didn't see many people of various ethnicities and races other than white. Enjoyed walking on docks, visiting shops, shuffle board, Hawaiian ices, lunch at The Hotel, and walking all around. Wonderful day!

We stayed there over the 4th and we could hear every footstep in room above. Toilets had no seat tops and beds were not comfortable. Worst of all, all communication was via texting!

Microwave and tiny fridge in room. Good water pressure even on 3rd floor. This one was a deal breaker for me: the beds are super hard (some people may like this, I am not one of them) and the bedding wasn't comfortable. Looked worn, sheets were scratchy. Other: decor is dated looking, window coverings were worn, the bar felt like an afterthought, and the breakfast buffet was better then a standard continental breakfast. Breakfast is NOT included with the stay, but there is a discount for hotel guests. We were scheduled for 2 nights and only stayed one. The bed was really our major complaint, but it was a huge deal for us. A good night's sleep is important and I didn't get it. There's a lot to like here, but the bed was such a negative for us that I couldn't recommend the place to friends or family.

They double booked our room TWICE, and almost gave away the room we had booked a month ago to someone who "booked" it last night, while we were standing at the front desk. The reception staff was not very pleasant during this issue (my mother in law handled most of it and was not rude - she doesn't have a rude bone in her body). And according to other guests, other rooms had been double booked as well. We were able to get a room (thank god! Otherwise we'd have had to sleep in the car!), but they were not as apologetic or "let me make this right," as I (a person who's worked in customer service) thought they should have been. The owners were nicer, but the staff is just disorganized. If you book on a busy weekend in July, be prepared to be told that they have no record of your reservation and that your room (that you've already paid for) has been booked by someone else.

Do not ever stay here. This is a historic hotel that is in great need of TLC. We were so looking…read moreforward to our stay, but found it to be dingy and dirty. Our first room was very small and cramped, had black moldy caulk in the shower, spiders on the ceiling, one window had NO window covering, rotting spot on wall, a "full" size bed that felt like a single bed. We had to ask for a sheet to hang over the exposed window. We asked to be moved to another room. The lady at the front desk gave us pushback even though it was slow season and hardly anyone was there. My husband insisted and they moved us to another room. It had a little more space, a queen size bed that was clean and bathroom was nice and clean. The rest of the room UGH! Gross, dirty air conditioning split that looked like it had not been cleaned for years, MANY spiders and bugs in every ceiling corner, stained light shades, dusty ceiling fan. One thing I need when traveling is a clean room. Elbow grease, paint and regular maintenance would go a long way helping this property. This is the worst hotel we have ever encountered. This was our first visit to Lakeside. I am sad for the Lakeside Community that the hotel is in such disrepair. The historic hotel deserves better. We ended up leaving and staying at a hotel in Port Clinton. It was a relief to be out of the Hotel Lakeside.

As much as I love Lakeside, I have to give Hotel Lakeside a thumbs down. While I realize it's…read moredesigned to be a step back in time, it still needs to be functional, safe, and clean. We had a hugely disappointing experience with a bed that creaked loudly every time you barely moved (no sleep for us), no hot water the entire time we were there, topped of with an unclean bathroom and dusty fan. There were no grab bars in the bathroom (despite the advanced age of most of the guests), thin towels, and dirty carpet throughout the hotel. No hangers in the wardrobe and a very tiny dresser with minimal storage. There were literally no shelves or flat surfaces in the bedroom or bathroom for storage other than a shared bedside table. The hotel maintenance staff did address the issue with the bed, however, the bed was left pulled out in the middle of the room after repair and felt like an unfinished project. The hotel was understaffed and those who were working were overwhelmed and unprepared to help patrons. I'll be back to Lakeside as it holds a special place in my heart but won't stay here. Makes me sad as I can see that if the original hotel continues to decline, it will go so far down that it will be razed at some point. With as many people who enter Lakeside and the cost to enter the grounds, I know the Association can do better than this.
