Great Strip Location | Walk to Lake|Wine Country|A/C|Fireplace|Family Friendly

Home of the previous owners of the historic Eagle Cliff Inn property, Busch House is now available to host your next vacation to the North Shore! This private standalone home situated behind Eagle Cliff is perfect for larger groups or families, with 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths to comfortably accommodate up to 8 people. Located directly across the street from Lake Erie and providing amazing access to the Strip, the house also has several neat features inside including a full game room, baby grand piano, and double-sided fireplace, all creating the perfect setting for getting away to Geneva-on-the-Lake!
Busch House boasts queen beds and flat screen TVs in all four bedrooms. Prepare delicious home-cooked meals in the fully stocked kitchen equipped with coffee maker, microwave, dishwasher, cookware, plates, glassware, and silverware. Fresh towels and bath essentials are provided for your convenience in the bathrooms. A/C, cable TV, wireless internet, and full-size washer and dryer amenities add to the list of conveniences found in the home. And with the Strip right outside your door and Township Park just a short walk away, a full day of activities await. Grab your walking shoes and head down to the lake, explore the Strip, then stop by a winery for a relaxing sip before heading home to spend an evening playing ping pong or a game of cards by a cozy fire in the game room.
Of note for history buffs, the 140-year-old former Eagle Cliff Inn is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places and contributes over a century of historic significance to the Geneva-on-the-Lake area.
Larger groups looking for more space can book an additional suite at Eagle Cliff Inn here Eaglecliffinn.com
Check in is 4:00 p.m. and checkout is 11:00 a.m. Adjacent private driveway parking for up to 4 vehicles is easily accessible just off Lake Road.
Geneva-on-the-Lake in Ashtabula County, Ohio, is an old-fashioned lakefront getaway offering something for everyone, and Busch House is in an ideal location for walking and easy driving to attractions on the famous entertainment Strip and north shore.

• Restaurants, nightclubs, amusement rides, ziplines, live entertainment, arts, unique shopping, and arcades provide entertainment for everyone in your group, including evening concerts in Township Park.
• Play a round of golf at one of Geneva’s in-town or area golf courses. For family fun try one of the many miniature golf courses.
• Explore more than 20 Northeast Ohio wineries just minutes from Busch House – two within walking distance. The Ashtabula and Lake County grape-growing regions produce most of Ohio’s wine grapes, giving our area the reputation as the state's finest. And don’t forget about our famous covered bridges.
• Arriving by boat? Dock within the safety of the harbor at nearby Geneva State Park. And Lake Erie itself has so much to offer: Book a sunset cruise or a fishing charter. Swim at the State Park or stroll along the beach, then take a ride on the Ferris wheel. There are several restaurants and wineries right on the lake, and our spectacular sunsets offer the perfect subject for photo enthusiasts.

The property was very clean and conveniently located. We had an issue with the fridge not cooling and a tech was sent immediately. Within a half hour we were good to go. Propert Mgr was very timely and quick with response. Recommend staying with this group. This was our 2nd year in a row and plan to do it annually. Big shout out to the team.

Great property with small deficiencies
House was clean. Owner was very responsive. Great location Lots of parking. Comfortable, large family room. Loved the ping pong table although lighting is bad in the room. Basic items missing: hangers, cutting board, wine/bottle opener, pitcher, plates for 8, kitchen table seating for 8 (there were folding chairs that we added to the table but space was tight).

Disappointing
This is the only bad review I’ve ever made. We’ve always been happy and use VRBO on a regular basis (2nd time in the last 2 weeks). I made the reservation and was very embarrassed. I like a dated house as long as it is clean. This place was gross. One broken lamp with a single light bulb to light a living room large enough to fit a grand piano. Dirty bathroom floor. Dirty box fan sitting on my bedroom floor. Full mattress on a queen frame that was hidden under the bedspread. A real shin buster in the middle of the night. Of course there were no bedside lamps. I had to wipe down crap from a previous guest that had ran down a folding chair that I used in the game room. I was a little surprised since this place got good reviews. It looked like this place went through a busy summer season and never got a good cleaning. Why did I pay a cleaning fee? Good thing: clean towels and sheets, great location, one renovated bath. This place has so much potential. So sad.

Great location!
The property was perfect for our group of ladies. The access was easy and accommodations were wonderful. We loved the nice new shower with plenty of hot water and ample amout of towels. This property is in wine country, however there was no corkscrew. :( The lighting in the living room was very poor. The front patio was awesome for sitting and enjoying our coffee.

Unknown bites after stay
We stayed for a single night at the property this past Sunday. The host was easy to communicate with and check in was easy. Host was gracious enough to allow us to leave our cars while we went to the wineries before check in. However, the property is very old without many updates. 2 of the 5 people in our group elected to go home instead of stay at the property as they were not impressed with the age and cleanliness. The 3 of us that decided to stay woke up the next morning with bites in clusters (indicative of bed bugs) on our legs and back. We all started in one bedroom, so I cannot comment on the rest of the rooms, but clearly something was in the first bedroom off the bathroom that would’ve given us these bites. I am planning to follow up with VRBO as well. Awesome location, awesome host communication, not so awesome cleanliness/age of home.

Great for Groups!
My friends and I stayed here for a bachelorette trip and this house was perfect. There were several restaurants and bars right next to the house and the rest were all a short walk down the strip, less than 10 minutes. The house is bare bones and not the cutest, but it was clean, the bedrooms were decent sized, AC and the common areas are big enough to gather with 8 people for games. The property managers are local so they were able to help when we had an issue occur that was no fault of their own and they went above and beyond to fix it. I would definitely stay here again with a large group!
