I’ve stayed in a few different hotels this summer (including another well-known chain right by Cedar Point) and this was the best one of all of them: The room was very clean and I liked the layout and breakfast.

    The staff are friendly, pleasant, and efficient. The grounds are neat and tidy. The exteriors of buildings look nice. The cleaning staff provided smiles and fresh towels daily. Pets are allowed, which means a lot to families with furry loved ones and that option is hard to find in that area. The layout of the cottage works well. Nice to have dish and bath soap, utensils, dishes, microwave, toaster. Thanks for all of that!

    We really love the location. I mean it was basically right in the park. We absolutely loved the fact that they would allow us to take the electric scooters into the facilities and up to the room. The location right on the beach made for easy access as well as amazing access to the park. They also had really cool bike taxis that would cruise you up and down the boardwalk. Did

    I was there far too briefly to be able to say anything useful. I arrived about 9:00 p.m. and left the next morning at 7 a.m. I didn't see much of the town, except in the dark. I was happy that the grocery store was open late, because I had not eaten when I arrived.

    The ferry over was convenient and then once on the island there were several golf cart rental businesses within walking distance. Of course there were plenty of bars and restaurants and night life. Also, there were other things to do like visit the Perry monument, they had the Monarch festival, a winery to taste wine and relax. We also toured the island on a golf cart. There were other things to also do, but we were only there two days.

    My family has vacationed at Kelleys for 40 years.

    My family has vacationed at Kelleys for 40 years. It is family friendly with lots to do. I have never experienced any trouble on the Island. It's not cheap to rent a house there, plus you have the cost of the ferry, and you will want a golf cart. However, you could have a lower-cost vacation there if you park at the ferry and take bikes and backpacks over. You could also stay at the campground, which is fun and there is a beach right there.

    My friend came all the way from England to go to Cedar Point (he's a theme park enthusiast). While I won't speak for him, as an American, I was very disappointed with the park. $35 for parking a DAY (we did three days total) and we queued for 3 HOURS for Top Thrill 2. Between the fast pass people coming in and the ride being delayed/broken down, it was not worth the wait. I've never been to an amusement park where so many rides broke down/were delayed. This park was literally not worth the visit without a fast pass because the queues were so long otherwise. Also, almost all the queues had a spot exposed to the sun (even though the rest was shaded and some had misting fans; why wouldn't you shade the whole queue?!) so the heat was unbearable in certain parts. I don't think I'll be going back to Cedar Point.

    Port Clinton is an excellent 'summer visit' - plenty to do in-town, and easy access to ferries taking you to the Lake Erie Islands of Put-In-Bay and Kelleys. Clinton House is recommended for food and drink, and, if you time it right, entertainment!

    Nice and relaxing vacation spot.

    Nice and relaxing vacation spot. Rather expensive, but you have to expect that -- especially on an island where nearly everything is shipped in. There's much more to see and do than visit bars if you take the time to investigate. Goat Soup and Whisky is an excellent restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. The swim-up-to bars are always refreshing on a hot day.
