We were looking for "something different" for our short getaway, and the Ramble on Rose houseboat was a great choice. We enjoyed our experience both on the boat and in Port Clinton. Josh & Michelle are terrific hosts and left a sweet birthday surprise for me at our arrival! We stayed only 2 nights, which was just right for us, as the "cozy" space might have felt a bit too tight if staying longer. And we were surprised by how few of the Port Clinton restaurants were closed or only opened for dinner on Tuesday & Wednesday, given it was still summertime. Our benefit in being on the boat during the week was a quiet, private experience on the houseboat, pier, and bathhouse (which was quite spacious, well-built and well-maintained).
