The best tiny homes in Presque Isle

It's easy to see why Presque Isle is a National Natural Landmark. The 3,200-acre peninsula is a mesmerizing wild haven jutting from the shores of Erie, Pennsylvania. With year-round recreation options to spare, it's a must-visit on Lake Erie.

Ready to explore Presque Isle State Park? The 13 sandy swimming beaches and 21 miles of trails are a great start. You can also gawk at the pristine shoreline from Peninsula Drive—keep an eye out for the historic lighthouses. Canoeing, biking, inline skating, and hiking are a few other ways to see the park.

The park itself offers no camping since it's day use only. Luckily, the region boasts tons of private RV parks with full hook-ups and campgrounds with tent camping around Erie and Fairview. Fire rings, picnic tables, and even Wi-Fi are a few amenities to enjoy.

Once you've found your home base, discover the calm waters of Presque Isle Bay. The state park's 500-slip marina is ground zero for water skiing, wakeboarding or just cruising while ospreys fly overhead. Trout, muskie, and walleye fishing is also big here, so don't forget your tackle.

For viewing local wildlife, head to Gull Point Natural Area. Situated on the far end of Presque Isle, it's been named one of the best birding spots in the United States. You definitely want to bring your camera and binoculars.

Keep in mind Presque Isle isn't the only park in the area. Just 12 miles west of Erie, you come to Erie Bluffs State Park. Stop here to explore 5+ miles of trails and take in fantastic views from a 90-foot bluff.

While this Lake Erie paradise can get crowded, Memorial Day through Labor Day is still a great time to visit. The weather is warm, and recreation options such as state park rental bikes are still available.

Pennsylvania winters are cold and snowy, meaning many campgrounds are only open seasonally. On the other hand, a heated cabin gives you access to the region's best winter recreation. Ice fishing, cross-country skiing, and wind skating (think kite surfing meets ice skating) are just a few options.

Weekend Trip to Flannel Dog Farm

What a wonderful experience!!! From the start Alan and Chris were great communicators, which made my first time using this service so comfortable. Chris met us when we arrived and showed us around. She was amazing and asked about my partner’s dietary needs for both the charcuterie board I purchased and the breakfast that came with our stay. The farm itself was just as welcoming. The tiny home we stayed in was cozy and comfortable. We did not use the provided wood for the fire, but it was nicely stacked and ready for us if we chose to. We had the charcuterie on the first night and it was perfect. We were treated to a lovely spread of items that included Alan’s home made focaccia(soooo worth it!). The breakfast the next two mornings were worth the trip on their own. Alan had brought out coffee (delicious) for me and tea for my partner. The breakfast each morning was a spectacular way to start any day! We were also treated to a tour of Chris’s awesome studio and got to see some of her art, so cool. I would definitely recommend staying here and will probably follow my own advice again at a later day! Don’t hesitate, you are not going to regret staying with these amazing hosts!!

Weekend Trip to Flannel Dog Farm

As soon as I pulled onto the property, I could feel how special the farm was. WOW. The Peace Portal Tiny House took my breath away upon first sight - and I was so content just to read, write, eat (especially that insanely amazing breakfast, cooked by our hosts!), meditate, and soak up alllll the sights & sounds. From curious rabbits to croaking frogs, crowing roosters to lightning bugs zipping past my window as I rested in that cozy bed - it was everything I needed for an overnight getaway. Access to a half bath was AWESOME, as well as provided drinking water and an outdoor mini fridge, if needed. (Plus, it's only a mile to the lake!) Chris & Alan have created something truly special - and are PHENOMENAL, responsive, thoughtful hosts and human beings. STAY HERE! :-)

Weekend Trip to Tiny House | Nordic Spa | WIFI

We had the best time! Was late March and we visited for a birthday celebration to get away from the city (GTA). Was so nice to be able to go south instead of north for once! Further north was hit by a wicked ice storm the weekend we were there but since we avoided that area and went closer to Lake Erie. We made the best choice we could’ve given the weather conditions. It drizzled rain on and off the entire time we were there but it was a welcomed refresh between hopping from the sauna to the hot tub. Bring LOTS of wood. Sauna heats up very quick but hot tub is a process. The tiny home was very clean and cozy and offered everything we needed for two nights. We only cooked outside. Would recommend to anyone looking for a weekend away that feels like you’re hours away in the wilderness but really only an hour or two away from home. Property was beautiful and we watched lots of deer roaming the property. Perfect getaway in the woods for couples!
