Inn Details

Welcome to Arbor Lights, a 2005 Lorain County Beautiful Award Winner, where we host not only our guests, but also pine, maple, oak and magnolia trees along with beautiful hydrangeas.
We are located on the 5th Nationally Designated Byway where stunning sunsets over Lake Erie, Ohio's greatest natural resource, are steps away.
Relax on the open veranda, stroll the 1.5-acre park-like grounds, or unwind by the water garden.
Period pieces abound, from a classic hardwood floor, stained glass entry doors, bay window, high ceilings and french doors. All of our guest rooms have a private bath, one of which has a whirlpool.
We are located 30 minutes from Cleveland Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Cedar Point Amusement Park and 15 miles from Oberlin College. Our bordering cities include Sheffield Lake, Vermilion, Amherst and Lake Erie to the north..
