Arbor Lights Bed and Breakfast


  • 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..

    We were surprised at how wonderful our room was. It was gorgeous. Gerry was the perfect hostess & made my husband, my grandson & myself feel so welcome. The stuffed French toast was so yummy. We will be back.

    My husband and I had a fabulous 2-day getaway at this little bed-and-breakfast. Right across the street from lake erie and about 40 mins. from Cedar Point. Breakfast was AMAZING! Much better than anything you'd get at a restaurant. I would highly recommend Arbor Lights B&B. We had no problems, and everything was very clean and neat!

    I travel a good amount for work; this trip I decided to stay at Arbor Lights for a refreshing change of pace. The innkeeper was incredibly helpful and accommodating. I had a wonderful and relaxing stay!
