    Overview

    This unique property on SR-2 in Port Clinton offers a combination of lodging, residential, commercial, and land-use opportunities. The motel features 10 guest rooms that have been fully gutted and remodeled and are currently operational. An on-site residence has also been fully gutted and remodeled, suitable for owner occupancy or management living quarters. A former restaurant structure presents the potential for reopening or conversion. A 52x80 heated metal building is ideal for a workshop, storage, or auxiliary business. The property includes waterfront access to a deep water creek/canal leading to Lake Erie, a rare amenity for lodging or recreation-oriented businesses. The 14.65-acre parcel provides ample room for expansion of the existing business or special-use development. A private sewer plant system services the entire property, and a dike system surrounds three sides of the parcel. The property benefits from high-visibility frontage on State Route 2, with easy access and significant drive-by traffic. The property has mixed-use flexibility, allowing for operation of lodging, revival of the restaurant, and use of the land for recreation development. The waterfront appeal and acreage offer possibilities for water-based activities, outdoor events, recreation, or hospitality-oriented uses. There is no zoning in Erie Township.
