    Iced coffee
    Jarron M.

    Really nice atmosphere right by the lake, nicely decorated and welcoming. Staff is very nice and polite. Always have good coffee and pastries. The prices are good for the quality of product sold. Lots of good coffee syrups and flavors and rotating specials.

    Breakfast burrito

    Perfect cafe experience. Friendly staff. Excellent spiced vanilla latte. House brew choice today included banana nut bread flavored brew. Crazy yummy. Breakfast burritos were fresh and flavorful and grilled like a panini. Charming addition to our vacation.

    Just so happened to be in town visiting friends and after a long night of "fun" we all woke up hungry and headed to Vacavi Cafe. Such a lovely little place to visit! Child friendly, fast WiFi, friendly service and yummy items all over! Muffin was fantastic and the chia tea was to die for!!!! Can't wait to go back to Conneaut Lake to visit this place again.

    Really charming spot. Got a window seat with a view of the lake and a breeze through the screen. Very friendly staff and locals - everyone offered to help me navigate carrying my coffee with crutches. We stopped on our way from Pittsburgh to Niagra on the Lake, and would definitely do so again.

    Run down. The two…read morestars are for the location. If you're seeing a show here, you're about 20 feet from the hotel. Also, Chautauqua Institute is a lovely place. The room: peeling wallpaper, chipped paint, cracks in the floor and cracks in the ceiling, and floors so warped it's like a little skate park. The shower is small and dingy, also unlit. There's a light over the sink, but it's doesn't really reach the shower, especially with the shower curtain closed. The concert let out around 10:30, and we took a stroll around the grounds to skip rocks and look at constellations. When we got back to the hotel, bar closed. 11 on a Saturday night. Also no food to be had. Sunday morning continental breakfast was paltry at best. Even the coffee sucks, watery and tasteless. All this for the bargain price of about $400/night. For two of the crappiest double beds I've ever slept on. All that money is for the location.

    This hotel is old (1881), but it has tons of history and charm. That's why I love it so much. We…read morestayed here for the first time this year, and we've already reserved our room for the 2025 season. It's mind-blowing to walk down the same historic hallways that Ulysses S. Grant, Teddy Roosevelt, and Bill Clinton walked and stayed. We had a fantastic room at the end on the 2nd floor. It had been updated (see photos) and had a great view of the lake. There was even a charming porch area outside the room. The front desk staff were very polite, helpful, and quick to address issues. We loved our maid, too. She took care of our every need and made sure our room was cleaned properly. At the end of our visit, we asked her what some of her favorite rooms in the hotel were. She showed us each room and we reserved one for our 2025 visit. NOTE: I see that some of the less-than-stellar reviews knock the hotel for its restaurant, The Heirloom Restaurant. I agree that the food and service at the Heirloom are not that great and don't meet expectations for such a grand hotel. But I shared that in a separate 3-star review for the restaurant.
