About this property
Minimalist House in Cuyahoga Valley National Park
Located inside the National Park, the house is surrounded by 10 acres of wildflower meadow. This house embraces simplicity and minimalism, a modern aesthetic, and a space to relax and connect the guests to nature.
Less than a mile from the quaint shops and artists of Peninsula as well as the towpath/bike-path, most of the best trials in the park are within a 10 minute drive.
If you appreciate nature, you will love the large windows and private location and a large front and back porch. Walk the nature path that circles the meadow to find the rare Green-fringed Orchids, nesting Blue-winged Warblers, frequent deer and coyote sightings, and much more.
This house is lived-in by the owner some months, so the many closets may be locked. A large-screen TV has a basic cable package included. Wifi is provided. Fresh sheets and towels provided, and all kitchen essentials are available as well.
This house isn't “polished.” Some of the drawers don’t open perfectly smoothly, some floorboards might squeak, there are boards behind the house for a construction project, etc. I LOVE the house, but it’s not a newly constructed luxurious place by any means. It’s being converted from a humble 1970’s home to something cleaner and more modern. Think simple rustic beauty, not luxury. It's only Motel 6 quality materials in some cases (floors, counters, fridge, trim), but with good minimalist design taste and a beautiful location.

About the host
Hosted by Matthew Studebaker

I'm a professional nature photographer, specializing in Alaska and Hawaii. If you are renting my house, chances are that I'm probably on assignment in one of those two places. Me and my 3 year old daughter (in the profile photo) and 5 year old son live here 5 months of the year.
