The location was stunning, the accommodations were fabulous and my family had a wonderful time. My 3-year old grand niece said she wanted to stay forever! Will certainly recommend to everyone interested in a trip to Ashtabula.
The property was beautiful , Inside and out! The hot tub, corn hole, fire pit and the scenery, were perfect for outside entertainment!! Our group of girls have been doing these getaways for over 20 years, and this stay was definitely one of our favorites!! Great and easy communication with the owners Would definitely recommend and we hope to be back next year!!
This was our second time staying here and honestly it is BREATHTAKING. The hosts are absolutely amazing and so accommodating and responsive. It is now a family favorite and we will be coming back again and again!!!! I only wish we knew about this place sooner!!
What an outstanding place to stay!! The hosts have thought of everything. The views are absolutely stunning. And they were prompt answering any questions. 10/10 for everything!! Thank you Rachel and Bill for providing such a lovely get away for our girls weekend!
This is our favorite place to stay when in the Ashtabula area!Very clean and comfortable with amazing views!Can’t say enough about the hosts, very friendly and communicate very well!
Beautiful accommodations with roomy outdoor seating along with a great hot tub in a serene setting. Owners very accommodating and pleasant to deal with. Would definitely recommend for a peaceful stay.
Easily one of the best hosts we’ve ever had! Views are beautiful, the suite is comfy and homey. The owners put so much thought into details that made our stay above and beyond. Lots of fuzzy blankets, candles around the home and even a vase of fresh flowers and muffins for us! Our bed was so comfortable… I got great sleep! They were so communicative and accommodating. They have made a return customer out of us! We can’t wait to come back! Oh and let’s not forget the hot tub. So relaxing to sit in there and take in the views and sounds of nature. Absolutely wonderful stay! 10/10!
Pictures cant describe the beauty of the place and its surroundings all i could do is just dream of having a place like this one, just BEAUTIFUL IS ALLNI CAN SAY
This is such a cute house. Very homey and comfortable. Great views off the deck and central to a lot of hiking and points of interest. The owners dogs made me feel at home. I took my dogs with us. They had a great time hiking. Who knew there was so much beauty near Ashtabula! Would recommend.
We greatly enjoyed our time in the lodge, which was spacious, homely, and fully accommodating. The hot tub, cornhole, and river/nature proximity were especially enjoyable. Bill and Rachel were very friendly and communicative. We'll be back!
The property is amazing. The house is clean and had everything we needed. Hiked along the river. Beautiful property. Host was great. Would stay again.

About the host
Hosted by Bill Wall
Hello my name is Bill. I was born in Ashtabula Ohio. I designed and built this house. Took 3 years to build. Everyone that stays here enjoys it very much. They say it’s nicer than the pictures. We are adding extra amenities as time goes on.
Why they chose this property
It’s quiet here in our sleepy small town. Rolling green hills and rustic country side feel. Our neighborhood has a small town feel with wide open spaces. Famous for our beautiful wine country and Indian trails. We love our River.
What makes this property unique
The River view is spectacular here.
