2BR Home: Modern & Classic Near Nature Preserves & Historical Gems! and Hospital
Envision arriving at a quaint, welcoming 2-bedroom house nestled in the heart of Newark, Ohio, where classic charm meets modern comfort. As you step through the door, the warmth of polished hardwood floors greets you, leading you through an inviting living area bathed in natural light. The house whispers stories of historic elegance, accentuated by contemporary touches like stainless steel kitchen appliances where family meals become a chef's delight, and two full baths promise relaxation and privacy.
Picture mornings spent sipping coffee in the breakfast nook, afternoons exploring nearby historical sites like the awe-inspiring Newark Earthworks, and evenings unwinding in a cozy living room or strolling to Flory Park. Each room, a blend of modern functionality and timeless beauty, is a backdrop to memories waiting to be made. Here, every detail—from the gentle clink of dishes in the kitchen to the soft closing of the historical jail's door nearby—contributes to the story of your peaceful retreat.
Imagine the stories that walls of such a well-placed home could tell, with the Licking Memorial Hospital's promise of care nearby, the Spring Valley Nature Preserve's call to adventure, and The Works' beckoning to curious minds. This home isn't just a stay; it's a gateway to a journey through the comfort of home and the thrill of Newark's historical heartbeat.

Thank you so much for the kind review. We are truly glad the home provided a cute, cozy, and comfortable place to relax while you were in town for the tournament. It was a pleasure hosting your group, and we sincerely appreciate the care and courtesy shown during your stay. We would be happy to welcome you back anytime.
The price on the listing is a bit misleading. The listing indicates it can sleep 5, but doesn't indicate that the price is only for 2 - you will pay a fee for each "additional guest." The house itself was tidy and generally well-kept. The water pressure was great and it was nice to have a bathtub for children. The house had all the essentials and we didn't need for anything. We lost power for a bit during a storm and the hosts had already had flashlights available and ready to go. We would stay here again!

The host was amazing, responded quickly and even decorated with lights and a tree for our cozy Christmas vacation! Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. I would stay here again the next time I come back to Ohio to see family and friends. Awesome experience!
The house was built in 1895 and had been wonderfully renovated. Very clean and fresh, modern kitchen and bathrooms. Very nicely appointed and decorated.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
the house was partially renovated. The portions in the pictures online are accurate but what you dont see is the cheap shop rags that were provided for "wash clothes", the rotting wood on the eaves over the back porch, the unfinished room upstairs that doesn't have a door on it, the ants in the wood on the back porch that get into the house, and the sink in the downstairs bathroom that does drain.there is 1 tv only and the parking situation is ridiculous. I would not recommend this place as it is. It has potential, and if some of these issues are resolved, it could be a nicer place to stay.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your stay did not fully meet your expectations.
We appreciate you pointing out the areas that need attention. Since your stay, we are reviewing the items mentioned, including the bathroom sink drainage, exterior porch/eave concerns, pest prevention, and guest linens. We take these comments seriously and will address anything that needs repair or improvement.
Our listing photos are intended to accurately show the renovated and available guest spaces, but we also understand that the overall guest experience includes details beyond the photos. Your feedback helps us improve the home and provide a better stay for future guests.
We’re sorry again that your experience fell short, and we appreciate you recognizing that the home has potential.
Very nice spacious and clean! Beds are comfortable. Conveniently located and has everything needed for a week stay. Management is easy to communicate with and reply back quickly. Only con…. If you’re looking for quiet…. This is located directly on a busy main road.

Thank you for the thoughtful review. We’re glad you found the home spacious, clean, comfortable, conveniently located, and well equipped for a longer stay.
We also appreciate your kind words about our communication and responsiveness. You are correct that the home is located on a main road, which can be convenient for access to nearby areas but may not be ideal for guests seeking a very quiet, tucked-away location. We appreciate you mentioning that honestly for future guests.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime.
