Great House

Some friends and I had a great stay here. Plenty of space and a real comfortable atmosphere. The house is on a main road but set back far enough that you don't feel encroached upon.

Great Property and Home!

We had a great stay at this spacious home! We got married at the Tudor House only 10 minutes away, so it was a very convenient location. Communication with the owner was spot on and we had everything we needed when staying. Thank you for hosting us!

This house is extremely pet friendly with a lot of lawn space to walk your dog. The living room furniture is very comfortable and relaxing. There are two full bathrooms, one on the main level that has been renovated, and the other that has not been updated. The beds were comfortable and the house is very quiet. We were skeptical about the upstairs air-conditioning being sufficient, but were surprised that it cooled quite well despite not having central AC. Everything in the kitchen is fine. Coffee is provided along with a 12 cup coffee maker. There really aren’t any extras offered, as we had experienced at some other places. That said you can sleep quite a few people here and have a comfortable stay if being lakefront is not a must. It felt very safe, and we had no problem checking in or checking out.

Perfect house

A group of us were in Akron for the Canal Corridor 100 mile run and stayed here. It was the perfect location, with the perfect amenities! We even had our dogs with us, the yard is huge!

Comfy beds. Clean house. Great things to have when traveling. We spent our time mostly away from the house so the comfy beds were welcome! Our kids enjoyed the house and the rotating circular chair.

Great house ! Clean and inviting! We were comfortable and everything we needed was there for us. It is located in a centrally located area close to highways so we were easily able to travel to Cleveland in about 45 minutes and Canton in less than 25! Shopping and restaurants in under a mile! Would highly recommend this house! It was a great stay!

Clean, comfortable and close to everything

We had a wonderful stay here. The house is 2 miles from a beautiful park and within 15 mins to alot of Akron activities without being in the middle of the hectic city. House was clean and very comfortable. Plenty of space and a beautiful yard. Tyler was very easy to contact and quick to respond. Highly recommend!

Stayed while attending our family reunion event. It was a lovely with clean rooms and bathrooms. Nice kitchen with adequate kitchen utensils. Bit of a challenge with a long driveway with little room to turn around. Challenge to back into driveway off of a somewhat busy street. Location very good with restaurants and grocery store nearby. Lovely 6 day stay!

Great place!

Great place to stay and would not hesitate to stay there again!! We were in the area for a wedding, so didn’t spend a ton of our time there but actually would’ve liked to have had one more day just to chill at the house and around the fire pit. We enjoyed just sitting on the deck in the provided Adirondack chairs. The beds were comfy and we had all the supplies we needed! One of us even forgot a shirt that got accidentally mixed up in the bed linens, and the owner was happy to help get it back to us👍

Perfect Location

This place has a perfect location, and was in the middle of Everywhere we wanted to go. The property lot was large and had plenty of space for dogs. The beds were very comfortable, and the room sizes were great. The open floor plan was great as well. There were some things that needed to be maintained a little better such as some uneven flooring between rooms without transitions, and we found an outlet without a cover on it next to a bed. Which the floor was sharp in certain parts of the cracked tiles, which made it a little dangerous. However, overall, it was a great stay, and we enjoyed the location.

Overall it was ok. The place seemed clean.We really only used the place to shower and sleep. The upstairs bathroom shower curtain could’ve been changed it was dirty and the towels were dingy, a corner in the bathroom it looks like there is water damage and looks disgusting. There were also ants on the counter. I was afraid to put anything on it. I’m not use to staying somewhere that looks worst than where I live. I expected better for the price.

Quick family trip to Ohio

The house provided what we needed for a quick trip to Ohio with our dogs so we could attend a birthday party for my niece. The house is an older cute home that has been remodeled. I was a little nervous at first not knowing the area but everything was great with an Acme right down the road and places to eat nearby. The Portage Lakes State Park is close and a wonderful place to walk and has great disc golf course. The only thing we questioned was the security camera. We just would have appreciated a heads up on the camera, when we first saw the camera it made us a little nervous, but I also understand monitoring the outside area. Overall, the house was nice and worked for our visit to see family. I would rent here again in the future for additional family trips to ohio.

Hi Alexis thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay! The security camera is just strictly to keep an eye on the outside of the house (more so when no guests are there.) I will definitely add that to my welcome message so other guests are aware. Thanks again for your kind review.
