LOCATION
Rubber City Retreat is conveniently located in Akron with access to the greater Akron/Canton area and within reach of Cleveland and Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
The location makes the home a convenient base for guests visiting family and friends, attending sporting events or other local activities, traveling for work, exploring Northeast Ohio, or simply enjoying a getaway.
GUEST ACCESS
Guests have private access to the main living areas of the home, including all guest bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, dining area, living areas, laundry area, and fenced backyard.
The garage and basement are private areas and are not included in the rental or available for guest access.
We want to make this distinction clear so that guests know exactly which areas are included with their reservation before booking.
Free on-site parking is available.
The home offers self check-in, and detailed check-in and access instructions will be provided prior to arrival to help make your arrival as smooth and convenient as possible.
ENJOYING THE HOME
Rubber City Retreat is meant to be enjoyed. We absolutely want our guests to spend quality time together, laugh, share meals, celebrate life’s moments, and make memories with family and friends.
Family gatherings and small get-togethers among registered guests are welcome.
What we do not permit are large parties, unauthorized events, excessive noise, disruptive activity, or unregistered overnight guests. Our goal is not to prevent guests from enjoying themselves; it is simply to protect the home and maintain a respectful environment for our neighbors and community.
Quiet hours are observed from 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM. During these hours, we ask guests to keep outdoor and indoor noise at a reasonable level out of consideration for the surrounding neighborhood.
PETS
We understand that pets are part of the family, too. Pets up to 50 lbs are welcome.
A $125 pet fee per stay applies and will be requested after booking if it is not automatically included with the reservation.
Please include your pet when making your reservation whenever the booking platform provides that option so we can make sure everything is properly documented before your arrival.
A HOME WE CARE ABOUT
Rubber City Retreat isn’t simply a rental property to us. It is a home that has been cared for and intentionally prepared so that other families, couples, friends, and travelers can enjoy it.
We ask that guests treat the property with the same care and respect they would want shown to their own home.
Our goal is to provide a clean, welcoming environment where you can unpack, relax, and enjoy your time in Northeast Ohio without feeling like you’re simply staying in another generic rental.
WE’RE HERE IF YOU NEED US
We respect our guests’ privacy and give you the space to enjoy your stay, but we’re available if you need assistance. If you have a question, concern, or special request, please reach out. We want to address questions promptly and help make your stay as comfortable as possible.
From family visits and business travel to weekend getaways and longer stays, we hope Rubber City Retreat becomes the kind of place you’re happy to return to.
More than a stay — an experience.

About the host
Hosted by Raquel Covington
Rubber City Retreat holds a very special place in my heart. It was the first home I purchased as a single mother—a new construction and an accomplishment that represented independence, perseverance, and creating something of my own during a time when the struggle was very real.
I chose the neighborhood with my children in mind, including its proximity to Archbishop Hoban High School, which was within walking distance. This became the home where I raised my family and where so many meaningful memories were made.
As life changed, I could never bring myself to let this home go. It holds memories of raising my children, including my late son, and represents an important chapter in our family’s story.
Today, I’ve given this special home a new purpose as Rubber City Retreat. Hosting allows me to share a place that means so much to me while creating a warm, comfortable space where others can make memories of their own.
To me, Rubber City Retreat has always been more than four walls. It’s more than a stay—it’s an experience.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood for its convenient Akron location and easy access to the surrounding area. It offers a comfortable residential setting while keeping guests close to local schools, hospitals, universities, dining, shopping, entertainment, and major roadways. The location makes Rubber City Retreat a convenient home base whether you’re visiting for family, work, sporting events, medical needs, or simply exploring Northeast Ohio.
What makes this property unique
Rubber City Retreat is designed to feel like a true home away from home—not just another place to sleep. Guests enjoy the privacy of a comfortable three-bedroom home, a fully equipped kitchen, inviting living spaces, a fenced backyard, and thoughtful touches throughout the property.
What really sets the home apart is the attention to the guest experience. From self check-in and smart-home conveniences to a welcoming atmosphere and carefully prepared spaces, the goal is to make every stay comfortable, easy, and memorable.
The home works especially well for families, professionals, extended stays, and guests who simply want more space and privacy than a hotel can provide. We take pride in the details and in creating a place where guests can settle in, relax, and truly feel at home.
Rubber City Retreat is more than a stay—it’s an experience.
