We just wanted to get away with our pets within two hours of Cleveland, and this fit the bill. Great local patios that are dog friendly. Cons would be:
nowhere to walk the dogs (the complex is small and the streets have no sidewalks)
and the pool is a 10-minute drive away

Hi Sharon,
Thanks for the review. Our property has sidewalks all around it for dog walking. Next time be sure to check out the dog park at “Floral Valley”, just one mile away. In addition there are countless miles of parks all around us. We look forward to having you back!
We were there a short period of time before my child got sick, and we had to leave. Nice inside - bigger than I thought. Owner was easy to correspond with. Was fine for kids, but best suited for golfing retreats. Need to drive to water/pool, etc.

Hi Scott,
We are so sorry your trip was cut short. We would love to have you back anytime.
Families love our property for the access to the swimming pools and the beaches! Other than property owners, only our guests have access the amazing amenities that Apple Valley Lake offers!
Try us in the fall and winter months!…the peaceful tranquility and the amazing indoor pool faculty are sure to please families.
Best regards,
The Pine of Apple Valley
Spacious house. Nice comfy beds. Nice area. Only recommendation would be to add solar lights to tops of posts where condo numbers are on apple’s for people coming in after dark. Tough to see numbers in the dark. Also some darker bedroom blinds would be great for early summer sunshine coming in windows. Great place for family

Kathleen,
It was a pleasure hosting you and your Family. I will pass on your recommendations to add outside lights for the Unit numbers, and blackout shades for the bedrooms. Look forward to your next visit.

Overall we had a good experience. The area was very quiet and just a 5 minute drive from the beach which was nice.
We were a little disappointed in the cleanliness of the condo. We have an infant who is crawling and within 10 minutes of being in the condo, her feet and hands were black. My wife and I went around and wiped up all the floors.
Also, when we first got to the property, someone working the grounds walked in our condo without knocking. He was very apologetic, but it still made us a little uneasy.

Hi Malcolm,
Thank you for your review!
Rest assured, the floors in our units are vacuumed and then steam cleaned between each guests. As our “welcome letter” states, we want to hear about any issues immediately, so we can resolve them. I wish you would have let us know.
Our cleaning inspector may have been the person who came by. They always knock before entering just in case. Sorry for any intrusion!
We would love to have your family back anytime.
Best regards,
The Pines of Apple Valley
Our party consisted of four adults and two preteens. Our unit was clean, comfortable and spacious. The living room furniture was comfortable and the beds were wonderful. I would love to know the brand of the mattresses. They are very comfortable. Much more comfortable than our mattress at home. The property is also peaceful and quiet.
Our kitchen had a medium and small stainless steel pan and a large non-stick skillet, as well as a glass baking dish. If you're going to cook large meals, I would suggest bringing a couple items from home, such as a slow cooker or large pot, but this worked for us. Plus, there are charcoal grills on the property and there are several restaurants nearby in Mt. Vernon. In the past, I've brought pressure cookers, slow cookers and stock pots with me, but I traveled lighter this year and I didn't do as much cooking as I have in the past.
The kids enjoyed the outdoor pool and we spent a lot of time doing activities outside of the neighborhood, such as horseback riding in Mansfield and tubing the Mohican River. We also fished Apple Valley Lake by the boat dock and the kids caught several bluegills. One of the kids caught a decent small mouth bass. We didn't visit the indoor pool or the beaches. Maybe next time. My husband is already talking about going back and we just got home a few hours ago.
We will definitely be back. We truly enjoyed our stay.
Stayed here this weekend for a family wedding. Plenty of sleeping and living room space, wonderful condo. Guys were able to easily get in a round of golf Saturday morning .
We enjoyed the area and the property, but our unit was a bit lacking. I was told they're getting around to remodeling all units and ours definitely showed it's age. Kitchen could have been better stocked as far as pots and pans and it would have been nice to have screen doors so we could have fresh air. We expected a washer and dryer as in pictures shown online, but discovered after arrival that our unit had none.
We would go back, maybe in a few years after improvements are made.
My son boyfriend and myself spent the weekend there. The place was exceptional. Great little outdoor games and a playground. The check in and out process was super easy and really had great communication and will be back hopefully regularly :)

We decided on this location because it was a quick jaunt away from Cincinnati, and we were able to bring our dog! We stayed over Thanksgiving and it was the perfect way to spend time and relax. The kids enjoyed the play area and went to the indoor pool and I was even able to get a run in around the neighborhood. We enjoyed the fireplace. The beds were super comfy, much better than at a hotel. The kitchen was stocked with almost everything we needed to make our Thanksgiving meal, minus the roasting pan which we had brought on our own anyway. I am sure in the summer, there is more to do and see with the lake and beach areas, we just wanted to relax. We enjoyed the games at the cabin, etc.
Loved the place. We loved taking our dogs and kids. Beautiful this time of year!

Great Location but Cleanliness Not Up to Par
We loved the Apple Valley location. It was very quiet. There was plenty of room. The kitchen and dishes were not clean. Neither was the stove or refrigerator. I expected better during the pandemic. We opened one of the casement windows and it almost fell out. We had to go outside to close it. Much updating and maintenance needs to be done.

Hi Linda,
My apologies for any issues you experienced during your visit!
We take great pride in the cleanliness of our units. We ask our guests to let us know if anything isn't right upon check in so we can make it right.
I left you a message to hear more about these issues!
Best regards,
Matt
This was exactly what we were looking for when we scheduled a long weekend get together- clean, well maintained, great location, plenty of options to explore in the area. The property owners are WONDERFUL!

Hi Tammy, We love it when our guests have a great stay!!!
We look forward to your return!
We very much enjoyed our stay - it was a quiet location with a short drive to the closest beach area. The unit was spacious and clean. The only suggestion is to remove the carpet (especially in the largest bedroom) and put in flooring - there was a strong mildew smell that is especially an issue with people who have allergies. There also needs to be a mat in the showers as it's very slippery.
Went as a family during the height of the pandemic enjoyed a nice lazy trip down the Kokosing river Athens is just a few minutes away if you need supplies. The property was clean a spacious and Matt was super helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

Hi William,
We are excited that people are discovering or place! We feel we are a hidden gem!!
Thanks for staying with us. Please spread the word!
(Note: Mount Vernon is the close City to us, not Athens...OU-OH Yeah!! 😃)
This was a fun and relaxing trip due to the pool, beaches, parks, and golf course near by. There was something for the whole family! The condo was super spacious, too. We wish we would have stayed longer :-)

We stayed during the week and it was quiet and very relaxing. There were more people in the area over the weekend but it was still pleasant. The condo was clean and had been renovated as the listing states. Everything was as promised. These condos are right beside the golf course so if you are a golfer it is perfect. We aren't golfers so we enjoyed the beach and pool. It took a little exploring to find these since we weren't familiar with the area. A map at the condo would have been helpful. Matt did give directions when we contacted him.
Thanks for a good stay.
