This property was lovely and suited our needs perfectly. We were ten siblings with some of the spouses - several were local and did not stay overnight. It was like a step back in time but with all the modern amenities. The owner was gracious and welcoming and we hope to be back next year!

The 8 of us gals had a wonderful stay here. Lisa has a very well stocked kitchen and plenty of towels etc. There was wood available for the fire pit and fire starters. While it was on a main road it was far enough away to be very quiet. Plenty of comfortable beds.

Absolutely amazing - again!!

We 100% recommend this rental!! We are now repeat visitors of this beautiful home and hope we’ll be back again. Staying here is really staying in a HOME. A warm, loving environment with arms wide open ready to host you to sleep and your friends or family to gather to celebrate. Our hosts, Lisa and Bill, were once again incredible communicators and made sure we had everything we needed to host family from near and far away for a family reunion over Memorial Day. This gives us a chance to gather and take a moment to be grateful for the family we were given. What a blessing! We had so much room to spread out to relax including a first floor bedroom that was ADA compliant for grandma who has some mobility issues. Upstairs the bedrooms were plentiful and we slept very comfortably. We loved the addition of the back deck since we last stayed. This added yet another gathering place. Can’t wait to see what comes next before we visit next time!!

Christmas magic

We enjoyed our stay in this magical home. Our entire family were able to gather in one home to be together for Christmas. We had enough bedrooms, bathrooms, and eating space to all be together. Both adults and children had space to talk and play. It worked out beautifully for our family!

Family reunion

This home was perfect for our summer family reunion! We loved hearing about the history of the property and Lisa is a wonderful host. The backyard is so relaxing and we really enjoyed our time around the fire pit. The bedrooms are cozy and there was plenty of space for cooking and dining as a big family. We would love to return for another gathering.

Absolutely amazing!

If you're planning a small, intimate wedding in the Cleveland area, definitely book with Candoren. We had our wedding for about 50 people here and it was absolutely beautiful. Lisa is so nice and has amazing ideas. The outside is perfect for a backyard wedding, and the inside is so full of history and charm. The staff on the day of my wedding was on it and rolled with so many punches. They really make your day so special.

Spacious with cozy gathering spaces

Our family of 12 adults, 1 child, and 1 infant had plenty of rooms available for privacy in addition to spaces where we could gather as a group. The house is beautifully welcoming, and we'd all recommend it. We spent time at Headlands Beach, the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and University Circle - all within an hour's drive.

2022 Annual Sibling / Spouses Getaway

On an annual basis my 4 siblings / spouses plan an annual getaway to maintain strong family relationships. In total there were 10 of us who stayed here. Lisa was always very timely with her communication. She and her husband were at the home when we arrived for check in. Both were very congenial and made us feel welcome. They provided a tour of the home and provided some historical facts. Lisa and her husband have done a wonderful job at renovating the home. With plans to do more. This property provided us the space we were looking for. We enjoyed being able to sit together in the large living room and reminisce and have a good time. I can highly recommend this property as a place to stay at. It was central to other places we wanted to take in..

Perfect family inclusive stay

Lisa and Bill - thank you so much for your hospitality. Your property allowed the family from three states to come together and support each other for the loss of a loved one. This allowed us the opportunity to host our extended family from the Cleveland area for a celebration of life. The accommodations should be noted that one full bathroom is not available for use.
