Stayed to hike various CVNP trails. Very close in proximity. Easy to get to trails and a quiet place to stay. Very clean, comfortable bed, nice space outside to have breakfast. Great air as it was 90s during our stay! We also had some great local food including Thai, pizza and Handles ice cream, which was our very favorite.

Great location close to Cayhuga and only 30 minutes from Cleveland and Canton. This is a lovely home situated next to a lake which was really nice to come back and relax after the days adventures. Evan was responsive and the home is clean and perfect for my family PS The Pac-Man machine was a nice addition too!

Nice location

We stayed two nights here. Very clean, nice quiet location. The welcome booklet was a nice touch! You might consider getting a new couch because it was verrrry creaky (the loveseat was perfect). Also the blinds were great but blackout curtains would be an amazing addition. If we’re ever in the area again, we will definitely be checking this location for availability!

Midway point for traveling

The rental was our halfway point for vacation and it was nice to have a house for our family to stay in instead of a hotel. The place was very clean and had everything we needed. The property manager was on top of everything! He communicated with us throughout the entire process and gave us info on local restaurants and activities!

Cuyahoga National Park visit

Nice clean house in a peaceful neighborhood. Just a few minute drive to Cuyahoga National Park which was the primary purpose of our stay. Steps away from drowning a few worms in the lake after some long hikes was a plus! Also being just a short drive to some great craft breweries (Missing Mountain and HiHO) didn't hurt either!

We choose this rental based on the location and price. We were looking to spend a getaway doing some hiking in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
