On our stay

Parking was somewhat limited. There was a random truck parked in front of the house the whole time we were there and we had to park down the street.

Although it is a little out of the way to Akron and Cleveland, if you need a clean property with private rooms and space for a large group, this is the place to be!

Base camp for the eclipse!

This is a great location for exploring Cleveland and the surrounding areas. Quiet neighborhood. The host was communicative and provided great recommendations on food and shopping. We had 9 people - 3 adults and six kids. This is a small bungalow, one shower, but it worked just fine for what we needed.

Great house near Akron Ohio

My family stayed in this for for the weekend. There were 5 adults, 4 boys under 10 and a 6 month old. It was plenty of room for all of us. The house was very clean and the owner communicated fast and affectively. I would definitely recommend this house.

So comfortable with a ton of space!

I came with my daughter and some teammates for a weekend of roller derby and we had a great time. Property owner was so easy to deal with and we had no issues! It was convenient to grocery stores and a group walked to the rail trail to stretch their legs before the games! We all rested well and there were many compliments on the beds!! If we’re ever in Akron again I will definitely stay here again!!

So clean!

This is an older house, but you can tell the owner did a lot to make sure things are cozy. This house was very clean! The bedding and beds were really comfortable. There were 8 of us in town for a sports tournament so we were really just there in the evenings, but it was a good stay. The owner was very quick with questions and communication was great.

Vacay to NFL Hall of Fame

Outside of being a little too hot in upstairs of place, everything was nice. After smoke alarm battery was dying and in turn beeping, owner immediately had batteries sent in mail. Pretty close to airport and just over 30 minutes to Hall of Fame. The area itself isn’t ideal for activities and restaurants beyond a decent ice cream place. That said about 20 minutes away are plenty of options and not too far away is Brandywine Falls.

Bedding and linens were great. Closet in the bedroom is really big which is very helpful, but needs a light. The two bedrooms on the first floor, and the three bedrooms on the second floor were great for our sleeping. The parking was not ideal, no driveway, and the overall kitchen could've been better. The dining table only seats 4 comfortably. Initially there were not enough cups and coffee mugs and once we notified the host, which he told us he's not sure what happened to them, he came two days later and brought new ones. There also were no paper plates, paper towels, and napkins. The host informed us they do not supply those too prevent waste in the landfill, so we bought them ourself. They did bring some napkins when they brought them cups.
