    5/5

    This quaint, charming home has been decorated nicely and is very comfortable. It was very clean and well appointed. The neighborhood is quiet and is a short drive from shops and restaurants. We had a very enjoyable stay. Great communication from the owner who even phoned me to check on us due to tornado warnings. Very caring!!

    5/5

    My family and i stayed here for 2 nights on the way to a family funeral. Resterants are fairly close. Small town but close to Akron. Lakes are vety close. We fond a good fishing spot less than 5 minutes away. Host was eager to help anyway she could. Russ

  • Great cottage

    5/5

    This cottage is conveniently located for visiting Akron, Cuyahoga Valley, and even Canton. We like birding and hiking, and there are many beautiful parks in this area. The cottage is comfortable and lovingly decorated. Great communication with the property manager and owner! My only complaint is not with the cottage itself, but with its description of being “steps from the lake.” While this is technically true, the steps take you to a guardrail behind which are private properties going down to the lake.
