10/10

This property is in a super convenient location just a few steps from the lake. The cute and cozy home is so comfortable and the furnishings were lovely to enjoy some down time. The owner was incredibly responsive, checking in a couple times via text to ensure all was going well. The home is very well stocked! We had everything we needed for a few days’ visit - we were there during a very hot and humid weekend and the two a/c units worked beautifully to keep the place cool. Quiet area, close to lakes, Akron and Cleveland.

10/10

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.
