A nice, comfy old house. It had good water pressure, water heat and excellent AC. The furniture, dishes, lamps, etc appear to have been carefully chosen for the house. Everything was great. Very glad we stayed here and would stay again if in the area.

Close to Cuyahoga Valley NP, Downtown Cleveland & Airport

Brother and I stayed here as part of a roadtrip and place was perfect jumping off point to visit Cuyahoga Valley National Park, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and even the Lake County Captains. Airport was within 30 minutes- couldn't ask for better.

Cozy place close to the National park

Location was perfect for a visit to Cuyahoga National Park, easy access to many sites. House was cozy and had lots of character and cute details. Easy check in. Only issue was that the upstairs hadn’t been cleaned when we arrived (bed not made, trash not removed). There was also no coffee or conditioner - both of which would have been nice to have

This is a charming well kept older house. Antique furniture, wood floors, nice screened in porch. It was clean and had everything we needed. It was just what we wanted. Close to Cleveland and Cuyahoga park. And the bed sheets smelled wonderful! We would stay again.

First Time in Cleveland

Our /was for a great reason -- our son was getting married. We were very pleased with our accommodations. We were able to walk to town to eat and at night it was very quiet. While we didn't spending much time there, it was a pleasant retreat at the end of the day.

A Gem!

We really enjoyed our visit to this charming, cozy and well-equipped property. It is a historic building but has been modernized. We were three adults and two children and would definitely return to spend more time relaxing and exploring the CVNP and Cleveland. Plus, there is a fantastic cafe—the Ocelot—a few minutes away. Finally, our bed was very comfortable.

Great house!

First off, this house had so much character and charm! We absolutely loved it! Was close to everything we needed. The host had popsicles in the freezer, which happen to be my 14 year olds love language. Air conditioning unit in the upper bedroom made it quite comfortable. Definitely a great house for a long weekend trip!

Cuyahoga Hiking Trip

Our primary goal was to hike and the location is unbeatable - within 15 minutes of great hikes and civilization. So, if you are missing something, it is easy to obtain. The kids loved the coziness of the house. We only used the first floor bed and couch and found them comfortable. For a colder weather, as another reviewer mentioned, it may be wise to pack an extra bed cover as the covers provided were light. The only thing that was unusual was the presence of some stink bugs - but they are harmless and they did not bother us and we did not bother them.

Cozy, comfortable, and charming,

My husband and I needed a weekend getaway and this cottage was perfect. We had barely settled in before deciding that next time, we need to stay at least 3 nights. My only gripe, and a very minor one, is that there were no extra blankets. The beds had sheets, bedspread, and a decorative throw. I run cold, so I froze the first night. A trip to Target fixed that for me and in the future, I'll bring a couple of blankets from home. Husband was not cold at all, so it's a personal thing. If you run cold, bring a couple of blankets for the nighttime. The kitchen is well supplied with dishes (including plastic ware for little ones), cooking pots/pans, and even has a few condiments and butter in the fridge. The only item missing would be a big soup pot/dutch oven to make stew or spaghetti water. As we were not planning on cooking those, it was a minor point noted for future reference as we plan return visits. My only request is that someone put together a booklet telling the history of this charming house. If the walls could talk, I expect they'd have stories galore. I can't be the only person who loves history and would love to know more about who built this house, lived there, and how the park service came to own it. We are already looking a the calendar to figure out when we'll be back... there are more trails to hike, popcorn to eat, and evenings to spend chatting in the living room.

The charm of this property can’t be beat! When we first walked in, I was captivated. We spent time on the screened in porch and used our bird app to identify the many birds in the neighborhood. As we settled in for the evening, certain things became noticeable. Something in the house triggered my asthma/allergies. I’m not sure but I feel like it might have been the couch??? While sitting on the couch, I turned my head to look in the main bedroom and noticed dust bunnies under the bed. While in the bathroom on the main floor, I happened to touch my fingers to the sink top and noticed it had a film that I was able to rub off. Additionally, when I was getting ready for the day, a small spider came down on a web from the ceiling. I wanted to soak in a warm tub after a long day of hiking, but there was no drain stopper. When we were eating breakfast, I happened to notice cobwebs on top of the lampshade on the table. The outdoor area is much better depicted in its pictures than in reality. It’s a bit rundown.There was a thistle close to a foot tall I almost ran into just outside the front screen door. It was these little things that began to chip away at the overall charm of the house. I understand to expect some rough edges since it’s such an old house, but basic cleanliness shouldn’t be one of those things. The mattress and pillows on the queen bed are better than mine at home! I got the best sleep I’ve had in a while! :-) There were also enough dishes and utensils.
