Tgiving in Stow
The house was everything we needed to visit our son (a student at Kent) and celebrate Thanksgiving together. Toasty cottage with great wildlife watching - ducks, geese and groundhogs close to everything, including great hiking at The Ledges.

Perfect location for Cuyahoga Valley
We were in Stow for a visit to Cuyahoga Valley National Park and were happy to find this cute cottage just 15 minutes from the Visitor Center at the park. The bed was comfortable and the appliances were nice. The new patio and lake views were a highlight and we appreciated the proximity to grocery stores and coffee shops. We needed to buy k cups after finding only 3 caffeinated cups for 2 of us for 2 nights and we laughed to find someone else’s chocolate chip cookie on the floor of the bedroom. We also definitely needed to wash dishes before using them but none of that was a big deal. We’d stay here again.

Safe, clean and convenient
Cute, clean updated house located in a safe neighborhood. We liked the fact that it is very child proof. Our one year old was able to explore safely. We prepared some meals in the house. It is located near Cuyahoga Falls National Forest where were able to hike and kayak. We also drove to Lake Eerie.

Cuyahoga National Park Visit
This location was perfect for our long weekend stay to visit Cuyahoga National Park. The location is in a peaceful lovely neighborhood with a beautiful view out onto the lake cove from the house. It worked great for myself and my friend as there are two private bedrooms with either full or queen size beds. We didn't use the room in the rear of the house with the table for eating. We actually thought it would be better served as an additional bedroom to fit more people in the house. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable with great hot water in the shower. The host was wonderful responding to me immediately with questions. It would be a great place to stay with kids as the park and playground are in walking distance. There are several great restaurants in the area, we went to Burntwood Tavern and sat on the deck overlooking the river, it was wonderful. It's the perfect location if you are visiting the National Park, it's so close to all of it.

Can't really see the lake.
Cottage is very clean with one exception, the exhaust fan in the bathroom could use a little attention. I was excited because it was described as a "Lakeside cottage", but the outside really needs some TLC. Nice if you are the indoor type, but not much outside appeal.

We enjoyed our stay at this clean, cute cabin that is updated and just as pictured. We found it very comfortable and convenient for our weekend there to celebrate our daughter's graduation from Kent State; I would highly recommend it as a great alternative to hotels in Kent for future graduations.

Home base for the National park
We overall enjoyed our 4 night stay. We biked and hiked in Cuyahoga Valley National Park and succeeded in the main goal of the trip, seeing the total eclipse! The little house on the lake was a good location to get to the park within a few minutes and go to Hudson, Cuyahoga Falls, and Kent to check out different restaurants in the evenings. The neighborhood is fine but not the most picturesque. I gave the listing accuracy a 4 because I'm pretty sure that the 2 beds were full size rather than queen size. Otherwise it was clean, comfortable, and very pleasant! Thank you!

Check in/out was easy. House was clean, organized and had everything we needed for our stay. Evan, is a great host and was very responsive to all messages. It is in a great location for easy, short drives into CVNP for day trips. Also, close enough to Akron, Cuyahoga falls and Cleveland for restaurants, breweries, etc.
