Great place to stay and would not hesitate to stay there again!! We were in the area for a wedding, so didn’t spend a ton of our time there but actually would’ve liked to have had one more day just to chill at the house and around the fire pit. We enjoyed just sitting on the deck in the provided Adirondack chairs. The beds were comfy and we had all the supplies we needed! One of us even forgot a shirt that got accidentally mixed up in the bed linens, and the owner was happy to help get it back to us👍 ##### Alysia R.

The upstairs bathroom shower curtain could’ve been changed it was dirty and the towels were dingy, a corner in the bathroom it looks like there is water damage and looks disgusting. There were also ants on the counter. I was afraid to put anything on it. I’m not use to staying somewhere that looks worst than where I live. I expected better for the price. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/17f6e50c-83d4-4399-a8fc-1081acf6bfea-1753797158463.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/986507e2-0a9f-4405-8f82-f720f334d955-1753797158753.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/036ef3a9-f96d-4ff8-9846-d5317a70daff-1753797158078.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/286bc238-72c4-4fde-93ee-c2bb8cae74cd-1753797511051.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ana J.

The property lot was large and had plenty of space for dogs. The beds were very comfortable, and the room sizes were great. The open floor plan was great as well. There were some things that needed to be maintained a little better such as some uneven flooring between rooms without transitions, and we found an outlet without a cover on it next to a bed. Which the floor was sharp in certain parts of the cracked tiles, which made it a little dangerous. However, overall, it was a great stay, and we enjoyed the location. ##### Susan G.

The house is an older cute home that has been remodeled. I was a little nervous at first not knowing the area but everything was great with an Acme right down the road and places to eat nearby. The Portage Lakes State Park is close and a wonderful place to walk and has great disc golf course. The only thing we questioned was the security camera. We just would have appreciated a heads up on the camera, when we first saw the camera it made us a little nervous, but I also understand monitoring the outside area. Overall, the house was nice and worked for our visit to see family. I would rent here again in the future for additional family trips to ohio. ##### Alexis P.
