Our host was wonderful, checking in to be sure we arrived safely (late check-in). The check-in and check out process was super easy and smooth. All in all, this was a terrific experience!

It was great being right on the lake. We were able to fish and kayak from the back yard. It felt safe and secluded.The property manager was great. We had a bad storm come through overnight and lost power. He arranged for someone to come over and clean up the debris without us even asking.And if you are into wildlife, this is a great spot. We saw a bald eagle, hawks, cranes, otters and blue jays...All from the back patio.The location is only a couple minutes away from a grocery store, which was very convenient. ##### Brad W.

The house fit our needs perfectly.Read the reviews to get a little more insight into the place beyond the description (other than the one where someone drunkenly walked into a neighbors house). The description is accurate, the reviews, for the most part, are accurate, and when we're back in the area we will absolutely look at staying here again.The host is responsive, the neighborhood is quiet, the lake is great, and the place was exceptionally clean.Thank you for having us Steve! ##### Michael G.

The cottage was nicely decorated and very clean. We had what we needed to cook and be comfortable there. The back yard was so beautiful and we enjoyed relaxing on the deck. There was lots of wild life surrounding the lake - we even observed a Bald Eagle - the provided binoculars helped too. We were close to the Ohio to Erie bike path and enjoyed riding bikes into Akron. The host communicated well and we had a very relaxing time. ##### Lori p. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Carol R.

This house was within easy driving distance of the Towpath trail. We also toured Stan Hywet. The outdoor setting is beautiful. The drawback was that the only toilet is upstairs in a half bath. One of the bedrooms is downstairs. And there is a narrow metal winding staircase to go up and down ##### Carol R.

Mar 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Lakefront Paradise This peaceful slice of heaven we found from out of town due to a doctor's appointment we scheduled early in the area. Turned out to be an amazing day. It was 70 degrees in March, went kayaking and cooked out on the provided gas grill. Between the wildlife and the stunning view, The place was spotless and we couldn't have asked for more. Come to find out the nice older couple we met next door was in from out of town as both neighbors live out of the area. So what a gem we found. Ended up calling our host Steve who was great about this shower head they had attached to the shower that had this 15 stage filter on it that made your hair and skin feel amazing. Who knew but told my husband we have to get one of those. Wow, we didn't want to leave and will definitely visit again. Highly recommend ##### Gina N.

Location is very good and close to things. Host was very attentive and communication was great! Just note the downstairs has a spiral staircase that could be a problem if you have mobility issues....The shower is downstairs, the toilet is upstairs. This was not a problem for us but just keep that in mind. The place is very quiet and it was a perfect getaway for us to sit by the water and enjoy the tranquility. Access to the Towpath trail is very close which we enjoyed! Downtown Akron is less than 30 minutes and we enjoyed some very nice downtown restaurants as well. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Christina S. Aug 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Nice retreat on the lake The property location is strange, but the location on the lake is amazing. We had a great sunrise every morning. The top floor of the property is great. The layout is strange. There is only a toilet and sink up top, the shower is on the lower floor which is difficult to get to using the spiral staircase. The neighborhood was difficult to maneuver through, and a bit run down. The lake house is one of the nicest properties we saw. Our biggest drawback was the smell of the water in the house. I am assuming it was a well water. It was undrinkable and after showering we still felt unclean. ##### Christina S.
