Christmas magic

We enjoyed our stay in this magical home. Our entire family were able to gather in one home to be together for Christmas. We had enough bedrooms, bathrooms, and eating space to all be together. Both adults and children had space to talk and play. It worked out beautifully for our family!

Family reunion

This home was perfect for our summer family reunion! We loved hearing about the history of the property and Lisa is a wonderful host. The backyard is so relaxing and we really enjoyed our time around the fire pit. The bedrooms are cozy and there was plenty of space for cooking and dining as a big family. We would love to return for another gathering.

Absolutely amazing!

If you're planning a small, intimate wedding in the Cleveland area, definitely book with Candoren. We had our wedding for about 50 people here and it was absolutely beautiful. Lisa is so nice and has amazing ideas. The outside is perfect for a backyard wedding, and the inside is so full of history and charm. The staff on the day of my wedding was on it and rolled with so many punches. They really make your day so special.

Spacious with cozy gathering spaces

Our family of 12 adults, 1 child, and 1 infant had plenty of rooms available for privacy in addition to spaces where we could gather as a group. The house is beautifully welcoming, and we'd all recommend it. We spent time at Headlands Beach, the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and University Circle - all within an hour's drive.

2022 Annual Sibling / Spouses Getaway

On an annual basis my 4 siblings / spouses plan an annual getaway to maintain strong family relationships. In total there were 10 of us who stayed here. Lisa was always very timely with her communication. She and her husband were at the home when we arrived for check in. Both were very congenial and made us feel welcome. They provided a tour of the home and provided some historical facts. Lisa and her husband have done a wonderful job at renovating the home. With plans to do more. This property provided us the space we were looking for. We enjoyed being able to sit together in the large living room and reminisce and have a good time. I can highly recommend this property as a place to stay at. It was central to other places we wanted to take in..

Night before bridal shower

We decided to stay over the night before my bridal shower. It made it so much easier for us the next day. Lisa is absolutely amazing. The house is clean and though it is big, it is homey. The neighborhood is really quiet and my gusts were impressed. I look forward to staying again!

Lisa goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Her home is everything we needed and more. Learning the history of the house was so interesting and makes one appreciate all of the hard work that Lisa and her husband did to bring this fabulous place back to it's original glory. We had so much fun and can't wait to come back!

Perfect family inclusive stay

Lisa and Bill - thank you so much for your hospitality. Your property allowed the family from three states to come together and support each other for the loss of a loved one. This allowed us the opportunity to host our extended family from the Cleveland area for a celebration of life. The accommodations should be noted that one full bathroom is not available for use.
