We really enjoyed our stay. The home was spotless, everything felt new and well cared for, and it was very comfortable. Being right on the small lake made it so peaceful, and the neighborhood was quiet and lovely. The location was convenient and getting in and out was very easy. We were visiting our daughter while she works toward her doctorate at Kent State University, and this was the perfect spot for our trip. We would happily stay here again.

The property was just as it appears in pictures. Clean, quiet, safe area, and easy to access. The host communicated well. The beds are very firm. There is a mildew smell that is strong when you arrive. You get used to it, but if you are sensitive to smells, you may want to go with another location.
