The house is filled with sunlight during the day, and the original hardwood floors, painted woodwork, exposed brick and lighting create a warm and cozy retreat at night. The large kitchen and the dining room provide great spaces for cooking & dining, playing board games or simply spending quality time together. The living area and front porch overlook the Cuyahoga River and Towpath Trail providing a great place to relax while enjoying a morning cup of coffee or an evening a glass of wine.

Lovely Town and Location
We came to Peninsula to visit with family and to enjoy hiking trails and all this area has to offer. Paul was very accommodating and hospitable. He gave us many recommendations for restaurants in the area and he left some wine and fruit for us in the kitchen. His home is lovely and well equipped with all the essentials. We would love to visit again!

Birthday getaway
We really enjoyed our stay. It was close to the towpath. We could easily walk to the trail. It was in walking distance to bike rentals, shops, and places to eat. It was a short drive to other trailheads, shopping centers, and the interstate. We drove to lake Erie one day. Also a short drive. The house was clean and easy to get to. We had no problems with anything. Would definitely stay there again.
