We were looking for a property close to Kent State University to have a long week and visit with our son. Great house! Wonderful little downtown and the hosts were fantastic! We will definitely stay here again when we’re visiting up north.

Family gathering in Cuyahoga Valley

This was our first stay at a Vrbo, and we were very impressed by the property, the location, and the ease of the process. This was a lovely home with everything you could possibly need. I wish we could have stayed longer.
