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.

This cottage was a wonderful place to stay. The little lake makes it even more charming. The host was responsive to all communication. The house was comfortable and clean. The neighborhood was an older, established neighborhood and we felt very safe there. It was close to Hudson, Ohio which is a lovely place to shop or go out to eat. We would definitely chose this house again.

Nice quiet neighborhood to rest up after our hiking in the park. Easy access to all Cuyahoga Valley NP has to offer, and close enough for a little side trip into Cleveland. No guest book? It’s always fun to see activities and restaurants that others enjoyed.

About the host

Hosted by Evan Giffels

Host profile image
I am from northeast Ohio. I absolutely love the Stow community and everything it has to offer! I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, hiking, biking, and real estate.

Why they chose this property

There are beautiful views of the Lake, and it is in a quiet neighborhood. Great location near the Metro Parks, Blossom Music Center, Sarah's Vineyard, Boston Mills and Brandywine Ski Resorts, shopping, and much more. Very suitable for a vacation/getaway spot, business trip, traveling healthcare workers, and anything in between!

What makes this property unique

One of the many things I love about this cottage is the many windows to enhance the views. Whether you are in the kitchen cooking, watching TV in the living room, eating dinner with the family in the dining area, or walking out of your room in the morning, you have great views of the lake!
