Location was convenient to restaurants/brewery, but just something to be conscience about is the traffic noise; house is right on state route. Very cute place though and served its purpose.
I was using this house to accommodate family visiting in from out of state. We spent a weekend exploring central Ohio. This house is a fun mix of modern and vintage decor in a convenient location. With easy access to I-70 you can use this place as a basecamp for doing all kinds of fun stuff without having to deal with the traffic and hassles of Columbus. I would definitely stay here again.
Love the house. Clean, and just like the pictures showed. Love the Boat Yard, and walk-in the bike path. Also they allowed our well trained dog 🐶 more places needs to be like these great owners. They was nice also. We will return!
The property with sparkling clean and perfectly adorable. My family of 6 spent the weekend at the Lake House and it was a perfect choice. My son locked us out of the house one night and Barb was quick to help. We definitely would recommend this property.
We had a wonderful visit with our son for Thanksgiving. The home was well maintained and just the perfect size for our stay. We will definitely stay again if we are in the area.
Stayed at this property just across the road from Buckeye Lake. It was clean, convenient with fun lake vibes. Barb was easy to work with and gave some good tips for the area. Would definitely stay again.
We had a great time here, and loved walking to the Boatyard for music and drinks, the path for great views of the lake & houses, and Our Diner for breakfast. Thank you so much for a great place to stay!
Unfortunately, I could only stay one night due to not feeling well! Wonderful property! Beautifully renovated inside! Barb was wonderful! I’m a light sleeper so being close to the road kept me up a little at night. I liked having a fenced front yard for my small havanese! I would definitely stay again!

What makes this property unique
Small fenced yard for a pet Five minute drive to National Trails Raceway. Small village feel. A private boat dock may be available for guests. Message to check on availability. Public boat ramp is less than 1/2 mile at North Shore State Park. Plz only access the yard from inside the house using the front door; keeping gates closed always. When booking, tell us how many guests will be here & if a pet will be here.
