The kitchen could've been much cleaner. Many of the dishes were dirty and coffee grounds were left in the coffee maker. Pictures make the space look bigger than it is. Poor construction

What a great place! Thanks for all the care and attention to detail. We visited after a snowfall and the yard was perfect for building snowmen and having snowball battles - SO FUN! Location was also perfect. We may be in the Dayton area again soon and if so, this would be a wonderful place to stay.

Nice quite quaint place!The game room in the garage, the bicycles (since it was descent enough to ride) The kitchen was large, well stocked and a super big refrigerator. Loved the adjustable bed in master bedroom. We even had a fire going outside in the fire pit. We also loved that you could walk downtown, it was decorated nicely! Nice hot water too. Over all great place to stay kids kept busy which was a plus for us adults!

Good space for family and friends to gather for our daughters wedding weekend. Convenient to stores and food. Enjoyed the fire pit in the backyard to relax after all the festivities. Did have to purchase some extra toilet tissue and firewood due to low supply at the house. Overall it worked for our needs.

The home was creatively designed with a very large and family friendly kitchen with a huge island and a very spacious refrigerator. There was a Game Room that the kids (and kids at heart) enjoyed. The Bee theme was very clever and carried throughout the home. It was as nice as the photos depicted and was a great place to spend time as a family. The instructions were clear and easy to follow and the host, Lynn, was easy to contact and very pleasant to communicate with. We had a Bee-eutiful time and recommend this location highly as a pñace to stay...so much more enjoyable than a hotel!!
