Fantastic property!

The house and the area were exactly as described. The owners were well organized and had perhaps the very best property guide book that I have ever seen. We knew exactly what to look for and how to use everything. Really great place and we look forward to staying again in the future

We loved the property and all of it's historical architecture and antiques. It was such a peaceful home and our kids never touched an electronic device! The pond at night with the bull frogs and fish jumping was so peaceful and relaxing and was a great place to wind down each night and chat before heading to bed. We generally struggle to sleep when away from home, but this house was homey and comfortable we couldn't even make it through the first page of a book or a start of a movie before we were sound asleep! Our host was amazing and stayed in contact through emails leading up to and throughout our stay to ensure we had everything we needed. Such an amazing place to create some family memories!

Reminded me of Grandma's house

This was a cozy, clean, lovely home. I absolutely loved the radiator heat. The kitchen was nicely stocked for cooking and the hot chocolate provided was a really nice touch. The next time I'm in Cleveland I will try to stay here again and hopefully, it will be in the summer so I can enjoy the outdoors too! There is a wonderful little pond in the back behind the fire pit which was nice to look at. I also took advantage of the jet tub in the upstairs bathroom. Overall, a really great experience!

Could not get in

We were sent incorrect codes for the door numerous times. After about two hours, and four codes, our patience was out. Took multiple calls to get a supervisor. We asked for, and received, a refund.

Fun farmhouse in Kirtland

Overall we loved the property, and location. The property around the farmhouse is full of natural beauty. We loved the antiques inside the home. The home suited our needs, and was well supplied for our family of 9. This is an older home with character which we found to be fun, and charming.

Mixed Feelings

The home is a lovely old historic home and really had everything we needed! Loved the upstairs Master and bath, very spacious! Beautiful grounds and very clean! Drawbacks… Good location in town but it’s on the main road and you WILL hear traffic all day and into the night). Old home with OLD washer/dryer. The dryer didn’t work and the washer was missing the water temp knob, or it was removed so only cold water was available. Kind of concerning as guest linens should ALWAYS be washed in hot for sanitary purposes. For the nightly rate we paid, seems to me it should have a more modern and working washer/dryer.The mgmt company offered to send our laundry out with 24 hour turnaround but who has time for that?!? We ended up having to go to a laundromat while on vacation… no fun. The mgmt company gave me a 10% refund but for the 100, it was a lot of inconvenience for our group.Our last night, (thankfully only one night) we were awakened at 3am by a loud alarm of some kind, coming from the basement. Needless to say, it was most annoying and difficult to go back to sleep.

Perfect for the Holidays

House was cute and cozy with enough room for lots of family to spread out. Very close to Chapin Forest. Kitchen had most utensils needed for a big family dinner. (Needs a can opener) Stove and oven worked fine. A bit of traffic noise as it’s on a pretty busy road but nothing like city traffic. We had a great time with no issues.

Beautiful house

The house and the furnishings were beautiful, as was the historic area. There was a dead duck out by the pond and when the hosts were alerted, they apologized, but it wasn’t taken care of. We were bummed there was a three-day minimum stay, because we could only be there two nights, but we were aware of that at time of booking.

Peace & quiet

Had a peaceful & relaxing time. This is a cute home. Reminded me of being a little girl in my grandmothers home. We loved the kitchen space & spent most of our time there or outside. Only issue was the stove doesn’t work properly. The pilots run low. Other thing. Not enough towels. Other than that I will book again.

Quiet property

This was a quiet place. Lots of road traffic but overall very quiet. Everything was clean, which was what we were most interested in. Other than not being able to find the remote for the DVD player in the living room area, everything was wonderful! And that was just a small, minor detail!

Beautiful Farm House

We loved this beautiful home. It was just minutes away from Historic Kirtland so it made it easy to come back and forth. We also enjoyed Squire Castle. The house was charming and bigger than we expected. Everything was clean and organized. We picked this home because of the year it was built, as we wanted to help them get a feel for the history of Historic Kirtland, it was perfect for that.
