Beautiful place! Modern & cozy, walking distance to town, in the winter you can see the lights of the CVSR ‘North Pole’ from the backyard, and there’s a great spot out back overlooking the Cuyahoga river. Very peaceful spot, would definitely recommend!

Serene & relaxing

Loved the small town of Peninsula and our ability to quickly get on the towpath for multiple days of biking and enjoying the National Park. Overlook pad of the river was a great spot to unwind in the afternoon.

Perfect!

This is by far our favorite short term rental place to stay/vacation. The proximity to the canal trail makes getting anywhere a breeze. The park all around and the quaintness of the town is wonderful. Great places to eat, to hike, to take a walk with your dog are all here. We loved it!

Wonderful stay at the Luxury Barn!

Our family had an amazing weekend getaway to Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and the Luxury Barn was a perfect location to relax for the holiday weekend! We visited over Thanksgiving weekend, and the kitchen was full stocked with all the necessary supplies to cook a wonderful meal. We enjoyed lots of quality family time relaxing and playing games and doing puzzles. Beds were super comfortable as well! We would definitely stay here again in the future!

Wish I could have enjoyed more.

This property is just stunning. We were in town for my daughter’s wedding. We did not get to enjoy this property nearly enough. Meticulously clean, well appointed, comfortable. I could have stayed a month. I was sad that I did not get to enjoy the birds. In my limited time bird watching I saw an oriole and trumpeter swans. From North Canton, OH we will be back for a staycation.

Beautiful Barn - Great Trails Nearby

The Bronson Barn is stunning, and the town of Peninsula feels like Stars Hollow from the show “Gilmore Girls” — friendly and beautiful, with local shops and businesses nearby. The barn is very close to hiking trails, including Brandywine Falls and the Ledges trail. Moreover, Rich is a fantastic host. Highly recommend! (First time visiting Ohio/Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and would definitely go again!)

The luxury barn is so well maintained, stocked, cleaned, and decorated. The yard is very private, spacious, and also well groomed. High light: the property overlooks the Cuyahoga River with your own quiet sitting area! The host is quick to respond, a very pleasant communicator. Caution: If climbing stairs is a challenge, then I would not recommend this place. The sleeping accommodations are upstairs, the one restroom is downstairs and there are no handrails to grasp.

Nature’s Beauty in NE Ohio

Spent 4 wonderful nights at The Bronson Barn, set in the heart of Peninsula surrounded by the beauty of Cuyahoga National Forest in fall. The Barn was the absolute best, furnished with all the creature comforts you could want…from a fully stocked kitchen with plenty of appliances,dishes etc to a spectacular shower,extremely comfortable lounging area and spacious bedroom with lovely beds. Waking up with the beauty of nature yet still walking distance to the various shops and restaurants as well as easy access to the hiking trails and Towpath made it a perfect location. Our host, Rich went out of his way to ensure that our stay was first class. Will definitely return !!!

Great place, great lication

The barn is located in an excellent spot within Cuyahoga National Park. The back yard is right along the river and has beautiful views and a peaceful nature feel. The barn itself has been renovated and was very clean. It is a really interesting and peaceful space to relax, unwind, and enjoy. The only drawback was the host’s sensibilities to the guest privacy. On day 1, he asked if we minded having a painter come in and do some “maintenance touch ups”. He agreed not to, but it seemed very strange to paint as maintenance during a guest stay. Then, on the last day, the water was literally shut off 5 minutes before check out time. I was washing the last dish as the water was just shut completely off. I wrote to the owner to apologize for the last dish and inform him about the water, to which he replied, “Thanks, sorry”. If you are going to rent your place, you should plan around the guest stay to handle any property maintenance or management responsibilities. Otherwise, the place was great.
