My wife and I enjoyed a two night stay here and found the home to be very clean and just as described. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked with all the basic provisions you'd need to kickstart your stay. Location is within short walking distance to Downtown. Definitely recommend staying at Craig’s quaint property!

Perfect stay

We stayed in town for our first Maple Festival and this house was perfect all around. Just a five minute walk to the square so we didnt have to find parking for the event. The accommodations were excellent, very taken care of home and very clean. Thank you for a great weekend getaway.

My family and I had a wonderful time at the Maple Cottage in Chardon. What a quaint property. A perfect place to visit Sharon in the surrounding area. Last year we went to the Maple festival and this year we went to the great jug of county fair. This was a perfect homebase for us. The cottage was immaculate. With plenty of room for all of us to sleep. The weather was perfect. We really enjoyed ourselves. And the owners went above and beyond. We loved our stay and will be back as often as they’ll have us.

Had a great stay!

This was our 2nd stay at the Geauga Maple Cottage. We're originally from Chardon and return occasionally to visit family and friends. The location of the house works out great and is a walkable distance to a few restaurants, bars, stores, the walking trail, and the town square. The house was clean and stocked with everything we needed. Both the house and yard are well maintained and we enjoyed having a few guests over and sitting around the firepit in the backyard. The owners are helpful and available for anything you may need. Looking forward to another stay next year.

We came from Georgia for a Family Reunion and were so pleased with our stay in this home! Our little kids loved spending time with Jasper the owners dog who lived next door!

Relaxing Memorial Day Retreat

Our family of five greatly enjoyed our stay in Chardon especially as this house is within walking distance to a number of nice restaurants. The front porch with rocking chairs, the children’s games, and the cozy reclining chairs were highlights for our children. The laundry room, nicely equipped kitchen, and cozy bedrooms were just right. Definitely recommend!

Nice house / safe / quiet

A friend got married in Novelty and my choice of close places to stay were hotels East or Chagrin - I made the right choice. House is on a Main Street, but it is quiet, I didn’t hear a thing either night of our stay. Owners next door and friendly. There is a bar 100 yards away which I didn’t hear a peep from. I would stay again. If you want to have cable you need to bring a fire stick or other plug in device for the tv.

Wonderful property, Amazing hosts!

This was a wonderful place to stay. Clean, spacious, and comfortable. Beds, Couches, etc were in great shape and comfortable, and the kitchen had all the utinsils and cooking equipment we needed. On top of that, Craig and Marla are great people. We had a special circumstance and they bent over backward to be accommodating. I cannot thank them enough for their warm welcome and their concern for our comfort. Thank you SO much for everything you did for us and for sharing this wonderful home with us.

Perfect!

We stayed here for the Maple Festival! This was the perfect choice. We were within walking distance of the square, which was perfect as we decided to come back to the house for a bit to hang out and then went back to the festival. The house was well stocked with items like toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, linens, towels, etc, which was nice as I've stayed other places and had to go purchase some of these things. The check in and check out process was extremely easy. We definitely plan on staying here again in the future!

Alumni vacation

i was in town for the annual all-class reunion of chardon high school and for activities related to my class's 60th anniversary reunion. my son and his wife and teenage daughter came with me. we did a little touring of the area while we were there to see old stomping grounds and sample the sights in chardon and nearby towns. your house was an excellent venue for all our activities. my only concern was my need for an upstairs bathroom and the steps would have been a little steep for my wife to manage if she had been able to come. i would be happy to stay there again in the future.
