Clean home which has plenty of amenities. We didn’t have young children with us, but we were impressed by all the things they had for a young family including toys, games, and a crib. It is clear the owners have prepared the home for any eventuality. I would stay again.

Perfectly located & chic!
From the moment I saw this place on Vrbo, I knew my family was going to love it! And it exceeded my expectations! The hosts were very communicative and the house manual was very detailed. We came into town to see a concert at Blossom Music Center, which is only 12 minutes from this townhouse. It was the perfect location for us to stay! Can’t wait until we are able to come back to this townhouse!

Awesome in Akron!
This property is conveniently located, comfortable, clean, and spacious. We five had a great time cooking together and visiting family in the Akron area. The bedrooms are spacious, the kitchen is well-equipped, and the laundry is very convenient to the bedrooms. There are TVs in every room for those rainy/snowy days and we had garage access! Communication between parties was spot on, and questions were answered immediately. Thanks for a great time!

Clean and comfortable
It was a very nice and clean place with plenty of space. Beds were very comfortable and the unit was stocked fairly well. We rented for three weeks. Was nice to have a washer & dryer in the unit. The only negative was that they did not offer a garage opener remote, even though they allowed use of the garage. That was inconvenient since we came and went a lot throughout the days.

Beautiful new property! Conveniently located. Short drive to Cleveland, Akron and Canton. Close to restaurants and stores. Very close to Sand Run and Tow Path Trails too. Plenty of space to spread out too! The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood is safe and quiet. We were here from the West coast (California and Oregon) for my grandsons first birthday!
