A lot left to be desired!
It wasn't terrible but I wanted to offer feedback to the property owner and potential guests since my experience was a bit of a let down.The home is in such a peaceful and tranquil location, but the cleanliness and amenities leave a lot left to be desired at this price point.Positives:QuietPeacefulComfortableHot tubKayaksViewNegatives:Dirty - Obviously had not been professionally cleaned. Dishes, silverware and glassware were dirty. The main window (view of the lake) was grimy, full of cobwebs and obviously hadn't been cleaned in months. Supplies - We brought a bunch of food for a cookout and ended up having to doordash because the propane tanks for the gas grill were empty. The mosquito's, cobwebs and bugs were super heavy too so it was obvious the property is not maintained with regular pest control.Cheap - Everything from the folgers coffee in the cabinet to the, dishes, cookware, towels and linens were just cheap.Overall, it's a beautiful location and our dog and family made the best of it but its essentially a party pad on the lake, which is ironic considering how the owners claim to have decibel readers--LOL.With some attention to detail, it could easily be a 4-star property, but probably best suited for visitors who need a lot of beds and bring their own supplies (including a propane tank for the grill).

We had a wonderful time at this property! Such a wonderful view of the lake with lots of activities. The hot tub looked brand new! We had a great time using the kayaks. They also had a pack n play, high chair, and baby gate. Dan was extremely responsive and we did not have any issues! The driveway is steep, however we did not have any issues getting up and down.

Nice Location
This is a cute house and redone very well. Kitchen had what we needed to make meals, and everything was well stocked. It was nice to have the deck off the one bedroom, and beds were comfy. We really liked the open concept of the first floor so we could all hang out. And the kayaking was fun! The yard is not fully fenced for pets as I thought but that was ok we just leashed em. We all loved being so close to lake had a nice fire. Enjoyed the pretty views!

A great place to stay on the lake!
We had a great time staying here and will most likely try to book again next time we come to the area for concerts! The house had everything needed for a relaxing stay. Its pretty close to Blossom Music Center and Cleveland so it was the perfect home base for a weekend of concerts and the rock n roll hall of fame. My boyfriend enjoyed the nba jam arcade game and it was really nice to have dinners and breakfast out on the patio by the lake. Driveway is steep but we had no problem getting our subcompact car up and down the driveway and we left the suv at the summit parking with no issue. They had treats there for the pup too which she immediately found and enjoyed. Really great place to stay!
