Wedding

We stayed for a wedding at Stone Ridge Golf Club. Michelle met us when we got there and walked us through where everything was at in the house. The house was spotless and stocked with everything we needed including cinnamon rolls! Was the perfect location to get to downtown Bowling Green and to the golf club. Would highly recommend this spot for your next trip to Bowling Green

Perfect home in BG

We rented this home for my daughter’s graduation weekend. The home was perfect. We had everything we needed. The basement “playroom” was used by our 1 year old granddaughter and our 20 year old kids. They loved the toys, games, WII, record player! So much fun! Everyone enjoyed the hot tub. The home was very clean and nicely decorated for Christmas. Perfect place for our weekend stay.

A true oasis!

I have stayed in rental homes across the world and this one stands above the rest! There is truly nothing that they haven't thought of to make your stay more comfortable and relaxing. Everything you could need in the kitchen to make any meal you can think of, endless things to entertain kids and adults, comfy beds, amazing backyard and perfect decor! We briughts our bikes and enjoyed riding around town- everything is very accessible! Highly recommend staying here whether it's for a weekend getaway (as it was for us), or visiting someone on campus. You won't regret it!! :)

We have stayed in VRBOs all over and this is by far the coolest and cleanest house we have ever stayed in! The owners thought of everything! We even arrived to a fresh baked apple pie and ice cream! Perfect location for any BGSU activity. Plenty of space. The backyard and hot tub are a little piece of paradise. The decor throughout the home is perfect! Beds are comfortable. Plenty of sheets and towels. Tons of games in the basement for kiddos. We will 100 percent rent this home again! Owners are also so kind and helpful!

Nice time!

We had a great time!! The home was beautiful and the games and hot tub where awesome. If I could say one thing is the check in process was long you meet the owners at the property ( they live next door) and they do a whole house walk through and give you your keys. I much prefer a lock box or some other access we where already in pretty late. But, it was amazing and the owners are wonderful.
