Kristen's carriage house was perfect for us as we were in town for the Clinic. It is so close that we took a Lyft car anywhere we went, including downtown. The carriage house was quiet and in a nice area to walk. We discovered the Lakeview Cemetery and the Garfield Monument for an excellent hike. Kristen has furnished the carriage house with comfy furniture and beds, along with high end appliances and electronics. Highly recommend!

Very private stay!

We had a great time staying, it was very convenient to everywhere we wanted to visit while in Cleveland. Super private with the Carriage House being at the back of the property. I was able to take my older Shih-tzu out for walks in the garden area and on the sidewalk without much traffic. Very clean, bigger bathrooms and overall a great historic place to stay.

Fabulous !!

This is a small, meticulously cared-for carriage house behind a very large home, built in 1917, that is in the process of being brought back to its original splendor. The neighborhood is quiet, super-safe (I should know because I actually live just a mile away) and within a five-minute walk of a small, quaint shopping district. My son got married, so I rented this carriage house for my two brothers and a sister. They raved about how nice it was. If you want to be in the heart of Cleveland Heights or near University Circle, you couldn't do better than to stay at this carriage house.

Everything we needed

CWRU parents here for a visit. Finally a Cleveland vrbo i will absolutely return to! The host was so wonderful. The little house is a perfect layout. Our daughter ended up sleeping over to get a break from the dorms and for some homemade food. Great walking neighborhood and close enough to walk to the university. Very quiet and comfortable.

Wonderful experience

We loved staying at Kristen’s Carriage House. Everything you could want was available. Furniture and beds were comfortable. Top of the line appliances. And to top it off our first night we were visited by a gorgeous buck lounging in the back yard. We also had a tour of the mansion that Kristen and her mom,Margo, are renovating. (The Carriage House is located behind the mansion- the Harry Payer Mansion). The proximity is perfect for going to Severance Hall, Playhouse Square, Cleveland Clinic and the Coventry section. Parking is off street and safe in a well lit driveway. Wonderful experience and we will be back!!

Cosy bungalow near campus

Our family of four - with two adult boys stayed for three nights in this great property. We loved the location that was a short walk from little Italy and nearby the case western reserve campus. The kitchen had high end appliances and it was great to have two bathrooms and a washer dryer as we stayed during college move in. The privacy and easy check in are ideal. In a perfect world there would be at least one king bed but that is just me being picky. We will stay here again for sure!

Just as expected and close to everything

The Carriage House was a perfect home base while we supported our daughter through surgery at The Cleveland Clinic. Easy drive to the hospital, easy walk to restaurants before and during recovery, clean, and a lovely neighborhood for walking our dog. It meant so much to be able to bring our dog to be there for our daughter when she got out. Thanks Kristen. We appreciated your hospitality and responsiveness to questions. Warm regards, Terri

Wonderful home near CWRU

Our family was in Cleveland last weekend for our son's graduation. As expected, almost all hotels were already booked. However, we preferred to stay in a home with a kitchen to cater to our restricted diets. Kristen's Carriage House was the perfect choice since it was close to CWRU and also to our son's apartment. The Carriage House is behind the main house and the path is a bit run down and not easy to maneuver if you have strollers or need a wheelchair. But the house has been tastefully decorated with lovely Kathryn White paintings, matching rooster themed kitchenware and cosy bedrooms. Kristen was kind enough to let us check out at noon because my son had a zoom class to attend. We really appreciate her flexibility and thank her for being such a good host.

Great Time in Cleveland

This house was first quality all the way. We really enjoyed our time there. It was so convenient to everything we wanted to see. There was also a nice grocery store just five minutes away. My sister and I were traveling with our elderly mother and this place was perfect. Large walk in shower, one level and only two steps up to the house. Check in was easy and our host was very responsive. I would definitely stay her again when I come back to Cleveland.

Unique Property with an Untold Story

We were in town for a weekend concert at Severance and stayed at this Carriage House. The Carriage House itself is very nice and its interior has been renovated. What did throw us off was the condition of the main house and the yard which are still in a significant state of disrepair. The lawn is overgrown with broken statues, walkways and collective clutter surrounding the exterior which you see from the carriage house. We had no contact with the owner and it wasn't clear if they lived in the main house or not. This was a grand home in its day and I assume there are longer term plans to restore it but the current condition was a distraction and, at some level not knowing the area, a concern that the neighborhood was not safe. I'd suggest to the owner that they provide some welcome history of the overall property upon arrival to share a perspective on what it was (maybe even pictures) and what it hopes to be. Knowing this story would offer some life and positive energy to the property. The location is great - a 10 minute walk to Little Italy and University Circle offering little cafes, coffee shops, and restaurants. Luna Bakery Cafe was a favorite.

Just right in every way

We (2 adults + 1 teen) were in Cleveland for a brief visit and college tour. This lovely carriage house was a convenient and cozy home base for our University Circle adventures. We appreciated the location which was within walking distance of cafés, a bookstore and cocktail lounge. Furnishings were elegant and comfortable. When we had a question about hot water during our visit, Kristen's response was immediate and attentive. Communication throughout booking and stay was welcoming and professional. We'll definitely be back!
