We stayed at Cozy Cottage while attending the Moto America races at Mid Ohio. It’s the perfect location. Close to track, yet far enough to enjoy the peace and quiet. The cabin was very clean and stocked with everything you need. We had a great time, and hope to return next year!

Willow Cabin

Great cozy place close to the slopes! Worked wonderful for our family and the woodstove was a huge bonus to warm up to after a day of skiing and tubing. Would definitely consider staying here again! We would love to see all this place has to offer as we did not get a chance to venture out. Beautiful pond and gazebo across the street as well. Thank you for sharing your place with our family! ❤
