Great Eclipse Viewing Spot
Our group of 8 spent a long weekend in Akron to view the eclipse and this property was great for our needs. The views were top-notch, the amenities were great, and the beds were comfy! We paddled and played and relaxed and had an all-around wonderful time.

New Year Vacation
This place was a great start to our new year. We were visiting family nearby and hosted them for a few dinners. My husband and I love to cook and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Dan sent detailed check-in instructions so arriving and entering the property was flawless and communication was great! The lake views from both floors are spectacular! Will definitely stay here again when we are back in town.

Relocation and holiday stay in December
Excellent communication and hospitality by the owners which made us feel welcome and appreciated. Could not have asked for a better rental while house-hunting and holiday shopping combined. We stayed in the winter, but the lake views in the kitchen and bedroom were so nice to watch the snow come down. Long views of the lake with very distant homes across the lake made it seem more secluded though we were in the middle of town. We would stay again and have sent links to others who also might need a rental.

Very quaint Lakehouse, tucked in a very welcoming town.
Our stay was short and was not particularly planned to enjoy any of the lake house amenities nor local festive activities happening in the town during our stay. We were in town just to pick up a puppy however, the stay was comfortable and did serve our needs. It basically rained the two days we were there, but this was to no avail due to our situation and reason for staying. Overall, nice place and totally wouldn’t mind coming back during the summer season.

Beautiful Lakeside Home
This property provided a wonderful and much needed retreat from the hustle and bustle of every day life. The views of the lake from the home are beautiful especially with the changing colors of the trees this time of year. We had so much fun playing the throwback Nintendo games and couldn’t have asked for better communication with the owners.

What a gem sitting right on Portage lakes!
This place was perfect for our family getaway! It was very clean, great location, peaceful, and nicely decorated. Communication with the host was wonderful and check in went smooth. Our family had a blast playing the Arcade game, the board games and kayaking with Kayaks found in the shed. There is a lovely shaded patio with a grill where the family can gather and dine. My husband especially enjoyed fishing right from the yard. We will be back next summer for sure!

Quick family getaway
Enjoyed our stay this past weekend. The kids loved being able to jump in the kayaks and go. We rented a pontoon boat from Dusty Landings and toured the lakes (another great experience). It was nice to come back to a very quiet and peaceful setting.

Fun Family Weekend
Kids joined us over the weekend. Enjoyed sitting at the outdoor table and kayaking. Several trips taken. All rooms met our needs. My husband and I stayed the week and the sunrise this morning was spectacular. Do not need to leave bed to enjoy.
