Other Things to Note:

⚠️ House Rules⚠️



🚫ABSOLUTELY NO PARTIES — ZERO EXCEPTIONS 🎉

This home is monitored by neighbors and staff who notify us instantly if a party or event takes place. If an unauthorized gathering happens, your reservation will be terminated on the spot and you’ll be required to vacate immediately without a refund (this includes no refunds on any unused nights). Any cleanup related to a party or "gathering" no matter the size will also incur additional cleaning fees and labor/material fees for any damages that were caused.



🚫Renters must be 21 years or older to book and stay.



🤫 Noise:

Please keep noise to a minimum when outside. We use decibel readers (they don’t record conversations) to monitor levels.



🔇 Quiet hours: 10 PM – 8 AM

💸 Excessive noise may result in a $500 fine due to past neighbor complaints.



🚭 Smoking:

No smoking inside the house — $500 fine for violation

Smoking outside is allowed



🚫 Strictly Prohibited :

Underage drinking or drug use

Unauthorized guests



🎉 No mini waste:

Avoid confetti, glitter, water beads, balloons, or tiny plastic/glass/metal pieces.



👫We respect my neighbors to the fullest and will not tolerate any gatherings, parties, or unauthorized guests. If you violate any of my house rules or those of the OTA community, you will be required to vacate the property immediately, and no refund will be issued for any unused nights.



🔥 Grill Use:

If the property is equipped with a grill, guests are responsible for refilling the propane tank if needed—but don’t worry, just send us the receipt and we’ll reimburse you!

If it’s a charcoal grill, be sure to bring your own charcoal. Happy grilling!



📌 Hot Tub House Rules:

Hot Tub Cleanliness Fine: $250

To avoid this, please follow these simple rules:

🚿 Shower with soap and water before entering to remove lotions, oils, or substances that affect water quality.

⏳ If you have sensitive skin, limit use to 15-minute intervals and shower after use to avoid irritation.

🛁 Use beach towels, not bath towels.

👫 Max occupancy: 7 guests

🚸 No unsupervised kids

🚫 No diving or jumping

🍔🥤 No food or drink in the tub

♨️ Turn off the jets after use

✅ Always cover the hot tub after use

❌ No pets in the hot tub

❗ Do not turn off the hot tub — only turn off the jets.

🧴 Do not add any chemicals, chlorine, bromine, essential oils, bath products, or hot tub scents without HomeHop’s knowledge and approval. Overuse or misuse of chemicals may result in additional cleaning or maintenance charges.



👟 Shoes off inside:

Please remove shoes indoors to help keep the home clean — the asphalt driveway can track in dirt. We appreciate your understanding!



📌 Checkout note:

We leave a short list of optional checkout steps — not mandatory, but very appreciated to help us prep for the next guest. Thank you! 😊



📌A damage protection option is required for all reservations and is processed through our third-party system prior to arrival. Guests may choose either a $500 refundable security deposit (pre-authorized hold, not a charge, released after a damage-free inspection) or a non-refundable damage waiver of $50, which covers accidental damages beyond normal wear and tear.

The host or property manager was very responsive. Unfortunately the hot tub was in terrible condition when we arrived. They did make several attempts to fix it but it never got to a usable condition while we were there. They gave us a 50 to make up for it. Everything else was good.

Great house and nice view of the lake!

Great stay

The house was beautiful with a great view of the lake. The house was clean and as advertised! It was cold during our stay so we didnt get to enjoy the lake but the indoor fireplace and board games were great. Easy to get to and i would definitely stay again when we’re at the lakes. The host was very responsive to questions and loved the extra touch of the coffee bar.

Retreat Planning

Great location for our leadership team to plan an upcoming retreat weekend. Secluded & peaceful area. Nice location off of the lake with close access to restaurants & grocery stores. We would recommend providing additional blankets if you plan to do more rentals during the winter months. Luckily we were all local to NE Ohio, so we were able to bring some with us, but for anyone traveling by air, this would be problematic.

Elderly view

We felt the space was very good and neat. Enjoyed the facility and lake views from our house. Wish there would have been a chest of drawers or closet to hang/ place clothes. We had to live out of the suitcase. Showers were large and bathrooms were great. Cons: Communication was only through the IPad so it took some time to get the light issues resolved. We never got the code for the washer and dryer. The windows of the sliding glass doors and the kitchen were dirty. Especially noticeable when the sun was shining.

Portage Lakes Beauty

This vacation rental is wonderful. The house is beautifully appointed, very clean and incredibly comfortable. With 8 of us ladies there to celebrate our trip around the sun, it was the perfect house and location. We never felt cramped. There were many places to congregate including the deck and the solo stove on the patio. The views from the deck, especially at night were peaceful, beautiful and relaxing. It’s close to a beach and the Akron city scene and restaurants, but mostly we loved hanging around the house.
