Lake house stay

Our little family enjoyed the cozy accommodations. We took our small dog walking on the path around the lake across the street. Saw Heron and turtles. We also hiked in Cuyahoga Valley National Park about 25 minutes from the house. The coffee, snacks and water at the house were much appreciated.

Great hosts Beautiful home

Mike and Julie’s home is clean, cozy, and has everything our family of 4 could have needed. We felt like we were the first ones who ever stayed in their beautiful, updated home but I know we were not from the rave reviews we read before the stay. Our hosts were so helpful - responding quickly to questions posted in vrbo - before, during, and after the trip. Akron itself wasn’t what we expected but the house is located on a nice river walk and we enjoyed going to a minor league Rubberducks game!

Wedding Weekend Getaway

We were in the area for a wedding. When not at wedding related events, the house was the perfect spot to relax. We loved the view of the lake & enjoyed walking the trails around it! The house was super cute, clean & comfy (couches & beds)! The kitchen had everything we needed & even included yummy snacks! We would definitely stay with Julie & Michael again and recommend them to others. *If traveling with your fur baby, they have a great set-up - fenced in yard area, kennels in basement, toys & snacks. Something we'll keep in mind for the future.

Anniversary getaway

The home was lovely inside, very welcoming, very clean. The kitchen was equipped with everything that we needed (and the snack basket was a nice touch,). The bed and pillows were comfortable (I'm super picky about pillows- I always bring my own just in case). It was nice to see the lake from the living room and dining room- loved relaxing on the chaise lounge with our 2 little furbabies and and watching the geese go by (by foot and water). The shower was great- perfect water pressure. Returned home refreshed.
