This place exceeded our expectations. All the amenities included a full fridge, very nice kitchen set up, and cozy beds. Would be a nice place to stay for a few days to take advantage of everything. Kathy was very helpful and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice place, plenty of room for a family. Close to the college, restaurants etc. Owner is very hospitable.

This is a unique home, historic and updated with modern conveniences. It was clean and beautifully decorated. The king and queen bedrooms are upstairs, each with their own bathrooms. Our king bed was comfy. I especially enjoyed the adjacent large deck where it was fun to relax and watch squirrels and birds at tree level. The owner, Cathy Jo (CJ), is a caterer and the very definition of hospitality, being friendly, kind and generous. I can guarantee her kitchen is probably better equipped than anyone’s who is reading this! There are also many tables and places to sit. This makes it ideal for larger families and groups to gather. I understand parties can be held with permission of the owner. My husband and I enjoyed our stay!

Normally hotel goers, it took only a minute to get used to the idea that we were staying in someone’s beautiful home. Lighting set the mood for relaxation, and old-time charm was everywhere. The owner CJ was generous beyond belief, making herself available but never overly present. As a caterer, she had many accessories that we used to stage an after-wedding brunch, choosing from many glass platters, bowls and stemware. Comfortable seating aided conversations and there were enough tables (each with a lace tablecloth) in the front parlor. A carved chess game found a place (during our brunch) between two rockers on the front porch. And when the remaining ten guests talked about leaving, I sent them upstairs to discover “Heaven’s Landing.” The nature lovers came down from the covered deck over an hour later, with smiles and remarks about sitting among the treetops. CJ’s flowerpots and hanging baskets added another layer of delight. Our pictures on the steps of the wide front porch show us having classy fun. It was such a lazy, wonderful time staged successfully by the owner. “Thank you, CJ!” PS. This well-maintained, renovated, very old home sits in a nice neighborhood, on a larger lot than most. Google pictures show only trees, so it was real surprise to pull into the circular drive to see this freshly painted two-story gem. Parking for guests was under the trees (and off the road), and no one was ever parked in. Shopping areas are within a 5-minute drive.

A great place for a family.

My daughter and I were delighted with our stay at Cathy Jo’s bed and breakfast from the moment we arrived. She was a warm and welcoming host who thought of every detail. The home was charming, the bedding was comfortable, there were abundant snacks, and Cathy Jo personally assisted us with our visit in Mentor/ Cleveland. We appreciated her hospitality in every way.
