About this house rental

This house doesn't shy away from its age; in fact, it's the ideal haven for those who appreciate a no-frills, rugged aesthetic. It beckons to those who appreciate the allure of yesteryears. Pets are welcome however pet guest fees do Apply. 1 dog max.
This charming piece of history nestled on a hillside is a quaint 1919-built house. It isn't newly constructed, so we ask that you expect some things to be imperfect. For example the floors and steps may creek, you may have to give windows and doors an extra tug and their may be slightly uneven flooring areas due to setting. All of these things can be expected considering the age of the house. We like to call it character.
However, it's important to note that this house may not be suitable for everyone. If you have health issues or physical limitations, please consider carefully before booking, as the house features steep steps both indoors and outdoors that can be challenging to navigate.
Additionally, for the safety of our guests, we do not recommend this house for families with children under the age of five. The age of the house, combined with its location near traffic, makes it a potentially risky environment for young ones.

This driveway can comfortably fit two small cars at most, and sits snug between the houses. The driveway is shared at the moment. However, guest should have no issues parking in the driveway.

Be cautions of traffic and pedestrians when backing out. If driveway is unacceptable or inadequate remember there is a parking lot across the street for guest use.

Very run down. Pictures looked great but we're not updated. Glass and trash in the driveway. Over grown weeds and grass. The inside also had a odor.

The home was beautifully decorated, super cute with antique vibes, very clean and the bed that we used was very comfortable & clean.
The pictures and description of home are accurate. Close to Cuyahoga Falls, where we visited during our stay. This was our first time visiting the area, we definitely would like to visit again.
The driveway is steep, if you don’t feel comfortable parking across the street make sure you have an ebrake. The road the house is on has lots of traffic and can be noisy at times if you’re not use to traffic sounds, the neighbors house is very close.
Overall I would recommend this house, the host LaVone was lovely and easy to communicate with. She checked on us during our short stay to make sure we had everything we needed.
