We had a group of individuals heading to the area for a long sports training weekend. Key for that type of group/event is comfort. The beds were incredibly comfortable, on par with my own bed. Although it was hot out and incredibly humid, the house temperature and humidity was comfortable. I was able to park in the garage. The appliances all worked as they should, allowing us to prepare and store all of our meal and wash clothes in the evening. The host was easy to communicate with and very friendly. It was also reasonably priced. We have already booked again for next year.

We would definitely stay in Shane’s lovely home again. We had a big group for our daughter’s wedding and needed space. The 5 bedrooms were so comfortable and inviting. Everyone who came over to visit was impressed with the main part of the house. Everything we needed and more. Even toys for our toddler! We highly recommend this property and Shane is wonderful to work with. All the best!

The house was perfectly situated close to downtown, near the beautiful Towpath and walking distance to grocery store and local shops. The home itself was beautifully decorated and comfortably appointed with a kitchen equipped for any cook. Too many "extra touches" to mention - there was even a yoga mat in the closet! The hot tub and fire pit were great perks. Plenty of space for the whole family. Thanks for a great getaway - it exceeded my expectations.

We had a great stay with two families with young kids. The check in and out was easy and communication was extremely prompt. The house was clean and had plenty of space for our group. We also loved using the backyard. We were only a 25 minute from the Cuyahoga National Park and 6 minutes from the scenic train stop in Akron. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone considering staying here!

This property worked out great for us (3 families, 8 total people)! The location was fantastic for our family wedding held at Stan Hywet. We really enjoyed the beautiful backyard and the proximity to Highland Square! Also found the host (Shane) to be very responsive and helpful.

Within minutes of arriving, our group had already booked a return visit. The property is spacious, clean and full of character. The neighborhood is charming. Would give a six star rating if possible. Already excited for our next stay.

This cute home was roomie enough for our family of 5 with three teens. The owners have done a great job modernizing the home while keeping its charm. We were here in mid October and the house was pleasantly warm with the cooler weather that comes with the season. The kitchen had all the necessary items to serve a meal without all the extra clutter that comes with some vacation rentals. The backyard was adorable and the beds comfortable. This location had easy access to all parts of Akron. When we return to Akron this location will definitely be our first choice.

Such a fabulous house in an awesome neighborhood
We absolutely loved the house and Highland Square was fabulous. Everything is within walking distance. The garden was beautiful, the hot tub was much appreciated, and the decor was great with all of the local touches. The Akron inspired wallpaper was a cute touch. The beds were comfy with soft linens, the towels were big and fluffy, and there were even a basket of cozy throws in the living room. And the hosts were super responsive. Great space for a garden party, game night, movie night, or family dinner. Highly recommend, especially if you have a large family or big group.
