Neighborhood is marginal but home was great and communication was great

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!

We had an awesome stay here. Just perfect for four adults. We enjoyed taking a walk around the lake and sitting on the porch and exploring the area. Beds were comfy, two bathrooms was a nice benefit, and kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed.

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.

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.

House was just as described. Immaculate and hosts communicated timely, accommodating an early check-in request. Location is close to anything you’ll need. Highly recommend!

Stayed for a couple nights for a get away with my daughter and her friend before school started. The only thing I didn't like was the location isn't ideal and check in is timed. So I was there 3:58 (2 minutes early) and had to wait till it turned 4:00 to check in. I just thought it was silly but I suppose if I knew I was going to be any earlier than that, I could have told the owner. Other than that it was a great stay with great hosts that are kind and responsive. Thank you!

The perfect away from home, home! We had everything we needed. Our dogs loved the yard. All the comforts of home… my favorite was the grill. The place was very clean with an attention to details from the host. We look forward to staying again.

The house was just as pictured and had all the amenities, very clean and very reasonably priced. It was in a great location and easy to travel to the activities we were there for. The hosts were communicative. We did not have any pets, but someone who does would appreciate the fenced in yard. If we are ever in the area again, we would definitely be happy to stay there.

We had a wonderful stay in Akron during the Thanksgiving holiday. We were visiting our family nearby and needed just a little extra room. This two-bedroom was perfect! The lake felt like an added bonus. We highly recommend and would happily stay here again.

This property is very dog friendly down to the details. We were welcomed with a dog basket witch included two bowls, treats, a towel, and even a ball and tug rope! The fenced in area was great for Kana to burn off energy super bonus for me! If its to cold outside the basement was a great ball fetching area very long not listed in the photos, but very much appreciated for the area to throw the ball in doors.
The side of the house faced the lake was great for watching wildlife for the dog and myself!
Thank you, Thank you! for a clean place to stay! I clean for a living and its nice to arrive with out cleaning first.
Thanks again for sharing your home with Kana and I. we will be back!
