The best VRBO property I’ve ever stayed in. Great communication with the host, exceptionally clean and well maintained home! The home was prepared with every amenity required for a comfortable stay! The home was situated for easy commuting into Cleveland to attend Guardians games! Five star rating for sure!

We are a group of 3 couples who do a Friends Weekend once a year. This was our 5 stay together.
We had a fantastic time at Sentimental Stay. What a great house!! Everything exceeded our expectations. George & Karen thought of everything. We arrived to a personally written welcome note & a box of treats from a local bakery. The home is spectacularly clean & beautifully decorated. The amenities & personal touches were top-notch all throughout the home.
We had a wonderful time & would highly recommend Sentimental Stay to anyone looking for a great spot to stay in the Mentor area.

We loved our stay in Mentor. The house is absolutely gorgeous and backs up to walking paths and a lake. We cannot say enough good things about it and would love to stay here again!

Sentimental Cottage is beautifully done and well thought out for guest comfort and accessories for personal needs and functionality in the cottage.
We would definitely love to stay in the future. There are also a park and walking trails behind the property that are very well maintained and safe.
The Host communication was excellent! Responsive, informative, and timely. We also chartered a fishing trip with Chagrin Valley Charters—you will never be disappointed by Captain Nick (owner/operator) all around great family trip! Thank you George and Karen!

Very nice area. Convenient to many local amenities. Home was super clean and had a great layout for multiples family units. Owners had equipped the home with everything we needed to have a great stay!

I don't think I could say enough good things about our stay at this wonderful property! We were ready to move in after one weekend there! It had absolutely everything we needed. We will 100% be booking here again for future visits. Here is a rundown of how well this location fit our various needs:
Grandma (80s): Especially because of mobility issues, she loved that everything she needed was located on the first floor. Other than entering and exiting or wanting to go out on to the LOVELY porch room, she was able to get around very easily on her own. It was also nice for her to have a bathroom to herself.
Mom/Dad (50s): Our favorite room was the porch room. We had lovely spring/summer weather while we were there, but being able to turn on air and still have the outside light and views was wonderful. We also loved how stocked the kitchen was with items we could use to cook at home. The back patio with outdoor seating was a lovely surprise! We thought there was only a firepit area. Having BOTH was awesome.
Daughter (20s): She loved having a space to herself upstairs AND a shower of her own. She appreciated that there was a fan waiting in that room for extra air movement.
Dog: He loved having a backyard which was fenced in making it both safe and homey. He was very happy to be included in the trip and grateful he was accepted in the house :) He couldn't smell that any other guests had been there, because the house was so clean and sparkly!
Awesome spot!

We absolutely loved the house. It was clean and every small thing we could think of was available. The beds were comfortable, and the house had a lot of room. The owners were very attentive and responded to any questions I had. I will definitely be booking again when we visit family.

This is our second year in a row we have stayed in this beautiful home during the holidays. Besides the home George and Karen are one of the best and most attentive renters we have ever had. They take the time to make the stay personal for you. They left us some yummy treats that everyone was able to enjoy. The home is clean, homey, and just perfect for our family. Thank you again and hopefully be back next year!

Very clean and lovely interior. Loved the two master bedrooms on the first floor with their own baths. Wonderful screened/heated porch overlooking the yard. We really enjoyed the close walk to the lake. Plus the fenced in yard!! Kitchen was very well equipped. Communication with owner was great--very easy! Overall we loved it and highly recommend!
5.0
We had a wonderful experience at this home. It was truly dog friendly with dog covers for couches/chairs, dog towels near the door to the outside and fully fenced yard. The house was in a good location, was very clean with easy instructions available throughout the home. We would recommend this home and we will also stay here in the future.
5.0
The house was absolutely perfect. We had everything we could need and more. The first floor bedrooms were perfect for my grandparents as well as my partner and I. We could have our separate space away from the younger people. The kids could go play down stairs or outside and not have to be in the same area as us. My grandparents don’t have any other reason to go down but they want to come back to this house. 10/10

Very nice place to stay at. The owners have a beautiful place for guests to enjoy and relax at after enjoying the area with family.

The owners are fantastic in every way.

Perfect place to stay in mentor. Home was modern,clean, bright and spacious. Every attention to detail was evident from the wall art to welcome cookies. We used many of the board games available. Also dart board and Foosball. Overall a 10 plus rating. George and Karen's home knocked it out of the park!!!

I would definitely consider this property for future stays.

Perfectly situated vacation house, with backyard that leads to wonderful park with picturesque ponds, hiking; and short drive to Lake Erie beaches/ lagoons. Birding, kayaking, swimming, all readily accessible. Huge backyard to sit under the stars.

My matron of honor as well as my maid of honor and their dates and myself all stayed at this property for my wedding weekend. The property was fantastic and the hosts were amazing! They wrote me the sweetest note and got us muffins as well as a care package since they knew our stay was for my wedding. Highly recommend staying here!!

This warm, inviting, ‘felt like home’ property exceeded our expectations! Everything was perfect! It’s obvious the owners want their guests to feel comfortable- it was amazing!
5.0
Hosts made us feel like we were visiting a close friend. The home was beautifully appointed. Happy Spring flowers greeted us upon arrival and local treats were waiting on the counter! They even had bowls, towels and poopie bags for our dog. The property was like an oasis backing right up a park with trails around a pond. We would height recommend this charming completely renovated home. Thank you for making us feel so welcomed.

I can’t state how amazing George and Karen’s home is and how amazing they are as hosts. At a time where we needed to feel at home and with family, this place and the hosts made us just that and more. We can’t thank them enough for their amazing hospitality and we will absolutely rent their beautiful home again. I’ll leave you all with this, if you are questioning whether to rent this home for your family, stop questioning and just do it, you will not be disappointed one bit. Thank you again George and Karen, friends for life.

We are a large family and were in need of a place to spend Christmas close to family. This house was just perfect! This is our second year staying here because we loved it so much. Location is great and the festive touches around the property were made for a cozy holiday. George and Karen are wonderful hosts and we will definitely be back!
5.0
The house was exactly as advertised, with plenty of room for six humans and two dogs. The kitchen was especially great. It had everything we needed to make Thanksgiving dinner and the huge island allowed us room for all the dishes. The layout was perfect for us. Plenty of room for us to all be together in the same room without being on top of each other.
George and Karen were very responsive if I needed anything, but otherwise left us to our vacation.
The biggest surprise was the location of the park behind the house. It's much bigger than it seems from the listing and was perfect for taking the dogs on long walks (and bike rides for the kids).
We couldn't have asked for more. Everyone in our party thought it was perfect.

Karen and George Thank you .. this home is perfect for family gathering. Mentor's hidden gem!!
5.0
Cozy is an understatement, no stone left unturned; from the welcome note, to the immediate response during any communication, to allowing a family gathering for dinner (which was approved prior! Please always ask first so that we all can continue enjoing great spaces). Family came from all over the country for a wedding, to be able to host a quiet yet fun dinner to reminisce and create memories with family not staying over night was so incredibly gracious. The house was able to accommodate just my mom and I but was also so welcoming to my family. Morning walks around the marsh/ Veterans Park was an added bonus, especially during an unseasonably warm weekend. We rent vacation homes frequenting on the west coast, this home was most quaint, owners most receptive, great bang for your buck and just felt comfortable. It was such a breath of fresh air to step out of a contemporary rental and feel at home. Karen and George, well done! Your added touches did not go unnoticed. I hope to lock this home in on my next visit!

Everything and More! This is an exceptional property! Nothing has been overlooked. The description and reviews say it all, so no need to repeat, just read.
The cleanliness, kitchen and pantry are like an award winning cooking show, furnishings, reading nooks and decor are thought provoking, enclosed patio, pet friendly yard with cute accents and firepit. Walk to park, go to beach and fly kites, communication, easy entry, and all the extras. So much to appreciate!
In our eleven trips together, we said we'd never glamp in the same place twice, but....this one has made us reconsider coming back.
It's a perfect place for whatever your reason is to get away. Thinking of bringing hubby sometime too.
Kudos to Karen and George for sharing this property with us.

We rented this property for my in laws and their family as we got married in the area. We were very impressed by the cleanliness of the house, updated furnishings and beautiful outdoor patio. It was the perfect booking for what we needed. The hosts were gracious and had great communication throughout the process. I highly recommend this house to rent!

Our group loves to cook and enjoy time at the property as well as enjoying the area, so this property did not disappoint! The kitchen is well stocked, and the place was clean and comfortable. The extra goodies of having firewood, S'more supplies and baked goods on our arrival was a sweet treat! We loved how the house was decorated and the access to the park behind the property was great for our morning walks. George and Karen have made a property that feels like your home away from home!

We had such a great time staying at this cozy house. Not only was it clean and comfortable but it was fully stocked with necessities that you often forget to bring. Our families have pet allergies so we were nervous going into our trip but we didn’t hear a single sneeze and didn’t see a single dog hair. Since this location is a good meeting spot for our families we will DEFINITELY be trying to book this house again in the future.

Beautiful home with everything you need. Everything comfortable and the park behind the house is a great place to walk your dog. We loved the enclosed patio on the back of the house. What a bonus!! We'll be back. Thank you George!!

This was home away from home but even better! No detail was missed. From the welcome gift and packet of personal recommendations when we arrived, to the wood and roasting sticks for s’mores by the back door, to the thoughtful games and books tucked here and there, our family was beautifully taken care of. The home was immaculate and inviting. The kitchen was better equipped than my own and I’m a foodie. We took advantage of a beautiful park with walking trails that was accessible through the backyard and the beach and Lake Erie that were just minutes away by car. We gathered as a family with our grown children for a wedding, but it would be perfect for younger families as well. This was a great experience!

We only had two nights in the home, but enjoyed its features, particularly outdoors. Visited the nearby beach and downtown Cleveland for fun activities. Can’t wait to return for a full week.
