This is an amazing place to stay! The surrounding were beautiful and peaceful. The host thought of anything and everything you could possibly need. The house had so much character and you can’t run out of things to look at and discover.

The Cottage on the Hill was the prettiest, cleanest rental we have ever stayed in! We would not hesitate to recommend it or stay there again for our next visit to Ohio. It is exceptionally quiet yet conveniently located to many stores and restaurants not to mention the quaint Medina Square. We saw a family of deer with two babies on the property every morning and evening...around the beautiful pond and just wandering about. The home is stocked with everything you may have forgotten at home. I have never seen anything like it - so thoughtful of the owner to do. The home is spotless! That is always my biggest concern when doing a short term rental. I couldn't have cleaned this house any better if I scrubbed it myself! All of us who stayed there kept commenting on it. Do not wait too long to book this gem!

The perfect house and host!

If you're looking for a VRBO in the Medina area, then look no further. This house and host are fantastic! House: great secluded location right in town. We loved just sitting outside watching all of the wildlife hang around the pond. The house is huge and has plenty of space for everyone. Beds were comfortable, the house was super clean, and with the decor it felt very homey. Host: the extra amenities were off the charts. Alan, our host, has provided anything that you may have forgotten on your trip. Down to small items like soap or toothbrushes; they provide new ones just in case. The bath towels are plush, the shampoos are high quality, and even the toilet paper is top shelf. One extra feature we loved is that the host DOESN'T want you to strip down the beds which makes check out much easier. Communication was spot on. This may be the best VRBO experience we've had to date.

Exceptional doesn’t quite cover it!

It’s hard to find all the words to cover what it’s like to stay in this beautiful home and property. Absolutely everything was highest quality, thoroughly thought out, beautifully appointed and cared for. We all felt like we were in a home that we had all been part of for years. Everyone kept saying, this is so wonderful! Every need was met. Beds were so comfortable, towels were perfect , furniture and rooms were so lovely, everything you needed in the kitchen …. There was not one want for anything more. And then there was the property. The pond, trees, parents, planters and it came with deer, fawns, ducks, birds. I didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to return!The owners were wonderful to work with. Communication was exceptional. A hosts It doesn’t get any better!I simply can’t wait to return!

Sheila. Thank you so much for that review. This is just our second experience with the VRBO platform so your comments will be most helpful. You are truly the target market we want to reach ... people "coming home" to revisit Medina or coming to visit family living near Medina. I'm sure Joan will be reaching out Sheila as it seems you may be kindred spirits. Thanks again. Alan....
