*Please be aware that there will be heavy road construction on the main road in front of our home. This will not affect access to the house, but it will possibly create traffic, and there will be quite a bit of construction vehicles in general. Please plan accordingly*
Welcome to the Green Door Guesthouse! Our home is located very close to the main road that goes through the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, which will serve you well as you explore all the park has to offer.
Whether you're coming to visit family in Ohio or passing through our area for a some hiking and outdoor activities, our home will comfortably host a group of 6 with three bedrooms, closets, dining area and spacious kitchen.
Arriving at our home you'll find the parking area to the right side of the driveway. Please utilize this space for easy parking when coming and going.
Also note that while our home is on a spacious and largely quiet lot, Chippewa Rd is a main road in town and can be busy. Be watchful of children when in the front yard.
Upon entering our home, you'll be enjoying a *professionally cleaned* space.
**Fee Transparency**
Between paying our cleaner to clean our home and paying for professional laundry service (all that beddings take a while!), we pay a total of $145. We currently only charge guests $120, so we pay a bit each time :) We hope you understand this fee and why we ask for it.
When you come in, you will find yourself in the main living room. Here you can kick off your shoes and relax, read a book, play a game, or watch your favorite movies or TV shows. There is a soundbar to connect to for music, and a phone charger on the credenza that will charge any device that has Qi abilities. Turn on the fireplace and enjoy the warm ambience it provides, and with no clean up :)
Moving to the right you will find the three bedrooms and bathroom in the home. The first bedroom on the left has a queen-sized bed, decorated with outdoor-inspired wallpaper and two bedside reading sconces. The windows in this room overlook the backyard area.
The middle bedroom to the right of the bathroom has two single bed frames and cozy comforters on each. The windows in this room overlook the rear corner of our backyard.
The last bedroom has a queen-sized bed, two bedside tables with lamps, a dresser, and also contains the travel crib in the closet. This is a spacious room, and the windows overlook the front driveway. In the closet we also provide an iron and fan.
After you've settled in, make your way to the fully loaded kitchen where you'll find a dining area with seating for 6. The table can extend if you prefer, or you can keep it as-is for a more intimate dining style. It's a bright and cheerful kitchen, and you'll enjoy the spaciousness it provides. You'll find all the serving ware in the upper cabinets, silverware in the drawers, and cookware in the lower cabinets. The kitchen is amply stocked with appliances, including several ways to make coffee with our provided single-origin coffee, a blender, a toaster, and more.
But the true star of the show is our double-Belgian waffle iron...be the brunch hero as you dish out large, fresh, hot Belgian waffles drenched with our provided maple syrup (waffle batter is provided too!) This thing pumps out two waffles at a time, so you'll keep those hungry bellies full.
The rear door of the house is off the kitchen and leads to our back patio. With the winter months upon us, the patio is bare of furniture until spring. There is a gas grill on the patio if you do have the urge to whip up some burgers. The patio overlooks our spacious backyard, which includes a large open space perfect for throwing a frisbee, football, or playing small pickup games. There is also a kids clubhouse that we will have more stocked come springtime.
Back inside we do have a basement where we offer a washer and a dryer. There's not much to say other than it's a basement :) But we do hope you enjoy the convenience of being able to do your laundry in a pinch if needed.
Finally, please note the garage area is not used for parking and is for storage only. Please do not attempt to park in the garage as it has low clearance and can damage your vehicle.
*No parties or events* Though we love a good party, our home is not the right venue for it. Our house capacity is 6. If you plan to have someone over for dinner, BBQ, etc., please contact us first.
*No smoking of any kind inside the home* For the comfort of future guests and out of respect for our home, please do not smoke inside the house.
