What a cute little home with all the things you need to enjoy a long or short stay. The location was a bonus as it was close to all the things we wanted to see or do. I will definitely tell people about it if they’re heading to Toledo we throughly enjoyed our stay.

Quick Getaway

My wife and i decided last minute to get away for a couple nights and was fortunate enough to find this wonderful bungalow. It was a good location with access to anything a couple would need and the premises was clean, well taken care of and great for the 2 of us.

Great, cozy home

House very much exceeded our expectations. Cozy, comfortable, well equipped, nicely decorated, bed was super comfortable, linens were very nice, many amenities, and items supplied and yard was very nice. Highly recommend it. Couldn’t believe all the spices they offered in the kitchen.

Grandson visit

This was the perfect spot for us. We just became grandparents and our son lives less than a mile from this house. The house has everything you need, I was able to cook for the new parents and they even came over for dinner and watched some football. The house was like a home away from home for us. An excellent kitchen with a grill out back. As long as this place is available we will stay here for all our visits.

A cozy retreat

The property was great-very cozy. Everything we needed was there and easy to find. The only problem we had was with communication. You communicated very well with us, before we even arrived. The welcome note and ideas for places to go were lovely touches. We actually went to 3 places you gave us info on-the river cruise, the farmers market and the zoo. We need to come back. I didn't communicate because it was hard to use the Vrbo app. Sorry about that. I'm not real tech savvy. We'd love to stay again next time!! Maybe when its nicer and we can take advantage of the great backyard. Thanks for the lovely visit.

Cute and Thoughtfully Appointed

Bee 1 Bungalow is precisely as its name implies. It is a small cottage in a quiet neighborhood, despite it being centrally located close to one of Toledo's major shopping street. Within walking distance is the Franklin Park Shopping Mall and many other stores and restaurants. The spaces inside are small but well designed. The original bedroom sports a queen sized bed and I applaud the owners for figuring out a way to place it. Getting out of the right side is a trick as it is very close to the wall, but for a single person or couple it isn't a problem. All the amenities in the home make it cozy and inviting. The bathroom is well stocked with everything anyone needs for a stay. The linens both in the bath and bedroom are plush and accommodating. There is also a small room towards the front that the owners have nicely made into a changing room and storage for luggage and clothing. This expands the bedroom area and makes for a larger feel. The living room is comfortable with a large sofa and chair, both of which recline. There is an electric fireplace under the TV which brings that cottage'y feel to life. The kitchen is extremely well stocked! All the thoughtful touches are quite charming including snacks and welcome gifts. The garage is large and remarkably clean. For a single person or couple Bee 1 cannot be beat. We will definitely consider it again for a future stay.

About the host

Hosted by Sandra

Host profile image
We love to travel (retired airline employees, so we do like to try to use our passes whenever possible!) We also enjoy a good road trip... stopping frequently along the way to check out awesome small towns & parks. Sometimes we take our road bikes to explore up close and personal. Or if we have our two dogs with us, we like to find beautiful hiking trails to explore with them. Choosing to stay in vacation home rentals, we've discovered hidden gems away from typical "hotel rows," often inspiring fresh ideas we share with our own guests.



Why they chose this property

So close... yet you'll feel so far away from it all. Located in a quaint neighborhood that's located right off of a main retail thoroughfare with many stores, shops, restaurants & pubs to walk or drive to.

What makes this property unique

You will feel right at home with many nice amenities inside... and also be able to enjoy the privacy of a very large backyard to relax and unwind when you're not out and about with activities.
