Comfortable and Clean

We recently stayed at this charming old home and were absolutely delighted by the property and its decor. The house is very well maintained, with thoughtful touches that highlight its historical character while providing modern comforts. Every room had a unique charm, and we especially loved the cozy living room, amazing front porch and beautifully decorated bedrooms. Plus, we were thrilled that we could bring our dog, making our stay even more enjoyable!

Great place to stay

We came to visit our son at LEC and this was the perfect location. Took me less than 5 minutes to walk to his dorm. House is very clean. We got to bring our dog. Fenced in backyard, which was great. We will certainly stay here again!

Perfect except the noise

This is such a lovely, well-kept house with wonderful spaces and amenities. The host has added so many touches that make it truly a special place to stay.The kitchen is well-stocked, the water pressure and temp is great, the furniture is all comfy and clean - it was a great vacation “home.”The only unfortunate issue was the road noise and lights at night. It was very loud in the front/largest room all night, it seemed quieter but still present in the other rooms. All 3 rooms have street or other outside lights shining in as well and would benefit from darkening shades (the curtains somewhat dim but don’t block the lights). We slept ok with ear plugs.Would stay again, planning to sleep in one of the back rooms with good earplugs/headphones.
Wonderful breakfast spot on the enclosed porch

Cozy Christmas Getaway

Outstanding home! So charming and located off Mentor avenue. A market and small convenience stores located within a half block walking distance. Everthing you could need is provided. Very good amount of space. Backyard is great for your four legged family member. So clean and beautifully decorated. Master bed was extremely comfortable. Excellent shower and spacious bathroom. We will definitely book again.

A Perfect Gem!

We have stayed in many homes and by far this is the most beautiful house ever. We stayed a week as our floors were being refinished in our own home and the owners took care great care in making our stay quite lovely. Their attention to detail was above and beyond what we have experienced elsewhere. The house sits on a busy intersection in Painesvile so they provided a sound machine! The house is beautifully decorated and well maintained. Super comfy beds and pillows. One full bath which has been updated (love the tile floor!). Kitchen is simply, but elegantly equipped. Bright, cheerful lighting. Even the drinking water is filtered! Parking is ample and very safe. Great deck to sit out. The house vibes of joy and serenity. Loved it!!!Highly recommended.

Beautiful Home / Extremely Clean / Poor Location

The house was extremely clean and very cute. All of the rooms were decorated well and you could tell the owner takes good care of the house. The owner was easy to communicate with and was quick to respond. They had all of the extra amenities stocked up-kcups, mouth wash, etc. The only downside was that it was in a poor location. It was on the corner of two busy streets and we heard the traffic and the trains way past midnight. It finally settled down at about 1 AM. I appreciate that the owner had a sound machine in the room as that did help a little. Overall I gave it a three star review all due to the noise of the location of the house. If the house was in a different location I would have given it a five star review.

Very cute!

Overall we loved this place. It was in a neighborhood where the houses were very close together so we had the drapes drawn the entire time. There are some windows where the drapes didn't cover the entire window. And the front doors (inner and outer) are both full glass doors with no coverings which left us feeling very exposed because the house is at a 4-way stop where cars are often stopped for many minutes at a time. Same with the sliding glass door to the deck. There is also a window on the landing of the stairs which can be looked into from the neighboring house and happens to look directly into the bathroom on the 2nd floor. It'd be nice to have a curtain there too.
