This cozy cabin was absolutely lovely and well equipped. Krista was incredibly responsive. We loved the wood burning fireplace and appreciate that our hosts had a well stocked wood pile waiting for us. There were so many thoughtful touches that really made this stay special. We look forward to returning in warmer months to explore the grounds and make use of the lake.

We stayed at Cozy Cottage while attending the Moto America races at Mid Ohio. It’s the perfect location. Close to track, yet far enough to enjoy the peace and quiet. The cabin was very clean and stocked with everything you need. We had a great time, and hope to return next year!

Super sweet cottage with perks

This place is a hidden gem. We loved the small cottage and the wonderful view and peacefulness. The host was super nice as well. So much better than staying in a hotel and at a better price. Loved the pond and kayak use! Will definitely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Kris Mason

Host profile image
Your hosts are Kris and Mike - sister and brother. We retired early from city-based life to start our own family farm.

Why they chose this property

Willow Cottage and Pond shared a border with our farm. When the previous owner decided to sell, we jumped at the chance to add this delightful property to our homestead.

What makes this property unique

Located on scenic Possum Run Road in Mansfield, we are near many Richland County attractions and less than a mile to Snow Trails.
