About this property
Modern 3Bdrm Home | Family-Friendly, Close to Zoo
This newly built home offers a peaceful, suburban feel while being surrounded by historic, tree-lined streets and old homes full of character. As Akron natives raised just minutes from here, my wife and I are proud to share this home in a neighborhood we love. We’ve thoughtfully crafted a true home away from home in the heart of LeBron James’ hometown.

About the host
Hosted by Corey Coker

Hi, we’re Corey & Kim! Born and raised in Akron, OH, we’ve been hosting short-term rentals since 2019. With 15+ years in the financial industry and over a decade as real estate investors, we focus on the little details that make each stay feel like home. We’re passionate about creating warm, welcoming spaces where guests can unwind, make memories, and feel a true sense of belonging.
Why they chose this property
The property offers the best of both worlds located in a brand new development, but a few doors down from abolitionist John Brown's home, which is one of 15 sites in Ohio that's included in the Underground Railroad Trail! Just five minutes from the Akron Zoo this beautifully decorated home is also near the Simon Perkins Stone Mansion, the family who founded Akron in 1825! The house backs up to a green house, which creates a serene and peaceful environment anytime of year. It would behoove you to book here for long or short stays alike. Looking forward to having you!
What makes this property unique
Aside from the reasons that we choose the neighborhood, this property has a game room that features a Pac-man arcade game along with other games that will take you back to your childhood!
