Paradise in Ohio
The property is a literal paradise and the perfect place to unplug and unwind. I could not believe how beautiful and well taken care of the inside and outside of the property was. In addition, the home was better stocked than my own house! The owner and local care giver were amazing, down to Earth and available for all our needs. We will definitely be back!

Peaceful retreat!
We had a relaxing two night stay. Very quiet and peaceful, hearing only the pond fountain when outside. Plenty to do, with kayaks, paddle boat, hot tub and an amazing game room with just about every game you could think of. We used the fire pit, and the back of the house is great for stargazing at night. Hosts were great to communicate with both before and during the trip. Highly recommend!

Wonderful cabin for NYE weekend
Had an excellent weekend at Bonnie and Gary’s cabin with a large group of friends for New Year’s Eve! We were perfectly content with everything included on the property and could easily see returning in winter again or summer. There is so much to do, and so many details / amenities were taken care of. Plus, the cabin fit many of us, with room to spare. Bonnie was very helpful as a host and had thought ahead of everything too!

Relaxing
No cell phone service made for a great relaxing trip. We were able to disconnect for the most part. Wifi was available for text messages and emails when needed. The house was very clean and easy to find, plan on your vehicle getting dirty and dusty. In certain months a 4-wheel drive vehicle is recommended for snow. Loved out stay.

Beautiful and Peaceful
This was the most peaceful vrbo rental we have ever been to. The place was clean and had so many pleasant surprises once we got there. The out building with the little tea room was super cute. The fish that can be fed was cool as well and the pond was very peaceful. The owners were very accommodating and easy to reach out to. We lost power due to a storm and the owners went out of their way to make it better for us. We did not have kids with us but this rental would be perfect for families with kids. Would highly recommend this place.

Total package
This cabin was the total package! Very clean and well thought out. Between the game room, hot tub, boats, board games, feeding the fish, and discovering the unadvertised gems, no one had a minute of boredom. The kitchen has everything you might need for cooking/grilling/baking, the bathrooms have plenty of towels, and the beds are very comfy. Loved the landscaping and all the outdoor seating areas too. It’s all the details like scented candles, live plants, chips for the kids, etc that made it extra special. There were some plumbing issues during our stay but otherwise, five stars!

Property was everything the reviews said it was. We had the most relaxing vacation ever. Plenty of things to do and spaces to do nothing but relax if you wanted to. Our granddaughter summed it all up when she said “I’m so happy here I don’t even know what day it is”. We took full advantage of all the amenities from the game room to the Kayak and peddle boat to the fire pit and hot tub. Everything was perfect. The home was amazing, Thoughtful planning and love was evident. Such a great space for family game night and relaxation at the end of the day. Will definitely be back.

Best place we’ve ever stayed at
Everything was fantastic. The only thing we didn’t have was a pizza cutter, but a knife worked fine. 😂 The power went out for 2-hours and we realized there was no other heat source. Technically, we could have built a fire in the fire pit, but we chose to snuggle up in blankets! I would maybe consider a generator, being that remote. Perhaps some candles instead of only flashlights. Unbelievable place. We’ll be back.

Great Retreat to Relax
Our family had a great time playing in the game barn, feeding fish, going on hikes, playing sports in the field, and relaxing at the end of the day in the hot tub. Our two young sons were brave enough to take a cold dip in the pond. There is plenty of wildlife to watch around the pond and I’m glad I brought my night vision scope to sit on the deck and watch.
