It was perfect for us. We live in Mansfield and Columbus. Some still working and dropped in for a day or 2 and 3 of us stayed the whole time. We have stayed in this area 6 or 7 summers up until 8 years ago when my husband died. I decided it was time to get the 3 families together again . It was a very fun relaxing week all doing their thing.
This property was clean, spacious and convenient for spending the night after a fun day at Cedar Point. There was plenty of room for our entire party and the beds were very comfortable - which is a must!
Two suggestions for improvement: first, while bedding was nicely laid out for the bunk beds, it would have been nicer if we didn't have to make them ourselves. And second, a 10 am check-out time when you also have to hand-wash all the dishes from breakfast made for a rushed morning. It would have been nice to have a little more time to relax before leaving.
There are train tracks fairly close, so light sleepers should consider bringing earplugs. Other than that, our stay was very nice. Thank you for making your property available!
The house was minimally stocked in the kitchen for accommodating eleven people. For instance, only ten plates ,glasses etc. Only small pots and pans , difficult to prepare large meals.There is no dishwasher although it was included in the description when we rented. One bedroom had bunk beds which was so squeaky that it couldnât be used . There are no dressers in any of the bedrooms,some closets didnât even have hangers .Un packing for a week stay was not possible. The air conditioning was good on the first floor but the upstairs two bedrooms were really hot at night . In summary the amenities were lacking considering the price. BRBO has not responded to our concerns at all.
We spent 3 days here with our kids - 2 with their spouses - 8 adults and 2 kids in total.
I've rated it 5-starts but what I mean is that the house met our needs. Everyone had a place to sleep, the house was super clear, and the host was very responsive. The beach was a short walk and we had a great time.
Nit-picky comments -
There's a train crossing nearby, and trains came through all night long. Some of us noticed, some slept thru it
Unless we just couldn't figure it out, there's no TV service other than the free internet stuff. At $700/night, I'm expecting at least basic cable channels.
The condition of the property was good but not great.
Beds were just OK and pillows were awful.
Long story short - I think you'll have as good a time as we did if you're coming to be with people you love. Just don't expect the house to impress you.
We had a wonderful experience staying at this property! Host was kind and attentive. Location was super convenient to Cedar Point and multiple other local attractions, plus a quick drive to lots of tasty local restaurants. I would definitely recommend this location!
Needs attention to detail, there were no towel bars in bathrooms or a place to hang all the wet bathing suits and towels, we bought a drying rack. No dressers for clothing storage. Grill is a smoker, had to buy charcoal. Wonderful large kitchen, no knives for food prep. Nice large TV, 1 couch and a couple chairs for seating.
