Comfortable and clean. We had everything we needed. We stayed there two years in a row while attending a swim meet at Kenyon College. Perfect spot to relax in-between being at the pool.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The inside of the house was spacious and accommodating for our family.The bug zapper in the kitchen by the dining room table wasn’t too inviting. We also noticed ant traps meaning there is a problem with them too.The outside of the house needed work. We had to run the clean cycle 3 times before using the hot tub. The porch and deck needed cleaned and the home needs pressure washed. The window sills were dirty and many cobwebs. We also had to clean the grill before use.Positively, we liked the close proximity to Mohican, the beautiful wooded setting, and comfortable sleeping arrangements.
We didn’t enjoy the bug zapper and ant trap right next to the dining room table.
Concrete driveway is in bad condition- cracked and broken
Dirty windowsills 
House needs pressure washed outside.  Porch and back deck too.

This home was above and beyond other VRBO's we've stayed at. Hot tub was wonderful, beds and pillows heavenly. Plenty of supplies, even spices. Will definitely come back but stay longer!

Quiet Retreat

The home was clean, comfortable and welcoming. We arrived late and were happy to see the lights were on so we didn't have to walk into dark, unfamiliar house. The host was great at responding to a problem with the hot tub and immediately fixed the problem.

Late Valentines Day getaway

The home was absolutely beautiful! Cleanliness was 5 Star! Accessibility was very easy. Ease of booking was great! The style and comfort of the home was really cozy. Location to local destinations was ideal. Hot tub was a HUGE plus! The home had all the things we needed for our stay. Would HIGHLY recommend for a couple or family. Plenty of room!

Beautiful Home

The property was so elegant for the area. Cute and clean and we were one of the first to stay at the property based off the tags and smell of the home. We did have to get a few supplies like trash bags, paper towels and toilet paper for our stay though because there wasn’t enough for the length of our stay. We loved the beds and the couch was so comfortable. We enjoyed our stay while visiting family in town!
