Summary: This cabin is nicely situated and more than met our needs. We were in the area to work for a few days and wanted something quieter and more private than a motel, where we could have our pet with us and cook our own meals. Although it was cold and snowy during our stay, we were warm and cozy. The owner was friendly and helpful. We would certainly stay here again.

Summary: My sister and I came from Cleveland and Columbus to stay at the cottage for two nights on a weekend in late October. The property was very clean and also well stocked with just about anything we could need. I appreciated the thorough communication from the owner. She offered lots of detailed information on activities and restaurants in the area as well as clear instructions regarding check-in and check-out. The location is great - surrounded by trees, it feels isolated enough to be relaxing but it is actually very close to convenient shopping, eateries and parks. I am certain this place would be beautiful any time of year, but our choice of timing was perfect with the fall colors all around. We had a lovely visit - we sat outside by the fire eating chili, drinking hot cocoa and roasting marshmallows. There were lots of birds visiting the feeders right outside the windows. We saw deer from the living room on more than one occasion. This was my first experience renting on Vrbo and I'd definitely recommend it!

Summary: Had a great time with my family in what we called “the cabin in the woods”. When we were not at our tournament, we were able to relax and have fun family time there. They have many indoor and outdoor games and we enjoyed marshmallows at the fire pit. The host was very attentive and a pleasure to deal with.

Summary: Very clean and well taken care of, excellent location, quiet and peaceful. Great place to stay. Janel was very personable and helpful. This cabin has great history and is in a beautiful location. We enjoyed the area-Galion, Mt Gilead, and Marion as well as all the little towns in between. Our dogs were very happy with the fenced in area-very dog friendly. Thank you Janel! Hope to visit the cabin again.
