Spacious, clean home in a safe, convenient neighborhood
Evan was a kind, communicative host. We enjoyed our stay and had everything we needed. Very close to downtown Akron so it was convenient.The following is a comment for all owners and for VRBO in general. We do not think it's fair for owners to request that guests strip the beds and take out the trash. Most places are fairly expensive as it is, and hotels don't ask for clean-up at check-out. We agree that we should clean the dishes we used, but paying to rent a space should include cleaning it afterward, including bedding and trash. We'd love to see owners stop requesting this as it's burdensome when you're just trying to pack up and leave.Otherwise, we had a lovely stay and we would recommend Evan's space!

Wonderful stay
This was the perfect house for our quick trip to visit family. The house was spotless and had everything we needed. We were very comfortable and were able to relax and enjoy our time there. Location was great and neighborhood seemed nice and quiet. We are planning to come back during the summer months and are excited to come back to this location. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Long Weekend Stay
Property located in older but well maintained neighborhood. It’s a short drive to several lakes with good fishing. Several trails and parks are also in the area. Family had a great time and enjoyed relaxing in a clean house. Perfect for a family of four.

Immaculate, comfortable, everything you need
We enjoyed the total eclipse at this rental. The nearby park was the perfect spot to walk over, cooking in or ordering out were also great options. Communication with the owner was thorough, timely and I knew if we ran into any issues (we didn't) that he'd be responsive. Will book again in the future!
