Guests have access to the living areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, screened porch, patio, fire pit area, kitchen, laundry facilities, and outdoor spaces. ### Important Property Information This is my personal residence, and one of the reasons I am able to share it with guests is because my work and travel schedule frequently takes me away from home for extended periods. Rather than leaving the property sitting empty, I enjoy opening it to travelers, families, professionals, and guests who appreciate the unique character, space, and peaceful setting the home provides. Because this is a lived-in home, guests may notice personal touches, books, dΓ©cor, pantry items, household supplies, and other signs that this is a well-loved residence rather than a hotel or investment property. Many guests find this creates a more comfortable and authentic experience. The owner is typically away during guest stays. However, in rare circumstances, brief access may occasionally be required to retrieve work materials, maintenance supplies, or equipment used to support other local properties. Whenever possible, advance notice will be provided, visits are kept brief, and every effort is made to avoid disrupting your stay. ### Guest Access Guests will enjoy access to: β’ Living rooms β’ Guest bedrooms β’ Bathrooms β’ Kitchen β’ Laundry facilities β’ Screened porch β’ Fire pit β’ Outdoor patio β’ BBQ grill β’ Large yard β’ Parking areas ### Areas Not Included To help set expectations: β’ The garage is reserved for owner storage and maintenance equipment and is not available for guest use. β’ Certain closets, cabinets, storage rooms, utility areas, or workspaces may be locked or designated for owner use. ### Nature & Country Living One of the greatest features of this property is its wooded setting.

Guests should expect to occasionally encounter: β’ Deer β’ Wild turkeys β’ Songbirds β’ Hawks β’ Squirrels β’ Seasonal insects β’ Spiders β’ Stink bugs β’ Other outdoor wildlife common to wooded environments Despite regular maintenance and pest-control efforts, occasional bugs are simply part of living among the trees and natural surroundings. ### Neighborhood Overview Located in the heart of Novelty, Ohio, this property offers a rare opportunity to experience one of Northeast Ohio's most scenic and desirable areas. Known for rolling landscapes, horse properties, mature forests, and large residential estates, Novelty provides a peaceful countryside atmosphere while remaining remarkably close to modern conveniences.

May 2026 2.00We've gone back and forth on how to review this stay. We want to be kind, as we don't know the circumstances behind the rental, but being misled wasn't kind either. Honestly, this was a 2-star stay, I gave a 3-star because the property managers were lovely, responsive, and helpful. The setting is beautiful, with gorgeous trees and a wonderful wooded walking area nearby, though the busy road made being outside less peaceful. Our biggest issue was cleanliness! We arrived after a two-day drive to a FILTHY house and spent considerable time disinfecting. Dirty pillows, smelly blankets, dog hair, and grime throughout made us uncomfortable. The $50 refund did not feel adequate. There were also mice, unpleasant-smelling well water, unreliable internet, and a lot of noise between floors. The beds were comfortable, but overall, the dirtiness and odors overshadowed everything. We had a roof over our heads, but for the price, the experience was disappointing/undeserved and we would not return.

April 2026 4.00Spacious and well-appointed home in a beautiful, peaceful setting. Had a couple issues that were handled immediately and efficiently by the host. One of the best values weβve had using Airbnb.
