About this property
Akron (Portage Lakes) Peaceful Lakefront Cottage with Kayaks
Imagine being surrounded by nature away from everything but still only minutes from all the luxuries of what you need & want. Picturesque community in the heart of Portage Lakes that reminds you of what life used to be like. Quiet & enjoyable, whether your cooking out, kayaking on the lake, swimming, or relaxing with a fishing pole. This is a hunting & fishing paradise. Need or forgot something, Acme fresh market is less than 5 minutes away with no traffic along with an array of restaurants & shops. Not to mention endless parks, biking & hiking trails. 20-25 mins will get you to The Pro Football Hall of Fame, Akron Zoo, The Science Center, Cuyahoga National Forest & Golf courses. The Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame is 40-45 mins & the No.1 Amusement Park in the World Cedar Point is just over an hour away. What you will notice about what we are trying to do here is make everything less stressful. Like providing outdoor gas grill, kayaks with life vests for all sizes, Tiki Torches for those nights whether you need them or just want them for ambiance. We also try to surround you with plants & flowers. Binoculars to watch humming birds & owls, wood peckers and other beautiful birds. Everything nature has to offer is just a stay away. We have completely remodeled everything from Fresh paint, New furniture, wood floors, cabinets to the granite counter tops and then some. It will stay nice and (clean) for every guest that stays with us, that's our promise to you. We believe we will be your come back destination. See You Soon... P.S. People with mobility or weight issues may have trouble at our location. Also if you a complain alot & carry a negative energy. Please don't consider us. Anyone can find something wrong with anything.

I had an amazing weekend with my two best friends. The back patio was our favorite spot. The water, the birds, everything was amazing. I would highly recommend this place for family or friends for a weekend getaway.. communication was awesome and everything was top-notch.
We needed a place to disconnect and enjoy some downtime. This was perfect. The lake was so calm and we loved watching the birds. It was a little too chilly to take the kayaks out but I know it would have been an amazing way to see the local wildlife. The proximity to Akron made it an easy trip to see the local sites, too! Definitely worth the trip.
This was a perfect little spot for us to spend a few relaxing days directly on the lake. We loved having the kayaks! Steve was prompt with all his communication, and we would stay here again :)
This property is peaceful, quaint and well-furnished. The host is responsive and kind. It is absolutely lakefront with all the perks available (kayaks, grilling, firepit).
The property was as described to a tee! The Lake view was Great! Communication with Steve was great too! We would book it again! It was good to visit where I grew up!
The owner was so accommodating! I lost my mom this past week and the house was so warm and inviting just what we needed . The owner was very friendly and inviting. Such a Beautiful view ! Thank you
We really enjoyed kayaking on the lake in the comfortable kayaks supplied by the owner. There was a lot of birdlife on the lake and we sat on the deck and patio enjoying them and the lovely flowers and plantings in the yard. We had fun also checking out Cuyahoga National Park which was not far away.
We wanted some place close for a long weekend. The house was tiny but tastefully decorated with a nice outdoor area. The dock was safe but could use some updating. Owners were super easy to work with let us keep our boat at the dock. We would stay again!
My husband and I stayed for a couple of days, and it’s such a beautiful setting! The house is super neat and clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay! We enjoyed sitting on the deck soaking in the peacefulness and watching the wildlife by the lake. Our host was wonderful, checking in to be sure we arrived safely (late check-in). The check-in and check out process was super easy and smooth. All in all, this was a terrific experience! Highly recommended this lovely property.
We enjoyed our stay. The cottage was nicely decorated and very clean. We had what we needed to cook and be comfortable there. The back yard was so beautiful and we enjoyed relaxing on the deck. There was lots of wild life surrounding the lake - we even observed a Bald Eagle - the provided binoculars helped too.
We were close to the Ohio to Erie bike path and enjoyed riding bikes into Akron. The host communicated well and we had a very relaxing time.
Property is exactly as advertised. Owners were responsive. We had beautiful weather and thoroughly enjoyed the outside space. Appreciated that linens and basics were provided.
We were in the area to visit family and are very pleased we chose this cottage over a hotel. Thank you!
The lake view and outdoor space are perfect for a peaceful getaway. Cottage has been updated, very nice! The second bedroom is located down a narrow spiral staircase. Anyone sleeping in the 2nd bedroom would have to come upstairs to use the toilet.
We met friends from Columbus for the weekend. This house was within easy driving distance of the Towpath trail. We also toured Stan Hywet. The outdoor setting is beautiful.
The drawback was that the only toilet is upstairs in a half bath. One of the bedrooms is downstairs. And there is a narrow metal winding staircase to go up and down
Traveled over the holidays with my 10 year old and grown teen boys to see family nearby. The house fit our needs perfectly.Read the reviews to get a little more insight into the place beyond the description (other than the one where someone drunkenly walked into a neighbors house). The description is accurate, the reviews, for the most part, are accurate, and when we're back in the area we will absolutely look at staying here again.The host is responsive, the neighborhood is quiet, the lake is great, and the place was exceptionally clean.Thank you for having us Steve!
My wife and I had a relaxing time at this location. It was great being right on the lake. We were able to fish and kayak from the back yard. It felt safe and secluded.The property manager was great. We had a bad storm come through overnight and lost power. He arranged for someone to come over and clean up the debris without us even asking.And if you are into wildlife, this is a great spot. We saw a bald eagle, hawks, cranes, otters and blue jays...All from the back patio.The location is only a couple minutes away from a grocery store, which was very convenient.
The property is cute and nicely decorated. Location is very good and close to things. Host was very attentive and communication was great! Just note the downstairs has a spiral staircase that could be a problem if you have mobility issues....The shower is downstairs, the toilet is upstairs. This was not a problem for us but just keep that in mind.
The place is very quiet and it was a perfect getaway for us to sit by the water and enjoy the tranquility. Access to the Towpath trail is very close which we enjoyed! Downtown Akron is less than 30 minutes and we enjoyed some very nice downtown restaurants as well.
