Weekend getaway with kids

We had a fairly peaceful stay for a family wedding out of town. Very affordable stay with the comforts of a home that gave ur two young boys space to play. Bedrooms were perfect size, kitchen appeared remodeled, and check in and check out were easy.

Cuyahoga

We enjoyed our stay in Portage Lake. The home was very clean. The beds were super comfortable. I loved the kitchen space! There’s a very nice size side yard which our boys enjoyed tossing the football. My husband did some fishing from the backyard as well. The location is pretty centralized to Cuyahoga, Little Italy and everything else Cleveland related. Evan responded very promptly with any questions or needs. The only complaint I have was the fridge smelled horrible- fishy- and did not function properly. Evan contacted the property manager and we had a mini fridge within hours. Much appreciated! Overall it was a great stay in a home that was super clean, comfortable and roomy for the four of us.

Very nice stay

Everything was fine. The only issue we encountered was that the refrigerator didn't really keep things cool (the freezer portion worked fine).
