Well appointed & great stay

We have been twice now and look forward to returning. It is a perfect spot - we came to our daughter’s game and made great use of the kitchen (has everything and more). This is a wonderful house. And it’s super clean.

Comfortable and Cozy Kenyon Weekend

Had a wonderful stay at this charming home adjacent to the Kenyon campus. Beautifully decorated, clean and very well equipped kitchen. Made many meals for myself and my Kenyon freshman. Kitchen was well stocked with small appliances s wells as spices, oils, aluminum foil, plastic wrap, baggies, etc which was much appreciated. The kitchenware, appliances, towels, sheets and furnishings were all in excellent, like new condition! The host, Shelly, was responsive and very helpful. Highly recommend this special home for a trip to Gambier.

Comfortable, convenient, and exceptionally well-equipped

We had a great stay in this extremely clean and comfortable house within walking distance of the center of Gambier. It was, by far, the best-equipped home we’ve ever rented. Not only did the host anticipate every possible need, but everything in the house, from the furnishings and appliances to the dishes, cookware, utensils, sheets, and bath towels, was in excellent condition. The host was super nice. She responded promptly to any questions we had and even alerted us to detours around the road construction that was taking place in the area while we were there. The house was very comfortable for 4 adults with plenty of space to spread out. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the area or attending events at Kenyon College.

Shelly was a great host. She was incredibly prompt in answering any questions I had and clearly wanted our stay to be lovely. And it was! Her home is so well-stocked with everything you need. Kitchen was wonderful to cook/bake in. Would definitely stay there again. 😊

Wonderful Accommodations

Beautiful home in a wonderful, quiet part of town. Very close to campus. We had a great experience in Gambier. The home has everything you could possibly need. Lovely outdoor porch looks out on an expansive backyard. The hosts are very friendly. Highly recommend this lovely 19th century home that has been recently upgraded to all the 21st century comforts.
