Our getaway

We had a nice little getaway! Place was cozy with such a cool vibe. It had everything that you would need and the property was beautiful. The outlets in the kitchen and part of the bathroom did not work, we did inform the owner when he was on the property. It was not a huge deal to us as we were only there for a short period.

Best place we've ever stayed!

When we travel we prefer to stay at home rentals because our dog travels with us. On this trip we stayed the cutest one we've ever stayed in and we are sad we only booked one night here! It is decked out in everything 70s and it's a flashback to everybody's mom or Grandma's house back during that decade. We loved it! They had 30 different games from our childhood, all sorts of toys, and oil lamp, period furniture etc. Just the best! Hosts were amazing. They thought of everything from Fresh eggs in the fridge from their chickens, snacks, coffee, tea, popcorn, extra toiletries, a gift bag for our dog and donkeys down the road that we could pet. Check this one out if you're coming this way to see the Ohio State Reformatory or anything else they have in this beautiful area.

Great Stay

Almost every stay across the world today is similar. Not this one. You win the prize for an inspired specialty! We who have lived through the fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties, and so on, really enjoyed your efforts to take us back in time. And the cleanliness, privacy, spaciousness, attention to detail, and extreme generosity speak to your passion to make people comfortable. We hope to be back next year for our regular visit to Mansfield.

Great spot for great price with awesome hosts

My friend and I drove to Mansfield for photography purposes and had been looking everywhere for a place with 70s style and decor. We didn’t end up staying the night because we live so close but the place is awesome and Barb is very kind and helpful!

Fun rental outside of Mansfield!

This was one of the best VRBO stays we've had! The decor was whimsical and fun, the unit was very clean and bigger than we'd expected, and the coffee bar and included items were so thoughtful. The area is quiet, yet still very close to Mansfield. Awesome stay!

It was a great blast from the past!

They went above and beyond!! My one and only issue was i did not see a hot tub...that said, if it was further away outside, i might have missed it given the time of year...they more than made up for it in accommodations, though! And, like i said, maybe it was an issue on our end!!

Fun Property!

My wife and I traveled from Granville to Mansfield to have dinner at Prohibition at the Caves. The property was beautifully decorated, very clean, perfect amount of room to relax. It was stocked better than any property I've ever rented from VRBO! Literally everything you might need. I'm going to tell friends about this experience, they need to see it!

Cozy, Cute, and Pet-friendly!

Just walking in the door we were welcomed by the whimsical fun 70’s decor and goodies for us AND our dog. Back to the 70’s made us feel like kids again! In between tours of the Renaissance Theatre and Ohio State Reformatory we read the various magazines and played with the toys that brought us back to our youth. Nothing is left undone here, from the games to the farm fresh eggs to the list of things you can see in Mansfield, plus brochures on EVERYTHING nearby, this place is a true gem! Bob and Barb are the most wonderful hosts. Highly recommend if you come to Mansfield!!!

Clean and fun

Super fun, everything you could need is provided from snacks to mouthwash. The host makes it a point to welcome you for the occasion of your visit. However, there is an odor in the bedroom. I guess the fact that dogs are welcome would probably explain it. I wasnt prepared. We sprayed febreese often and it helped. Just be aware if you have a sensitive nose or arent an animal person. The place is so clean and welcoming - it didnt make sense to us at all. We had so much fun with the toys and all the snacks too.

70s Vibe!

This house was amazing! We enjoyed all of the 70s items and feeling like we had stepped back in time. Barb included so many extras! She had anything you could ever need in the bathroom, the hot drink bar was out of this world (I have never seen so many choices!), she also offered movie night snacks! We were so surprised to open the fridge to see a dozen farm fresh eggs. They were delicious! Barb also left gift bags for us! So thoughtful! Her house was in a great location so close to downtown Mansfield, but in a very quiet spot. We had a great time!

Awesome Anniversary

My husband and I stayed for our 16th anniversary. We were welcomes with a "Happy Anniversary" sign. When we entered there was a card and wine left for us! We loved all the decor and everything about our stay! Thank you so much. Also close to everything....within 10-15 drive to the things we planned. Luckily, Walmart is 5 minutes away because not only did I forget things but a few pieces of clothing lol I guess I was too excited to think.
