    The house is spacious and comfortable with lots of areas to sit and relax - we had 11 people in our party and never felt crowded. The kitchen was also very well equipped!

    We so enjoyed our stay at 644 Walnut. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need, including crock pots! Location was great, near the art center. Our kids spent a lot of time there. Lots of room to spread out in the house. Pictures do not do it justice.

    We really enjoyed this property for our stay in Lakeside over the 4th of July. There were plenty of bedrooms, beds, closet space & dressers. In addition, the house had lots of amenities that we typically have to supply ourselves, such as hand towels, dish soap, laundry soaps, perhaps left by previous renters, but useful nonetheless. The homeowners were extremely responsive when I needed to ask questions about sizes of bathrooms or checkin/checkout questions. The location is so perfect to navigate to all areas of Lakeside.

    The cottage was clean and well stocked with cooking/kitchen essentials. The hosts were excellent and communicated well. The house was plenty big enough for 4 adults and 5 small children. Excellent experience overall!

    We've stayed in several Lakeside cottages over the years. This one was a great stay. The cottage is located on the main street (Walnut), up the other end from the downtown block. It's an easy 4-5 block walk to the shops and lake. The cottage itself is well sized - plenty of beds and bedrooms. I appreciate that there were at least four full-size or larger beds, plus 2.5 baths. We were a party of 7 and it would have been nothing to have had several more people staying with us. Plenty of space.The home has obviously been redone in recent years. It is well-appointed and clean throughout. The furniture was comfortable. The dining table easily sits 6, but you add in 2-4 more seats if you wanted.The owners communicated well and accomodated an early check-in, which we appreciated.It's not particular to this rental, but please note that you need to provide your own sheets. This is a Lakeside thing. As are the gate fees. Know about these going in so you're not suprised.All and all, this was a great rental, in a great place.

    The house definitely worked for the size group we had. Plenty of room and bedrooms. The floors were very dirty I would definitely have cleaning crew mop floors better. Trash cans were totally full so we could not but our trash in cans outside. House was not locked when we arived and we never located the key so we had to leave house open when we were gone.

    A historical, updated beauty! A perfect blend of period charm and modern conveniences . Nice gathering spaces and sufficiently supplied for our group of 10 college friends reunited to relax and share life experiences.

    We had a great stay. The house is bigger than it looks in the pictures. It is very thoughtfully stocked with all the things you could need. The house has been updated and the bathrooms are all bright and clean. The whole house was spotless. Great for multiple families. Location is across from the art building and an easy walk to all the Lakeside amenities.

    We stayed at this lovely house last week. It was ideal for our family of 8 adults and five children ages 2-9. The house was clean and VERY well supplied with kitchen supplies, blankets, pillows etc. We could easily walk everywhere. We enjoyed the beach, the pool, tennis, pickle ball, the playgrounds especially Gaga ball. We did rent a 6 seater golf cart which was quite handy. We also had a family reunion of 25 people from Elyria, Oberlin, and Ann Arbor at a nearby restaurant. Everyone wants to go back again.

    We enjoyed our stay at Lakeside because this property was so conveniently located and well equipped to serve the needs of our family with a variety of ages. The kitchen was a pleasure with multiple eating areas to seat us all at once or smaller groups inside and out. Communication was excellent and we plan to return! Thank you for sharing your home to make our family time so special.

    We were at Lakeside for an extended family reunion. This house is open and inviting, and much larger than it appears in pictures. Convenient to everything, but also tucked away a bit, so not much street traffic. Remodeled with decorative and durable materials, but still feels like a lake cottage. It was perfect!
