Towpath Cottage Retreat – Super Pet-Friendly Canal Home with Hottub, Fenced Yard & Luxury Massage Chair

Welcome to your Towpath Cottage Retreat, a super pet-friendly canal-front home designed for traveling professionals, outdoor adventurers, and anyone who loves comfort and calm. Tucked along the Ohio & Erie Canal in Akron, this 3-bedroom home offers the perfect mix of serenity, convenience, and modern luxury — complete with a full-body electric massage chair that melts away stress after a long day.

Inside, you’ll find a bright, clean, and thoughtfully furnished space that feels instantly like home:

Primary Bedroom: King bed with plush linens for restful nights

Second Bedroom: Queen bed with cozy charm

Third Bedroom / Office: Twin bed and spacious desk, perfect for remote work

Unwind in the fully finished basement, featuring a large flat-screen TV and plenty of room for movie or game nights. Then, treat yourself to a session in the luxury electric massage chair — a guest favorite for soothing sore muscles after a hike or a long shift.

The fully stocked kitchen includes everything from cookware and utensils to a coffee maker, blender, and crockpot, making it easy to cook and gather.

Outdoor Serenity:

Step out to your large deck overlooking the canal — complete with zero-gravity loungers, a bistro table, grill, and fire pit. The fenced backyard (open only at the water’s edge) is perfect for dogs to play safely while you relax or dine outdoors.

    We had a very nice, comfortable stay here. The neighborhood was quiet and the home was clean. It was easy to find due to the yellow porch light. Our host was very kind and responded quickly to our needs. The only thing we didn't prefer was not having access to the thermostat. However, our host was very prompt and turned the heat up remotely for us. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Amanda!

    This home was great!We stayed at the house for a little over 2 weeks.The neighborhood is quiet, and the drive to stores and the local watering holes are close by. The house is very comfortable.

    Cute house along the towpath. The yard is fenced on 3 sides, would need to be cautious on the 4th side along the creek if you have curious animals. Very large patio deck, inside nicely decorated and clean. Appreciated the driveway parking rather than on the street. Nicely finished basement w very large washer n dryer.

    We were so happy with our stay! Everything was so clean and beautiful. We got use of the massage chair a lot. We loved the view behind the house it was amazing to sit and drink coffee and watch the birds go by. The only thing I would do different is a hand rail going down stairs and an extra pot. Everything else was perfect!
