8.6/10 Excellent! (12 reviews)

This property was more than I could have ever expected! It looks like something out of HGTV. It’s absolutely gorgeous and so many tiny unique details. The beds are very comfortable, lots of towels in the gorgeous bathroom and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything for preparing meals. Unfortunately we were only staying for one night but I will absolutely be booking here again! Things to keep in mind tho, the top floor bedroom with 2 beds has VERY steep and narrow steps so if you have balance issues or small children I would suggest not having them sleep in that room. Also it would be very difficult to bring up or down a large suitcase but for the one night we stayed it wasn’t much of an issue. The parking is limited and even with the wonderful specific directions it was a little confusing at first and we did have to park on the next block over after returning later in the evening after a concert. It wouldn’t deter me tho, just make me keep in mind how much I pack and have to unload into the unit 😆all in all it was a perfect place!! 10 out of 10!!!

A shot of the ancient octagon earthworks built by the Hopewell Indians. For a stretch, the land was owned by the Ohio National Guard who restored and maintained the earthworks. In the 1930's the land was leased and turned into a country club. I suppose being a golf course prevents the land from becoming a Walmart or CVS, but it still seems a little contrary to historical preservation.
