Hike or bike trails at Mary Jane Thurston Park, view Providence Dam, tour Ludwig Mill, take a boat ride on the Erie Canal. Visit the historic town of Grand Rapids, Ohio, enjoy casual or fine dining, a pizza with the family, and, of course, ice cream! Visit shops, including several antique shops, holistic and craft shops, "The Dam Gift shop," local wineries, take the kids to the play ground, hear local musicians and attend annual festivals.

We had a great stay and loved the location and view of the river. The place was very clean and well stocked. There was also a basket full of snacks and goodies for us. The refrigerator also had bottled water and drinks. The host was very kind and responsive to us. We will definitely be back again.

4th of July Weekend

We really enjoyed the river access and brought our ski boat to the house. The views from the back of the house were great and being able to boat from Grand Rapids to Napoleon was ideal. We even stopped in at Lallys Marina next door for a ski rope and bag of ice.

Clean and Cozy

This was a great place to stay! We were in town for the weekend visiting family, and the location couldn't have been better. The house was clean and cozy, and the river view out back was just gorgeous! The host provides a lot of little extras to make you feel comfortable, and we had a really great time.

Comfortable getaway

The house was great for visiting with family. Plenty of open space inside. The space at the river was fun for all. Dining and ice cream was just down the road in Grand Rapids. We will stay again.

Home Away From Home

This is our second stay at this property and we loved it! The owners are incredibly thoughtful and we loved the basket of goodies! We were there during a very hot time of the year and the air conditioning was great. The house is very clean and there's plenty of room for everyone to stretch out and relax. There are several places to eat within 15 minutes or so, and the kitchen is well appointed if you want to make easy meals at the house. We really enjoyed sitting in the back yard watching the boats on the river and taking in the beautiful sunsets.

awesome stay!!

We thank you for sharing your home with us. We loved the location because I was visiting a friend that lived on the other side of the river and came to pick us up on her pontoon!! My husband and son got in a lot of fishing, so that was a plus!! If available we will stay with you again. Thank you again Susan DiVenuto-Young

Relaxing home on river

The view was great, home well stocked. Overall, we were pleased. Few items that could use attention; yard needed mowed, dryer took a very long time to dry clothes. Other that that we had a good stay

Amazing!

I cannot say enough good things about our stay. The host left a basket of snacks which was extremely thoughtful (and there were even a couple bottles of wine in the fridge!!). The house was spotless and the location was beautiful (right on the Maumee river). I contacted the host prior to booking to ask about the location with relation to a wedding we were attending and he responded within 30 minutes. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Zero complaints. Thank you!!

Older house but very clean with comfortable beds. They had everything we might need while using the house. A birthday banner and plates were left for us with some treats. Very nice of them. Would definitely stay there again.
There is a landing down at hill. There's a fire pit and dock. Only downfall was it was rocks instead of sand but still nice little area to make smores or sit by the fire.
Beautiful scene to wake up to. You can see it from the kitchen/ dining area perfectly.

We loved staying by the Maumee River. We grew up close to this river, brought back lots of happy memories. We loved the Welcome basket and all the amenities. They provided so much in the way of snack, food and drinks. Thanks so much for the Welcome Basket.I did have some computer issues but was probably on my end not theirs.
