Perfect location

Great property in a very wooded neighborhood. Decorated wonderfully. We enjoyed the record player and records in the basement living room. My family lives near the house and we traveled from out of state. It was so nice to participate in family events and have a place for myself at the end of the day.

Best spot ever!

Back again in this cozy house in the woods! So quiet and peaceful yet minutes from everything. You can work out in the basement or just relax by the gas stove on the main floor with its wall of windows and screened porch - and games! Thanks again for a great stay!

Relaxed retro vibe

We were here for a weekend, Mary, the host thought of everything. The house had everything we needed, including extras like coffee and waters, shampoo, hairdryer, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed the screened deck for coffee and again in the evening for nostalgic board games and adult beverages. Loved it.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Lintern

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Mary! I am a full time National Park Ranger, and an American history and decorative arts enthusiast. My husband Dave and I are both Northeast Ohio natives. We look forward to welcoming you.

Why they chose this property

Our property is located in a quiet, wooded neighborhood with eclectic homes, hilly streets, and multiple cul-de-sacs. Perfect for people who enjoy walks and nature.

What makes this property unique

The guest house was built in 1957 as a pediatrician's office. It was designed by the doctor's husband who was an architect. The couple lived in the adjacent house, now occupied by hosts (me and my husband). A totem pole carved with various medical signs still stands next to the parking lot-style driveway. Much of the integrity of the original Danish Modern structure still exists, from the wood beamed vaulted ceiling with "spaghetti" finish to the ceramic tile bathrooms with original sinks and bathtub. The house has been furnished with some authentic mid-century pieces and other era-inspired pieces. Many of the appliances are new but designed to look retro. We hope you will have fun taking a trip down memory lane and enjoy the funky lamps, cool artwork, and other little treasures from the 50s, 60s, and 70s waiting for you to discover.
