Perfect in every way!
Our stay at Simba's House was ideal for each of our five nights there. The house is simply lovely, a blend of old charm and modern convenience, and perfectly clean. Three bedrooms, with beds for eight people made it perfect for our family. The house features an extremely well equipped kitchen, laundry room, and bathrooms on each floor. Plenty of linens are available, including towels, extra blankets (which we didn't need as it was July), and paper supplies, as well as body wash, shampoo, and hand, dish, and laundry soaps. The front porch has a delightful porch swing which looks out onto the village green and gazebo. Out back, there is a sizable deck and grill. Numerous camp chairs and BBQ equipment are available for outdoor enjoyment. The house is so well equipped, a guest needs to bring very little for an enjoyable stay. The location is fantastic with some good restaurants and a wonderful coffee shop within a couple minutes walk. More restaurants, a grocery store, and other attractions are short drives away. Finally, the owner is super quick in responding to messages and is wonderful to work with. We have a son and daughter-in-law in the area so we will be back and Simba's House will be our #1 choice for lodging. Fingers crossed it will be available whenever we need it!

Excellent host, comfortable and lovely home
We are a family of 6 (kids aged 7-11) who stayed here with my in-laws and 2 other adult family members. We've stayed here before and it was exactly the same. Very comfortable beds and couches, a very well stocked and usable kitchen, and nice outdoor area. Since we have kids in tow I'm always grateful to stay at homes that don't have a lot of decor or knicj-knacks that can get knocked over and broken. Thank you for the lovely stay, just like last time!

Just like home!
Enjoyed our stay at the rental. It is well equipped. Lots of extras like spices, coffee pods, umbella, etc (too many to list). Loved walking around town. We rented in my home town which allowed us to visit with family, but have place to relax & unwind.

Great hosts, convenient location
Our experience was great. The hosts had excellent communication, were very generous after a tiny check in issue, and allowed us an extra concession over and beyond what we expected. The house was large and accommodating for our group. The kitchen was fully stocked with every item you could need for meal prepping (your knives were even sharper than mine!) Thank you for a wonderful stay! We hope to stay again next time we're in town visiting family.

Great for Getting Away
I am a wedding consultant and florist. I was staying in Burton for a wedding I was doing at Sun Valley Event Center in Chagrin Falls, OH. The host provides almost everything you can think of. All kitchen cupboards are labeled so it is easy to find items. They have spices for cooking, some condiments in fridge, ice maker, K-cup coffee from I believe the coffee store in town. There is a Walmart about 15-20 min from Burton so, when you need to get grocery’s, you don’t have to travel that far. Nice large deck, (just wish it had a handrail) I have bad knees and sometimes going up and down steps it’s a little bit difficult but, I did it. The back yard, I was surprised to see a fence along just one side of the yard which made it so much easier for our dog to play in the yard when we went outside. There is no fence in the way back or on the driveway side. If you bring a dog that likes to wounder off bring a leash. The host Brian was very easy to get a hold of and answered all my questions. If you’re looking for a house that has room for everyone, this is the house. Downstairs you will find a very large kitchen with eat in area, dinning room, family room, living room, and a room like an office/play room for kids with a sofa sleeper, bathroom with walk in shower, and laundry room. All these rooms are connected like a circle, my dog had fun just going around from room to room. Upstairs, you have 2 very large bedrooms and one that has a twin bed in it. Bathroom upstairs is very large and is furnished with bath items. For the price of renting this home, it is well worth it.

Good experience overall
Good experience overall, and a very pleasant location. Snow storm and extreme cold hindered further exploration, but could see much potential near the center of thus small Ohio town. Frankly, we were a little annoyed at the to do list on the check-out instructions that we're not used to seeing. "Strip all beds and gather together near laundry room. Gather all dirty linens, then load them in washer and run. Load the dishwasher and run it." Seemed a little over the top, while also paying a cleaning fee. We did it, though. We enjoyed our stay, and it accommodated our group well. We did have a terrible accident in the home when our 8 months pregnant daughter slipped and fell on the stairs, badly breaking both bones of her lower leg. Quite traumatic, but the ambulance came quickly, despite the horrible roads, and the patient is recovering (slowly and painfully) following surgery.
