Hot Tub, Walkable to CVNP, Private Waterfall Trail, Firepit

Welcome to River Rock Retreat, a haven in the heart of Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Enjoy the hot tub with a nature view and explore the private trail leading to a stunning waterfall. Unwind by the outdoor fire pit, surrounded by bistro lights, and savor a barbecue with the gas grill. Walk to downtown Peninsula's coffee shop, dining, and shops, or trails in CVNP and the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad. A short drive brings you to Brandywine/Boston Mills Ski Resorts and Blossom Music Center.

Enjoy the balance of nature and convenience in our home that will comfortably accommodate up to 6 guests. With serene wooded views from the hot tub and an on-property trail that leads to a waterfall view, our home is perfect for nature lovers or those looking for a relaxing escape.

This home features three cozy bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. The primary bedroom is complete with a plush king-size bed and a private balcony for morning coffee while the other two bedrooms are furnished with queen-sized beds. All bedrooms have blackout blinds, extra pillows and blankets, Roku TVs, and USB ports for your device charging.

The fully stocked kitchen, including spices and cooking oil, is perfect for making home-cooked meals while the dining room has ample space to fit everyone. You’ll love lounging in the aesthetically designed living room playing games or watching Roku TV with your group. Finally, the three seasons room offers a beautiful spot for morning yoga, enjoying a nature view, or curling up with a book.

Step outside and discover your private oasis. The hot tub and fire pit, overlooking a wooded area, set the scene for cozy evenings under the stars with six adirondack chairs. Roast marshmallows, share stories, and create lasting memories with loved ones. The outdoor gas grill is perfect for barbecue nights, and the spacious front yard provides ample room for yard games and outdoor activities.

Weekend getaway
My husband and I had an amazing weekend getaway. The home served as a perfect base camp for exploring and hiking in Cuyahoga Valley National Park. We have stayed in numerous VRBOs over the years and this definitely ranks in the top. The attention to detail and all the little extras were wonderful surprises. Though only in the home for a weekend we would have been comfortable there for a much longer visit. Will definitely book here again when we return to the area.

3 Day Getaway
This is a charming, comfortable house that worked perfectly for us. The location is ideal for visiting Cuyahoga Valley NP and Cuyahoga Metropark. The host was easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Great location & comfortable stay!
This house was perfect for our family of five. Very clean, well-decorated, exactly as described in the listing. Communication was top-notch, check-in was simple, and there wasn't a long list of things to do before check-out. We really felt like we were pampered on this stay and appreciated all the details like empty closets with hangers, luggage racks in all the bedrooms, plenty of hooks in bathrooms and entryway, well-stocked coffee/tea supplies, and a handwritten welcome note and bowl of snacks! Large parking pad with plenty of room to turn around before pulling out. Only thing to note - the shower is a converted claw-foot tub which could be difficult for someone with mobility issues to navigate (stepping into and out of), but it wasn't a problem for us - just something to be aware of if that would affect you. Other than that, the house was simply amazing. The location is awesome - in the small town of Peninsula, right in the middle of Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Right down the road from a coffee shop, two restaurants, and a small upscale market. Short drive to the NP Visitor's Center and several trailheads. Close enough to Cleveland if you want to spend a day in the city, which we did. We enjoyed our stay and will book again if we plan another trip to the area.

Comfortable, Cozy and Close
This is a unique property with lots of room to spend time with family/friends and space to be alone. I agree this sleeps 3-6 comfortably. I found the beds to be comfortable, forgot to look at the mattress brand because I could use one in my own home. Kitchen was well stocked, while there was plenty of coffee for us, if you have many coffee drinkers in your party, bring some extra kpods. No dishwasher, but that didn't pose problems although could have brought extra paper plates to reduce cleaning time. Spent most evenings watching movies on the streaming ROKU TV, if weather had been better, likely would have had camp fire every night. Wood is already there.Trail to waterfall is steep and slippery if muddy (maybe could use a rope between trees at steepest points?) If visiting when bugs aren't bad and it's not wet, the creekside area is very cool. Property is centrally located in cute little historical village. Coffee shop within walking distance as well as a few trails, bike rentals too for the flat trail that goes along the river and a couple restaurants. Costco and grocery stores only 10-15 minutes away, easy enough to hit up after a hike. Hadn't realized there were two skiing hills, one with tubing. But easily accessible from house. I travel often and stay in these types of homes. I found this to be one I'll keep on my list to return to if visiting CVNP again. The responsiveness of the owner/manager was exceptional. Any issue was small but resolved quickly.

Weekend getaway at BM & BW
Excellent VRBO! Every detail was perfect- super clean, comfy bed, high quality pillows, plenty of towels, a well stocked kitchen… even a welcome basket with an hand written note- incredibly charming home and host! Brought my middle school son who’s been working hard at school and his friend up from the C-bus area to explore a new ski place and we even had time to hike in the national park. We enjoyed playing board games and relaxing at the house in the evenings. The boys loved the trail and waterfall to explore and even found a fossil.

Fantastic getaway!
Such a cozy home with great character and amenities! Close to everything in quaint Peninsula, but feels relaxing surrounded by trees. The hosts are fantastic to work with and communicative. We highly recommend and look forward to returning when we are back in this area again.

Perfect spot for CVNP!
My two friends and I loved Justina’s house! So beautiful, clean and comfy! We were able to make very short drives to several different trailheads at CVNP. The kitchen had everything we needed, living room and beds were super comfy. The trail to the waterfall on the property was cool; we’d love to sit in the Adirondack chairs in warmer weather. I can’t say enough about the comfort and beautiful decor. Six stars from us!

Perfect place for our trip!
Most people would probably drive right by the place but I'm so glad we had reason to stop! The inside is beautiful and every detail was very well thought through. Top notch communication from Justina. We were traveling with our two young boys and they loved the trail down to the waterfall. Within walking distance of plenty of other trails and the restaurants/shops in downtown Peninsula. We'll definitely look to book here again next time life brings us to the area!
