Brenda has an amazing home, and by amazing I say we enjoyed the kitchen and dining area the most. Had just enough room to spread out for together time. great for large family time.

The house was plenty big enough for all of the family for a wedding we attended over the weekend. With 3 bathrooms it was easy to get ready. We could have used mirrors in the bedrooms but again there was many of us getting ready for a big event otherwise I’m sure it wouldn’t have even mattered. Loved the full length mirror in the master along with all the shelves and closet space for suits and dresses. Although no one used the tv downstairs, it was nice to have that option if someone didn’t want to watch the baseball games as we were consumed with the games. We enjoyed walking the safe, quiet neighborhood and sitting out on the deck with the lake view. We didn’t get to take advantage of the fire pit or grill but again the option was nice. We did hit the grocery store (about 15 minutes away) and took advantage of the kitchen amenities, to cook a large breakfast. There was plenty of table and counter space for everyone. All the linens including towels and bedding were nice and good quality. Unfortunately my mother packed up one the blankets that laid at the end of one of the beds accidentally, thinking it was my sons because he was using it all weekend. So I was asked to replace it, as I should have been. I had no problem with this charge for again it was good quality and obviously our mistake. The house has been tastefully updated as well. Brenda was very accommodating and quick to respond when I reached out. Thank you!

Nice location and property but be prepared to be nickel and dimed by a very rude owner who will charge you for AC being on (which we never used) and fridge door not shut all the way. Left the property with no trash and clean and still charged a fee. Everything is great except owner unfortunately.

The house is as advertised, and we really enjoyed it. We were disappointed that there was no access to the lake, beach or any community resources. We knew it was private but assumed as part of the rental, we would have guest access. We did not notice the last statement in the description that mentioned this. Google did not help by adding local resources distances that made it seem like they were available. Ultimately our fault for not seeing the last sentence. We just don't want others to have the same surprise.

Gorgeous property, porch looks right out over the water, and its just across the street! Better yet, my son lives less than a mile away, and we fot to do fireworks, on the lake, swim, and visit, all together! We even cooked breakfast and dinner, awesome kitchen for gathering!!Thank you Brenda for everything!

Brenda’s home was a wonderful experience all around. We were pleasantly surprised with the size of the house and the ample amount of room for our group. The home was very very clean and had everything we could have needed during our stay. The area is beautiful, we can’t wait to stay here again in the coming years!

This house was quite nice except the furniture is not user friendly if you have mobility issues. Example, My 33 yr son couldnt even get up off the sofa. Its nice furniture but for older people with back and leg issues we couldnt sit on it, so we sat at kitchen table all weekend. Other huge issue was the fact that most of the area is gated and we only found 2 common areas for fishing on the entire lake. If you dont have a passcard you cant even get to the beach. That was not explained to us til we were there. So unless you have family that live there and will put their lives on hold while you're there, this area is not for you.

This is a beautiful home with lovely views of the lake. We booked the house so we could attend our daughter’s graduation from Kenyon and found it was just what we needed to regroup between events. It is only about 10 minutes from campus and has a fully equipped open concept kitchen so we were able to have some of our meals away from the overbooked restaurants and dining hall meals. The house is well represented on the website. The photos are accurate but it is even nicer in person. So glad we booked early.

This property is very clean and comfortable! Has everything you could ask for in a rental- outdoor living space on the deck with views of the lake, as well as kitchen and laundry needs. We’ll definitely rent this property again!

It was VERY clean, well stocked, and just a BEAUTIFUL place. Brenda was flexible with our needs which we really appreciated. Even though we ended up not taking our dog, it was a perfect place to have one. Even the deck was gated. Family friendly house in a nice neighborhood. Thanks Brenda!!!

We had a fantastic 2 night stay at this amazing property just 10 minutes from Kenyon College. The house was gorgeous, near a lake, and had plenty of space for my family (dog included). Highly recommended for those needing space when visiting the Gambier area.

Our family enjoyed a beautiful stay at Brenda's Artistic Retreat! This was by far the cleanest property we have ever experienced. The kitchen was a dream and wonderful for making a homecooked meal for our Kenyon student, The beds were truly comfortable, the spacious shower was fantastic, and we all wanted to bring the couches home with us. :) There was a gorgeous view of the lake from the deck-the perfect place for morning coffee. Thank you for a relaxing and worry-free weekend!

We loved our stay at Apple Valley. The house was in a great location, and we could see the lake from the front porch. The unit was clean and had lots of space for our family to sleep and spread out.

I would say that this listing is 100% accurate, but it's actually understated. I've stayed in many vacation properties and am usually quite satisfied. However, this stay was exceptional. Beautifully appointed, meticulously kept, full of relaxing, energy and kindly managed. It will not disappoint

The Hostess was amazing, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. This home was spotless in every way. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could want. This beautiful home was so comfortable, everything was provided you could want. It was so calming and pleasing to one’s eye. We had the perfect view of Apple Valley Lake on an upper level deck. We will stay here again. Judy Bud and Tulip

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this VRBO property. Brenda was fantastic to work with. Only issue was that there were no washcloths provided. Thankfully we brought a few with us just in case as we weren't sure they would be available. This home was completely renovated recently and immaculately clean. You will not be disappointed!

It was a great quiet, peaceful place to stay after attending the 3 day music festival. We were even greeted by a deer when we got back from the store.

Brenda was the best host we have ever had. She was great at communicating with us, and just one of the sweetest people we have ever met. I would rent from her anytime! We’ve stayed at other places in Apple Valley and they don’t even compare to this one. The view was beautiful, and the inside of the property is stunning. We had 4 adults and 4 kids and had plenty of space for all of us. The home was stocked with everything we needed and it was so clean! We will definitely be coming back! Thank you, Brenda!!!

Great location near lake and front entrance of Apple Valley- owner had great communication and even purchased us a new charcoal grill for use while there. Price vs amenities and spaces of house are great. Downstairs living area would be great for kids separate from upstairs or two families sharing the house. Highly recommend!!

We had a lovely and reinvigorating visit. The house was clean and pleasant and good for a larger group of mostly adults as it had many bedrooms. The kitchen was large and good for preparing large meals in. The neighborhood was nice for walks. Some of us went to nearby golf course, which was also good. A great place for a group getaway.

Thanks Brenda for a beautiful spot to spend some relaxing time with friends. What a wonderful location. We spent most of our time in the spacious open kitchen/dining area and on the porch over looking the lake. The space was perfect for the 8 of us. Thanks for providing everything we needed to just relax and enjoy each other's company. We hope to make a return trip soon.

This property looked brand new and was beautifully maintained. We stayed there instead of in the dorms for our 45th college reunion. The house was perfect for us. Great indoor and outdoor space for chatting. We'd book again in a heartbeat if Brenda is still VRBO'ing her home, when we come back in 5 years for the big 5-0.

We loved our stay in Apple Valley! This was our first time using VRBO. The host was very responsive and kind. The house was very clean and had everything we needed and more! The updated interior was both beautiful and comfortable. I enjoyed the local artists work displayed throughout the home-such a nice touch! Plenty of extra blankets including throw blankets in the living room. Although we only stayed a weekend I miss drinking my coffee with a view of the lake. Highly recommend!

This stay, the property and even Brenda were absolutely phenomenal. Firstly, I have a service dog and I loved that this property is pet friendly. They have dog treats, dog poop bags, and even a bin to throw away any dog waste that you have outside. This small but personal detail made such a big difference to me. Secondly, the place was so clean!! The place is decorated so beautifully and modern, but yet so welcoming and warm. The location was phenomenal in the sense that it is quiet, peaceful, right near the lake, and close to a private beach in the neighborhood. The neighbors were so friendly. My husband and I loved our morning walks and getting to explore the views. Check-in was so smooth and Brenda was so sweet enough to let us check in earlier since we were traveling for 8 hours. Communication with her was smooth and easy. She is so friendly and answered any questions that we had. We had originally went to Ohio for a wedding and not completely excited about our stay, but yet we ended up loving it and not wanting to leave. The house is stocked with olive oil, salt, pepper, all the spices you would need, and Brenda even supplied a spring glass bottle of water for us. All the dishes, pots, pans, & everything was super clean. The deck has a direct view to the lake and some patio furniture so you can sit out and enjoy it! I cannot emphasize enough how much we loved staying here. Thank you Brenda for being such an amazing host and allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!

I planned a girls' weekend/yoga retreat with 4 of my friends this past weekend and stayed here. The house was immaculate and beautifully decorated. It definitely had the spa-like feel we were looking for with plenty of room to spread out and do yoga. The bedrooms were good sizes and the beds were comfortable. The property manager was very responsive to questions before and during our stay. The view of the lake was perfection. If it had been just a little less windy and a little warmer, we would have spent more time on the deck! The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals and plenty of seating. I can't say enough good things about this property. We are alrady planning another trip!
