About this property

Make your visit to the beautiful city of Berea memorable!

High On Berea is a lovely home that was built in 1938. It is conveniently located near Berea College, Boone Tavern, and Papaleno's restaurant. The beautiful hiking trail called the Pinnacles are about a 10 minute drive from the home. The city is known for its arts and crafts. You are walking distance from Downtown Berea and the Square, both areas full of local artisan shops and attractions. You are also within walking distance of the College where you can take walks and enjoy the scenery - it is a beautiful campus.

The home sleeps 4 people. The space includes a kitchen, dining room, bathroom, living room and 2 bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen bed and the second bedroom has a full size bed. Living quarters are on one level with 4 stairs leading into the house and 2 stairs at the curb of house. Parking is available in the driveway to the left of the home. City ordnance does not allow parking on the street.

Directions: the easiest entry point is to turn onto Fee St. and follow the curved road to the house that will be on your right. This will help in parking on the street. You can exit by simply passing the house and following the curve. It will look like you're driving into a parking lot - but you are able to get to the main road from this lot.

We only allow 4 guests to stay at our property. If more than 4 guests end up staying; we will add a $30 charge for each extra guest.

Weekend Stay
The house was clean and the beds were comfortable with plenty of extra blankets available. Among the VBRO amenities listed were television and stereo. I did not find a stereo anywhere and there WAS a television, but no cable connection. This was disappointing, as I assumed "television" meant I would be able to turn it on and watch programs. The outside lights (front, side and rear) didn't work; I assume light bulbs needed replaced. The listing stated there was a city ordinance prohibiting on-street parking; apparently the neighborhood didn't get the memo as there were at least 12 cars parked on the street at any given time. I loved the keyless lock/entry system. The heating system worked really well. The hardwood floors were beautiful. The toilet was a tad bit loose; it shifted a little when you sat down. If you plan on cooking, a few pots/pans are provided, but bring everything else as only salt and pepper are provided. Overall, it was a nice clean house in a quiet neighborhood.

The house was cozy and very clean and comfortable. A house number would have been useful in locating it.

Great Homecoming Weekend
We had a great time visiting for Homecoming weekend and our 10 year college reunion. The house was clean and well equipped along with a great location, close to the college and downtown! Would definitely stay again when we come back!

Wonderful stay
This property was charming and close to Berea College, where both of my children are students. The inclusion of the story of the owner's attachment to the property was very sweet and a nice bit of history. We enjoyed it!
