The home is spotlessly clean, thoughtfully prepared, and designed to feel like home from the moment you arrive. It offers a warm, welcoming retreat where every detail is intentionally curated so you can relax in your own home away from home. Whether you’re sharing morning coffee by the fire pit, cooking together in the fully stocked kitchen with everything you need, or watching movies under a cozy blanket, guests consistently remark on how comfortable, relaxing, and surprisingly well-equipped the home feels. From plush seating to generous supplies and thoughtful extras, DuskHaven 1875 is the kind of place where you immediately settle in. Ideally situated between Canton, Akron, and historic Hartville, you’re just minutes from local favorites like Hartville Kitchen, Gervasi Village, and the Pro Football Hall of Fame, while still enjoying a quiet, peaceful setting at the end of the day. Originally built as a small family home in 1875 — when Ulysses S. Grant was president — this historic property has been thoughtfully expanded and modernized over time. Kitchens were relocated, rooms added, bathrooms updated, and porches and patios transformed into inviting living spaces that retain original character while adding the modern conveniences you will enjoy. Guests are welcomed into a spacious, character-rich retreat that feels impeccably maintained and exceptionally comfortable. Alongside historic details, you’ll enjoy lightning-fast Wi-Fi, an easy self-check-in experience with clear instructions, free parking, and a kitchen stocked beyond the essentials — plus all the small touches that make longer stays easy. Step into the large backyard and you’ll discover a quiet outdoor retreat with comfortable patio seating, a hammock, and a cozy fire pit, all set against peaceful surroundings and stunning sunset views. It’s a favorite spot for unwinding after a full day of exploring or enjoying a relaxed evening at home. As a bonus, you’re just a short walk from pizza and essentials at the nearby convenience store — a small convenience guests often appreciate. Centrally located between three major shopping areas and close to nearly every local event, DuskHaven 1875 offers unmatched convenience without sacrificing comfort. A private entrance, washer and dryer, generous linens, and hotel-quality beds with premium sheets make it easy to settle in — whether you’re here for a festival, a weekend escape, or an extended work stay. Whether you’re visiting family, attending events, or simply craving a comfortable, well-appointed escape, DuskHaven 1875 is the kind of place guests return to again and again — because it consistently delivers on comfort, cleanliness, and thoughtful hospitality.
