About Jan
Arts and sports fan. Now retired, I have worked as a factory worker, advertising agent, professional singer/songwriter, Fortune 500 company house organ editor and convention coordinator and newspaper reporter and columnist. I enjoy watching most sports, golfing and bowling, museums and art fairs and, especially, travel. Laid back, easy-going - that would be me. Oh, I'm single, for what it's worth.

Arts and sports fan. Now retired, I have worked as a factory worker, advertising agent, professional singer/songwriter, Fortune 500 company house organ editor and convention coordinator and newspaper reporter and columnist. I enjoy watching most sports, golfing and bowling, museums and art fairs and, especially, travel. Laid back, easy-going - that would be me. Oh, I'm single, for what it's worth. I'll always be available, but like a good umpire, you won't even notice me. Just respect my property and we'll get along great.
My place is close to Beautiful Atwood Lake. Youโll love my place because of the serenity of the rolling hills country, hiking trails over the 43 acres of land, the verdant lushness of spring and the glorious colors of fall. 30 minutes to the art and craft stores in Amish country, or the Pro Football Hall of Fame, the First Ladies Museum and fine restaurants in the Canton and Belden Village area. Pontoon and ski-boat rentals at the Atwood East Marina is a mile from the cabin. Live theater and professional sports teams in Cleveland and Pittsburgh are 90 minutes away.
Cabin has heat and air conditioning for your comfort year around. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers.
Why This Property?
This property was purchased by my parents in 1951. They sold land on one side of the county road that ran through the farm in 1968 and kept 43 acres with no buildings. The cabin was built in the late 80s and first lived in in 1990.
It has at times housed my parents during the summer, and at other times rented on a renewable monthly contract.

The cabin was refurbished over the summer back to a nice, comfortable place to spend some time.
Unique Benefits
When you arrive you will notice the quaint quality of the gently rolling hills and the combination of wooded and open land. I have hiking trails through woods and open land all over the 43 acres, plus there is a 40-acre plot of old forest abutting my property that is public land and open to your exploring.
One thing everyone who has stayed here so far has appreciated is the open fire pit just out

One thing everyone who has stayed here so far has appreciated is the open fire pit just outside the cabin. If you like cooking out, there is a charcoal grill available. If you REALLY like cooking out, I have a tripod contraption with a cooking platform that can be raised or lowered for cooking over wood in the fire pit. Also sticks for hot dogs or marshmallows for those decadent S'mores. Did I mention HORSESHOES? Just beside the fire pit. If you've got the spit, I've got the pit. Also bocce on the lawn.
Come in mid-February to mid-March and watch and learn all about making maple syrup the old-fashioned way. Very interesting process from collecting the sap to boiling (and boiling, and boiling) it down into syrup. If you get lucky and we have snow on the ground and you have some kind of sled or equivalent, there are several hills from easy to hold-on-tight. Can even make short (100-130 foot runs) on downhill skis. You'll find lots of options here and within 30 miles. Hoping you've been bitten and want to come see me in this lovely, rural wonderland.
