What Our Guests Are Saying…

Spacious open-concept living room with hardwood floors, multiple sofas and chairs, a stone fireplace, large windows, and a wooden kitchen with bar seating in the background.

"Our church sponsored a mission trip to Norwalk & the mission team stayed in this property. The apartment made the experience so much better. The location is perfect. We wanted to be in downtown Norwalk, and this was great. It's huge & has all the amenities that we needed. Communication was spot-on. Every question & need was addressed. We had a very large group and they were very amenable. If you were looking for housing for a wedding, a family reunion, or a mission trip, this would be a great choice. — James

“This place was AMAZING. It was absolutely massive and the pictures do not so it justice. I was shocked at how big it was. It was immaculate and gorgeous. It was the perfect place for our multi-family gathering. As cliche as this is if I could rate it more than 5 stars I would!

— Allison

“Great place to stay for a large gathering of individuals. Very nice that the bedrooms are on a separate floor of the apartment away from the general living, visiting and kitchen area. Did not have any issues with noise even though it is in the center of the city.” — Robert

A look beyond the block

Nearby Amenities

Everything starts at your front door. Coffee, pastries, florals and more wait for you downstairs at Sheri's Coffee House, a craft cocktail is just down the hall at The Mail Room, and historic Main Street with its shops, restaurants, the 1819 courthouse, and the historic Carnegie Library, all unfold right outside your door. You could spend the whole weekend here and never move your car.

Summit Motorsports Park

Few towns our size can claim a national motorsports destination, but this one roars to life just across town. Home to NHRA drag racing & the legendary Night Under Fire with jet cars, nitro, & a fireworks finale, Summit draws crowds from across the country all season long. Grab the group and go feel the ground shake.

Firelands Rails to Trails

Where trains once ran through the heart of the Firelands, there's now a peaceful path made for walking, running, and biking. You might even find some horses on the trail! FRTT follows the old rail corridor through open countryside and shaded stretches. A scenic, level route that's good for the family.

Firelands Museum

It's only fitting the oldest museum in Ohio sits right down the block. The Firelands Museum keeps the story of this region alive, from the "Sufferers' Lands" that gave the Firelands its name to the artifacts & relics of the people who built it. A short, worthwhile stop for anyone curious about the ground The Stewart Block has stood on since 1881.

Norwalk Reservoir

Where everyone goes to slow down. A paved path loops the water, perfect for a morning walk or an evening jog. Its shoreline invites fishing or a quiet paddle. It's the easy, unhurried side of a downtown getaway. Throw some discs around the disc golf course or, if you’re timing is right, listen to some live music at the new amphitheater.

Eagle Creek Golf Club

A lush, public 18 hole course winds through wetlands, waterways, and greens. But you don't have to play to enjoy it: the clubhouse grill, Cameo at the Creek, serves up some of the best pizza in town with a full bar overlooking the course. Round up the group for 18 holes on the course or the simulators, or just come for the pizza and enjoy the view.

Steps away from all Norwalk has to offer.

You’re on the corner of Whittlesey & Monroe, steps from coffee & cocktails, and one block from our Historic Main Street boasting plenty of boutique shops, restaurants, bars, an art gallery and the historic Norwalk Theatre soon to make its comeback! Just minutes from Summit Motorsports Park, our beautiful reservoir, and plenty of nature trails, including the North Coast Inland Trail.
