Welcome to Pinehaven, your freshly renovated home base in the heart of Mansfield, Ohio! This cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bath home comfortably sleeps 6 and blends classic mid-century charm with modern updates throughout. Whether you're in town for a race weekend at Mid-Ohio, a Shawshank pilgrimage to the Ohio State Reformatory, a ski trip to Snow Trails, or a family visit, Pinehaven gives you all the comforts of home with room to spread out and relax.
THE SPACE
Step inside and you'll immediately feel the care that went into this home. The living room is the heart of the house, with a plush sectional and cozy recliners arranged around an electric fireplace, a wall-mounted smart TV, and calming, modern colors throughout. It's the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring, watch the big game, or gather for family movie night with the fireplace glowing.
The eat-in kitchen comes fully equipped for everything from quick breakfasts to full family dinners. You'll find a gas range, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, cookware, dishes, and a butcher-block island with plenty of prep space. The dining table seats the whole crew, and morning light pours in through the windows while you enjoy your first cup of coffee.
Three inviting bedrooms offer comfortable beds, fresh linens, and soothing paint tones designed for a great night's sleep. Two bedrooms are on the main floor, and the third is everyone's favorite surprise: a finished upstairs loft bedroom with a vaulted shiplap ceiling, its own TV and seating area, and desk space that doubles as a quiet remote-work spot when you need to take a call or catch up on email.
Both full bathrooms have been tastefully updated, complete with hot showers, fresh towels, and plenty of storage. With two full baths, there's no morning traffic jam, even with the whole family getting ready at once.
You'll also have access to a washer and dryer, making Pinehaven ideal for longer stays, race weeks, ski weekends, and traveling professionals who want to pack light.

The Ohio State Reformatory - Tour the legendary prison where The Shawshank Redemption was filmed. Ghost hunts, history tours, and special events run throughout the year, and it's one of Ohio's most unique attractions. Just a few minutes from the house.
Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course - Race fans, this one's for you. Catch IndyCar, vintage racing, and motorcycle events all summer long in nearby Lexington, then come home to a real house instead of a crowded hotel. Book early for race weekends!

Kingwood Center Gardens - Wander 47 acres of stunning formal gardens, greenhouses, and the historic Kingwood Hall mansion. Beautiful in every season and a must-see in spring and summer.
Malabar Farm State Park - Explore author Louis Bromfield's historic working farm, hike scenic trails, and visit the Big House where Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall were married. The nearby Malabar Farm Restaurant is a local favorite.
