HERE'S A REVIEW FROM A RECENT GUEST -
"We booked the Tranquil Nest so we could watch the 4/8 eclipse. If Mother Nature hadn't gotten in the way of a great eclipse view, Candy and Tom's place would have been even more perfect. Everything was exactly as described. The personal touches and thoughtful way that Candy made us feel like we had been to Akron before just made the experience even better. We had a great time seeing Niagara Falls, Lake Ontario, and the surrounding areas. Candy's suggestions were so fab. They even recommended one last adventure on our way home to see the "Grand Canyon of the east" and it was amazing! I'm not sure when we will be back to Akron but if you're headed that way, you won't find better hosts. Thanks Candy and Tom!"
(At Best Nests of Akron weLOVE reviews, and all the wonderful guests that come to experience what Akron has to offer!)

Niagara Falls is often seen as the last stop along the Underground Railroad before crossing to freedom in Canada, but this wasn't always the case.
-
While many freedom seekers fled north by land, routes by water were common. Completed in 1825, the Erie Canal connected the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes. The 360 mile long canal provided quick access along the Underground Railroad to the Niagara Region, and the goal of crossing into Canada.
-
Many freedom seekers initially settled along the relatively safe canal area. However, after the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, these settlers were now at risk of bounty hunters finding them and forcing them back into enslavement.
-
Safe houses in places like Lockport served as stations for these brave freedom seekers as they made their way through the Niagara Frontier, and hopefully, freedom across the border.

There's something special about small town USA. And there is plenty of rural charm surrounding Buffalo in Western New York.

Niagara Falls, famed for its roaring waters and breathtaking mist, holds an intriguing tale just a few hundred feet upstream - a tale of adventure, quick thinking, and survival against the odds. The focal point of this incredible story is a rusty relic known as the 'Old Scow', a steel barge that has...
