Convenient to Attractions
Close to the ark encounter and not too far from the Cincinnati Zoo. Place was very clean. The bed was a little too firm for my liking. I would also recommend to the owner a blackout curtain is needed at the end of the house where the streetlight is.

Great little house!
Fantastic house located rite in the middle of all 3 of our destinations ( the creation museum, the ark encounter, and the Newport aquarium. House had everything we needed to cook dinner and breakfast a couple days. The beds could definitely use upgrades they were SUPER firm with very flat pillows. Otherwise it was a great stay!

Summer travel
We stopped here on our way to the mid west, and spent a day at the ark! We had a small issue with the a/c on the hot day when we arrived, but the owner was quick to get it fixed and amazingly enough we had a cool house to spend the night at. Owner is very caring and accomidating!
