IMPORTANT:
1- We provide a swing set for our younger guests' enjoyment. To ensure their safety, we require adult supervision at all times. Please note that injuries are the responsibility of the supervising adult, not the establishment. The swing set is suitable for children aged 3 to 8 years, weighing no more than 100 pounds, to prevent damage to the equipment. Any damages to the swing set will incur a replacement fee. We appreciate your cooperation in following these guidelines to keep a safe and fun environment for everyone.
2- Sweet Retreat is somewhat close to a train track, and while the sound is gentle enough not to disturb, it’s worth noting if absolute silence is crucial for your stay. Please keep this in mind when booking.

Super clean, comfortable beds, home away from home. We didn’t cook there but if you needed to, you have everything you need. Transparent about being a train town but you can barely hear them, so it’s not an issue. We would definitely stay again!

We couldn't have been more pleased with our 3 night stay here. The home has been fully renovated, seemingly very recently, and everything was very clean. Rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated and well laid out. Furnishings are comfortable. There is a large, modern kitchen which is extremely well supplied. The Host is responsive and very well organized. Definitely a 10!

We were there to visit the Ark and my daughter who recently moved to the area. This was the perfect place! It was convenient to everything she wanted us to experience. It really does look like the pictures. It is super clean and well equipped. Everything we needed was already there. All three beds were very comfortable and we all slept well in them. The trains were not an issue for us. We had to listen for them and were not disturbed by them at all.We felt right at home here and will definitely stay again. I could go on and on about this place but everyone else already has and they were telling the truth!These people know how to run a vacation rental! There was not one complaint or suggestion made from our usually picky group.

Absolutely Perfect!

This house matched and exceeded all expectations. The listed photos were extremely accurate to the house itself. It was in the perfect location between Cincinnati, the Ark and the Creation Museum. The neighborhood was very quiet, the train wasn’t loud enough to be an issue. Would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful Stay!

We 4 adults loved our long weekend at this lovely, comfortable house. It is beautifully decorated, thoughtfully equipped, and sparkling clean. Communications with hosts were easy and check-in and out instructions were clear and reasonable. It would also be great for folks with kids, as it includes baby/toddler equipment and a fun swingset in the ample yard. If we return to the area, we'll stay here again!

Amazing, great location and great house

This property is ideally located in a quiet neighborhood but within a few minutes of restaurants and within an hour of several attractions, such as the Ark Encounter, Creation Museum, and Cincinnati. The hosts were quick to respond and so helpful. They did give a heads up that it's close to train tracks, and it is, but the train was not loud enough to be disruptive. Very comfortable furniture and kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed. The house is updated with tasteful decor. We loved the playground outside and outdoor seating area. We would stay here again!

Overall Great Stay

Positives- The host is great & very responsive to all questions and concerns. The house is conveniently located between the ark & creation museum. It also has a huge grocery store & plenty of dining out options near by. The house itself is super clean and beautifully decorated! The house is nicely laid out to give everyone enough space (we had 4 adults and a child). The kitchen is well appointed and has all of the basic necessities & even some extras as well. There are plenty of towels in each bathroom. Comfortable beds and pillows. Plenty of outdoors area for kids to run & play as well as a table and fire pit for the adults to relax around. My son absolutely LOVED seeing the CSX train going back and forth- he was THRILLED. Opportunities- This is definitely a personal opinion, but It would be nice if the linens were washed in unscented detergents - although it is a pleasant fragrance, it can make it a little difficult for anyone with sensitivities (me). The swing set/trampoline outside could use a little upgrade; It seems to be at the end of life. The living room furniture, although beautiful, is not as comfortable for relaxing. We greatly enjoyed our visit. Thank you so much for your hospitality & courtesy.
