Such an amazing house!

I had my bachelorette party here and it was the perfect house & location for it! The house is gorgeous, spacious, and had more than enough amenities to make any event here amazing. The decorations were beautiful and the artwork was very impressive! Preston was very detailed, responsive, and kind! Thanks for the perfect place for my Bach party!

Great Spot for Large group

My wife and I have 12 kids and this space worked great for us! Plenty on beds and living areas. Having 2 available living spaces worked great with younger and older kids. The kitchens are great with all needed amenities and our host was very responsive. Cool area near Eden Park and beautiful overlook area.

A Snowy Weekend

My friends and I from all over were able to come together for a fun-filled weekend in Cincinnati! The house was absolutely beautiful, and even though everything was covered in snow and ice, our gracious host made sure we had everything we needed. Thank you for the memories!

Awesome!

I have stayed at a lot of VRBO and this was one the top 3-4 by far. The photos were on point. Preston was great to work with! We actually rented two of his houses during our stay. It was perfect for our team and staff because we each had a house. There were a few minor things, like no AC or running out of TP, but we would 10000% stay there again. Like other mentioned, the stairs are very steep. And it wasn’t until the day we left that I realized he had painted all the artwork. Great location - close to downtown. Book it!!

Spotless!

This was one of the most well decorated, clean locations I have ever stayed at. Preston chose quality appliances, decorations (I think he was the artist for the paintings that were beautiful!), furniture, and renovations. There was actually a very nice amount of dishes, glasses, and silverware which we don't normally find in rentals. He was very responsive and as helpful as he could possibly be. The neighborhood is on the border of a not so nice section of town which was concerning. The most disappointing part of the stay were the stairs. There are two very steep staircases in the main house that make carrying groceries and luggage challenging. We were hoping for more living/hanging out space since you could sleep at least 10 people in the main house. The 4 steps leading into the single apartment were also steep which made it challenging for my mother-in-law to get into and out of. There are no handicap helpers, such as bars to assist getting into and out of the showers. I never would have thought of this if my mother-in-law was not with us. The internet was spotty, but from what we understand that has nothing to do with Preston and the residence but has everything to do with the area of town. The grill was fabulous, the picnic tables were great. Overall, we had a great time in Cincy thanks to our stay in Preston's house.

Wonderful

Preston was amazing to work with! He was always prompt to answer any questions. The house was amazing, it was everything our group needed and expected. It was literally a home away from home! If I ever come back to the area I would book again!
