Amazing views and privacy

John's house is in an ideal location for access to Covington and downtown Cincinnati. The house is immaculate, there are great spaces for hanging out. John has all the amenities you would need. The most amazing part of the house are the views of the Ohio riverfront and downtown Cincinnati skyline. The views at night are amazing. The house is located at the end of the road with no visible neighbors. The house is surrounded by forest (including bamboo forest) providing amazing privacy. You'll feel like you are the only house in the area. We will definitely rent this house again.

Exceptional in every way

The photos in the listing simply do not do the home justice. The views are absolutely incredible (especially at sunrise, from the primary bedroom) and the location is perfect–close to the city, but still, somehow, secluded. John was an extremely gracious host and excellent communicator. I cannot recommend this home (or host) enough!

This house was fantastic! It was clean upon arrival, offers a spacious layout and parking for multiple cars. The location of the house is super convenient to airport and venues in Cincinnati. The host was very responsive and helpful prior to our reservation. Once we arrived, our stay was perfect, and we did not need a thing!Bonus- We were able to enjoy Reds Friday night fireworks from our view!

More than beautiful

This home and views exceeded our expectations! The views were amazing- and that was in summer where trees were in full leaves! (I can’t image the beautiful views in the fall and winter!). This is a must stay! Treat yourself- you will not be disappointed!!

Outstanding!

I don't know where to begin. We were blown away! The house was immaculate. The city views were unbelievable. Photos do not do it justice. The house is elegant and so private. The owners thought of everything. The well stocked gourmet kitchen and very comfy beds were amazing. The house is in a safe and beautiful location. It is a quick and easy drive to the best the area has to offer. Minutes from excellent dining, sporting events, and theater. It was the best VRBO we have ever visited. Thank you.

Girls Get Away

This beautiful property set on hill side of Kentucky offering a beautiful view of down town Cincinnati. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of not having neighbors near. Our questions were answered quickly by John. Definitely would rent again.
