The Cincinnati Charm
Summary: The Cincinnati Charm is the name of this cozy home in northeast Cincinnati, and abundant in charm it is!
The Space: Located in the trendy neighborhood of Pleasant Ridge, you’ll be close to all the urban amenities you’ve been dying to experience, while remaining tucked away in suburban serenity. The major highways serving as arteries to and from the city are within easy reach, making any destination possible in the Queen City. A wide variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment is attainable in any direction of the home whether you’re a daytime explorer or a night owl. The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, a must-see attraction and named one of the best zoos in the country, is less than ½ hour drive away. From there you can continue into downtown Cincinnati where you’ll be met with your choice of art and cultural museums, historic landmarks, and the scenic Ohio River waterfront where you can spend all day taking leisurely strolls along the river trails. Cross on over to the Kentucky side for even more things to do, and you can reserve your spot on one of many bourbon and distillery tours this area is famous for. The golfer among you will want to bring your clubs, as you’ll be surrounded by world-class courses beckoning you to a round or 2.
As you step inside, you’ll be immediately taken with the home’s elegance, curated with comfortable furnishings and chic décor. The main living area offers plush sofa and armchair seating, with a mounted smart TV on hand for streaming all of your favorites. Step through the arched doorway into the dining room, where a sophisticated high-top table seats 4, the perfect setting for gathering together for formal meals. You’ll have easy access to the kitchen from here, fully updated and equipped with stainless steel appliances, Keurig coffee maker, and ample cabinet storage stocked with cookware and dining ware that will suit all of your culinary needs. A second sitting area can be found on the enclosed porch, a space you’ll love to relax in while catching up on a good book or simply taking in the surrounding scenery while enjoying your morning cup of coffee.

Just east of downtown destinations like the Bengals Stadium, Riverfront Park, and Great American Ballpark, The Cincinnati Cottage is within easy reach of some of Cincinnati’s most popular attractions. Beyond this area, there’s still so much more to explore. From Cincinnati’s street art revolution which has transformed neighborhoods with 180+ public murals, to its serious beer culture, revitalized historic neighborhoods with trendy shopping and dining like Over-the-Rhine, and authentic Art Deco architecture and design, this culturally diverse city is a can’t-miss destination.
Over on the Kentucky side of the river, you’re in prime Bourbon Trail territory. Check out distilleries and sipping points where you can sample Northern Kentucky’s bourbon, often paired with traditional southern foods.

Great place fir the value. The family went to Ark Encounter, wake Nation, Freedom Center, and Cincinnati Museum as different day trips from this house. Bare bones accommodations, but it is all we needed.

Not home, but served its purpose
To be fair, my expectations were probably higher than they should have been. Upon arrival, there were a couple of cop cars on the road at another residence, so that made me feel uneasy about the neighborhood but at the same time, comfortable knowing that they responded to whatever situation was happening. The storm door was wide open when we pulled in and wouldn't close, though they were willing to fix it immediately if we felt it was necessary.

Nice property
The property was nice. It was pretty much exactly as described in the listing. The only reason we couldn’t give it 5 stars were there were a few things we’ve become accustomed to being available at rentals (games, hairdryer, furniture to unpack into, extra blanket for the chilly nights) that weren’t available. But the property was more than adequate for our needs.

Quiet neighborhood
Overall we had a good stay.
There were a few items that i feel would have made cooking at the house a bit easier. There were no sharp knives, pizza cutter, scissors, or containers to keep leftovers/cut up fruit available. Everything else was sufficient.
The toilets and sinks are very slow to drain, just fyi.
The beds were ok but not something i would want to sleep in for more than a couple nights. A small dresser in the bedrooms would have been very helpful so we didnt have to live out of the suitcases or stavk everything on the desk that was in the room.
Neighborhood was very quiet and calm since it is on a dead end road.
We had a problem with the locks during our stay and they were very quick to get them fixed.
Enjoyed our stay as a family of 7

Bare bones property
The property was in a nice residential area on a dead-end street with available street parking. The driveway was very narrow. The updated kitchen was nice but lacked spices and knives for food prep. We made do. There also were very few baking pans/dishes. We had to cook our salmon on a cast iron pizza pan and then cook pizza on it the next day.
Plenty of towels, bathrooms were nice. Stairs up to the house were challenging with luggage as were the stairs to the upstairs. Narrow and steep with the last step on both a little more so.
There wasn’t a way to watch live tv but the smart television had several apps loaded and wifi was available.
We were not in the house all that much as we were working from 7:00am to as late as 10:00pm.
I will recommend using a bath mat in the upstairs shower as the tub was very slick.
