Spacious in the woods
Overall a spacious property in a heavily wooded area. But the worst part was how confusing renting this place was using their outside management company, we had to pay using a separate 3rd party site instead of vrbo which made us uncomfortable and felt like spam. They would not send us check in info until we signed a separate online waiver. I’ve rented several VRBO’s before and none have made us do this before. It was extremely confusing and unnecessary.There were some bugs (spiders, beetles) in the house maybe from the rain during our stay. I think the seating in the living rooms need to be improved to accommodate more guests.

Great location, needs some work
The location is great. The proximity to the city and highway is great. The setting in the woods is lovely. We found some odd items, a tissue, a fake eylash, and breakfast protein bar to name a few. The railing overlooking the stairway is dangerous and the bannister is loose. I would not recommend this house for small children. For us, it suited our needs just fine. The listing was exactly as advertised.

Just okay
Talked with the property manager about how our stay could have been better, and they said they are reviewing.Needs a deeper clean - kitchen, especially around the fridge area where water is dispensed, and bathroom sink drains in particular were gunkySome of the instructions were wrong, primarily regarding trash take outSome repairs need to be done, specifically to the stairwell banisters going up and overlooking the stairs; they were wobbly and didn't feel very safeWe only tried the king-size bed, but it as a memory foam mattress, it was so firm and warm that it made sleeping really difficult.

Nice/quiet area
Nice house with lots of space! Check-in was easy. Location is great! Driveway is a little intimidating and only room for 2 cars for sure. Address needs to be more visible but other than that great place to stay! Definitely recommended!

Great Graduation Weekend!
We took my whole family, including my 93 year old mother to Cincinnati for my son's graduation. Having a bedroom on the lower floor was perfect for Mom, the less steps for her, the better!
We enjoyed sitting in the back yard enjoying a drink as we were gathering on Friday night, and there was plenty of room for the whole family.
The property was just as describe. Clean, with a warm and inviting vibe.

Great value!
Splacious and well laid out home. I would definitely stay here again. The only negative is that it is a very steep and narrow driveway. Beautiful neighborhood. Cardinals and deer in backyard. Very roomy house. Very good service from Grand Welcome management.
