This FAVORITE property of Red Whale Rentals is the combination of a large, professionally designed private two-story home and an attached oasis-like and equally beautiful private one bedroom cottage.

Very stylish House - lots of beds!
We had a great time in Cincinnati and loved the house. Very cute decor and the location was super fun, the neighborhood is very walkable and charming. The pool (a city run pool) was not walking distance in my mind, it’s about a 4 minute drive but would have been a tough walk with a 4 year old, especially since it was so hot. But a really fun neighborhood pool. Lots of beds and extra linens and pillows which I really appreciated and great AC which we were thankful for, it was hot when we visited. The deck is super pleasant (the kids adored the hammock chairs) and there were fireworks twice that were so fun to watch . The river views aren’t super visible from the house, lots of trees block the views but you can walk a few feet out the front door to the overlook by the church across the street and have the best views in the city. If I have any quibbles I think they could use more stools at the kitchen table, everyone wanted to hang out there and only 2 seats wasn’t enough. Overall a very fun house, the checkout rules were very reasonable and we had fun!

Bachelorette Party
This property is luxurious and breathtaking. The pictures don’t do the property justice. The views are incredible of the Ohio River and downtown Cincinnati. This was the perfect space to gather and hang out. The host was very communicative and accommodating. If we gather in Cincinnati again, we will definitely rebook this property. We had a wonderful time and stay.

What A View
Staying next to historic Immaculata Church was quite stunning. They are celebrating 150 years of Cincinnati history. To view it at night and in the morning was awesome. The house was convenient and cozy. Parking is a challenge because the street is one way and narrow. But the charm of Mt. Adams cannot be beat! Once a working Irish and Italian neighborhood, it has morphed into a sophisticated area of homes, shops and bars. Don’t miss the Blind Lemon! It’s a unique bar! It was great to be home for a week.

Fantastic Mt Adams Get Away
As long time residents of Cincy returning for a wedding weekend, we couldn't believe our luck at finding such a great spot for our party of 5. Great layout, calm interiors, plenty of space to be together or alone. And you can't beat the location - always something going on in Mt Adams, plus a quick run down the hill and you are squarely in river-front heaven (we love all the activities the river front offers).
