What a view!
The view from the front deck is amazing! Watch the river go by! 4 bedrooms and everyone said the beds were comfortable. The house is bright with lots of sunlight coming in. The house shows it's age a bit and could use some new carpeting. We chose this property for the 4 bedrooms. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough seating in the living room for everyone unless you used the uncomfortable, "dining room" like chairs. Overall, the property will work for large families and gatherings for those with average expectations.

Family adventure to the ARK & Creation Museum
The little town of Aurora is a hidden gem. The downtown area is only 5 minutes away and has several restaurants to choose from. Walmart & Kroger are also only a short drive away for anything you might need. This home is located across from a playground and walking/biking trail perfect for our group! We didn't use the bikes available only because we had a quick trip, but what a blessing they are on site for those that can take advantage of them. The items for the younger travelers made things so nice - the pack n play, highchair, plastic plates, bowls, cups, forks and spoons - thank you!

Everything was functional and clean and user friendly. It was so pleasant to stay in a home where we could feel like we were home yet be on vacation. I wished we’d had more time to use the bikes and the close bike path to explore the neighborhood. There’s much to see and do within walking distance. Enjoyed watching all the activity on the Ohio River from the front deck. We truly appreciated our stay.

The house is beautiful and the view of the river outside our door was fantastic. I loved getting up and watching the sun rise over the river every morning! The stair lift was important for my brother to come to visit as he can't climb stairs well.

Great getaway with variety of places to visit all around!
Great historic area, along the river and less than 20 minute ride to Perfect North slopes. We didn’t get to utilize the park and walkway area because of weather but we had a great time and took a short drive to downtown Cincinnati since we were about a 30 mins away. A lot of food options near by, including 3 grocery stores. The only negative would be the narrow entrance hallway to go up into the house but there is a handicap chairlift so if you had an older person staying with you, it would be helpful. We had two families with 5 kids and had a great time!

Very nice home with a fantastic view!
This is a very nice home with a fantastic view of the Ohio River. We were traveling with three adult couples and we chose this home as it included three bathrooms. It also had a nice powder room off the living area. The kitchen was well stocked and had quality appliances. The bathrooms had plenty of towels and toilet paper. We appreciated the Welcome Book of information and the candy. The chairlift is nice for those who would need it. The downstairs bedroom is great for anyone with mobility issues. The front deck facing the river was a favorite place for visiting with our friends. We stayed for two nights and wish we could have stayed longer. The area where the house is located is beautiful.

Perfect house with River view
Wonderful house for our party of 9! Plenty of towels, linens and even roller beds if needed. Complimentary coffee and a very nice view of the river. We visited the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum and this house was in the perfect location for our stay. I highly recommend staying here! Also recommend Snappy Tomato for a close pizza place that delivers, Aurora Diner has a great breakfast. You must try the GOETTA. Never heard of it before but I would have it again! Mick’s Restaurant and Sports Bar has great apps, sandwiches, and wings. And lastly don’t miss going to Flavors ice cream and deli. The upside down banana split was delicious! All 9 of us left happy and full of ice cream.

Good location
Our family was visiting the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter for a few days which is what brought us to this house. There were 9 of us total, 5 adults and 4 kids under 8. The kids all enjoyed the bicycles that were there for use. The deck was enjoyed by us all as we watched the tug boats/barges maneuver the river. It was also a great place to eat as well as the large dining room table inside. The street the house is on is quite narrow, keep this in mind if you have a large to extra large vehicle, however there is plenty of parking and we were able to park our three vehicles comfortably.
