About this property

Dayton Air Force Museum Getaway! Close to WPAFB, Downtown, Wright State

The best place to stay when visiting the National Air Force Museum. It's open year round, entrance is free, and you even can walk to the museum if you want :)

You will also be very close to all the Wright Patterson AFB entrances and only 5 minutes to Wright State University, only 10 minutes to the Nutter Center (for watching various shows) and Downtown Dayton - including the Oregon District, University of Dayton, Schuster Center, Miami Valley Hospital, and others. Perfect for vacation or work!

The space:

This cozy home has two bedrooms with queen beds that can sleep 2 (or 3 kids if needed) and an extra rollaway bed if you need it. The living room has a TV with local channels and Netflix and streaming TV channels via SlingTV... the other bedroom also has their own TV also with Netflix if you'd like to watch your own shows.

A DVD player and lots of DVDs are also available for your entertainment, as are various books, comic books and board games for the kids.

If you are an outdoors person, a bike lane is right in front of the home. This will connect you to the major bike lanes in town and even to other cities like Tipp City, Troy, and even to Cincinnati if you wish! (see for more information)

Areas of the home:

You have full access to the Kitchen (full size fridge, stove, microwave, coffeemakers, toaster, utensils) to save money by cooking your own food, as well as laundry facilities (washer and dryer in basement) if needed.

You will have a driveway to park your car in and extra parking spaces if needed at the front of the property.

Other information:

The back of the house is close to a railroad track (there is another house between us and the track) and you can sometimes hear a train coming through (sounds like rain pouring) for about 1-2 minutes .. about 3-4 times a day. Not loud enough to really disturb you, especially if watching TV. It's a pretty good experience to see the train as it goes by though.. you don't see that often nowadays.

No parties please. This is a quiet neighborhood and we'd like to keep it that way.

Disclaimer: For your safety and the safety of others, surveillance cameras are installed outdoors at this property. They are only pointed to the public areas that include the driveway, front porch, and back door areas.

Finally, we have have prepared this home as best as we can but if you find something that needs improving, please contact us and we'll do our best to fix or rectify the issue. Thanks!

Cute and clean
Very clean but older than the pictures indicated. Appreciated the budget stay though for the one night and convenient location to the Air Force museum!! If you're a coffee drinker bring your own things. Also be sure to check out the area to be sure you feel comfortable with the location 👍 Easy check in and out and great communication with the owners.

Prefect Location, Nice Overall
Older home in a quiet neighborhood. Very centrally located for our trip to visit family. Enjoyed hving the AFB & museum across the street. Easy to find other necessities (gas, groceries, restaurants) within a short drive. The home was nice. Plenty of room for 3 adults and one child. Cute porch for morning coffee. Large kitchen. Our son enjoyed the ping pong table in the basement. Yard was nice, larger than expected (wish we would have brought lawn games like bocce ball or cornhole). Bike trails easily accessed. Owner was very nice, communicative & flexible. The house wasn't spotless, but overall it exceeded our expectations. No complaints & will definitely look at staying here again on our next trip to the area. Thank you!

Solid option for a short stay, with legendary Cafe nearby
Great value and also convenient also to a great, great cafe nearby too - Pettibone Coffee. Turns out Dayton's cafe scene is in it's 4th wave. Only thing I'd ask is that perhaps the cooking pots and pans were refreshed for those who want to cook. Overall would recommend and would happily revisit. Thanks!

About the host

Host profile image
We have lived in Dayton for the past 12 years and can help you with your plans when you stay with us. We also love to travel around the world in Vacation homes like this.

Why they chose this property

This is the closest you can get to the Internationally known Dayton Air Force Museum - you can literally walk to the museum from the home. The neighborhood is very safe and is bounded by the Wright Patterson Air Force Base and the Eastwood Metropark with a beautiful lake that you can walk or bike to.

It is also very close to Downtown Dayton (10 minutes or less) with all the nightlife, things to do, and attractions.
