My stay was great. Check in was easy, the house was *super* cute and perfect for a weekend away. Everything was clean and it was furnished nicely. Location was good for what we needed. Would stay here again any time.
We (two adults, two teens) stayed at the Ridge Retreat for an extended weekend while in town for a Reds game. The house was spotlessly clean and very cute - also truer to the photos than many I've seen. The beds were actually comfortable and the check-in/check-out process could not have been easier. The hosts were very responsive and great to work with. One slight issue I had was that the first floor shower floor was quite slippery but that did not detract from our stay. Would recommend!
Wow!
We have thoroughly enjoyed staying at The Ridge Retreat. We were in town for our nephew’s wedding and also a family reunion at another nephew’s house in Oxford. First time in Ohio for us (other than driving thru) and we’re glad we came! So many thoughtful extras in this newly renovated home. 6 adults in our family were quite comfortable making this our home away from home for a wonderful whirlwind weekend! All the beds are very comfortable and bath towels are quality and plentiful! Well stocked kitchen for cooking meals (Kroger Supermarket and Aldi’s are within a couple of miles). Great gas BBQ and outdoor dining set on the deck overlooking a lovely grass area. The host is super communicative and has provided lots of info for places to visit or dine at in the area. There is a foosball table, corn hole, and board games to play. We highly recommend staying here and would stay again when in the area. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We stayed at the Ridge Retreat for a weekend trip to Cincy to visit with old friends.
The pictures are very accurate and the home is absolutely adorable. It’s cozy and comfortable. The house was clean and bright. We loved the open floorplan of the first floor. All the bedrooms have a cute theme to them that just adds to the character. Bathrooms are gorgeous, well-lit. Great to have two full baths. The backyard and deck were a nice surprise. Good size and nice future to enjoy some sunshine.
The location of the house has great proximity to most East Side spots. It is on a busier street if you’re unfamiliar with the area, but that meant for plentiful parking and easy access to activities.
Hosts were very communicative and kind, which I have found to be rare these days when booking properties.
Would definitely stay again for our next trip to Cincinnati.
We loved our getaway in The Ridge Retreat! The home is beautiful and true to the pictures. We felt very comfortable with our family of 5 sharing the space along with our 2 dogs. The backyard was perfect for playing cornhole and letting the dogs run around. We also loved being close to some great restaurants and only a short drive from the Cincinnati Zoo and Kings Island. Some highlights of the home included the very comfortable beds, newly updated furnishings, open floor plan with a nice kitchen, plenty of seating, a fun foosball table, and thoughtful personal touches. Everything was well-stocked and thought out for the guests. We appreciated the quick communication and the chance to stay in such a nice home for our family vacation. Highly recommend!
Place was immaculate & matched pics. Had all usual amenities .. and then some. Well-stocked kitchen with dinnerware & silverware .. and then some. We had a great time!
