Very good

I chose the Edgemont neighborhood for Storybook Stays because it serves as the ultimate 'Gateway to Dayton.' As an investor, I was drawn to this area’s unique ability to offer a quiet, residential retreat that is strategically positioned just minutes from the city's most iconic landmarks.
The Gem City Farmhouse sits just 2 miles from the University of Dayton and is a short, 10-minute drive to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. For families visiting for graduation, basketball games, or military assignments, this location eliminates the stress of long commutes.
What truly sold me on Tampa Ave was the 'Silent Zone' feel. It is a peaceful, established neighborhood where you can enjoy the 'Birthplace of Aviation'—being only 1.2 miles from the historic Wright Brothers sites—while having a calm, secure home base to return to each evening.
What makes this property unique
The Gem City Farmhouse is a premier Storybook Stays property designed for travelers who refuse to choose between professional standards and a 'home away from home' feel.
Spanning 1,600 square feet, this fully renovated farmhouse offers significantly more space than the average rental in the area. Our most exciting feature is the Lower-Level Game Hub. While this area is a clean, organized, and traditional unfinished basement, we have transformed it into an entertainment destination:
Capcom Arcade System: Features classic hits like Street Fighter.
Retro Gaming Console: A nostalgic powerhouse with over 5,000 vintage titles.
Multi-Purpose Game Table: An interchangeable 3-in-1 table featuring Foosball, Pool (Billiards), and more.
Cards & Social Zone: A separate table with chairs dedicated to card games and board games.
For our 'Zero Stress' guests, we provide an oversized attached two-car garage. In Dayton, this is a major luxury—it ensures your vehicles stay secure and you never have to scrape ice or snow off a windshield. Outside, both the front and back yards provide a private space for kids to play.
With a 4BR/2BA layout that sleeps 8, we combine modern utility with the Storybook commitment: a meticulously checked, high-performance environment for your entire group.
