About this property

Spacious 1800 sg. ft. and Newly restored 1870s townhome in the heart of historic Mainstrasse Village, walking distance to area restaurants and downtown Cincinnati. Enjoy all the charm of the Village, the Goose Girl fountain a block away, and Goebel Park a few steps away. Plus all that downtown Cincinnati have to offer! Just off the interstate, and very close to the Wade Bailey Bridge (US 25), which offers a super easy route into downtown Cincy. This is a building built in the 1870s with lots of charm, but also lots of stairs, some of them a bit steep; it may not be a good fit for anyone with mobility issues. There is a restaurant on the first floor of the building with great food.

Perfect location

The location was in a perfect spot and it was easy to get in and out of the neighborhood to go to all the places that we wanted to visit. The beds, pillows, and couches were very comfortable. We only had one significant complaint - it was unbearably hot upstairs. We couldn't get the thermostat downstairs under 80 degrees, and upstairs felt even hotter. I see comments from other reviews that we should understand "historic home" to mean that the temperature cannot really be controlled, which is something I would not have assumed. We found a Walmart open late and bought a fan and left it there for the next visitors and it made upstairs a little more bearable, but still very uncomfortable. Late May felt brutally hot so I can't imagine what it is like in August heat or February cold. We are all youngish and can climb stairs easily, but don't stay here if steep, short stairs are a problem for you. Also, the shower door on the downstairs shower is exceptionally narrow and it wouldn't be usable for a larger person. None of us could figure out how to use the shower in the second bathroom, so we all just used the third one because it was the roomiest. The Keurig was replaced with a standard drip coffee pot so we had to go buy coffee grounds since we couldn't use the k cups we brought, so if you're a coffee drinker bring ground coffee instead. I'm not really complaining, just sharing information I wish I had known ahead of time so you can make sure this place will work for you.

Location is outstanding.

Old home that has updates so if you're looking for the Waldorf you should knkw better. But this is charming, clean, as described and the location is fantastic! Convenient to everything, so many things within walking distance right in the neighborhood, including walking down to the riverfront activities. Gettting in and out of Cincinnati is breeze. The only cautionary issue, which we were not affected by at all, might be the older staircases. A little steeper than modern day practices so some with mobility issues may not appreciate the effort needed. But again, its an old building and if you read some of the reviews you should be well informed so thats on you. We had six adults and had planty of room. The balcony/deck was perfect for gathering and chilling. A fantastic stay and experience. Would highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Anthony McIntire

We are from Lexington, Kentucky, but love all that Greater Cincinnati has to offer. We enjoy the Reds, and the Bengals, but also the arts. Cincinnati has a great ballet, a well regarded symphony orchestra, and the second oldest Opera company in the United States.

Why they chose this property

We feel in love with Mainestrasse Village in Covington, the first time we sat foot there. The are few neighborhoods of this vintage in America so well preserved and intact. There's always something to do in the Village, and downtown Covington is happening as well. You can hop on the trolley and go to downtown Cincinnati or Newport without having to drive or park.

What makes this property unique

For starters it''s really large compared to other vacation rentals that sleep 6. If you close the door to the front parlor, you have 3 full bedrooms and 3 full baths. You can enjoy the charm and ambiance of an historic old home in an historic area, without sacrificing modern amenities like updated plumbing, updated fully functional kitchen, and central heat and air. Located in Mainstrasse Village, Covington, an area known for food, drink, and fun, as well as proximity to downtown Cincinnati and all the arts, museums, sports, and more . . . just ask yourself, why not have it all. If the weather is nice you can enjoy the balcony overlooking Gobbels Park, listen to the bell tower, and survey the beautiful beautiful boulevard that is 6th Street.
