About this property
Big riverfront house near beach access, CVG, & downtown
Escape to our newly-remodeled prohibition-era speakeasy, now a modern and clean vacation rental! This spacious property comfortably sleeps 18 and is located on 2 acres of riverfront land, situated next to a state bird sanctuary that features a sandy beach. Enjoy stunning sunsets by the fire pit and hours of entertainment in the rustic barn with a half-pipe, ping pong table, and stage. The River House is conveniently located just 28 minutes from Perfect North Slopes, 12 minutes from downtown, 27 minutes from the Creation Museum, 38 minutes from the Ark Encounter, and 10 minutes from CVG airport.
Inside the home, guests can relax and unwind in the beautifully decorated living areas. Take in the panoramic river views from the wrap-around porch, or enjoy a movie night in the cozy living room. The property also features four immaculate bedrooms, including a bunk room that sleeps ten, three brand-new bathrooms, and a modern kitchen.
The River House boasts a rustic barn with a half-pipe, ping pong table, and stage for entertainment. Please note that a waiver must be signed if the barn is used. If you would rather not have your kids enticed by the barn, you can leave it locked for your whole stay.
There is a state-protected bird sanctuary adjacent to the property. Stroll through the sanctuary's shady path to visit a riverfront beach owned by the state of Kentucky. Please note that the Ohio River is an active commercial waterway. Every day the river deposits some "gifts" (aka- debris and often trash) and removes others. As this is state-owned land, we do not patrol or clean the beach or woods; we are not responsible for its maintenance or for any activity on that property.
Guests will have access to the entire house, the parking area, the yard, the fire pit, and the barn.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Donna Baer

Hi, I'm Donna. My husband and I moved from Chicago to Cincinnati in 2020 to be closer to our grandchildren. In Chicago, we raised ten kids in a stately 19th-century home. When the kids moved out, we hosted vacation rentals in our home. I loved it! I loved preparing for guests and attending to all the small details that make a stay enjoyable. I loved chatting with guests online before their trips. And I loved greeting guests as their vacations began. When we moved to Cincinnati I really missed being a host. Which is why I was thrilled when my daughter offered me the opportunity to host THIS vacation rental! It's such a beautiful place, and I know whoever books it will have a magical time.
Why they chose this property
The River House has it all: secluded next to a bird sanctuary on the banks of the Ohio River with access to a private sandy beach, you feel like you're a million miles from civilization. Yet hop in your car, and in under 15 minutes you can be at a Reds' game. Or a fabulous museum. Or at a traveling Broadway show. Or a 5-star restaurant. The house sleeps 18, so it is big enough to host family reunions or other large gatherings. And there's plenty of free parking.
What makes this property unique
The party barn! A rustic renovated barn that features a ping-pong table, a stage, and a half-pipe. There's also a fire pit, and of course, the private sandy beach. You'll love it here!
