About this property

Tranquil In-Town Garden Carriage House, No pet fee

Lovely, secluded 700 sq foot carriage house w/private gated entrance in tranquil setting welcomes you— pets (no fee for 2)! Bubbling fountain, vegetable and flower gardens, and a place to cookout in fenced yard. Home-away-from-home has every amenity, including queen-sized bed with a 14" thick mattress, down quilt and pillows, kitchen, washer-dryer and spa shower/bathroom. Spacious. Two car enclosed garage. WIFI and almost every streaming service available.

Note that this carriage house has been extensively reviewed with more than 140 reviews between VRBO and Airbnb, where I am a superhost with a near 5.0 rating—best rating in Cincinnati! Check out the reviews: tinyurl.com/w3cvdbha

The carriage house is fronted by an enclosed garden that springs to life each March. Bubbling fountain and vegetable patch. The carriage house has been entirely renovated with wood-beam 11-foot ceiling, lovely exposed brick walls, spa bathroom and new kitchen. Luxurious bed with down pillows and quilt). Large daily living space.

Like the 1880s classic Cincinnati mansion that it sits behind, the main house and separate carriage house are a preservationist dream. The property is on quiet, shady "Millionaire's Row" in the Dayton St. Historic District. 3 minute drive/15 minute walk from historic Findlay Market with its indoor and outdoor food stands and restaurants. Dozens of restaurants and boutique shopping are within minutes in Over-the-Rhine. 5 minutes to the opera, symphony, Shakespeare Theatre and Washington Park, which has outdoor events almost every day and a great pet park — and has underground parking making it very accessible. Theatre is minutes away. 10 minutes to Kroger grocery store and downtown where the baseball and football stadiums are located. New soccer stadium is 5 minutes away by car, 15 minute walk. University of Cincinnati is a 10 minute drive.

Guest access: You enter the house via a private locked gate to the side of main house front entrance ... path takes you along the house then through the tranquil back yard to the carriage house door. There is also a separate entrance via the 2-car garage in the back—underneath the carriage house (accessible via an alley street behind the main house), up a few stairs into the garden and to your secure, private entrance door.

Animal limit: 2 pets, with no pet fee charge! No pet supplies provided, so bring what you need to attend to them. With more than two pets, we find the hair really piles up and requires extra cleaning and maintenance.. Would consider additional pet/s based on number and size. The pet fee for two pets is $40 for the first two nights and another $35 for longer stays up to one week. For longer stays, the fee is negotiable.

Early arrival or late checkout: If you desire an early check in (as early as noon) or late check out (as late as 5p), just let me know and we will make it happen if there are no conflicts.

We had an issue checking in but the owner, Jon was promptly responsive and helped us through everything and resolved our issue! The property was amazing and the backyard was gorgeous and very peaceful. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was a huge bonus and we loved the bathroom. Amazing place to stay for a few days!

Fabulous Place to Relax and Refresh!

My husband and I stayed at the carriage house with our 3 cats for 3 nights and had an absolutely wonderful time. The garden was absolutely beautiful and the carriage house was very charming and comfortable. We had the opportunity to meet Jon in the garden, and he was really great! He has two adorable little dogs that are sweet as can be. He is a very kind and accommodating host. I would recommend the carriage house to anyone looking for a nice, comfortable place to stay. We felt very safe and had no issues during our time.

Beautiful garden and excellent location for exploring Cincinnati

The carriage house on Dayton Street is a great place to stay while visiting Cincinnati. Over The Rhine (OTR) with all its sights and shops is a short walk away. There is an excellent coffee shop nearby. The host provisions the apartment with plenty of coffee and tea, towels and other supplies. The garden is a delight with tropical plants that the host grows from seed each year. The entry is well-lit and secure.

About the host

Hosted by Jon Entine

Host profile image
I've owned the classic 1880s home in the Dayton St. Historical District for 3 years, and love it here. Great neighbors who work and play together to promote the neighborhood. Explodes with positive energy. We are so near to the heartbeat of Cincinnati.

Why they chose this property

I've spent 3-years developing the very private and tranquil carriage house, with special care focused on the beautiful garden that comes to life in the spring. It's been a labor of love, and I hope you fully enjoy this restful home-away-from-home.

What makes this property unique

There is no other property like this in Cincinnati: an inner-city garden oasis. The carriage house has a new kitchen and spa bathroom and is uber clean and quaint with high ceilings. Privacy, peace and quiet are our calling cards! Plus it's within 5 minutes of the heart beat of the city.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
