About this property

Walk to Bengals and Reds and downtown Cincy. Easy Drive to Ark, walk to eat.

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.

Fun quaint place

It was a little different to get to, but we figured it out pretty quickly. It was nice to see all of the charm this place had to offer. It was clean and we were able to find the items we needed to cook, clean up and sleep and bathe. I would recommend this listing to anyone...and I would stay there again if I am out that way!!!

Lovely 3 bedroom 3 bath with room for all

This was the second part of our summer vacation. We stayed here two nights, went to a Reds game and the Cincinnati Museum Center. We ate at the restaurant downstairs and had ice cream at the place next door. Both were good. The house was spacious and worked great for us. I think walking to the stadium would have been a bit much at 1.5 miles with two kids in 90 temps but I guess it would work for some! There is some active nightlife late at night in the area but we felt more than safe in our house and had all we needed. The house was clean and all instructions were great!

Visiting for Reds games

It was a great place to stay! We were in town to catch a three-game series at GABP. Took the trolley to the stadium. The pick-up point less than a block away and only cost 2.00. The unit was great. We will stay there again!

Didn’t meet expectations

Unfortunately this property didn’t meet our expectations. While house was large it was shabbily decorated and a bit creepy. You have to walk down a side ally as it sits above a Mexican restaurant. Front porch had screen door which was slashed up. The stairs inside are narrow and steep. We stayed one night and left for a hotel the next day. Owner came across defensive when feedback was given.

About the host

Hosted by Anthony McIntire

Host profile image
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.
