✓ 4 private bedrooms | Multiple king beds

The Space:

❤️ What I Love About Doctor’s Retreat — and Why You’ll Love Staying Here

What makes Doctor’s Retreat stand out is the combination of walkability, space, a private hot tub, and beautiful historic character.



You're staying in a true Northern Kentucky neighborhood where you can walk just a few blocks into downtown Bellevue for restaurants, coffee, drinks, shopping, and local favorites—then return to a spacious 4-bedroom home where everyone has room to relax. And after a day exploring Bellevue, Newport, or Cincinnati, there's nothing better than coming home and slipping into the private hot tub.



Inside, the original hardwood floors, rich natural woodwork, stained glass, pocket doors, and architectural details give the house the character of a historic Cincinnati-area home while updated furnishings and amenities provide the comfort you want on vacation.



Whether you're planning a family vacation, couples trip, Cincinnati weekend, wedding weekend, sporting event, concert, business trip, or Northern Kentucky getaway, Doctor's Retreat puts you close to the action without requiring you to stay in the middle of downtown.



📍 Living Room

The inviting living room gives everyone a comfortable place to gather after exploring the city. Settle into the comfortable seating, stream your favorites on the Smart TV, or simply enjoy the home's beautiful original hardwood floors and woodwork. It's a warm, character-filled space that feels distinctly different from a typical hotel or newer apartment.



📍 Private Hot Tub

The private outdoor hot tub is one of the home's biggest perks.

After walking Bellevue, attending a Bengals or Reds game, exploring Cincinnati, or spending the day sightseeing, come home and unwind in the bubbling hot tub.

It's an amenity you'll appreciate year-round—from cool fall evenings and winter Cincinnati getaways to relaxing summer nights.



📍 Kitchen

The bright updated kitchen gives your group everything needed for breakfast before heading out, snacks between adventures, or a relaxed dinner at home.



You'll have:

✓ Stainless-steel appliances

✓ Updated cabinetry

✓ Full-size refrigerator

✓ Range & microwave

✓ Coffee-making essentials

✓ Cookware, dishes & utensils

✓ Plenty of prep space



And when you don't feel like cooking, downtown Bellevue's restaurants are only a few blocks away.



📍 Dining Room

The spacious dining room provides a great gathering place for meals, conversation, games, or celebrating a special occasion.

Original hardwood floors and beautiful natural wood trim preserve the home's historic personality while giving your group plenty of space to spend time together.



📍 4 Private Bedrooms

One of the home's biggest advantages is having 4 actual bedrooms, making it a great choice for families, couples traveling together, and groups who value private sleeping spaces.

The bedroom setup includes multiple king beds, along with additional queen and twin sleeping accommodations.

The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable while retaining the beautiful hardwood floors, original trim, and character found throughout the home.

That combination makes Doctor's Retreat particularly appealing for multi-generational families, wedding groups, couples trips, and larger Cincinnati getaways.



📍 Outdoor Spaces

Enjoy more than just the inside of the house.

✓ Private hot tub

✓ Outdoor deck with seating

✓ Covered front porch

✓ Outdoor gathering space

Start your morning outside with coffee, walk into Bellevue for breakfast or shopping, explore Cincinnati during the afternoon, and finish the night relaxing in your hot tub.



📍 Walk to Downtown Bellevue

One of the Best Features of This Stay



Location is a major reason to choose Doctor's Retreat.



The home is located at 209 6th Avenue in Dayton, Kentucky, immediately beside Bellevue and just a few blocks from its walkable downtown district.



Instead of getting into the car every time you want coffee, breakfast, dinner, drinks, or something to do, you can simply walk into Bellevue.



Explore local restaurants, cafés, bars, boutiques, and neighborhood businesses along the Fairfield Avenue corridor, then walk back to your private home.



For guests comparing Cincinnati-area vacation rentals, that combination of 4 bedrooms + private hot tub + walkability is what makes this property different.



📍 Explore Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky

You're also just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati and convenient to many of the area's biggest destinations:

✓ Downtown Bellevue / Fairfield Avenue

✓ Bellevue Beach Park & Ohio River

✓ Newport on the Levee

✓ Newport Aquarium

✓ Downtown Cincinnati

✓ Great American Ball Park — Cincinnati Reds

✓ Paycor Stadium — Cincinnati Bengals

✓ TQL Stadium — FC Cincinnati

✓ Over-the-Rhine

✓ Findlay Market

✓ Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden

✓ Cincinnati Museum Center

✓ Washington Park

✓ Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati

✓ Ark Encounter

✓ Creation Museum

You get the neighborhood experience of Bellevue and Dayton while remaining close to Newport and downtown Cincinnati's restaurants, nightlife, professional sports, concerts, museums, and attractions.

✓ 4 private bedrooms

✓ Living room

You'll have the home to yourself during your stay.



THE NEIGHBORHOOD

It slept us comfortably. The area around it was not very eye appealing and the parking is on the street and we were lucky to get a parking spot in front of the house as the street was packed with parked cars. The sirens from the emergency vehicles did go off and on throughout the night. The beds were comfy and the inside of the house was great decor for a home built in 1908. Loved the vibe! It was good for our visit to see the STL cardinals play the Cincinnati Reds. It was close the zoo and the Great American ballpark. We were only there for 2 nights but it was close to everything on both sides of the river.

Our family absolutely loved our stay at The Doctor’s House. The bedrooms were spacious & comfortable- perfect accommodations for our 1st vacation with adult kids & spouses. The home itself was beautiful inside - so much character & history! Lots of natural light. We appreciated the number of bathrooms & fantastic dining room table where all of us could share dinner & play games. We enjoyed the restaurants & coffee shops within walking distance, and Newport Aquarium was less than a 10-minute drive. We would be happy to stay here again on another visit to Cincinnati! We will also tell friends about this hidden gem.

We enjoyed our stay at the Doctors House! The house itself was wonderful, nicely furnished, and comfortable. Check in was smooth and amenities were well-described. Location was FANTASTIC! Great little neighborhoods to explore. Only issue was that several of us had skin rash after using the hot tub - there was an ammonia smell and the chemicals seemed off. We were assured that it was checked before we got there, but 3 of us had the same rash. Other than that, we had a lovely stay and would return again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful home in the coolest little neighborhood. Close to attractions and walking distance to foods, taverns and boutique type shops. Safe and friendly area. Our teen boys enjoyed being able to walk around without chaperoning. We travel to Cinci area frequently and would definitely consider booking again.

Small confusion upon arrival at property. There were two lock boxes visible to the side of the door. Neither work.
