Travel tips
Several restaurants and listed bus stops are within walking distance, while Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport is about 40 km away and Dayton International Airport about 63 km away. The host notes a two-night minimum on weekends and holidays and asks guests to include the total party size when requesting a price. Confirm the sleeping capacity and outdoor setup directly, since guest feedback differs from some listing details.
