Felt Like Home

Submitted: February 25, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
The house was in great shape when we arrived. We felt like we were at home all weekend. Unlike many other rental locations I’ve stayed at in the past, “Murr Casa” provided guests with a comfortable homey feeling.

The home’s architecture is very unique and beautiful. The house is old, but renovated in all the right places and very spacious. Also, the home’s location provided easy access to downtown Cincinnati, Hyde Park, Xavier University, and other attractions in the area (restaurants, shopping, tourist sites).

I would absolutely recommend this house again - Spacious, comfortable, great location, kid friendly, and many available amenities.

Spacious Enough for Our Group

Submitted: January 2, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
We would recommend this house for groups who need lots of bedrooms (we have 2 adults and 4 teens) and easy access to Cincinnati. We might rent it again ourselves. It met our needs and was very comfortable.

The house was generally good except that the staircase to the house hadn't been shoveled (snow / ice). Also we found a few personal items

The family room downstairs served as the movie theater for our teens. Great to have use of your well stocked kitchen! The bed on the main floor was so comfortable (better than mine at home). Very convenient to getting everywhere we wanted / needed to go, which stretched from the airport to West Chester.

Main floor bathroom did not have towels / washclothes, we had to search for them. Also needed access to a snow shovel during our stay. A small cheap docking station for ipods would be great.

The most enjoyable part of our stay was the peaceful environment watching the deer and squirrels off the back porch. We would highly recommend this home.

We Had So Much Fun

Submitted: November 26, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
We were so busy during the time we were in Kentucky that I did not have a chance to fill out your “questionnaire” but just wanted to tell you that we truly enjoyed our stay and your home was perfect for us! We had room to play and to spread out and to visit!

Great Stay!

5 of 5
Submitted: September 30, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
This home was a wonderful place for my large family (11; 9 children ages 3-18) to relax and enjoy time together!

It is especially child friendly (toys inside and outside - even plastic plates and cups available) while being enjoyable for older children, too (large tv, games, wireless internet). We stay in rental homes for all of our vacations and are often not able to completely relax for entertaining our children. That was not the case here!

And, it is in a great, quiet location. We felt completely safe walking around the neighborhood and to the quaint downtown stores. (The fire department was even welcoming to visitors and gave the children fire hats and let them take pictures on the truck bumper!)

There was nothing we needed that this house did not have! The back porch with the grill and picnic area was especially enjoyable this time of year.

I would recommend this home/location to anyone and would love to stay again if we have a chance to be back in the area.
