Trailside 4BR 2BA Cottage • Fenced Yard • Near Hyde Park

Cozy, clean, and perfectly located on the Wasson Way Trail, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath 1930s cottage offers comfort, character, and convenience just minutes from Hyde Park, Oakley, and downtown Cincinnati. Guests love the fenced backyard for pups, the warm décor with authentic touches throughout, and the TVs in every bedroom for relaxing at the end of the day.

Inside, the cottage features a welcoming living room, dedicated dining area, and a fully stocked kitchen designed to make meal prep easy during your stay. The main level includes two bedrooms and a full bath, while two additional bedrooms are located upstairs. A second bathroom and laundry area are located in the basement. With four comfortable queen beds, plenty of linens, and thoughtfully arranged sleeping spaces, the home works beautifully for families, groups, and travelers visiting for graduations, weddings, medical appointments, or weekend getaways.

The cottage sits directly on the Wasson Way Trail, giving guests instant access for walking, running, or biking. Ault Park, Hyde Park Square, and local breweries and restaurants are all just minutes away. Despite being in a peaceful residential pocket, the home is a short drive to major highways, making it easy to reach downtown Cincinnati, the airport, and surrounding attractions.

Please note that the cottage was built in the 1930s and includes multiple sets of stairs, including narrow original staircase access to the upper level. The home sits on a hill, so guests will climb steps from the driveway to the porch, and from the garage to the main level. Guests who prefer step-free access may find the layout challenging.

A train line runs in front of the property and trains do sound their horn when passing. Typical guests take this in stride, and the home is equipped with plaster walls, white noise machines, and box fans in the bedrooms to help soften the sound.

The fenced backyard offers a safe area for dogs to enjoy. Please be aware that there is a neighbor dog next door; if your dog is fence-reactive, please take this into consideration.

With warm hospitality, thoughtful amenities, and a location that balances quiet living with quick access to everything Cincinnati has to offer, Old Red Bank Cottage is a comfortable and reliable home base for your stay.

Great place to stay

Owner thought of everything when setting up this place for rental. Great place to stay and the beagle next door was so cute! Owner answers you right away and is very very friendly. I will definitely be staying here again. If you plan on visiting Cincinnati this should be the only place for you to stay unless of course it's booked

The house had everything you could possibly need or want plus more. The property was clean inside and out and very comfortable. I would recommend this property to anyone staying in the Cincinnati area! The owners communicated clearly in the ad for the property but also provided a book full of information to help! We had an excellent time!

Great cottage in a great location.

Stayed for several nights while visiting family in Cincy. The location for us could not have been more convenient and easy to find. Bonus was that it is right on a bike trail. The cottage is well appointed, very clean and had everything we needed. Highly recommended.

Wonderful stay!

Perfect house for a family of six. House was clean and stocked with all essentials. There were games for the little ones, board games, video games and a fire pit for the older ones. The backyard was big enough to play games with the kids. Whole family enjoyed the stay. The host, Jesse, was very responsive and helpful. If ever in the area, would love to stay again.

Quiet & Cozy

We came to stay with our family for the weekend for a wedding. The home was clean and very quiet. Our sons and son in law loved the Xbox that was there. Was very close to anything you could possibly need. We even walked to the Walmart one morning just to get some exercise. Would for sure stay again if in the area. ☺️

Weekend Trip

We loved this house for our weekend trip! The house was very clean and absolutely everything we needed was available. There is a train but it runs only a few times a day (never at night that we noticed), the noise isn’t bad at all, and there is a dinner train that came by once which our kids loved seeing. The house is in such a great location, we were very close to every attraction we came for, as well as, so many restaurants. The host was so kind and helpful. We would highly recommend anyone looking for a rental in this area to choose this property!

Quiet cottage nights after busy city day

We stayed Friday-Sunday for our kids end of Christmas break and since we have 3 teens this house was perfect for at the end of the day everyone having their own space! Communication from the owners was great, not that we needed anything because it seems they thought of everything! I loved the little extras that were included should we have forgotten something and the binder book upon checkin was great for all the tips and info about the house. I especially loved the extra note that the brown blankets were fresh because I’m def a paranoid germaphobe who does not cuddle up to hotel blankets LOL. The neighbors were friendly, and we were just quick 15-20mins from downtown! Would def recommend and/or stay again!

Amazing place

This was by far the best rental home we have ever stayed in. The house was really a home away from home! It was immaculate, comfortable, everything we could have wanted in a place to stay while traveling. An amazing location! The longest it took us to get to either shopping, eating, or entertainment was about 15 minutes. Everything was so close. Jesse, the host, also had lots of small, but meaningful touches that just made the experience the best we have ever had. We absolutely hope to stay here again when visiting Cincinnati! We were traveling with our dog, who also enjoyed the trip. It had a great place to walk her in the mornings and evenings and a great fenced in back yard. And again, all of the little touches for our pet baby! Thanks Jesse! Hope to see you next year!

Elevated hotel-like experience

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jesse's home. The home was clean and tidy, and looked exactly as the listing photos. The beds were super comfortable, and sheets were fresh and white! I had no trouble falling asleep every night. This home had everything we really were needing (hairdryer, shampoo/conditioner, makeup remover, welcome drinks!, local food/activity suggestions), including a place for my toddler to sleep and even a giant firetruck for him to play with! How did she know that would be his absolute favorite toy of the weekend?! I would absolutely stay here again, and would choose this VRBO over a hotel room, as it offered the same amentities as a hotel, but with much more room for my husband, parents, and toddler's visit to Cincinnati.

We loved it! Very clean and comfy! She even had box fans in the rooms which was a plus for me. We always travel with a fan for the noise so we can sleep. We made the trip to visit the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. It felt like we were at home. If we are ever back in the area we will definitely be staying here.
