The only issue that we had was there was not much around us as far as food. It was a little community that was right on the river, which was nice. We enjoyed being together in this home and it was very quaint with everything you need. I highly recommend it. Just make sure you take snacks and things that you can fix in the home if you don't have time to go about 20 to 30 minutes to get something else.
Property was clean and comfortable. From the original pictures we saw we thought the property was in the country. It was right in the middle of town. It was quiet and fit our needs for a short stay.
We went to visit the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. Location was perfect, listing was accurate, home was very well appointed. Had everything we needed! Will stay again!
Property was fine and as described. It was a short hike to the river and close to attractions we visited. Neighbors were noisy (mufflerless cars they liked to rev up after hours).
The house is very close to the Creation Museum and about an hour from the Ark. The house is very clean, comfortable, and well equipped. My husband and I stayed with 2 other coupl
Great little town to stay in to get away...but plenty close enough to area attractions. We went to the Creation Museum, Ark Encounter, Cincinnati Zoo, and Louisville. Great town to stay in, friendly people, nice park for the kids. House was in beautiful condition. Thank you!
Our family consists of adult children down to 10 yr. old. All 10 of us stayed very comfortably at the house. The kids utilized the yard for football and play. The neighborhood cats were a treat for the kids as well....coming over for a pet whenever they were out. The house was so clean and well stocked of things you would need for a stay away from home. We will definitely stay again if ever in the area and we will recommend to any friends or family who go to that area.
House was clean and well stocked. Everything went smooth and we had no issues. The hosts responded quickly when we sent messages. Would definitely stay here again.
Very clean, organized, and fully stocked with all necessities you might need. Communication with the owners was a breeze and they are very attentive to their renters. More than enough room for families as well as extended families too. Overall a great experience!
This property couldn’t have been anymore perfect for our family. We were traveling to kings island and Cincinnati for a long weekend get away. We consisted of 4 adults and 6 kids. The kids all had their own bedroom and the adults had their own bedrooms. The house was clean and exactly as it was presented. We all had a great time!
Great place to stay to visit Creation Museum and Ark Encounter
The Rivertown Ranch was a perfect choice for our vacation with family. Everything about it was just as advertised, with plenty of comfortable sleeping space for the four adults and four children in our group. The kitchen was stocked with absolutely everything we needed to make meals and the table was large enough for all of us, including a nice outside table. Two full bathrooms were separated from the bedrooms. Everything was clean and well organized. We enjoyed the drive on the beautiful country roads and the convenience to both our destinations. Communication with the hosts was excellent. Highly recommend.
We enjoyed our stay at the sweet house! It was clean, and had the supplies we needed to have dinners there! Plenty of space for all of us to have our own bed and also some fun movies and games, as well as puzzles for everyone to enjoy! We would recommend this place for sure!!

About the host
Hosted by Dan Hitzfield
My husband and I live in Petersburg with our two children and choose to make this quiet little town our home. This is a great advantage to our customers because we are so close. We can easily help you out with any of your needs and answer any questions. We reside in the “Berkshire house” which was constructed around 1928 from the Brick of the old distillery building. Dan’s family has lived in Petersburg for 5 generations, so needless to say we are vested in our community. When traveling ourselves, we often stay in a vacation rental. We find this to be the best and most affordable choice for our family and we think that you will too. So we hope to welcome you to our community. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.
