An older but recently remodeled home in a very nice area of Portsmouth. Conveniently located right off Rt. 23 and minutes to everything Portsmouth has to offer. Easy access to hospitals, grocery stores, restaurants, and Shawnee State University.

We can sleep two guests comfortably in the main bedroom on a queen size bed.

Our cottage has a recently remodeled kitchen, living room, dining room, newly refinished hardwood floors, and newly refinished bathroom.

We offer a fully furnished kitchen ready for the “chef” to take over! So there's no need to bring any of your own kitchen utensils. Wi-Fi is provided. We leave extra blankets to make sure you are cozy in the winter.

We provide many consumables to our guests such as:
body wash, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, hand sanitizer, dish soap, and a dish pod. We also provide a Kuerig machine and a starter sampling of k-cups.

For the kids, we offer an infant pack ‘n play with sheets, kids activity books, crayons, and a selection of reading books and board games/playing cards.



The upstairs of the home is vacant but not accessible. Guests will have full access of the downstairs living area.

The neighborhood is very friendly and helpful if needed. It consists of retirees, middle aged couples and young families with children.

There is ample parking both on the street and the private driveway next to the house. The area around 29th Street is family friendly & very safe. From 29th Street east towards Kendall Ave. and Cole’s Blvd. is one of the most popular areas for walking and jogging. If you’re looking for a more challenging walk, Sunrise Ave., just off of Cole’s Blvd. is the place for you! Leaving the property heading west on 29th Street is Wendy’s and CVS Pharmacy.

Please feel free to use the back patio/screened-in porch and any of the outdoor space. We ask that you do not try to access the garage, second floor, or basement.

Please make sure all doors are locked whenever you aren't present at the home.

GARBAGE: Place all trash in the large green can near the garage during the week. It’s not necessary to empty trash on checkout morning, we’ll take care of that! We will come Monday evening to roll the garbage can to the curb for Tuesday morning pickup.
