The Swing House is Iconic

This is easily one of the best Airbnbs in Cincinnati for the perfect couples getaway. At first glance outside you would never guess that the inside looked like this, but it is a dream come true upon opening the doors!

This place is perfect for 2 people and you can enjoy the 30-foot swing and the basement full of art. If you want to enjoy an art exhibit-turned home then this is a really unique place to stay!
