About this property

Grab a latte at the coffee shop, then walk a block to the floodwall where you'll find 2000 feet of murals showcasing the history of Portsmouth. After that, walk back up 2nd Street and check out the antique shops and local restaurants.

Portsmouth, Ohio is the childhood home of Roy Rogers. This cowboy themed space is a great place for you to call home during your visit to Portsmouth and the Historic Boneyfiddle District. The rustic finishes give an old west feel and the location provides convenient access to much of what the area has to offer.

You will be given a lockbox code for accessing the apartment during your stay. We live in the area and are available if needed but this unit is separate from our personal residence.

Rustic but comfortable

The property is a little more rustic than I thought it would be but it is clean and conformable. Could have used a few more amenities like paper towels, tissues, and kitchen items. Dishes are china and I was afraid to use them in the microwave.

What A Great Stay!

My travel partner has never stayed in a Vrbo so this was my surprise for him. There are specifically two reasons I chose this place: 1) When I read why it was decorated in a rustic theme, I knew it was perfect bc my friend loved cowboys and Indians when he was a little boy. 2) No driving for two days! We were IN the historic district and could walk everywhere. We mainly came to shop for antiques. The apartment was quiet, comfortable, and we felt completely safe. Street parking right at the entrance was no problem. Highly recommend!

I was disappointed with this booking experience. The website stated that check-in instructions would be provided three days prior, but I never received them and had to contact customer service because I was unable to reach the host. Response times were consistently slow.More concerning, the host was aware of intermittent plumbing issues for at least two weeks but failed to disclose this before our arrival. Upon check-in, we discovered that the shower would not drain and the toilet was backed up. Multiple attempts to fix it with a plunger were unsuccessful.When I messaged the host, it took over an hour to receive a response. She stated she had tried to send a message earlier that day about the issue, but we never received anything. By the next morning, the problem had worsened significantly, with water overflowing and the entire house smelling of raw sewage. The only response we received was that it was “out of her control.”To make matters worse, we were refunded less than half of the total cost, which did not reflect the severity of the situation or the impact on our stay.The last message sent was asking for a reason why we weren’t issued a full refund and we never received a response. This is extremely disappointing and poor communication on the host. I was surprised since the previous reviews didn’t mention any issues.
