Each historic home in Cincinnati tells a story and for some of the lucky ones, those stories are not yet finished.
Swing House
This charming blue house in Camp Washington is far from finished with its story and now has a new life as The Swing House in Cincinnati. It is a realized dream for local artist Mark DeJong, and now you can spend the night in this 1880s idyllic space in Cincinnati.
The three-story home has been renovated into a bright and airy space that acts as an overnight destination and art gallery, of sorts.

While it is obviously a historic space, the home has many modern elements, from some of its furnishings to the integration of art into the design.
And of course the most whimsical touch in the home is the useable swing that is hung right in the middle of the living space.

Everyone remembers that freedom of swinging at the playground as a child and now you can relive those memories within this overnight rental space. It's the ideal spot to sit, swing, and reflect not only on this beautiful space, but also on anything else that may be on your mind.
