About this house rental
The best place to stay when visiting the National Air Force Museum. It's open year round, entrance is free, and you even can walk to the museum if you want :)
You will also be very close to all the Wright Patterson AFB entrances and only 5 minutes to Wright State University, only 10 minutes to the Nutter Center (for watching various shows) and Downtown Dayton - including the Oregon District, University of Dayton, Schuster Center, Miami Valley Hospital, and others. Perfect for vacation or work!
The space:
This cozy home has two bedrooms with queen beds that can sleep 2 (or 3 kids if needed) and an extra rollaway bed if you need it. The living room has a TV with local channels and Netflix and streaming TV channels via SlingTV... the other bedroom also has their own TV also with Netflix if you'd like to watch your own shows.
A DVD player and lots of DVDs are also available for your entertainment, as are various books, comic books and board games for the kids.
If you are an outdoors person, a bike lane is right in front of the home. This will connect you to the major bike lanes in town and even to other cities like Tipp City, Troy, and even to Cincinnati if you wish! (see for more information)
Areas of the home:
You have full access to the Kitchen (full size fridge, stove, microwave, coffeemakers, toaster, utensils) to save money by cooking your own food, as well as laundry facilities (washer and dryer in basement) if needed.
You will have a driveway to park your car in and extra parking spaces if needed at the front of the property.
Other information:
The back of the house is close to a railroad track (there is another house between us and the track) and you can sometimes hear a train coming through (sounds like rain pouring) for about 1-2 minutes .. about 3-4 times a day. Not loud enough to really disturb you, especially if watching TV. It's a pretty good experience to see the train as it goes by though.. you don't see that often nowadays.
No parties please. This is a quiet neighborhood and we'd like to keep it that way.
Disclaimer: For your safety and the safety of others, surveillance cameras are installed outdoors at this property. They are only pointed to the public areas that include the driveway, front porch, and back door areas.
Finally, we have have prepared this home as best as we can but if you find something that needs improving, please contact us and we'll do our best to fix or rectify the issue. Thanks!

House was great. Close to anything you might need. Loved the ping pong table, hadn't played in years! Just needs some more kitchenware and a cutting board. We are old folks so the tv thing was difficult for us. Maybe directions for local tv would help
All in all we loved our stay.

Always an enjoyable visit in a very enjoyable VRBO. Mr Joseph is a very responsive host ready to rectify any issue if required.

The blue house is easy to find and it’s set off a quiet neighborhood road right across from the Air Force museum. My kids ages 6 and 4 loved having books they could read and some games like Uno available for us. The best part was watching them discover how to play ping pong and air hockey for the first time at the house. We had a nice couple nights enjoying the front porch after the kids went to bed we will book this again when we visit the museum!

The house was located in a great area. Right across from the museum and also within a 10 minute drive to The Nutter Center, where we spent most of our time for competitions.

The game room was a nice surprise, all was perfect except very close to train tracks that woke me. But I am a light sleeper.

Very clean but older than the pictures indicated. Appreciated the budget stay though for the one night and convenient location to the Air Force museum!! If you're a coffee drinker bring your own things. Also be sure to check out the area to be sure you feel comfortable with the location 👍 Easy check in and out and great communication with the owners.

Older home in a quiet neighborhood. Very centrally located for our trip to visit family.
Enjoyed hving the AFB & museum across the street. Easy to find other necessities (gas, groceries, restaurants) within a short drive.
The home was nice. Plenty of room for 3 adults and one child. Cute porch for morning coffee. Large kitchen. Our son enjoyed the ping pong table in the basement. Yard was nice, larger than expected (wish we would have brought lawn games like bocce ball or cornhole). Bike trails easily accessed.
Owner was very nice, communicative & flexible. The house wasn't spotless, but overall it exceeded our expectations. No complaints & will definitely look at staying here again on our next trip to the area.
Thank you!

All the basic conveniences of home in this Vrbo. Climate controlled, washer, dryer and off street parking make this house very comfortable. The place of choice when my brother and I visit the Dayton area for volunteer work.

We needed a clean 2 bedroom place so we could go through the museum over 2 or 3 days. The house was perfect for our needs and right across the street from the museum. It was easy check in, clean, lots of TVs with Roku and kitchen properly supplied. I would recommend.

The property is very nice and clean! It was in a wonderful location right across the street from the Wright Patterson Air Force museum. It was also close to the Hollywood casino for those interested in that sort of thing. Management of the property was great and very easy to communicate with!

My daughter and I stayed here with my grandson and felt perfectly safe. Being across from the Air Force base we got to hear the reveille played every morning. We loved it! We will stay here again and again when we are in town.

We really enjoyed our stay at Gerald's place. It's a cute little well maintained older home (super easy to find) close to shopping and restaurants. New appliances and thoughtful touches make it a nice place to stay. Plenty of parking.

Great place to stay for the weekend. We came in for a soccer tournament so we really just slept here. It was nice being by the Air Force Museum and near the Wright Brothers attraction for down time between games. It was nice having a washer and dryer to get soccer clothes ready for the next day. Hope to stay again for next year’s tournament.

The property reminds me of a house from the Christmas story - with some modern conveniences. Nothing pretentious, but then again I got the feeling Dayton is the opposite of fancy in of itself. Clean comfortable and excellent air conditioning. The owner was very responsive to all concerns and made himself avilable. I’d recommend this if being away from downtown is desired or you want to spend a lot of time at air force museum.

The property was just as described. The location was very quiet and across the street from AFM. It's an older house but it's clean & modern with comfortable beds. I would definitely stay again and recommend to others. Although there is a train close by we only recall hearing it once or twice in 2 days and neither time disturbed us.

Property was very conveniently located near the AF Museum and a short drive to the Rose Music Center where attended a concert. Great host, easy checkin, very nicely decorated. We would definitely recommend staying here.

As volunteers at the National Museum of the Air Force and as my tile describes, this is a great place and one of choice for my brother and I to stay for a week.
Well taken care of, clean and thoughtfully furnished with plenty of amenities.

Location was great for our trip. It was clean, neat and well appointed. The biggest disapointment was the back bedroom mattress was very uncomfortable. Improve that and it is a gem for those visiting Dayton!

We've stayed at this property before, so when planning another trip to the museum, there was no question of whether to book at this property again or not. It's so close to the museum you could literally just walk there. Very convenient! This is a clean, nicely maintained property. The owner is so kind and quick to answer any questions that you may have. Will definitely be staying here again!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. We felt comfortable and relaxed between our activities nearby. The location was perfect for visiting the USAF Museum, Carillon Park and Woodland Cemetery. We also found a wonderful diner nearby, Debbie's Restaurant.

The home was very clean and tastefully decorated with all listed amenities in clean and working order. Bedrooms are very spacious, kitchen is fully equipped and the property is well-maintained. The gated driveway and yard provides an extra sense of safety, neighbors were very nice, and the front porch offers a view of the Air Force Museum. Gerald was very responsive and friendly.

Gerald is a great guy and is very communicative. The house is a nice gem in a little neighborhood across from the AF museum. The house was clean, comfortable, and in a great location for men. I’ll be looking to stay here again the next time I’m in town.

To say it's close to the museum would be an understatement. We considered walking there! Older house, roomy and comfortable, and everything worked.

My husband and I spent the day at the W-P AF museum and were definitely ready to get off our feet by 3PM. The house was just across the street from the museum, so it was a quick trip. Checkin was smooth, no issues. There was a few trains that went by during the night that woke us up, but the listing did state that there was a railroad track nearby. Overall, nice stay!

Great value and also convenient also to a great, great cafe nearby too - Pettibone Coffee. Turns out Dayton's cafe scene is in it's 4th wave. Only thing I'd ask is that perhaps the cooking pots and pans were refreshed for those who want to cook. Overall would recommend and would happily revisit. Thanks!

Check in was smooth. House is located in a quiet neighborhood and close to everything you need to do. It had everything we needed. We did have small problem with no washcloths but the owner was very quick to respond and to drop off them. I would definitely rent it again.

House made it feel like it was a home away from home and the owner replied in a timely fashion when we had questions. Definitely would stay again
