Excellent Stay in Mason

My family really enjoyed this house. We hosted a baby shower here and the bee/honey theme fit perfectly. A very modern and aesthetically pleasing place! It was also nice that there is a high-chair, baby gate, and pack and play available.

Our favorite VRBO property

My family and I lodged with the Cozy Bee cottage for the second time; and just as our first experience, it was wonderful. We truly consider this our “home away from home” in the greater Cincinnati area. The house, neighborhood, and convenience to all attractions are just perfect. Lynn is a wondeful host!

Home for the Holidays

My family is extended across the tri-state area and this home was perfectly placed for all to gather and visit for a family holiday celebration. The home is very open and has amazing spaces. The host was lovely to deal with and even gracious enough to decorate for the season! Highly recommend this home.

Perfect Accommodation

This property was absolutely perfect for our family. The Cozy Bee truly had everything we could ask for while in a very nice, quiet, and pleasant community. We traveled for a blend of business and pleasure and simply couldn’t have had better accommodations from booking to check out. I highly recommend to anyone traveling to the greater Cincinnati area.

Perfect for everyone

We were a family of 7 visiting for the holidays. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. The kids spent hours in the game room which was wonderful for the cold, rainy days. We used the fire pit one night to make smores and that was also a hit. Popcorn and movie night was perfect in the theatre room. We did a lot of cooking and having that huge kitchen and dining table was wonderful. Great location, close to everything we needed or wanted to do.
