Airbnb Apartment — Chillicothe, Ohio, USA

/

We were here September 18, 2025. We rented a nice downtown apartment big enough for the four of us ($314 /night - Airbnb property link).

We did a road trip with family leaving from Cleveland, stopping in Newark (east of Columbus) and arriving in Chillicothe north and east of Cincinnati. Paul lived in Ohio from birth until 21 years old but never visited these very historical places.

We were on a mission to visit the ancient Native American mounds dated from before European contact with the continent. Chillicothe is a very historic place in Ohio and American history. Great overnight road trip.

Below are pics from the accommodation.

Airbnb apartment — Birdtown, Lakewood, Ohio USA

We were here September 15-22, 2025 (1 bedroom, 1 bath house $124 per night, Airbnb property link). It’s a beautiful property, with our family living just two blocks away. We hope to stay here again when we return for another visit. Loved it—and love Lakewood. Beautifully remodeled and super comfortable. Highly recommend!

We were here August 28 - September 7, 2025 ($99 per night, property link). Nicely remodeled basement apartment with full kitchen off Cesar Chavez Blvd near SE Division. It was conveniently only two blocks from our family. Lots of nice touches with a sitting area in the backyard. Very nice owners live above and were a pleasure.

Portland International Guesthouse — NW Portland, Oregon USA

/

We were here August 20-28, 2025 ($110 per night, property website). Love this place and great guys run it. We plan to stay here again in the summer of 2026. There’s one private basement apartment but we stayed in a private room with shared bath upstairs. Shared kitchen space. There’s only four rooms plus the apartment. Great value and in a great neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Airbnb apartment — NW Portland, Oregon USA

/

We were here August 12-20, 2025. Our friend and neighbor Beau runs this Airbnb. We’ve stayed here before and visiting family has stayed here too. We love it! We would have stayed more nights but this was all we could get. He’s always 100% booked. This one-bedroom unit is right off popular NW 23rd Ave.

We forgot to take pics of the accommodation because we have stayed here so much we forgot! Next time we will.
