Branch Hill Manor House - luxury brick colonial on private estate

Branch Hill Manor House is a luxury appointed 4 bedroom, 3 bath full-brick home located just 1 mile from the highway, restaurants, shopping, groceries and Starbucks in Loveland Ohio! We recently adjusted our rates to allow smaller groups of up to 5 guests in the much lower base nightly rate or if you need to have a larger group you can add up to 10 guests total for a nightly charge per person after the first 5. If you reach out to us on a third party booking platform (instead of our direct website/email) we will not be able to book you directly because of our agreement with these platforms. If you found us organically and don't want to book on a platform that charges extra booking fess you will need to reach out to us through our website and NOT through a booking platform's messaging system. Please understand if you are booking through a 3rd party booking platform (VRBO, HomeAway, etc.) and not direct through Branch Hill Estate rentals, the fees and rates are slightly higher - we do not discount those and can not remove those fees. Booking on a secondary platform like these will make your reservation fees higher as this is how theses platforms collect money for their services. Please do not request that we reduce those fees after requesting to book on these platforms as we are not able to change those charges as they are not charged by us. Hot tub will need to be requested when booking via email and is an additional charge of $35 per night if booking on a third party booking platform (Airbnb, VRBO, etc). We can not add the hot tub if you do not request and pay for it within 24hrs of booking your reservation. Our base nightly rental rate includes the first 5 registered guests. After the first 5 guests there is an additional charge per person per night of your reservation up to our maximum occupancy of 10 guests. **PLEASE do not book or request to book this property if you are interested in or intend to have family, friends, etc. visit you at the property during your stay. We can NOT allow visitors to the property outside of those included on the reservation regardless of wether they intend to spend the night or not and MUST enforce this rental policy per our liability and rental policies. This is part of the legally binding short term rental agreement you much sign when booking your stay and we must uphold that agreement in its entirety. ** If you need a place to stay that you can invite others over to visit you we respectfully ask that you find another property that is able to allow you to use their property and vacation home in that manner. Reach out with any questions directly before booking to clarify any questions you may have. Note that the property can not be rented for hosting an event or used as a venue of any kind. This is a short term rental/vacation property and may only be used by our guests as an overnight rental and only in that manner. Reservations that are discovered to be in violation of this policy will result in cancellation without refund.
