We had a great stay! It’s a beautiful house with plenty of room for my family of 8. When we needed extra towels and batteries for the remotes in the house they had them to us within an hour. Would highly recommend this property!
As a grandparent traveling with my son and his wife and 5 sons this house was amazing . We had room to spread out, eat together and relax. The place was clean and had plenty of thoughtful books and toys to make our stay welcoming. It was within walking distance of OPAS pizza which kept the kids happy the manager was helpful in solving our difficulty with locking the door in a very timely way with great courtesy. We would certainly recommend this location for families traveling in this area. (45 minutes from Creation Museum and 15 minutes from Ark Encounter)
We enjoyed the stay. During Christmas, amenities were depleted (hand/dish soap), property manager attented to need immediately...very appreciate!! Would stay again!
We had a great stay. There were only 3 of us but the house would accommodate a lot more. The beds slept well and everything was just as described. My 88 y/o mom was with us and she insisted I tell you how much she loved all the horse decor! We enjoyed it and would recommend.
Can’t say enough about this property! So clean! So comfortable! Everything a group needs to have a comfortable stay, even had travel brochures. Couldn’t get the coffee pod part of the coffee machine to work correctly and the coffee side was quite slow, but that is nothing compared to the convenience of parking right next to the entrance door, having an outside sitting area, tvs throughout the condo. 4 bedroom s, 2 baths…. Just an exceptional property that is very well maintained. Thanks for a great time!
Great for kids and adults! Amazing location to Ark Encounter!
Owner lists so many helpful details inside the property to make it as convenient as possible for any renter
Great location for visiting the ark, and easy home to share between two families. Clearly a newer reno at the time of our stay, and everything was in great shape.
Check-in had a slight hiccup (code wouldn't work), but a phone call resolved the issue fairly quickly.
We really enjoyed our stay. It was very clean decorated really cute...very spacious. It would have been nice to have a little more adult seating in the living area. If you have children plenty of things for them. Excellent!
We were very impressed with the cleanliness and the attention to detail that the hosts put into this house. The grandchildren loved all the toys and we loved all the extras in the house.
We had an amazing time! The place was immaculate and well stocked. Loved the large dining table. Enjoyed the convenience to the Ark Encounter and enjoyed being with family and playing games.
This was a cute, roomy apartment perfect for our group of 8 women who have been meeting in an online Bible Study Group for 6 years and decided to come together to meet in person. Each person had a clean comfortable bed, and the 2 bathrooms were more than sufficient to meet our needs. The kitchen was well equipped for our short stay - we didn't cook, but coffeemakers and microwave worked for us! The large kitchen table was great for game time and conversations. The location was convenient to the Ark Encounter and to local restaurants where we enjoyed friendly service and good food!
Thanks for a great place for our meet-up Ark adventure!
The owner was very nice and accommodating. Quickly replied back to any message I sent and the home was very clean. I really liked the fact they had things for young children to participate with. I have nothing bad to say about this place and would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a place to stay near Noah’s Ark.
The house was beautiful, very clean and even more than we expected. I would recommend it to anyone. The owners were great to work with. If we come back to this area they will be the first ones we call
This was an awesome experience from start to finish. Great communication and the place was just as described. Quiet neighborhood, room for all 8 of us and the location was perfect for our visit to the Ark Encounter and creation museum.
Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend for anyone needing a large space with things for all ages..
Thank you for allowing us to stay
The Johnson family
Our stay was fantastic! The home was comfortable. The outdoor seating area was great. Our little ones enjoyed room for their bikes and basketball. The owners were especially responsive to a couple of concerns that cropped up, out of their control. Thanks for everything!
This home is well suited for small children. Inside of home is nicely thought out. It was just a minute down the road to a wonderful Calvary Chapel church we visited. Very close to Ark Encounter and under an hour to the creation museum. The finishing touches and kitchen utensils and pans were pretty cheap and likely won't last long and the air to the bunk rooms needed better flow.
Ceiling fans in each room did help. The house was very pretty inside. Nice appliances. Enjoyed cornhole outside. We'd stay again. We were comfortable and enjoyed our stay.
We can’t say enough good things about the hosts and the home!
The hosts were quick to respond to questions and kind. Just a pleasure to work with. The attention to detail and care they have put into their home is above and beyond. Our kids loved their room and the toys and we all enjoyed the family space. It is a great home to accommodate lots of people and more than fulfilled our needs for a family of eight.
When we come back in the future or if someone needs a recommendation for a VRBO this home will be the one we will seek first.
