Cozy, clean, and central

We enjoyed our stay! The kids loved the chickens and sheep and geese. The place was clean and stocked with more than we expected including linens, pots and pans, utensils, even spices and coffee. There was a baby gate, stroller, and pack and play. Board games and kids games. Its centrally located to Ark and Creation Museum and Cincinnati Zoo. It was also within a two hour drive to see the eclipse in Indiana. Highly recommend this place.

Farm Fresh

Property is second floor garage apartment requiring one flight of steps for access, well lit deck porch around entrance allows for after dark arrival. Surroundings are a working sheep farm with shepherding canine on duty, several out buildings and the owner's residence. Large, private, not included in rental, pond/lake on site - attractive for migrating and local, resident waterfowl for ornithologists. Also there is an active free range chicken flock with chicken coop complex on site with a nice assortment of various breeds. Owner allows feeding of the chickens and geese on request, and fresh eggs are available for purchase when available. Owner maintains a private household garden in season, visible from apartment deck. Property is well appointed, plenty of kitchen equipment and dishes/glasses, good streaming/internet access, definitely clean and quiet. Best breakfast in Walton is Kelly Q's - try the cousin of Philadelphia scrapple - "goetta" with your eggs & pancakes. Bonus audio assets - Morning rooster calls and periodic train whistles from an isolated freight line about a mile away for railroad enthusiasts. Nothing better than hearing a train when you come from an area which lacks that traditionally rural sound.

Peaceful getaway

My family were hoping to get a good peaceful week away from home and that’s what we got. Grocery stores are less than 10 minutes. The ark and Cincinnati are a short (30 min) drive. It is a Fantastic spot.
