Excellent Location!

Our family of four adults and one child was very comfortable in this clean and spacious house. We found everything we needed to cook, relax, wash clothes and enjoy our visits to the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. Ideally located between the two attractions and plenty of amenities nearby.

The house was wonderful!

We had a great stay. It was the perfect place for our mini vacation. The house was absolutely wonderful. Very well maintained and we loved the added bonus of having a garage attached as it was snowy and cold and we enjoyed not having to get in a cold car. Perfectly situated between The Creation Museum and The Ark Encounter.

Great stay

This home met all our needs. Very clean. Even had a two car garage we could pull in to. Very nice. Only suggestion we had was to maybe have some room darkening curtains put up on the bedroom windows to help block out the street light from across the street. Otherwise a great stay.

Overall really good stay- well maintained, clean comfortable and properly stocked. It was Nice to have a garage. The only downside was very bright lights outside and busy main road close to the house. The owner was very responsive and easy to work with.

Clean and convenient to Interstate

The house is clean and well-stocked. Having the garage was a nice feature since it was raining when we arrived. Internet worked fine for streaming, and communication with the host was easy. It is close to the road & train, but we agreed the pro’s far outweighed that con. Cleanup & checkout were simple and not overly demanding. We would stay again.

The blue house

We very much enjoyed our stay. The beds were comfortable the pillows were awesome. The home was very comfortable. Loved that we had a garage to park in. The home was very clean very new smelling, we recommend this home and if in the area we would stay here again. The home was very easy to find as the blue really sticks out when your looking for the house.
