Exceptional Stay Near Holiday World!

We stayed over the 4th of July holiday so that we could take our family to Holiday World. It is a quiet & peaceful country home with all the amenities you would need. The host was super hospitable and helpful with quick communication. We will definitely stay here again the next time we come to the park!

Great Short Stay

This quaint little house was a perfect place for our family to stay after a long, hot day at Holiday World. It was about 10 mins from Holiday World and about 15 mins away from a variety of food options. The location is very quiet and our kids loved looking at the chickens in the backyard. The host was quick to respond and gave us the option to check in early since the house was not booked the night before. We hope this house is always available when we visit Holiday World or Santa Claus. :)

Perfect home away from home

The property was exactly as advertised. Plenty of extra towels and wash clothes for my family of 6. The property is right in the middle of all the activities so drive time was minimal.
