We loved our stay! We had 5 adults and 3 kids, and our host had all the beds set up for us when we got there. We had plenty of towels and the kitchen was fully stocked. The ping pong table was a big hit!Perfect location for the Ark and the Creation Museum. If we are ever in the area again, we would love to stay again.

This is an older home, but in a beautiful setting, and exceptionally clean. Leya was wonderful and communicated better than any VRBO I've stayed in. We appreciated it being pet friendly since we take our little ones with us everywhere. Beds were comfy and there was enough room for us to all have our own bed. We had some fun getting competitive with ping pong in the basement. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

What a lovely property!!! We really enjoyed our stay. The kids and dogs had plenty of room to roam and we loved the outdoor spaces. My only regret is that the trip was too short to do all the things we wanted to do!!!

House was very clean and was stocked with everything we needed. Part of the reason we chose this place was it’s proximity to the Ark and Creation museum, and that worked out perfect. Communication with Leya was fast and easy, if we could give more stars we would. Thank you!

This place was amazing! It was the cleanest place we have ever stayed, especially considering it allowed dogs. I didn't see one dog hair anywhere! It also had so many things for the kids to do and a great front porch for coffee and quiet time. It was also centerally located to all the places we wanted to go. Communication with the owner was amazing and she always gave a quick response. We loved it!

We really enjoyed our stay. The property and surrounding area were absolutely beautiful. The kitchen was amazing for cooking. The outdoor area was relaxing. There were lots of amenities in the home for entertainment. It was very quiet and peaceful. The horses across were a joy to see. It is an ideal location for several of the attractions in the area. Our chihuahua enjoyed running around inside and out. It is definitely family friendly and kid friendly. The stairs were a little rough on my dad, but that’s expect as he is almost 80. He really enjoyed the home as well. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip.

Cynthia, thank you so much for your review! As for your father, for future our dining area is big enough to put a foldable bed and has doors for privacy. That is always an option! We do our best to accommodate for all. Come again soon!

Everything was very clean, very comfortable and well stocked with all the essentials. This was our first time traveling with the pup, and I was a little concerned about a "pet friendly" house. It was immaculate and no hint of previous for legged tenants. The outdoors and the room with the three beds was perfect for all the cousins and their adventures. The home was picked for its proximity to the Ark and Creation Museum, but the lightning bugs, honeysuckle and trails provided a secondary (and probably preferred) vacation for the kiddos.

Beautiful home and property that was a perfect distance from the Ark Encounter, Creation Museum, and the Cincinnati Zoo.The basement was a huge hit with our kids and they loved it. There were also two cots and a floor bed not mentioned in the listing which was great for flexible sleeping arrangements with the children. Great size house for our family of 7 and the outside was beautiful as well. The only downside was that the 3 floors of the house run on one AC unit. The basement gets relatively cold at night and the upstairs relatively warm, which is where all the beds are. If it were just a little cooler upstairs this would be absolutely perfect. We'd stay here again regardless though! Thank you for having us!
