Fantastic!!!

We loved our stay! The home was put together with love and care. Tammy and Alan are great. The view was spectacular and the horses were just an added bonus. There were hidden treasures everywhere you looked. We enjoyed hiking, the Ark, a couple museums, and a laugh with Tammy and Alan, I know I will never forget this wonderfully fantastic trip!

What we needed and more.

We did not find anything lacking. The house was clean and overall comfortable. The view was lovely and peaceful The less than excellent score is because of the following points. The house is a little on a curve so not remote. I missed where the list of closing up was (on the fridge) but that was because I never used it. We did use the tv more than we normally do and sat in the couch for some time. It was not comfortable. Too soft. The bed mattress was also very soft and bouncy. And we are firm mattress sleepers. Overall stay I would do it again.

Great stay

Very quiet and peaceful place to stay. Loved having my breakfast on the back porch watching the squirrel run from tree to tree. Had a visit from the calico cat and heard the horses in the distance. Very close to Ark Encounter which is why we had planned our stay there.

Excellent place to stay

This cottage reminded me of my childhood home. It was clean and very nicely decorated. Outdoor area was cute and the cat was a nice touch. I would definitely recommend for a couple or a small family.

Kentucky Charm

Nice small charming home that had everything needed to enjoy our trip to the state of Kentucky. Loved the country setting, sitting on the back deck viewing the horses next door among the rolling hills. The home had many little extra touches and memorabilia to appreciate as well. It was obvious that the hosts wanted us to have an enjoyable stay.

Our Kentucky Vacation

We enjoyed our stay at "The Little White Cottage"! We enjoyed the little cat that comes by. We wish we had known her name. We got her some food. We never saw any horses at the fence, but we enjoyed the cottage. Only bad thing we have to say is the air conditioning needs to be upgraded.

About the host

Hosted by Allan & Tammy

We discovered guest houses (vacation rentals) when we went out of town after trying bed-and-breakfasts & before that motels. We found them to be more comfortable with more space and more relaxing. We have lived in this neighborhood with the cottage for over 25 years now and enjoy the rural feel while still being in town.

Why they chose this property

We don't want to be the busiest by being the least expensive. We do want to offer the cleanest and most relaxing accommodations available in our area. We also tried to put everything you may need in the cottage, so you don't have to worry about anything....except relaxing.

What makes this property unique

You can cook meals in the kitchen. you can do laundry if you need to. You can roast wieners and marshmallows over the open fire pit while you are watching the horses come right up to the fence. Or you can just sit on the deck and enjoy the birds and squirrels and all of Gods glory!
