Perfect size little home, clean and easy access

The only issue that we had was there was not much around us as far as food. It was a little community that was right on the river, which was nice. We enjoyed being together in this home and it was very quaint with everything you need. I highly recommend it. Just make sure you take snacks and things that you can fix in the home if you don't have time to go about 20 to 30 minutes to get something else.

Property was clean and comfortable. From the original pictures we saw we thought the property was in the country. It was right in the middle of town. It was quiet and fit our needs for a short stay.

Great little town to stay in to get away...but plenty close enough to area attractions. We went to the Creation Museum, Ark Encounter, Cincinnati Zoo, and Louisville. Great town to stay in, friendly people, nice park for the kids. House was in beautiful condition. Thank you!

Perfect home away from home

Our family consists of adult children down to 10 yr. old. All 10 of us stayed very comfortably at the house. The kids utilized the yard for football and play. The neighborhood cats were a treat for the kids as well....coming over for a pet whenever they were out. The house was so clean and well stocked of things you would need for a stay away from home. We will definitely stay again if ever in the area and we will recommend to any friends or family who go to that area.
