Just right for Ark and science museum

We loved all the antiques, the convenience of dry falls for food and five minutes from the Ark. We just wished that it had a central AC instead of a window unit. I appreciate the host, they were very nice people and if you message them they will answer you back very quickly. Overall we had a nice stay. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.

Awesome property! We really enjoyed our stay. It was super convenient to get to the Ark Encounter and a reasonable distance to drive to the Creation Museum. The quaint cottage-like home was clean and wonderfully decorated and had all the comforts and conveniences of home. The outdoor space was nice as well. The hosts were very responsive when contacted. We highly recommend staying at this property.

Lovely, well appointed cottage with every kind consideration. The quaintness, the view, the birds and horses, and the spectacular sunrises made our stay beyond expectations.

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.

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.
