Great spot for a group!

Wonderful place in a quiet area but close to the Ark Encounter and not too far to drive to the Creation Museum. There was plenty of sleeping spots for our mostly teenage crew. They also had a good selection of games and toys for our younger kids!

Great location for the Ark Encounter!

The location was great if you are going to see the Ark Encounter. You can see it from the front of the house! It was as described on VRBO and clean. The rental company was attentive and made check-in and out easy. We would stay again.

We rented this house while in the area to see the Ark encounter and Creation museum. It was PERFECT! Super close to the ark which was great and yet out in the country. Nice large house and yard for the kids to unwind at after a day touring. My hubby and I went with my MIL and our 7 little kids (ages 9-0) and we had PLENTY of space! They provided all the basics, plus extra (pack and play, lots of kitchen items for cooking, coffee, tea, and sugar, board games, toys, plenty of towels, etc). We also loved the "wall of guests" in the kitchen and enjoyed seeing where people had all come from :) We would highly recommend this place and would definitely return!

Close to the Ark get away

It was in the country nice and quiet. Easy to access the Highway. The house was clean and that is a big deal. the way it was advertised was exactly how it was about being close to the Ark Encounter. . We all had plenty of room to move around. We had just a few concerns the bathroom at the end of the hallway on the left had a very slick surface even when dry might want to check this out hard to keep your footing someone could fall we had to very careful when getting a shower. The other bedroom at the end of the hallway on the right side not sure those were real mattresses on the bunk beds and not just a box spring. Very uncomfortable. Would not recommend sleeping on those unless they get new mattresses. The bunk beds in the downstairs area were very comfortable. No other issues overall was great. Thank you !
