The accommodations were perfect, making meals in fully equipped kitchen & enjoying chats on porch swing as boys played basketball.

We will recommend this to anyone we know that plans on coming to the ark and the Creation Museum. One of our favorite things was saying good morning to the chickens, and the fresh chicken eggs Emily and Joe left for us so delicious. Thank you for sharing your little Slice of Heaven. Blessings on you and your family. Bob and Karen ##### Robert W. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark L. Oct 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sheep,chickens & eggs This property is a working sheep and chicken farm. Farm fresh eggs are available from the diverse flock of chickens free ranging on site. Two large fenced pastures have numerous sheep grazing for photo ops and the males will venture over to allow a face and ear rub if you are patient in calling them over. 2nd floor garage apartment with well equipped kitchen, two bedrooms, well suited for family of two adults and two children. Streaming TV. WIFI. One bath, large multi-purpose room for dining, TV video and gaming, great cabinet full of board games. Leave the window open a bit and no need for an alarm clock - roosters have you covered. Frequent freight trains add to the rural ambience with the nostalgic sounding of the horn at grade crossings. Book this property for a farm-styled getaway with convenience to Cincinnati attractions. ##### Mark L. Stayed 9 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark L., Cape May Court House NJ Jan 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Farm Fresh Property is second floor garage apartment requiring one flight of steps for access, well lit deck porch around entrance allows for after dark arrival. Surroundings are a working sheep farm with shepherding canine on duty, several out buildings and the owner's residence. Large, private, not included in rental, pond/lake on site - attractive for migrating and local, resident waterfowl for ornithologists. Also there is an active free range chicken flock with chicken coop complex on site with a nice assortment of various breeds. Owner allows feeding of the chickens and geese on request, and fresh eggs are available for purchase when available. Owner maintains a private household garden in season, visible from apartment deck. Property is well appointed, plenty of kitchen equipment and dishes/glasses, good streaming/internet access, definitely clean and quiet. Best breakfast in Walton is Kelly Q's - try the cousin of Philadelphia scrapple - "goetta" with your eggs & pancakes. Bonus audio assets - Morning rooster calls and periodic train whistles from an isolated freight line about a mile away for railroad enthusiasts. Nothing better than hearing a train when you come from an area which lacks that traditionally rural sound. ##### Mark L. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cathy B. Sep 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome experience! This place was the best for our needs. It sits halfway between the Creation Museum and the Ark Experience. There were also many stores and restaurants close by. The owner was wonderful and answered all our questions. The place was nice and clean. We enjoyed staying outside of town and watching the sheep and chickens. Homeowner also gifted us a dozen fresh farm eggs. We would gladly stay here again if we ever return to this area. ##### Cathy B. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tiffany N. Aug 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay We enjoyed our stay at Bluegrass Blessings. It was just the right size for our family. We were looking for a bit of a smaller rental since our 14 month old loves to explore. The property was beautiful and we loved seeing all the animals. The house was well stocked with all the essentials. The location was perfectly located between the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. ##### Tiffany N.

Very clean, great communication, easy access to the highway and essential stores for supplies (and coffee). Good food within 10 minutes as well. 30 minutes to Ark or Creation Museum! ##### Ryan H.
