We love the open space kitchen area. Because we have small children in our group, we eat at the house often. We are able to seat everyone and visit!

Wonderful home

We loved this house. It was the perfect location for visiting The Ark, Creation Museum, and Cincinnati Zoo. My 4 year old loved the board games, and my 9 year old loved the foosball table. We had a wonderful time. Thank you

This was a great house for my family and my sister's family to stay. We visited the Creation Museum and the Ark -- this was great driving distance to both. Very clean and comfortable. I highly recommend it/we would stay there again.

Great location

We visited the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. The house is located halfway between each and close to lots of shopping and restaurants. It has a great location, and the house was nice to just relax and crash. Plus everyone had their own space that they could go relax in.

Beautiful home and great stay

This is a beautiful property and well maintained. The backyard was such a great space for kids to play. The owners/property manager checked in regularly to make sure we were doing well and made sure we had a baby gate to make sure the home was a safe place for our toddler. There was even a high chair available, something I didn't expect and was a huge perk. This is a great property for families. It is also the perfect distance between the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. It was like a 27 minute drive to one and like a 25 minute to the other. A perfect location to enjoy both of these attractions.

Nice stay

We enjoyed our stay. There were a few obstacles, but they didn’t stop us from enjoying ourselves . The back landscaping was full of thistles, and the kitchen could have been stocked better: we only had 4 coffee mugs and the pans were not no-stick, so we spent way too much time cleaning them. The beds were comfortable, but several of the light fixtures and things in the bathrooms were starting to rust; perhaps there is a ventilation problem. Great location and safe neighborhood.

Family Ark/Creation Museum Trip

This house is the perfect location for going to both the Creation Museum and the Ark! It’s right in the middle of the two. We also went to the Newport Aquarium, which is only 30min away. The location cannot be beat! This house was exceptionally clean, well kept, up to date, and had all we needed to spread out and be comfortable. I would highly recommend for families! We were so pleased with the communication with the host and check-in/out was extremely easy.

Super Nice

Ultra clean and comfortable. It had all the nice little touches without clutter. We enjoyed walking through the quiet and friendly neighborhood. The airport is close with low flying planes, but it wasn’t noisy or noticeable. Just kind of cool to watch them.

A great place to stay when visiting the Ark Experience or the Creation Museum.

We took a family getaway with the grandkids and had a great time at the property. It is well set up for kids with activities and a fun bunk room. The rooms were comfortable and attractively furnished. The location was perfect. The kitchen was adequately equipped but disorganized - container tops and bottoms in different cupboards, etc. The major issues were the air return vents being very dusty and the neighbor parking his work truck obstructing part of the driveway (which is pretty much out of the hosts control). The host was very easy to communicate with and overall it worked out great for us.

3 generation Family vacation

This place was so clean! Very convenient to where we were spending most of our day (the ark encounter and the creation museum), this house was right in the middle which was great! They had games that we could use! My kids loved the connect four! Separate sitting space so I could nurse my infant and not be in front of my family. My infant actually stayed in the pack n play, that was provided, in the walk in master closet! Each room had a stand up fan! The children loved the bunk beds! Marvelous stay!
