We came down for a wedding and this was the perfect place. The house was absolutely beautiful. The owner was cutting the grass when we got there and he was so nice. It was so nice and peaceful hanging out in the deck. It was a perfect place to spend the weekend.

We enjoyed our stay! The house was clean and stocked with all the necessities. It even had cute fall decor. It is located in a quiet country setting that was very peaceful. We enjoyed daily visits from the deer. It was close to the Ark Encounter, Creation museum and Cincinnati. The owner was quick to answer all messages!

I remember first entering the house and it smelled so clean as soon as I opened the door. The grandkids had a blast running around the yard and exploring. The house had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.

Overall the stay was nice. There was plenty of shampoo and soap. There was plenty of toilet paper and silverware. We loved the porch and sat out there most of the time. Just beautiful. When we went to bed we noticed several stains on our sheets. They appeared clean but there were brown stains in the pillow case as well as the fitted and top sheets. We couldn’t hang our clothes up because the closet door was locked and there was no hair dryer in the bathroom. The bath towel was in the bedroom under the nightstand along w the washcloth. Maybe you could figure out a way to put them in the bathroom? Like in a tote under the sink since there wasn’t anything under there? Lastly perhaps better directions of how to get in with your door lock. Our friends had to sit outside several minutes just to find out they didn’t open the lock correctly. When I looked there was only directions how to lock and not unlock the door sent.

Everything was very clean and tidy. The beds were comfortable. Since it is warming yo, finally, you might want to add a few new chairs to the deck and get the grills ready! Overall, a very nice place to stay! Thanks

My wife and I brought our mothers up to see the ark for mother's day. The house was perfect! Clean and cozy, just like we were at home. Enjoy peace and quiet on the covered deck. We had a great stay and a great host.
