About this property

Country's Edge Near The Ark Encounter

Welcome to our place nestled in the country side. Where we hope you can spend your time relaxing, enjoying the scenery, and the abundance of wildlife. Wakeup to the sights and sounds of birds singing, sheep quietly grazing, Scottish Highland cattle calling and horses trotting on a quiet country morning. Expect to see deer grazing the property seemingly unaware of quite spectators as the sun starts to rise and burns off the morning dew. Our place is newly remodeled and ready for your stay. If you need additional space for large groups then look for our new property (Country's Edge #2 ) located directly next door to open spring 2020.

Short stay

I had a short stay in Kentucky and visited the Ark Encounter with my family. The house looked exactly like the pictures online. My family and I loved seeing the cows and donkeys in the field across from the residence. It was one of the best family vacations so far.

Ark Encounter visit

This property was a perfect in between place to stay while visiting the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. The hosts raise Scottish Highland cattle. We were able to book a last-minute encounter at their barn, which was a really fun addition to our itinerary.

Ark Encounter

Beautiful place to stay. Peaceful but not to far from amenities. Kids loved the friendly farm animals across the road. Everything worked and loved that the owners had salt and pepper and other kitchen basics. Loved the fire pit and first time two of the little ones made s’mores. I would come back in a heartbeat. Easy drive.

Conference Stat

We were in the area for a conference. The property was clean, well cared for, and when there was a minor mechanical difficulty, the host was on hand, and got it cared for in very good time. Beautiful, quiet location; a very nice stay. Thanks!

Beautiful country setting.

We enjoyed both the location and the place. Nice view of sunsets and sunrises. Even had some sheep in the back yard. House was clean and well equipped. We read the entrance code wrong and texted the owner and he was there in less than 5 minutes. We highly recommend this place. Owners are very friendly.

Great accommodations for our family vacation

Great home, well kept, and perfect for our family vacation over spring break. It was extremely quiet! Lots of extras in the home to make it more comfortable. We spent time in Lexington, Cincinnati, creation museum, and ark encounter. This was a good central location. Black and white cat came and hung out one night. The kiddos loved that. One morning sheep were hanging out in the yard as well. Roads to the home were curvy for these straight road Midwesterners. But provided great views and scenery. Thank you so much for the ease of making this part of the trip go flawlessly.

Destination Christmas

There were six of us that stayed. The youngest was 12 and the oldest was 73. The property was as described. We lived the remoteness of it. It was so peaceful and quiet. It was a great time to connect as a family away from the “busyness “ of city life.

Delight

The house was beautiful and sits on a peaceful piece of property. The firepit was so nice at night and woke up to cows and donkey's across the street. Would definately use again. Close to the Ark but far enough away to have peace.
