Peaceful Stay Close to Everything

We had an awesome stay during our visit to Kentucky. Close to the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter. Owner took us on a tour of the place, beautiful spot. We loved the animals in the barn and being able to walk down to the river. The pond by the house was great fun for swimming.

We had a wonderful time at this sweet farmhouse! All the amenities we needed and centrally located.

We had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The owners have done a wonderful job on the property. The lids enjoyed swimming in the pond and fishing in the other pond. We also had several visits to Jack the Donkey. Kids also love the train coming by. We highly recommend this property!

Just perfect!

A gorgeous house in a peaceful, serene setting. I have nothing but positive things to say about our vacation experience and enjoyed our stay very much. If you are looking for a house with charm and history in a quiet, beautiful country setting then this is your place. The house had plenty of space for our family of four. The hosts had every thing we needed to make our stay comfortable. We hope to come back soon.

Relaxing and Fun

We had the best time. From sitting under the stars by the fire pit to listening to the tranquil sounds of the trains. My grandson loved the animals at the barn. We walked the trail around the farm. The house was so inviting. We had everything needed for a quiet vacation. Thanks for your hospitality and lovely home. Kaffie from Mississippi.

Rustic living

Loved feeding and enjoying the animals. House was in the “country” so a little off the beaten path. Beautiful countryside, and home was as advertised. A little rustic, and would have liked a bit more in the bathroom - clothes hooks and more towel hanging space. Jackie, Big T and Ramuel were our favorites! Totally delightful!

Perfect family getaway!

Amazing! The location is perfect for those who want something a little bit more country but not so far away that you can't run 20 minutes up the road to run to the store ( which where we are from is close!). Plenty of privacy and backyard for the kids to play in. Ours particularly loved the swing! There is an active train track that runs along the property but the owners have earplugs stashed everywhere if the noise bothers you while sleeping. Well stocked kitchen, outdoor grill and seating, and comfortable beds. Our family enjoyed staying here immensely and would definitely stay here again!

Enjoyed the fire pit and swing Setting on back porch was very peaceful When we return to this area this first choice. Just make sure any food items you want to buy before going to house. It’s a ways out and don’t want to return to town unless necessary. We loved it.

Ark Encounter trip

This was a great place. Not a long drive to Ark Encounter or Creation Museum. The house was clean and everything was as described. We used the deck/outdoor space a lot. Scott was a great host, allowing access to their property. Our family enjoyed both ponds with swimming, fishing, and kayaks/row boat, as well as hiking to the river. We also enjoyed visiting the animals in the barn. The only negative was the train that came through every night. Woke us every time, but I’m a light sleeper. Our kids did like looking for their crushed pennies though.
