Perfect location for our family. We loved the farmhouse cabin. So cute and beautifully equipped. The drive from the farmhouse to the Ark was amazing and scenic farm country. We loved our stay and will definitely refer this cabin to our friends.

This was an outstanding place for our family. We wanted to go to the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter and it was close to both, and it was 20 minutes from the airport! Close to restaurants and shopping-great place to stay!! Property manager was awesome too!

Marleen is a great host and always quick to respond to any questions. The house has tons of room and convenient to everything. We visited Ark Encounter/Creation Museum/and Cincinnati. Each place was only 25-30 minutes away and out of the city. There are grocery stores and restaurants right down the road. We recommend First Watch! We would definitely recommend this place to stay! Thanks again! Landis Family.

If going to Ark and Creation this Farmhouse is the perfect location, half way between both. If not it is still a terrific place to stay just two miles from Town of Independence. The host, Marlene Smothers made our stay really terrific.
