Cute and cozy place. Warning to others it's a pretty narrow road to get to the house. Would have been better if we had electricity the whole time but that was because of a storm not anything the host did. The horses were an added bonus that the kids loved! Overall it was a great experience!

My family and i had a great time! Its a peaceful and beautiful country setting. Kathryn was very kind and helpful with questions about the neighborhood. She has lots of games and kids toys available and even a small dog cage if you bring your fur babies. I would definitely stay there again!

Perfect rustic spot for getting to Creation Museum (1hr) and Ark Encounter (25mins). Great for kids and a small dog. Interesting pellet stove to heat the living room. Well insulated and survived a bad thunderstorm and 17 degrees F while staying with 2 young boys, a dog and my wife. Deer in the backyard. Horses in the front yard.
