About this property

Granny’s House 2 bedroom, 5 miles to ark! Bonus walkthrough space with twin bed.

This house is 5 miles from the Ark and is 40 miles from the Creation Museum. We are only 32 miles from the Greater Cincinnati Airport. We are located right between Cincinnati Ohio and Lexington Kentucky, 2 miles of Interstate 75. There is a large lake located just 6 miles from the house.

Large old house that sits on an acre lot. The farm with House was purchased in 1943 by Cline and Pearl King. At that time they were told the house was 100 years old and with that being said it would have been built pre Civil War era. They named the road Kings Heights an in the 90s the city changed it to Kings Drive.
Over the years the farm land has been divided out. Part for other homes and what farm is left is owned by a private owner not a family member. The house over the years has had renovation inside and out but a lot of the old remains.
Now we are the Great Grandchildren and are giving others a chance to enjoy the old home and occasional beautiful sunrises and or sunsets.

KY Getaway

Loved the charming home and serene surroundings. Enjoyed visiting with Lawrence about the history of his family and home. I certainly recommend this lovely house to any who visit the Ark or Creation Museum--handy to both! It was a joy and a blessing!!

Charming and historic!

My friend and I were pleasantly impressed with this cute “granny’s house” which is still owned by family of Granny King. It is believed to be over 100 years old and the flooring and baseboard are reminiscent of that time period.The rooms are generously sized, the bathrooms are modernized and we were very comfortable. The view from the front of the house is of fields and a barn. It is an easy drive from I-75, maybe 5 minutes and nice to get away from the restaurants and gas stations right off the highway.

Warm and inviting

We enjoyed our stay while visiting The Ark Museum. Country setting away from city noise. The house is charming and comfortable. However there is a train that runs close by several times a day and night.

Wonderful trip!

We went to the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. They were both amazing as was our stay Granny’s House! We arrived later than planned and Lawrence turned on all the lights for us…much appreciated! When we walked into the house, all 3 of us felt like we were at our Mamaw’s house. We had everything we needed but were given a number to call if we had any problems. I highly recommend this home to stay at if you are ever in the area!!!

Comfortable and quaint

We loved the grandma feel, and God’s blessings ar Lund the home. Larence introduced himself and it was reassuring that help was a door away and the owners just down the street. Will recommend this cottage and if I am blessed to come back(Ark exhibit) I will stay here again. Lovely, comfortable and felt like home

History House

This house is pre-civil war house. History just odes from it! The floors are original. The location is close to Cincy, Oh. and real close to the Ark Encounter. The bathrooms and showers are best we've ever had, including hotels and resorts. We'd stay here again if in the area.

We had a wonderful stay at Granny’s House - it was very comfortable and felt like we were visiting Grandma! The side porch was nice for morning coffee and eating al fresco. Very quiet neighborhood and close to the Ark Encounter. Look forward to another visit.

Nice Getaway

We enjoyed our stay so much! We booked so we could be close to the Ark Encounter (the Creation Museum is about 40 minutes away). Lawrence was wonderful and welcoming. We are so thankful we got to stay in a little sliver of history! We couldn’t recommend it enough.
