All 7 of us fit perfectly! The cabin was clean and had all the basic amenities, along with a few great extras! The property owner brought us fire wood for the fire pit and my children had s’mores every night! I counted cows of the porch every morning and evening! Close to the Ark and Creation Museum. It was quiet and my kids had room to run!

The Little House on Dairy was conveniently located between the ARC Encounter and the Creation Museum. We enjoyed our quiet, peaceful evenings after visiting both. The view was wonderful, and we enjoyed our morning visits from the cows. The house was cozy and met all of our needs. Thank you for being so prompt in fixing our air conditioner situation. We enjoyed our relaxing stay!!
