The house was very clean and felt very private. My wife said multiple times that this was her favorite VRBO we had stayed in! We visited the Ark Encounter which is just about 45 minutes away.

This is an absolutely beautiful home. Well appointed and very comfortable. I was sorry we could only stay for one night! Would love to return in the summer to utilize the fabulous deck and outdoor amenities! The host was very accommodating to our needs and I cannot be more complimentary. It is close to available restaurants, groceries and the interstate. Very secluded and quiet.

Home was very nice. We had a couple issues with outside cleanliness and dock deck was broken but it was quickly resolved by the management company who sent out 2 crews on a Sunday to pressure wash the outside and fix the dock. They even mowed the grass. Great place to stay. Would stay here again. Highly recommend. It is fairly remote which is nice if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle.

Beautiful!

Really enjoyed our stay! Very clean, high-quality finishes, amazing deck and secluded location. The nicest and most complete “information binder” that I’ve ever seen at a rental property, including all info about the house, activities in the surrounding area, menus for restaurants - a well thought out touch, shows the host’s attention to detail. Our family loved the America theme! 🇺🇸 Would definitely stay here again!

Quaint little home on the water! My family loved being off the beaten path. The home was perfect for a small family- very clean and offered everything for a quick trip away. It was a 50 minute drive to the Ark - so if you are visiting for this encounter, be mindful of the commute. However, it sure beat staying in a hotel!

Quiet spot on the water

Great location! Equal distance between Louisville, Lexington, and the Cincinnati airport. We were at all three. Also close to Ark Encounter and Kentucky Speedway. We loved afternoons on the big deck and two story boat house, then hanging out in the huge open concept first floor at night. Messaged the host during our stay twice and responses were fast and complete. All around great experience. Highly recommend.
