This house was a great place to stay. The accommodations were perfect and they had everything we needed. We had plenty of space yet it was very cozy. It was very clean which is a big plus for me. I would highly recommend this house. We were there for the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter but also went to Rabbit Hash. Bonus the fall festival was going on while we were there.

About the host

Hosted by Dan Hitzfield

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Petersburg with our two children and choose to make this quiet little town our home. This is a great advantage to our customers because we are so close. We can easily help you out with any of your needs and answer any questions.
We reside in the “Berkshire house” which was constructed around 1928 from the Brick of the old distillery building. Dan’s family has lived in Petersburg for 5 generations, so needless to say we are vested in our community. When traveling ourselves, we often stay in a vacation rental. We find this to be the best and most affordable choice for our family and we think that you will too. So we hope to welcome you to our community. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.

Why they chose this property
