I have been to many Vrbo's in my traveling but this one will ALWAYS be the most memorable. Im 69 years old and this little cottage took me down memory lane. The moment I walked through the door I felt all the tension of traveling disappear and a sense of calm and being safe replace it. I could write more but you really need to plan a visit to experience it for yourself. The horses and calico cat were cherries on top of a beautiful experience.

Little White Cottage

Best place to go to the Ark Encounter.Everything you could need is provided by the most gracious hosts. The decor was so pretty of antiques. The horses in the back you and the cats on the back porch was a bonus.

Perfect Retreat

Lovely, well appointed cottage with every kind consideration. The quaintness, the view, the birds and horses, and the spectacular sunrises made our stay beyond expectations.

Awesome property! We really enjoyed our stay. It was super convenient to get to the Ark Encounter and a reasonable distance to drive to the Creation Museum. The quaint cottage-like home was clean and wonderfully decorated and had all the comforts and conveniences of home. The outdoor space was nice as well. The hosts were very responsive when contacted. We highly recommend staying at this property.

Just right for Ark and science museum

We loved all the antiques, the convenience of dry falls for food and five minutes from the Ark. We just wished that it had a central AC instead of a window unit. I appreciate the host, they were very nice people and if you message them they will answer you back very quickly. Overall we had a nice stay. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.

Fantastic!!!

We loved our stay! The home was put together with love and care. Tammy and Alan are great. The view was spectacular and the horses were just an added bonus. There were hidden treasures everywhere you looked. We enjoyed hiking, the Ark, a couple museums, and a laugh with Tammy and Alan, I know I will never forget this wonderfully fantastic trip!

About the host

Hosted by Allan & Tammy

We discovered guest houses (vacation rentals) when we went out of town after trying bed-and-breakfasts & before that motels. We found them to be more comfortable with more space and more relaxing. We have lived in this neighborhood with the cottage for over 25 years now and enjoy the rural feel while still being in town.

Why they chose this property

We don't want to be the busiest by being the least expensive. We do want to offer the cleanest and most relaxing accommodations available in our area. We also tried to put everything you may need in the cottage, so you don't have to worry about anything....except relaxing.

What makes this property unique

You can cook meals in the kitchen. you can do laundry if you need to. You can roast wieners and marshmallows over the open fire pit while you are watching the horses come right up to the fence. Or you can just sit on the deck and enjoy the birds and squirrels and all of Gods glory!
