Perfect for Families!
We stayed here for a trip to the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. The property could not have been more perfect for our family of 5! It was ideal location, close to both attractions and also plenty to do/eat nearby. We weren’t able to enjoy the backyard much due to weather, but plan to book again when warmer. So we can.

Just Book Backyard Wanderland...You won't regret it!!
We had an amazing stay at Backyard Wanderland! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and fully stocked with everything we needed to feel right at home. It was spacious enough to comfortably fit our family of seven.The large 10-person round dining table was the perfect gathering spot for family meals. Our kids absolutely LOVED the outdoor space! The two playsets, loft-style playhouse with electricity, basketball court, firepit (stocked with wood), and walking path kept our kids (ages 9 to 1) entertained for hours.Although the house is near a main road, its thoughtful positioning and landscaping created a private and peaceful environment. With five kids, the road noise wasn’t a concern and was only noticeable when emergency vehicles passed with sirens.The location was ideal—just a short drive to the Creation Museum and close to the Ark Encounter.Josh and Terra were fantastic hosts—responsive, thoughtful, and welcoming. We appreciated their extra touches, like coordinating a DoorDash delivery for supplies and salting the driveway and walkways before snowfall.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Backyard Wanderland to anyone looking for a family-friendly, relaxing getaway. Thank you, Josh and Terra, for helping make our trip unforgettable!

Great Stay!
We loved our stay at this location! The playground was awesome for our kids, unfortunately the weather was too cold for them to really enjoy it. You have to watch for the driveway, it was easy to miss just because of the busy street out front, but once we found it, it was great. House was awesome. Perfect for our family. Recommend this location for your family getaway!

Great central location
This home was beautiful with plenty of room for our large family. The kitchen had everything we needed. Beautiful back yard with playset for the kids. Mild downside was closeness to street and could hear cars driving past but the family did provide earplugs in each room.
We would definitely stay here again :)

Fabulous!
Wow! Tara and Josh‘s property was fabulous! Everything was totally clean, well stocked, and the accommodations were bright, cheerful, and very spacious. We had plenty of room to stretch out and have family time with all nine of us. On our last day, we had eight cousins come over for a short visit, and they all thoroughly enjoyed the HUGE backyard, especially the basketball court! Josh and Tara were fabulous hosts and were immediately available and SO accommodating with any needs that we had. We would DEFINITELY stay in this home again! It was fabulous!

Comfortable with everything we needed
Traveling with young children isn’t always easy, but the Backyard Wanderland had everything we needed and more to make it a comfortable and enjoyable stay! The backyard was incredible, the house and property and everything inside are managed beautifully, and my kids didn’t want to leave at the end of the trip. We plan to come back to visit the Ark and Creation Museum again, and would stay and this beautiful home again as well.
Thank you for a great visit to Kentucky!

This house is spacious and well maintained. It is on a busy road but set back and it wasn’t a big deal. Backyard is like a private park. Little kids would love it.Location is convenient to the Ark and creation museum.

Wonderful, turnkey home for family gathering
We rented the home for a family get together for a college graduation. 8 adults spent the weekend with two more adult guests for a daytime visit for a total of 10 people in the home. I was thoroughly impressed with the property! There was plenty of parking for the six vehicles we had and room for even more if we would have needed it. There were enough plates, bowls, silverware and everything needed to have each person use multiple plates without having to wash them. We had City BBQ delivered and Kroger was nearby for grocery items. All 10 of us easily fit around the huge family dinner table, which was actually the reason we booked this property over others. I'd highly recommend this property to anyone that wants to have a family get together. There wasn't a single issue we had with the property and felt lucky to have had such a good experience. 10/10 for sure!

Great Property! ....with two little caveats.
This property was great! Plenty of room for our family......great farmhouse charm. And the kids LOVED the backyard. There's a playhouse, a playground with plenty of equipment, and even a concrete basketball court. The deck was wonderful, and there's even a firepit area, though we didn't use it. There were only two downsides, that you need to be aware of before you stay.
1. The highway beside the house. It's 4 lane, and VERY busy, and VERY loud. Thankfully, in the backyard we didn't notice it that much and the owner has made the backyard feel very secluded. But at night, in the bedrooms on the front of the house, you do hear lots of loud trucks and motorcycles. The owner has thankfully provided white noise machines and earplugs, so I commend them on the effort to offset the noise.
2. The age of the house. Most people will love the fact that it's old, and I think it provides a lot of charm, but just be aware, that there are a few things that go along with an old house. Bathroom doors were very hard to shut and were loud when you opened them. Also the downstairs bathroom was so narrow, that taller people may have issues. These things probably won't bother most people, you just need to know what you are getting.
With all that said, for our family the house was great, the kids loved it, and I'd highly recommend.

We're Josh and Terra. Family of six. We love creating spaces where large families can create memorable experiences together.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
This was our personal home for many years. We lovingly restored it as we raised our 4 young children. They loved to play in the backyard, imaginations running wild. We knew it would be the perfect spot for other families who wanted a place to stay where the kiddos could play outside while still being close to many nearby attractions.
この宿泊施設の特徴
The inside is carefully crafted with all the little touches you don't normally see in a vacation rental. You instantly feel cozy. Meanwhile the outside is loaded with fun things to do all within a fenced-in space. Playgrounds, basketball fire pit, deck, paved walking track, children's playhouse. Every convenience you need from grocery to entertainment to dining is all just minutes away.
