Beautiful countryside location
We chose this property because of it's proximity to the Ark Experience & Creation museum along with the pool table for our teens and large enough for a party of 10 and our family dog. The well stocked kitchen has a huge dining table that fit us all. They have a nice deck off the back where I could sit while the dog explored the hillside. There was a movable fire pit but we did not use it because of rain. The property is fairly private and the surrounding area is very pretty. One thing to note is the downstairs bedroom is open to the hallway but if you are a family with small kids this could be perfect.with the adjoining bunk room. While there are plenty of suppies such as toilet paper, hand soap ect. and you will not need to bring even an extra blanket, there is no washer or dryer. We would definitely choose this place over again. The decor is super cute and it is a comfortable place to relax upstair or downstairs. It is also fairly close to Cincinnati so we did a day at the Market and there is a free Art museum we all want more time at. The city was really nice with so many murals and shops. This property is managed by Evolve so we were in direct contact with the manager instead of messaging through the VRBO app. She was very responsive once I realized she was my contact for all our needs instead of just housekeeping.It was very clean!a great fit with the kids bedroom riga
