Home close to civilization with a country feel
We enjoyed the many amenities and friendly host of this house “in the country” but minutes from fine dining, local Walmart, coffee, the Ark encounter and Creation Museum. Overall, a great time was had and the location was really a good fit for our family

Convenient to Attractions
Close to the ark encounter and not too far from the Cincinnati Zoo. Place was very clean. The bed was a little too firm for my liking. I would also recommend to the owner a blackout curtain is needed at the end of the house where the streetlight is.
