We were traveling with our four children ranging in age from 7-21, and my parents, on a family trip from home in the UP of Michigan, to Nashville, Gatlinburg and finally to the Ark Encounter on the way back home. This was our third VRBO home of the trip, and was by far our favorite! Mind you, we live on a farm, so country life is not foreign to us, but this home is just so relaxing and beautiful. It comfortably slept all 8 of us, the beds were comfy and clean, and even though the home is small, there was plenty of room for all of us. We enjoyed swimming in the pond, visits with Jack the donkey, watching the train go by, bonfires in the evening.... we had everything we needed! We went to The Ark Encounter one whole day (highly recommend), and hung out at the house the next day. The front porch is great for coffee in the morning, and the back deck for grilling at night. Book this home, you won't regret it!
