We were in town for the Ark and Creation museum and loved staying here. Everything was super clean, it was easy to check in, and we were extremely happy with our experience. We definitely recommend this spot.
The property was clean, nicely furnished and quiet. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. I was in the area for the Ark Encounter and the Creation museum and this was conveniently located between the two. I would definitely recommend a stay here.
We loved staying at the Forestview Retreat! It was clean, cozy, and close to our destinations at the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. The hosts were very friendly and we’d love to return if we come this way again.
Clean, peaceful, and cozy. Nice location a few minutes from the city between Creation Museum and Ark Encounter. Cincinnati zoo and other options quick drive too. Easy check in and great host.
My wife and I stayed for two nights, and we wish we could have stayed longer. The apartment offers privacy and solitude. We will definitely stay here again.
This was the perfect property for our anniversary trip. It offered a lot of privacy in a quiet neighborhood. And being an excellent midpoint between the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter is no exaggeration. We also enjoyed it being relatively close to a lot of great local restaurants. The host even provided great recommendations for us to try out! We highly recommend this property!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this quiet neighborhood. The studio apartment was very clean and the back deck was a nice place to sit and read. We visited Cincinnati and also the Ark Encounter and spent our evenings and nights relaxing at this great apartment. Highly recommended!
We really enjoyed our stay—beautiful location!!
Close to Ark and Creation Museum which we would recommend.
Apartment was very nice, clean, appropriately stocked, and in a peaceful country neighborhood.
Great location for Creation Museum and Ark Encounter
This cozy apartment suited our needs perfectly while we visited the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. It is centrally located to both. The area is just beautiful! The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed. The hosts, Reta and Dan, were so very friendly! We highly recommend staying here if you are in the area.
The property was beautiful and immaculately maintained. We felt safe and relaxed. The patio was a highlight of our stay where we enjoyed many cups of coffee and tea in the cool mornings and evenings. The drive to the apartment was picturesque and peaceful - no traffic! Easy to get to the Creation museum and Ark, as well as shops and restaurants. We would return in a heartbeat.
This was the perfect location to visit the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter. It has amazing view of owners vast property. Loft was clean, quiet, and had everything that you will need for a home-like stay. We enjoyed our stay very much.
Cozy, clean apartment in a quiet, beautiful rural setting, but close to everything you need or want. The property is beautifully landscaped and the owner kind and friendly and has thought of all the little details to make your stay enjoyable.
