Our stay was short but filled with a lot of fun. The location of the cottage was perfect as we had things to do both north and south. Communication was great, as well as the cleanliness and decor of the home.

The Title for My Review
This is our second stay with this host and property. Both times were excellent, non-eventful stays with prompt communication from the host that included all the information needed. All the essentials that you would expect are present.For Future Renters:The driveway is one car-width and you'll park in the back tucked up by the house. It may be a little awkward for some to get into a good position to avoid blocking the driveway which would restrict access to the detached garage/separate apartment (not part of the rented property). You should contact the host and make sure you're not going to have a problem if you have multiple cars or something quite large.The television has guest mode which allows you to hook up your accounts. The accounts should get auto-cleared based on the stay schedule if you forget to manually remove them.

Great central location for Creation Museum/Ark/Airport
We had a wonderful stay. The host was very communicative about what to expect. The house was super clean and well appointed. We were traveling to both the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter, and the house was in between both of them which was very convenient! We would definitely stay here again!!!

Stephanie is a marvelous proactive host with a cozy home to share. We loved everything about the house - beds and linens were top notch. Kitchen was well supplied with all of our needs. Stephanie was always a step ahead of us and I appreciated that. If you are heading to northern Kentucky, choose this location.

Great stay
Overall perfect stay for a short visit to the ark encounter and the creation museum Perfect location between the two and if we had time we would have visited Ohio since it was so close Only thing is bathrooms are super small Bath tub may need a grip bar Mattress in the guest room was great (even the floor one) but the mattress in the master does have a dip in it on both sides Also you may want to get an ottoman for the feet especially after a long day of walking We appreciated the ice in the freezer and the filtered water in the fridge

Felt right at home.
Stephanie made this experience top notch. The home and accommodations where great and all we needed for a family of 6. Well furnished and very clean and cozy was how we felt during our stay. Also, her knowledge of the area and where to send us for groceries, dining out, and local hot spots made us feel like we already knew the area. The home location made for an easy (30 minute or less) trip south the Ark Encounter or north up to the Creation Museum and Cincinnati. All in all a great stay and a great host. Would love to return some day.

Upon arriving we found the property clean. The home is beautifully decorated. Check in process was easy. It was a great location for visiting the Ark Encounter and the Cincinnati Reds game. There are plenty of restaurants close by for some great food. We are happy with our stay.

Lovely cottage
Stellar experience with this rental. Cottage is in a quiet and easily accessible location, yet close to restaurants and shopping. The Interstate is only a few miles away. The house was immaculate and well-stocked. The beds had memory foam mattresses and comfy linens. Plenty of towels for all guests. I highly recommend this property.
