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.

Enjoyed the area and ease of traveling to the wedding venue. Home was thoughtfully stocked with anything we may have needed and the host responded when we touched base with her. Would recommend :)

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.

Perfect location for airport, city center, Ark and Creation Museum visit. My children wanted to move in forever, especially after rolling down the hills in the backyard. Very clean, lots of towels, attentive host and large kitchen for family dining. It had everything a family needs. If it had laundry in home, it would be 100% perfect! We would definitely stay here again if we are able to return. Thanks for a memorable visit!

The place was clean, location to surrounding activities was perfect, and the decorating was up to date. Light fixture in the bathroom did not work. It was spacious. The Kuerig and kitchen was our favorite. Unfortunately, the house smelled like old smoke. We all have allergies and a chronically Ill daughter. We had to open all the windows and keep her out of the living room. Our eyes were itchy and nasal drainage. Our daughter had a asthma attack. Most of her time she had to spend in the bedroom where we placed a fan in the window or the kitchen. There is an old fireplace in the main L/R. With a bag of Baking soda in it. Curtains and couch smelled of smoke. Unfortunately, this really should be mentioned in the description for the elderly and allergy populations. There was a small air filter near the fireplace but it did nothing.

A DEFINITE 5 star review!! What a great place! Much better than a hotel any day. We found the Cottage exactly what we needed for our trips to the Creation and Ark Museum about 20-40 minutes away. It was Ultra clean and provided everything we needed. We appreciated the AC and fans in the bedrooms a welcome relief from the heat/humidity. The neighborhood was quiet-no train sounds, airport sounds, sirens, just a nice quiet atmosphere. We felt safe and comfortable in and outside the Cottage. Can't say enough, but recommend the cottage for anyone wanting a great place to stay, with or without children. We stayed three nights and it was our relaxing home away from home. Wonderful hostess, Stephanie, makes it all happen smoothly at the Cottage. We would definitely stay here again!

The house was great we loved it nice and clean, Updates were nice was disappoint in in the appearance of the outside. I would recommend that the yard and trimming be done before the next guest and trim the bush on the side back. We were four senior people (68-84) and the living room furniture was not very comfortable for us need arms on chairs to get up easier. The two guys would have preferred recliners so they could put their feet up (poor circulation) LOL. But this is just us older persons. We thought it was a great place and will recommend it to everyone. Thank you so much..

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

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.

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.

We were really happy with our weekend stay at this centrally located home. This home was the right number of bedrooms and the right price to compete with getting a couple of hotel rooms. I prefer this, because it's much more comfortable in our downtime. The location is very convenient; especially, for anything in the Florence area. It seems to be a pretty quiet area, at least it was for our stay. There are some twisty roads that you need to navigate to get back to the neighborhood, but not too big of a deal. I really appreciated that there were plenty of supplies, particularly towels. Although we didn't need any more than normal, that cannot always be said. I've also had instances where we rented a place, cooked a big family dinner, and ended up with insufficient dish detergent. All that to say, it's really nice that we didn't have to think about anything other than enjoying our time. The decor was nice and uncluttered. There are two bedrooms. A master with a queen has a very firm mattress, and the other has a queen with a twin bunk. I was told the queen was soft and the bunk was firm. It could be a factor for you if you have a limiting condition. My only request would be to have a slightly later check-out time. 10am isn't unusual, but 11am provides a lot more flexibility. Late checkout wasn't an option due to us being the 1st on the cleaning schedule. Finally, the owner was great at communicating throughout the stay, and there were no unusual rules or requests.

I really appreciated that there were plenty of supplies, particularly towels. Although we didn't need any more than normal, that cannot always be said. I've also had instances where we rented a place, cooked a big family dinner, and ended up with insufficient dish detergent. All that to say, it's really nice that we didn't have to think about anything other than enjoying our time. The decor was nice and uncluttered. There are two bedrooms. A master with a queen has a very firm mattress, and the other has a queen with a twin bunk. I was told the queen was soft and the bunk was firm. It could be a factor for you if you have a limiting condition. My only request would be to have a slightly later check-out time. 10am isn't unusual, but 11am provides a lot more flexibility. Late checkout wasn't an option due to us being the 1st on the cleaning schedule. Finally, the owner was great at communicating throughout the stay, and there were no unusual rules or requests.

It was a birthday trip to the Arc and Museum and the house is settled almost between the two venues. The house is adorable, very clean and having two bathrooms is a big bonus. The neighborhood is quiet and a large grocery chain is just minutes away.

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!!!

My husband, sister-in-law, & I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Cottage Near Ark/Creation Museum! Everything we could possibly need was provided! There was a very pleasant, clean odor that greeted us upon every entry - not strong at all, just nice & comforting. We loved the near location to restaurants & retail areas, to “the big city” of Cincinnati, the airport, and The Ark Encounter, the focus of our visit. Yet the house was situated in a beautiful rural setting. We could drive to everywhere we wanted/needed to go in 30 minutes or less! If ever back in the area, we would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location for airport, city center, Ark and Creation Museum visit. My children wanted to move in forever, especially after rolling down the hills in the backyard. Very clean, lots of towels, attentive host and large kitchen for family dining. It had everything a family needs. If it had laundry in home, it would be 100% perfect! We would definitely stay here again if we are able to return. Thanks for a memorable visit!

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.

The place was clean, location to surrounding activities was perfect, and the decorating was up to date. Light fixture in the bathroom did not work. It was spacious. The Kuerig and kitchen was our favorite. Unfortunately, the house smelled like old smoke. We all have allergies and a chronically Ill daughter. We had to open all the windows and keep her out of the living room. Our eyes were itchy and nasal drainage. Our daughter had a asthma attack. Most of her time she had to spend in the bedroom where we placed a fan in the window or the kitchen. There is an old fireplace in the main L/R. With a bag of Baking soda in it. Curtains and couch smelled of smoke. Unfortunately, this really should be mentioned in the description for the elderly and allergy populations. There was a small air filter near the fireplace but it did nothing.

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.

Beautiful kitchen and dining room and nice place to chat or read in living room. So close to Creation and the Ark basically right in the middle of both of them. The host was very quick on getting back to us with answers to any questions we had. Stephanie was kind and considerate regarding my special needs. We would recommend this little home

We came to see the play at the ark, home was well stocked, neat, and clean. The keurig didnt serve hot coffee, and the other coffee thing put coffee grinds in the coffee, they didnt have a regular coffee pot. We bought one for us to use. The beds were not comfortable. But overall the house had everything else you could want and more.

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

As stated, this rental property is in the perfect location for visiting the Ark and the Creation Museum. I had unfortunately encountered a couple of unique situations, that were highly unusual, and were promptly addressed by the host to the best of her ability. Communication was excellent, and everything else was perfect. The minor unique issue that I encountered is the only reason I didn't leave 5 stars. Otherwise it was worthy of 5 stars. I plan to visit the Ark and Creation Museum again sometime, and I will be looking for this rental home again. Also, there is much to do near by, and it's very close to Cincinnati. Thanks, Stephanie!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this property. It was very clean and tastefully decorated, making us feel at home right away. Kitchen was stocked with anything we would need to prepare a meal even though we chose to eat out. There are many options nearby and closeness to the Ark and Creation Museum was a bonus. The host was responsive and made check-in a seamless process.
