It was a perfect place to stay for our visit to the ark encounter and the creation museum. Clean and comfortable!

8.0 / 10.0

Great house the only suggestion would be room darkening curtains. Every time someone comes around the corner lights shine in the bedroom.

10.0 / 10.0

The house was well maintained and very clean and comfortable. Looked like newer appliances. Would definitely stay here again.

10.0 / 10.0

The property was just as described. Everything was clean and set up for our week stay. We enjoyed the location.

10.0 / 10.0

This was the perfect stay for our party of 5--right off the interstate, 30 minutes to The Creation Museum, 15 minutes to The Ark Encounter. Everything inside and outside has been newly updated. Very clean and comfortable. I would stay here again and recommend this property to others.

10.0 / 10.0

Our family of four adults and one child was very comfortable in this clean and spacious house. We found everything we needed to cook, relax, wash clothes and enjoy our visits to the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. Ideally located between the two attractions and plenty of amenities nearby.

10.0 / 10.0

House looks practically new. Everything was well kept and in good working order. We were in town seeing Ark Encounter, Creation Museum and a game in Cincinatti. The location was absolutely perfect for those things. Host was super helpful with everything, and the stay was overall fantastic. Was plenty spacious for 4 Adults and 2 children.

This house was beautiful and clean! Sick a nice and wonderful stay.

10.0 / 10.0

This home met all our needs. Very clean. Even had a two car garage we could pull in to. Very nice. Only suggestion we had was to maybe have some room darkening curtains put up on the bedroom windows to help block out the street light from across the street. Otherwise a great stay.

10.0 / 10.0

Everything was exactly as advertised. Our granddaughter commented how clean it was. We enjoyed our family time as we prepared to go to Noah’s Ark. I would highly recommend this property

10.0 / 10.0

Nice clean property that was perfect for 7 guests.

8.0 / 10.0

Loved it, especially the garage!! Busy little main street but that made getting around so easy. Would definitely stay again! Struggled with Spectrums bad service but it was taken care of right away.

10.0 / 10.0

The Blue Stone house was great for the us. It was homey, clean and very comfortable. Our host, Bryan, was quick to respond in all of our communications and was also extra accommodating. The beds were comfy with a nice selection of pillows! We will definitely choose Blue Stone again!

10.0 / 10.0

This home was clean, well-decorated, and uncluttered. It is the perfect distance for those looking to go to the ARK and also into Cincinnati during their visit. There is a good bit of traffic on the road in front of the house, so cars and trains can be heard from the front bedrooms. However, we used a sound machine app to help minimize the noise at night. It was also very nice to have a usable garage for parking!

10.0 / 10.0

The house is clean and well-stocked. Having the garage was a nice feature since it was raining when we arrived. Internet worked fine for streaming, and communication with the host was easy. It is close to the road & train, but we agreed the pro’s far outweighed that con. Cleanup & checkout were simple and not overly demanding. We would stay again.

10.0 / 10.0

The home was pristine and spacious for our group. There was only 1 step into the home, and the walk-in shower made it easy access for those with mobility restrictions. The host was wonderful! We are already making our reservation for next year!

10.0 / 10.0

Staying here was like staying in a brand new house. Everything was new and spotless. Great location halfway in between the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum.

10.0 / 10.0

My brother and niece and nephew and I stayed so that we could go and visit the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. The house was perfectly located in between the two places. The house was very clean and seemed new. It was just the right size for all of us to have a common area to hang out but also our own rooms as well. The kids enjoyed playing the board games that were left at the house. The only thing that was a little unpleasant was the street traffic and the train noise. It wasn't horrible, but I would recommend ear plugs or playing white noise on your cell phone. All in all we really enjoyed this house and would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

10.0 / 10.0

We were very pleased with the home. It was perfect for our 2 nights. Close to The Ark Encounter. Then enjoyed evenings playing games. Clean and had the basics we needed.

Very clean. Spacious and quiet. Was perfect for our one night stay while traveling. We would definitely stay again.

10.0 / 10.0

The property was the perfect place to stay as it was very close to the Ark Encounter. It was spacious and clean. There was a surprise of needing to strip the beds, start the washer and take out the trash before leaving.

10.0 / 10.0

We had a great stay. It was the perfect place for our mini vacation. The house was absolutely wonderful. Very well maintained and we loved the added bonus of having a garage attached as it was snowy and cold and we enjoyed not having to get in a cold car. Perfectly situated between The Creation Museum and The Ark Encounter.

10.0 / 10.0

Perfect location in the middle of the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. Clean, roomy and easy to access.

Overall really good stay- well maintained, clean comfortable and properly stocked. It was Nice to have a garage. The only downside was very bright lights outside and busy main road close to the house. The owner was very responsive and easy to work with.

10.0 / 10.0

We arrived after dark, but was able to park in the attached garage and off-load our luggage right into the house. The house appears to be new, and has the new carpet smell. The host was very accommodating as well, ensuring we had plenty of towels and supplies for the single night we were there, We relaxed for a while and had a good night's sleep. (The train in the distance wasn't noticeable after settling down for the night!) The next morning we enjoyed our bacon and pancake breakfast, then headed off for our Ark Encounter, only 15 minutes away, since the house is only a mile off I-75!

Our stay was very comfortable. The house was perfect for our family of 6. We were able to cook and relax after a visiting the Ark Encounter. Our grandkids loved the room with the twin beds. We also enjoyed exploring the little towns in that area.

The house was great, roomy and close to things in the area. We stopped to visit the Ark so it was really convenient. We played some of the board games that were provided and enjoyed some family time at the house
