Top rated by guests
Your private pool under open Kentucky sky —
this is the version of the Ark Encounter trip nobody
posts about, because they don't want anyone else to find it.
Cook, eat, and hang out all in the same sightline — the open first floor flows from kitchen island to dining table to living room, so no one ever feels cut off from the group.
Stand up here and see the whole main floor at once. The wood ceiling runs all the way to the peak — the first thing guests notice when they walk in.
Cook for 16 without feeling like you're working
in shifts. The island seats four, the counters are wide, and everything is stocked.
Full stainless appliances, granite countertops, every pot you need. The kitchen keeps up with your headcount.

About this house rental

Summary:

Seven bedrooms, five bathrooms, 16 guests — and the Ark Encounter five minutes down the road. That's the setup. But what makes this place is the moment you step out back and realize the private pool, hot tub, and fire pit are all waiting, with rolling Kentucky hills stretching out behind them. No checkout line for the pool. No waiting for the hot tub. Your whole family at full capacity, at your own pace, on your own 14 acres.



The Space:

ABOUT THIS SPACE

Your group of 16 has seven private bedrooms spread across three floors — king

suites, a queen room, and queen bunk beds so everyone from grandparents to little

kids has a space that actually fits.

First Floor:

• Master Suite — king bed, walk-in shower, soaking tub, private ensuite. The trip

organizer claims this one.

Second Floor:

• King Bedroom 1 — king bed, shared hallway bath with tub and shower

• King Bedroom 2 — king bed, same shared bath

• King Bedroom 3 — king bed, same shared bath

• Queen Bedroom — queen bed, shared bath

Basement:

• Basement King Suite — king bed, private walk-in shower ensuite, quietest room in

the home.

• Bunk Room — two sets of queen-over-queen bunk beds, private ensuite with walk-in

shower. The kids settle the top-bunk debate in about 30 seconds.

Five full bathrooms means no morning traffic jams. Each floor is self-contained.

The main floor opens wide — kitchen, dining, and living room flow together so 16

people can share a meal without splitting into shifts. The kitchen has full stainless

appliances, granite countertops, a large island with four bar stools, and everything

needed to cook for a crowd. Dining table seats eight comfortably. The living room

anchors the space with a gas fireplace and enough seating for the whole group.

Downstairs, the basement game room changes the energy: ping pong table, board

games, a 75" TV with PlayStation 5. Kids disappear into it at 9pm and adults follow by

10. A second lounge area in the basement is there for anyone who wants something

quieter.

Washer and dryer on-site — essential for groups staying multiple nights.

LOCATION AND WHAT'S NEARBY

You're in Williamstown, Kentucky — about 40 miles south of Cincinnati, in the rolling

hills of Grant County.

• Ark Encounter — 5 minutes (2.3 miles). Full-scale Noah's Ark, 510 feet long. Plan 3-

5 hours; buy tickets in advance for peak summer dates.

• Creation Museum — 35 minutes via I-75 North. Pairs naturally with the Ark as a twoday itinerary.

• Downtown Cincinnati — 45 minutes north. Findlay Market, the Cincinnati Art

Museum (free), Smale Riverfront Park.

• Kentucky Bourbon Trail — Buffalo Trace in Frankfort (50 min), Wild Turkey and Four

Roses in Lawrenceburg (40 min).

• Big Bone Lick State Historic Site — 25 minutes northwest. Fossil beds, live bison

herd, and prehistory that's actually interesting for kids.

• Williamstown Lake — 10 minutes. Swimming, fishing, kayaking in summer.

• General Butler State Resort Park — 25 minutes east. Golf, lake swimming, hiking, onsite restaurant.



WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR



Multi-generational families — grandparents on the first floor with the master suite, parents upstairs, kids in the basement bunk room. Everyone has their own floor;

everyone ends up at the fire pit at 9pm.

Church groups and ministry trips — the Ark Encounter is five minutes away. This

property has hosted multiple faith-based family groups and is built for the schedule:

daytime at the venue, evenings back at the pool.

Large friend groups — the outdoor stack (pool, hot tub, fire pit, outdoor lounge) is

built for socializing. Add the open-concept main floor and the game room and you

have 16 people busy all weekend without splitting up.

Sports travel groups — Cincinnati is 45 minutes north for Reds games, Bengals

games, and UC events. Free parking for 8 vehicles on-site.

Parents planning milestone trips — birthday weekends, graduation getaways, end-ofyear blowouts. Pool, game room with PS5, playground, and the Ark five minutes away

makes this an easy yes for any age.

Property was awesome and Seth was easy to work with! Recommend for anyone visiting Lexington.
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
The house was beautiful and clean, setting was stunning, and the host was an excellent communicator. There are a few things worth noting that we were unaware of when booking. We would stay again despite these things, but would prepare differently. 1. We thought this would be a beautiful place to take walks, but instructions in the home explicitly prohibit walks along the driveway for neighbor privacy. 2. The pool is only 4ft deep at the deepest, this was disappointing for the older kids. 3. The house is bare bones in terms of amenities, there weren't any board games, cards, etc. highly limited supply of consumables, not even bedding or blankets. 4. There are train tracks, in the distance, but are visible and audible from the house and run nearly constantly. We didn't mind, but would be good to know. 5. You will hear every single footstep and conversation from the main level to the basement. Do not put your light sleepers down there.
