Excellent clean good beds however, living room couches should be replaced. Otherwise excellent
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
We can't say enough of the awesome experience we had with VRBO and staying at Arkstone Retreat! This was actually our first time using VRBO too! Our unit was so clean and had everything you would need to have a relaxing stay. Beds were comfortable and bath was spotless! You can't find a more perfect place to "pivot" from for visiting the Ark, the Creation Museum or even a quick visit into Cincinnati! We found all our favorite restaurants too! Communication with our representatives were always quick and so helpful! I wish I could give a "6" star review...our stay was perfect!
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
Everything was exactly as expected!
6 / 10Average·Mar 2025
We were surprised that the unit was one of two units on the bottom of a 4-unit complex (permanent residences were in the top two units.) Young, early rising children who like to run resided above our unit, and we think at least one member wore high heels. Upon our first meal at the dining room table, one of the children was up-ended when the chair collapsed (no injury beyond pride.) At shower/bath time, the water did not drain well. (You may use your imagination.)Gratefully, the mgmt had the chair repaired and unclogged the tub. All in all, we accommodated. The unit was close to the sites we wanted to see, and since we mostly needed the place to crash after long days, it met our needs.
