3 Miles to Ark! Basement Playroom with Video Arcade!

Perfect location and size for our family with kids visiting the Ark Encounter and local attractions. Nice to have the extra space and the amenities.

We enjoyed our stay here. The house is nicely laid out for families with kids. The basement game room is so fun!

The coffee maker needs to be descaled, and the ceiling vent to the fan in the bathroom needs to be cleaned.

PROS: Clean, well kept home close to the highway with easy access to anything you would be traveling to the area for. Host communicates quickly and has reasonable expectations (start the dishwasher, take out the trash) of their guests.CONS: Immediately upon arriving, the home had a very strong odor of cat urine. It lacks sufficient venting in the kitchen, so cooking is difficult. It has poor insulation and likely an undersized A/C system that struggled to keep the temperature within 10* of the set temp. The "game room" is a "musty" basement with a strong odor that has a small table, a tv, a couch and some board games with 2 "mini-arcade" games attached to the wall. The staircase is not safe for young kids, with a steep slope and a severe fall-risk to the side of the stairs without a rail. The windows had wasps/hornet nests in between them (interior windows separate from exterior windows) and significant bug activity (spiders and ants) in and around the home. The home backs up to the highway and a nearby railroad; train horn can be heard quite loudly from within the home.
