The perfect place for visiting The Ark and Creation Museum.

We visited The Ark and the Creation Museum, and Mona and Charlie’s home was perfect. It’s on the same road as the Ark and a half hour ride on Rt. 75 North to the Creation Museum. The sun rose over the Ark in our back yard. We cooked on the grill and ate on the deck while the sun set. We even witnessed the Northern Lights. It’s quiet, clean, stocked with everything you need and in a safe, country setting. We were so happy with the rental. It made our visit to Kentucky perfect.

Enjoyed the wonderful views & cool breezes at this lovely hilltop home

Our family had a great time staying here. It was nice after being at the Ark Encounter all day to only have to drive a short distance and be home. We could see the Ark from the backyard yet we felt like we were out away from it all in the rolling hills of Kentucky with incredible views as well. I really liked how clean the house was and we have no complaints. The showers and bathrooms were really clean, with nice thick hotel style towels. It had a very comfortable feeling to it and was very relaxing looking out at the amazing views around you. I enjoyed sitting at both porches the best (the front porch is always cool and shaded, even on hot days) and my husband really enjoyed the comfy lazy boy chairs. My kids thought it was cool they each had their own tv in their rooms, and they had plenty of room to play in the yard. The front yard starts to slope down into a hill and road but the backyard is flat and big. Nice little touches like cozy blankets and snacks and water upon arrival were very nice. I liked how we got to meet the owners who live next door; they are very sweet people who have lived in the area all their lives. Lastly, the Ark is incredible and we can’t wait to go back to Williamstown again!!

Nice stay could be improved

Property is a little tired. 3rd bedroom has no closet or dresser for clothing. House was clean. The house needs new lights that are brighter or able to adjust the brightness.

Better than a Luxury Hotel

This property was one of the best we have stayed in. It was CLEAN!! Very nice furnishings, homey and comfortable. The owners went above & beyond what we would expect to have furnished. It's right down the road from the Ark (maybe 3 miles) and very close to many restaurants and stores. We are recommending this property to any friends that are planning on traveling to that area.

Pristine Stay

Our vacation was focused on seeing the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. My husband and I along with my dad and his girlfriend stayed at this home. The Creation Museum is about 40 minutes away and the Ark is about 5 minutes. You can see the Ark from the backyard. We loved our stay here. All the amenities you need are provided, towels, beds comfortable and dressed, all the kitchen items provided and washer and dryer, etc. Very comfortable and quiet. The view from front and back yard were beautiful and peaceful. We saw cows in the morning next door. Having my coffee in the morning outside was a great way to start the day. We loved our stay here!

This property was a delight to stay in. It was a beautiful location and the home was spotless and welcoming the minute you stepped in the door. The views were spectacular and the hosts (Charlie and Mona) were so kind and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this property to my friends and anyone else who visits the Lexington area.

View of the Ark

The property was as described. It was clean and well-stocked. We were surprised that we could see the ark from the back porch. My only suggestion is to put some up some way to shade the front bay window at night. I did not like people who drove by being able to look into the living room. The road wasn't very busy but the added privacy would have been nice.
