This was a wonderful place for our family to stay for 4 nights while we visited the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. We loved the large dining room table that sat our whole group, and the fully stocked kitchen. To top it off, there were two dishwashers on the first floor which really helped with meal cleanup! Having a second kitchen upstairs was great as well. We couldn’t have been happier about this place and the location! Thanks so much!

The house was perfect- we had a very large group of people and we all fit. Communication was exceptional, when I messaged I received an answer quickly. If we come as a large group again this will be where we stay again!

Splendid Stay!
Our family stayed for a short weekend to visit the Ark Encounter. We were greeted by a historic home that has been remodeled beautifully.
Everyone had space to move, and we really enjoyed spending time together as a family.
We will definitely be suggesting this as a place for others to stay!

Great Family Venue
Our family and friends enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean and the space made it easy for multiple groups to have different activities. We enjoyed the disk golf and making smores on the fire pit. We even had some deer in backyard at night.

We stayed at the Simmons estate with a large group of family. The central area (kitchen and dining room) was amazing! The kitchen was well supplied with everything we needed to have our Turkey dinner! (Canadian Thansgiving). The video game machines were so much fun for the kids. We all had enough space. I hope that the owners plan to spruce up the outdoor space and add some comfy seating. The woods area behind the house was so much fun for the kids to explore. They built a fort.

Weekend retreat
We are a Bible study group, that is more like family, with ladies of varying ages and mobility abilities, and this restored, historic estate was wonderful for us!!! We greatly enjoyed our time together and we greatly appreciated the communication with the host when a minor DVD player issue came up, we also appreciated that he took the time to share a little bit about the history of the house and the area with us. We would definitely recommend this home to others!

Perfect for a crowd!
This truly is the perfect space for large families like ours. 20 family members in one house - no problem! There was plenty of room for everyone to join together or have time to themselves. Great location if you are looking to visit THE ARK. It is right around the corner. Host was quick with responses when we reached out to confirm details. Overall this was a wonderful getaway for our family.

Exactly what we were looking for
I was bringing a group of teenagers and chaperones to see the ark from out of state. This location was perfect for separating the boys and girls of the group with the upper and lower floors. The large kitchen and living room was a great spot to meet and have group times together. Great communication from Jeremiah the whole time. Thanks so much!

Great house but with roll-away cots called twin beds
We (13 senior adults - church group) were very pleased with the property overall. We were disappointed that the 4 twin beds listed on the site were 3 roll-away cots. Due to this some of the female guests had to share beds. Also my room was missing pillow cases and we were short a few towels. The extra towels and linens were delivered promptly.

Great house close to Ark
We had a great week at this home! We were able to walk to the adorable downtown area each day and check out the different shops. The location is close to a nice park for kids and also the Ark. The home was well furnished and stocked with amenities that came in handy. We learned this too late in our stay but if you run out of anything like toilet paper or paper towels message the host and he will get those items to you.
The listing does say there is a lot of acres and a pond to walk to but the small grass area is on a steep sloop and the walk to the pond is thru a dense forest area which wasn't an enjoyable walk with little ones and lots of mosquitoes so I wouldn't say it is a lot of land to have kids roam and play on. We spent most of our time at the local park or the kids played in the parking lot area (but make sure they are supervised bc it's on a busy corner.) There is an outdoor patio area with a grill that was awesome to sit and enjoy and also a patio attached to the house for the adults to enjoy in the evenings.
All in all this is a fabulous property and great host! Thanks for having us.

Very clean and comfortable.
The house was very clean and comfortable for our group of 20. They could certainly add supplies to complete the house when 20 people are staying.
There were only two washcloths and some paper towels in the kitchen. No dish towels or dish clothes.
The kitchen pans were some type of non-stick material and very scratched. Stainless steal would be a much better option.
There was not enough seating in the kitchen/dinning area to seat us all. We carried a table down from the second floor, however it was very rickety and we were nervous it would hold up.
There were four twin cots, but no blankets to be found, only sheets.
We found a port-a-crib in the kitchen closet, but again, no bedding.
The beds were very comfortable! I meant to look at the brand for our next purchase.
The location of the house was easy to get to off the expressway.
The back door would not stay shut unless you used the deadbolt, it was a very windy weekend so it kept blowing open. And with kids playing outside it wasn’t convenient to keep unlocking the door for them.
All in all we were happy with our stay. Although the host was not accommodating on early arrival or late departure. We even offered to pay for extra time. They did say we could extend our stay another night, but not a couple hours.
I did reach out to the host while we were at the house and they responded quickly. That was nice.
Our weekend was a success, however I would not use this host for the next time.
