This is beautiful home. The website is very accurate about its amenities! My family enjoyed every minute we were there. Everyone slept well on the Temper Pedic mattresses. It was very clean and well maintained! I would definitely choose this house again

Really loved this property and the owners were very kind and responded to texts quickly! The ONLY downfall is we expected the entire home but the family lives in the lower level. I do believe that should be made completely clear, and the entire home should NOT be listed on the property. With that being said the home is stunning and we loved our time at Anam Cara!

We had our whole family on this trip. It was very comfortable and met our needs. Probably the one thing that was slightly negative was that one adult couple had to sleep on the lower bunk bed with thinner mattresses which was less comfortable than the regular adult beds. It would have been nice if they had had better mattresses. But the whole experience was quite pleasant. Thank you for your home being open!

Beautiful Home and Location
Our stay was wonderful. The communication when needed was quick and resulted in us having a fantastic stay with the owners providing us with anything we needed! Definitely recommend. The property is beautiful with a wonderful back yard the kids played in and the house was spacious enough for our 12 guests! (8 of which were children under the age of 11!)

Great for a larger family
This is such a lovely place. The location is out a little ways but so very beautiful. The place is spacious and clean. Loved the baby grand piano!!! Also, love the Bible verses all over. There are only two little suggestions I would have to improve things. 1 - switch the mattresses on the bunk beds from camp mattresses to real ones. The kids were pretty uncomfortable. 2 - A small complimentary packet of coffee

Family stay
Overall fantastic stay. Clean, roomy, plenty of towels and blankets. The 3 grand boys enjoyed ping pong, basketball and bunk beds. The 3 baby girls slept very comfortably in bunk beds next to the parents. Lovely bathrooms. Only hick up..grill was not in much shape to grill as expected. We substituted with very nice oven. There was a small child crying downstairs but considering we had 3 tiny cryers of our own, it was perfect. Hope our boys walking back and forth didn't disturb downstairs owners to badly. :)

We stayed there after a long day at the Ark Encounter. The house is very nice and clean with plenty of room however there aren’t places to eat nearby so best to bring your own food. We were only there one night but it would be a nice place to stay longer at.

We stayed here because we had a family of 12. House was very clean and had everything we needed. It was a 30 minute drive to the Ark but it was worth it. The drive was beautiful and so was the property.

Kristen was very helpful and professional. She immediately responded to questions that I had concerning my stay. The house itself was super clean and organized. We had 16 people staying, and there was plenty of space for each individual. If we come back to Kentucky, we will definitely stay here again.

Stayed here for a family vacay to Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. Home is in a beautiful secluded area. We had 7 adults 3 children and plenty of room for everyone. We thoroughly enjoyed making smores at the outdoor fire pit and playing UNO at the large dining room table. Also loved the ping pong table and movie theater popcorn popper! It was family time well spent! Highly recommend. A+++ experience!

Minor things I would add
The property was beautiful and we enjoyed that it was in a rural setting. The only thing I would comment on is the bedroom by the front door would be better with a door instead of the curtain. We could have used a couple of lamps in the living room to read by. We met the owners and they were very pleasant and made us very welcome.

Super getaway!
My extended family came to see the ark. We needed a place to stay and found this house. It was fantastic. There were 8 of us. With four bedrooms and 2.5 baths, there was plenty of room. The house is beautiful and the views were fantastic. The furniture was comfortable and the dining room table big enough for all of us. We LOVED it and look forward to the time we can stay there again. We had questions from time to time and the host was super responsive. Overall, it was a great experience.

Beautiful location!
The host was very kind and easy to communicate with, the house is on a beautiful piece of property, organization in the house is great (labels for everything so you’re not spending extra time searching for things), lots of beds that accommodates a large group (we were 14), open floor plan that was great for a large group, and the fire pit in the backyard was the cherry on top. Definitely recommend!

Bunk beds aren’t comfortable and I’d suggest sliding/French some kind of door on the library. It is noisy for sleeping when people start getting up. The blocked off steps going down were strange for the grandkids. This is minor and the overal stay was very nice!!!

We were happy with our stay it fit our families needs. We all got a few days away together for a very rare occasion. So the cousins could play together and also visit some of the attractions nearby like the Ark encounter which was the main one. It was all just an Awesome time with our loved ones.
