When we arrived on 7-27 we met Sherry in the driveway so she could show us the view of the Ark. After that she showed us to the house and I have to say what an awesome place. Very quiet and secluded. She showed us around the house and told us stories of previous visitors and we felt so at home. The property is very comfortable and Sherry definitely tends to all you're needs and questions. Highly recommend this property if you are looking for a place while visiting the Ark and Creation museum.. Also Sherry will have a special treat for you upon arrival.We stayed 7-27-25 to 7-30-25.. Thank you Sherry!

Very Quiet

This place is wonderful. Very clean and Ms Sherry is so sweet and helpful. I loved the fire pit, porch swing. Only thing I would have done different. Is to bought some groceries before we got there. Other than that it’s a great place for a getaway. It’s so peaceful.planning going back in the fall.

Sherry was an excellent host. She greeted us at the meeting site and we followed her down her propertys road to the house. The house was neat and nicely decorated with little animals hidden throughout for the kiddos enjoyment. (Be sure to bring a tiny animal to hide for her and other visitors) Sherry gave us a tour of the house, showing us where everything is, including extra blankets and board games. She gave us a loaf of homemade banana bread and it was a delicious breakfast treat that we all enjoyed. This is the best vrbo experience we've ever had. Thanks for welcoming our Girl Scout Troop. Wishing you many more visitors. God bless.

TERRIFIC STAY

My Happy Place was terrific! Sherry was an excellent hostess and the house couldn’t have been better. She made sure everything that we could ever need was there. Plus, she is a great person!!! The house is in a quiet location and you can even see the ark from the property. We couldn’t have picked a better place to spend our vacation .

Arc Encounter Happy Place

The owner was exceptional. The location is remote in the facility is not new but very nice and large. Fully functioning, fully equipped and wonderfully private. A little bit of a distance to get to, but that’s a necessity if it’s going to be remote in private. Great proximity to the arc encounter.
