Summary Summary
Perfectly positioned halfway between the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum, Ark & Creation Stay offers unbeatable convenience for exploring Northern Kentucky’s most visited attractions.

You’re close enough for easy drives to both attractions, yet tucked away in a peaceful setting that feels like home.
Description Description
Step inside this brand new home, where everything feels fresh, bright, and thoughtfully designed. The chic open kitchen immediately catches your eye — stainless steel appliances gleam, the Keurig waits for your morning coffee ritual, and counter seating for three makes it easy to chat while meals come together. Just beyond, a dining table for six sits basked in natural light, creating the perfect setting for family dinners, game nights, or planning tomorrow’s adventures.

The main living room invites you to sink into the oversized wraparound couch and stream your favorites on the smart TV after a full day of exploring. Upstairs, the loft provides another cozy gathering space with its own smart TV, couch, and board games — ideal for kids or a second movie night. Downstairs, the lower-level den offers yet another smart TV and comfortable seating, giving everyone room to spread out. With multiple living areas, there’s plenty of space to come together — or slip away for a little privacy when you need it.

House was spacious and clean. Enough room for everyone to have their own space. Two of the tvs could not be used at the same time as they seemed to be linked. Many areas where towel rods had to be re hung. Drywall was not fixed. Looked unfinished. Could use more hooks for towels towel rods did not seem to work. Basics for cooking were there although could use oven mitts. AC on the main level was good. The upstairs was hot! There were fans provided but it only put a small dint in the temperature upstairs.

We were very satisfied with the property. There was plenty of space for people to spread out throughout the house and have some quiet/private time. The host was timely in responding to any inquiries. The only downside was not having access to a backyard with a grill or patio to sit outside. That's an amenity we usually look for when booking properties. But even without it, we still found the stay pleasurable and we would definitely book again.

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We’re glad you enjoyed the spacious home and that our communication was helpful throughout your stay. We appreciate your feedback regarding the outdoor space. The property does not have a grill listed among the amenities, but the backyard is accessible for guests to enjoy. We’re sorry if there was any confusion, and we wish we had known during your stay so we could have helped clarify. We’re happy you still had a pleasant experience and would love to host you again!

The house was clean and new. We had to close the vents on the main floor to get it cool enough upstairs. The house has basics but lacks things like a mirror in the bedroom. No throw blankets anywhere. It had a place in every bathroom that has towel rack repairs in progress or needs repairs. Bathrooms need better and more towels. Only one hair dryer in house.

if you're looking for a peaceful getaway, this place has you covered. Close enough to Cincinnati to be able to pop up and see the sights by day, yet far enough away to to be able to trade the hustle and bustle of city for peace and serenity at night. Indianapolis, Lexington, and Louisville are all within an hour and a half to two hour drive as well, leaving this house poised as the perfect place to call home base for day trips as well. As for the house itself, the place is so new that the Google maps in the rental car didn't have a problem getting us there, but it didn't have a street drawn on the map yet. That being said, everything worked FLAWLESSLY and was EXACTLY as pictured, rooms galore, and bathrooms on every floor. Matt and his team took care of us like family and went above and beyond to make sure we had a trouble free and memorable vacation. You need to stay here if you're going to be in Cincinnati!!!

We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely recommend this property to other families visiting the area. The host was incredibly responsive, informative, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. Everything was straightforward, friendly, and well organized, which made our trip stress-free from start to finish.The house was perfect for our family and served as an excellent home base for exploring the area. It was conveniently located near the Ark Encounter as well as other attractions we enjoyed, including the Buffalo Trace Distillery tour.There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out, relax, and unwind after busy days of sightseeing. It truly felt like a comfortable hub to come back to each evening. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily book again in the future!

We really enjoyed our stay at this newly built home. It was extremely clean, comfortable, and a great place for our family to relax. The layout was convenient, the beds were comfortable, and everything felt fresh and well cared for.We did have a few suggestions that would make future stays even better and are typically expected in a VRBO rental: a laundry room garbage can, a cooking spoon holder, stronger HVAC airflow upstairs (only a small amount of air came through the vents), bedroom ceiling fans, measuring cups and spoons, more than one kitchen cutting knife, steak knives, light bulbs for all lamps, a shade or curtain for the patio door, a grill, a can opener, a shower caddy in the king bedroom bathroom, shower mats for outside the tubs, pot holders, a griddle plate for the stove, and more plates and dishware since the home sleeps 10.Overall, we had a great stay and would absolutely return. With just a few additions, this home would be perfect.

Everything was clean and brand new. The amenities were great. Because it's a new construction and even the road the house is on is new and not on our maps app, we had to sleuth out a bit how to get there but we managed fine. We had an issue with the air conditioning not working for the first couple hours after checking in, but after a while it finally kicked on and we didn't have any other issues with it for the rest of the stay.

Still had that new house smell. Very clean. LOTS of space. We ate most of our meals there and enjoyed playing games and watching movies when not out doing activities. Very comfortable and nice, quiet neighborhood in a small town. Would definitely stay here again if we were in the area. Perfectly situated between AiG locations. We also really appreciated having access to the garage to park our car. That was a big plus especially after pulling in one day in the rain with groceries to unload.

My wife and I are from Michigan and we met many of our friends from Church at this property (8 adults). We went to the creation museum, hung out in downtown Cincinnati, and went to the Ark encounter. This house was perfectly centralized to each of those places. It is a brand new home and had a bathroom for each couple. We will definitely go back in the future!

The best experience ever!!! Clean, spacious, new, fantastic neighborhood. Communication was exceptional. We found lots of restaurants within 10 minutes. 30 minutes from The Ark and 30 minutes from Creation museum and 30 minutes from Cincinnati baseball. We had 2 couples and paid less than 2 hotel rooms. Had way , way more comfort. More care than any of the 1500 hotels I have stayed in. This is a no brainer decision!!!!!!!

This was a wonderful, brand new home in easy driving distance of Cincinnati and the Ark Encounter. It was perfect for several units of extended family to stay and all have their own space and privacy. We loved it! Would definitely stay there again.

There Were items missing that for a party of 9 were important. Towels and wash cloths were only supplied at 1 each. On day 3 we received more towels along with a few hand towels we did not have before. For 4 bathrooms only 1 bath mat. The kitchen would be great if items were added such as a can opener and a few plastic containers with lids as we did a lot of cooking. We enjoyed the area and our trip. I would suggest checking to make sure lamps have light bulbs or at least supply when requested. The house was in a good location.

Our stay was wonderful! Matt and his team were kind, friendly, and quick to respond. The home was impeccably clean, spacious, and extremely comfortable. It was easy to settle in and feel right at home. We will be back!

The Host and Home were great, exactly as pictured. We had an issue with the wifi not working from the start and the host worked with us to try to fix it but we could not get it resolved before the end of the stay.

Thanks for staying with us! We’re so glad you liked the place and found the hosting helpful. We feel terrible about the Wi-Fi issues during your trip and really appreciate you being so cool about it while we tried to fix it. Just a heads-up that the Wi-Fi is fully restored and working great now. You were wonderful guests and are welcome back anytime!

Our host, Matt, was amazing. He answered questions very quickly, gave us local places to eat, and checked in on us each day. Brand new beautiful home that has so much space. Would comeback if we came to Walton again! Thanks for everything!!

This place was awesome! Lots of room for everyone and appeared to be brand new. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to the Ark Encounter.

We had a wonderful time at the Ark and Creation home! Everything was just as described in the home. Matt responded almost immediately every time we had a question and even reached out to see if there was anything we needed. There was good access to everywhere we wanted to go and the grandkids got to see snow for the very first time! I would recommend this home to anyone!
