Excellent Location!

Our family of four adults and one child was very comfortable in this clean and spacious house. We found everything we needed to cook, relax, wash clothes and enjoy our visits to the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. Ideally located between the two attractions and plenty of amenities nearby.

House looks practically new. Everything was well kept and in good working order. We were in town seeing Ark Encounter, Creation Museum and a game in Cincinatti.

The house was wonderful!

We had a great stay. It was the perfect place for our mini vacation. The house was absolutely wonderful. Very well maintained and we loved the added bonus of having a garage attached as it was snowy and cold and we enjoyed not having to get in a cold car. Perfectly situated between The Creation Museum and The Ark Encounter.

Home away from home!

The Blue Stone house was great for the us. It was homey, clean and very comfortable. Our host, Bryan, was quick to respond in all of our communications and was also extra accommodating. The beds were comfy with a nice selection of pillows! We will definitely choose Blue Stone again!
