The home was clean and cozy! As a boy mom, I appreciated that there wasn’t a lot of clutter and decor that I had to put into a “safety zone”. The home was well stocked with everything we needed. Great location to both the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. The owner was very responsive to all of my questions.

This was the perfect stay for our party of 5--right off the interstate, 30 minutes to The Creation Museum, 15 minutes to The Ark Encounter. Everything inside and outside has been newly updated. Very clean and comfortable. I would stay here again and recommend this property to others.

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.

Great Location
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 location was absolutely perfect for those things. Host was super helpful with everything, and the stay was overall fantastic. Was plenty spacious for 4 Adults and 2 children.

Great stay
This home met all our needs. Very clean. Even had a two car garage we could pull in to. Very nice. Only suggestion we had was to maybe have some room darkening curtains put up on the bedroom windows to help block out the street light from across the street. Otherwise a great stay.

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!
