IMPORTANT:
1- We provide a swing set for our younger guests' enjoyment. To ensure their safety, we require adult supervision at all times. Please note that injuries are the responsibility of the supervising adult, not the establishment. The swing set is suitable for children aged 3 to 8 years, weighing no more than 100 pounds, to prevent damage to the equipment. Any damages to the swing set will incur a replacement fee. We appreciate your cooperation in following these guidelines to keep a safe and fun environment for everyone.
2- Sweet Retreat is somewhat close to a train track, and while the sound is gentle enough not to disturb, it’s worth noting if absolute silence is crucial for your stay. Please keep this in mind when booking.

Perfect Stay for Christian Family vacation!
My Mom just turned 80 six months ago. She had a "bucket list" item of seeing "The Ark & the Creation Museum. This home had everything! Dishes, pots & pans, coffee maker, glasses, microwave, dishwasher, extra large refrigerator, bbq, linens & much more! It was easy freeway access and had a local Kroger grocery store and gas station within a mile. Neighborhood was quiet & peaceful. We invited my wife's parents to go with us & we were so glad we did! This is the perfect accommodation for 3 couples! We had a blast cooking meals together, eating outside together on the patio, playing cards on the dinning room table, sitting around the fire pit cooking S'mores! This property not only made great new memories but also allowed the blended family to share vacation stories from the past. What a delightful place to stay! 3 nights was not enough time to explore the surrounding area. I would suggest 5-7 day minimum.

Adorable renovated home
This was a really cute property very convenient to the interstate. The amenities of the home were wonderful. The overall location took away one star because there is a train track close by and trains run all night as well.

Family Getaway to Visit the Ark
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The listing is accurate. The home was cozy and had everything we needed for our trip. If you are looking to visit the Ark and the Creation Museum, this is the perfect spot. Its located almost directly in between both attractions.

Great Place to Stay
The house is really lovely - nicely decorated, clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Our group consisted of 4 adults (2 couples) so the layout was perfect with 2 bathrooms. We didn't use the firepit, but it certainly looked like a great place to spend an evening. The shopping center that is close by had a number of restaurants and a grocery store. There is also a Starbucks. The location was perfect for our day trips to the Creation Museum, the Ark and the Newport Aquarium. All in all, I would definitely recommend the house and will stay here again if we are ever in the area again.

Very impressed!
This rental was incredibly pretty and clean. We were all so very comfortable in your house. We not only enjoyed the tourist attractions we came to KY to see, we actually looked forward to the mornings and evenings that we spent in the house. This was so much better than staying in a hotel. We hated to leave!

So cute?
We were so pleased with our stay! The house was decorated so cute and they had all the amenities that you could think of for your stay, including some K-cups. It was conveniently located close to the interstate making it very easy for us to get to the Creation Museum and The Ark Encounter! And it sits halfway between both! Could not have asked for a better place to be!

Fabulous family reunion
My small family's annual reunion took us to the Ark Encounter this year, and this was the prefect place for the 4 of us to stay. Easy to get to and beautifully furnished/ decorated inside, we were perfectly comfortable.
