This is an amazing place. If your looking for a peaceful, quiet place, this is it. It is a beautiful property and only 15 minutes from the Ark. The home has everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Sherry is a wonderful hostess. She actually took us in and showed us around the property after we arrived late. She really made us feel welcome. We would most definitely stay here again.

Property took me back to my childhood a little town in West Tenn. The place was just comforting. I was able to sit on front porch rocking with my coffee and the sun rise. So much better than hotel stay worth the extra coins.

The house was absolutely, without a doubt, the perfect, cozy, comforting place to stay for rest and relaxation. Anyrhing you needed, it was there at the house. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by the hostess with a warm welcome which was quite comforting and welcoming. We were visiting the Ark Encounter which is aboit 15 minutes away. This place is a MUST stay. Above all, you will be touched deeply by a beautiful soul.
