The Ark

My family and i came to see the ark thats about 5 minutes from the location of this house. We enjoyed the house and the ark. Very nice property owners and the house is clean with nice complimentary waters and snacks. I plan to come back and hope to be staying at this home again! I highly recommend this property!

Cute house, great location, great value

Our family stayed recently and we were very happy with the home. The wifi was fast and dependable, parking is easy, the home was clean, and the bathroom works well. There were nice little touches from the owner as well. We'd be happy to stay there in the future. One caveat, there wasn't a washer/dryer at the home. We made other arrangements, but I do hope they are installed in the future.

Great home we could relax in!

Our family enjoyed the darling home, Nina's on Main. The space was just right for us to retreat after a day of touring the nearby Creation Museum and Ark Encounter. The home was updated, clean and just the right size for 4 adults and 3 grandsons. Great communication with the host, she took care of all our questions. We had a great stay! size for

Beautiful experience

We stayed in this adorable and comfortable house during a conference we attended at the Ark Encounter. It was just a few minutes drive to the Ark which was perfect for us. It was clean and well-stocked with towels and all the necessary kitchen items. The beds were comfortable, and the entire house was so cutely decorated. We loved staying here and will definitely be back!

Our Stay Was Wonderful!

Nina's place was everything it was advertised to be. We loved the charm of the older but updated home. Everything was on the main floor which was a real plus for one of my family members. Beds were comfortable. The home was very clean. Gina pays attention to details. We loved that she provided menus for local restaurants (Edwardo's Italian food was great), plenty of towels, tissue boxes everywhere--the little things say "She Cares!" Gina was a joy to work with--great communication!

Lovely stay

We had a lovely stay! The combination of a cozy porch for coffee and wine, along with a spacious interior created the perfect escape.Being in the heart of town while having a retreat-like feel was a great balance. Seeing the deer outback in the evenings was an added bonus.
