Ark & Creation Retreat – Spacious Home for 12 w/Short Drive to Attractions! | Maison dans Walton

Walton may be a small town, but that sure doesn’t prevent it from packing in an abundance of charm, history, and incredible attractions! Nestled amid the lush, rolling hills of the Kentucky countryside, you’ll find the perfect blend of tranquil landscapes and easy access to world-class experiences. Here at Ark & Creation Retreat, extended family or friends can get in on the fun as well, a spacious 6-bedroom home ready to host your next epic getaway.
One of the must-see destinations in the area is the Ark Encounter—a life-size replica of Noah’s Ark! This jaw-dropping structure, less than 30 minutes to the south, brings ancient history to life and offers interactive exhibits, live animals, and even zip-lining adventures. An equal drive to the north will take you to the renowned Creation Museum, where you'll journey through exhibits that explore the story of creation with immersive displays, botanical gardens, a planetarium, and petting zoos.
When you’re ready to check out life in the big city, Cincinnati is less than a half hour drive north where you can catch a sports game, visit a historical museum, book a tasting at a bourbon distillery, shop to your heart’s content, or plan evening meal at one of the eclectic local restaurants. If you prefer to stay a little more local, the city of Florence is the perfect in-between compromise, only 20 minutes from the home and offering its own desirable selection of shopping and dining.
The home’s bright and airy interior sets the perfect tone for relaxation and connectivity with loved ones, with all the modern amenities you’ve come to expect in a vacation retreat. The plush sectional is an ideal spot for a family movie night or bingeing episodes of all your favorite shows on the smart TV. Up in the loft, a more intimate entertainment experience awaits, where you can break out the board games or watch the movie of your choosing, while a dedicated workspace will help you keep up with work tasks. Back downstairs, the kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances alongside ample countertop space and cabinetry for preparing and storing all your snacks and goodies. In the quiet morning hours, brew up a fresh cup of coffee and take it out to the deck to soak in the fresh and sweeping views as you make plans for the day ahead.
