Nice stay
Would definitely stay again although it was nice to see and hear the trains it got to be a little much at night but not a dealbreaker.

Big Mix-up
The place I booked was double booked. I had all my papers and confirmations which I had printed, but there was no record of them according to the person who met me at the cabin. The other person was in their system & allowed to stay. I was moved to a big old house nearby. The first night a mouse was running around the living room and kitchen. One evening a man and woman walked in where I was staying. I had never used that entrance. There were 4 or five entrances and I used the one where I had the code.Overall it was an unpleasant and scary experience.

Bed
The place is very cute,clean, safe. I only have one negative. Since there is really nowhere to sit except for the bed, it may be a good idea to flip/rotate the mattresses. When you sleep on them they tend to roll down to the side where people would sit. Otherwise I would highly recommend. Thank you.

Trip to Creation Museum and Ark Encounter
Nice place to stay while visiting these museums. Close to both. Minimal cooking but worked for us. Nice area to sit outside and enjoy. Trains added ambiance.

Not everything is perfect
Overall it was a very positive experience the only flaw was that there was not enough sugar no teabags and not enough light to see the Refreshment area. Otherwise everything was good

Bringing in the New Year 2022
I needed a last minute night stay for the first day of the year. Scheduling was easy and quick. The cabin is lovely. They each have clever fun names. I will definitely keep this place in mind for future trips.
