Family Reunion

We stayed here for a family reunion and toured the Ark for my mom’s 80th birthday. With a large group of people who traveled from many states away, it was especially nice to have 2 kitchens. From the teenagers on up, everyone had a good time. The house was nice, clean, and the A/C was cold even in hot July. Thank you!

Great Family Stay -Close to Ark

The home is amazing for a large family stay. Had a few hiccups, however the owners came to fix the issues. Hot tub did not work, but they really put every effort to get it to work. About 15 min from the Ark. Would defin stay there again and highly recommend! Great amount of space for parking as we brought our 32ft motorhome and had no issues parking with plenty of room.

Great place to stay when visiting the Ark Encounter. Less than a 10 min drive. House located in the small town of Williamstown. Located close to the towns ice cream shop. The grandkids enjoyed the game room, and playing ping pong. The player piano was unique. Everyone sat down and pretended they could play.

We had great time at Mayor's house. It surpassed our expectations in every way, and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a spacious and welcoming retreat for larger group. This house has everything you can think off. We specially enjoy the fireplace outside and hot tub. Piano was a big hit for kids. They loved it! The owners were incredibly responsive and accommodating, ensuring our stay was seamless and enjoyable. Great place to stay. I highly recommend.
