You will see our passions, those God has developed in us, as we live out His Word for the world. The Worship Room is the reflection of artists we enjoy who encourage and inspire us to give more, live more and rejoice more in our Creator God. The Service Room is the reflection of our passion to serve with our lives to defend the right to freely worship and Glorify God openly.

We are allergic to animals!!! Please do not damage our ability to enjoy our own home by including your pets in your stay. We also keep the house 100% pet free to provide a space for immune compromised people who can not go to other places. Help us serve them. Do not bring your beloved animals. The house is equipped with full HVAC, including a separate system for the bottom floor. But the top floor does get hotter (in summer) and stay colder (in winter). There are ceiling fans in each room to help move air. 20 people use a lot of hot water. There is only one hot water tank (sorry this is an all electric house and a tankless option isn’t available yet). Be mindful of when you wash dishes, do laundry and take showers. There are towel hooks in each bathroom and a drying rack in the laundry room. There are plenty of bath and hand towels. They can all be found in the laundry room. Move the furniture as it suits your group. Please just return it to where it came from when you leave. Guest access Guests have access to the entire getaway, parking and outside play area. The house sits on an acre of meadow-like land in a residential community. Other things to note What makes this place different? The comfort, the space, the beauty… The house is set up to be a retreat center - able to handle the 100's of guests a year we host. While being an extension of your day at the Ark Encounter or Creation Museum it is also very practical. Each room has blankets we have made to snuggle under but remind you of the promise God has made to us. Each room includes displays to provoke thought. We have also included all the things we want when we travel. When we go anywhere, it’s a challenge to have enough space. So, we have set up the rooms to meet our needs: For grandma and grandpa to have a space, the kids to have a place to play, and of course everything we need to cook a big family meal to draw everyone together around the table. Our family has stayed for 10 days while in the area and enjoyed BBQ's, campouts, basketball and of course the gorgeous scenery! We are only 8 minutes to the ARK and 40 minutes to the Creation Museum. We've visited each a dozen times and it's never boring!!!
