Anyone is welcome at the Holly House and at the time we are allowing 8 people to stay at a time. Everything is brand new and we spared no expense on your sleeping comfort. The garage has a game room for added fun. There is a fully stocked kitchen for longer stays and laundry facilities. If you have a boat, bring it, the launch is 1 block away.

The little house was perfect for our family while we visited the Creation Museum. It was well stocked, great game room, carport and great wifi and cable options. Highly recommend!

We arrived and had a bit of trouble retrieving the key from the key lock. I appears to be sprung, getting the key was a chore as was opening the lock to replace the key upon departure. Also the coffee pot did not work. It turns on but barely drips through and clogs. Everything else was tip top!

Well furnished, and nice location in a quiet, friendly small town , close to the Ohio River, everything we needed. Our dogs loved it to with a fenced in yard and a dog door ! This feature made it easy to enjoy our days at the 2 attractions without worrying about the dogs !

We really enjoyed our stay at the Holly House. It was very cozy and accommodating. We loved the neighborhood and proximity to the river. My family got to experience lightning bugs for the first time and it brought back great memories of my childhood as I grew up around them. Perfect location for visiting the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter which were the primary reasons for our trip. Thank you so much!

Cute little house with good accommodations. Kids enjoyed the game room. Great communication. We had an unfortunate unforeseen situation with a neighbor in the middle of the night. The host was gracious and handled it well. We appreciated her quick communication and resolution.

The location was good to be able to get to Creation Museum and Ark. Petersburg is a nice quiet town. The furnishings in the house were nice. We did not like the steep steps to get to the dryer in the basement plus the musty smell in the basement was unpleasant. I have to say the bathroom shower was disgusting!! Mold on doors and track. After my son took his first shower he asked me to come look at the shower head. It was black and furry on the bottom half. I had to clean it with bleach product I found under the sink! Needless to say none of us liked showering there!!

Cute little old house that has been updated in a small community close to Creation Museum and Ark Encounter which was the reason for our visit. We enjoyed our time here, and the close walk to the Ohio River.

Had everything we needed...a nice stay. A quaint area located a block off the river...fairly quiet. Responsive host and pet-friendly. We recommend if you are coming to the area for The Creation Museum. Bring your vittles, as there are no groceries or restaurants nearby.

It was alright. Had a key lock problem but they fixed quickly.
Kitchen was nice. It was fairly centrally located for all our different activities. The town consisted of homes, community center and fire dept. No grocery store or quick stop.
Beds were very soft, 3rd bedroom is basically a room for 1 child.

We were captivated with the house as soon as we saw it! When walking inside, we were thrilled with the appearance and amenities. Loved the area. Very quiet. Have to drive down a windy road but it is worth it!! Very comfortable.

We had a fun, long weekend here. Very close to the Creation Museum. Maybe bring a few groceries if you’re coming from a long drive. It’s a little bit of a drive to a grocery store. But there is a market within quick walking distance that has several items if you need them. They also serve dinner. Pizza, wings, subs, etc. Appreciated the fenced yard and doggie door. We walked around the little town each night. A little playground and the river are right there. A memorable weekend visiting the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum.

My intent was to find a property close to the activities where my grandchildren were playing softball and we could all stay together. The "Holly House" accomplished that goal. The only negative was the curvy narrow road getting to the property from the interstate. Shop for being able to cook and eat at the property's great kitchen, (grill there too), to prevent excess trips. The property was close to a playground, and the rec room in the garage, will keep bored teens busy.

We went to the Cinncinatti Zoo, and Jungle Jims store, 3rd street Market and had pizza and hoagie. It was such a nice time. Everything with the property was so clean and comfortable. We walked around town and everyone was so nice! Met the owner and she was so incredible! We will definitely stay again. Loved it! 🙂

Great little place near the Creation Museum!
Nice little place, great yard and game room for kids. Kinda isolated and road leading down to it is a little scary, but in reality is not far from Indiana and shopping!

Nice weekend away from the city
Came down with some friends who visited last year. We are disc golfers so Idlewild was our main goal and it's right up the road. Explored the little town and everything near by and overall had a great time. Hope we didn't keep your neighbors up, some times the boys get loud 😅 Would definitely stay again!

We stayed four nights. The house is in a quiet little community. It was very comfortable for us and our children. There’s a nice playground a couple of blocks away and the Ohio River is a couple of blocks the other direction. We had everything we needed for a fun stay.

Quaint, Beautiful town!
Our family absolutely loved our stay! The neighborhood was nice, when we want on walks everyone said hello, we were centrally located and very close to the Creation Museum. Annie was incredible to work with and having a nice place to stay that's dog-friendly, has a general store/restaurant close by and an ATM around the corner was fantastic! 10/10 would VRBO here again!
