Welcome to The Third Monkey

You may be curious about the name “The Third Monkey.” It’s inspired by an old saying: “Never seek out a fight, but if you must fight, fight like you’re the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s Ark… and brother, it’s starting to rain.” This sentiment, emphasizing determination and resilience, felt perfectly fitting given our proximity to the Ark Encounter. Just as the third monkey was ready to fight for a place on the ark, we are dedicated to ensuring your stay is nothing short of excellent. We’ll strive to provide the best experience possible, resolve any unexpected issues, and continuously improve based on your feedback. We encourage you to share your thoughts on what you enjoyed, what could be improved, and any suggestions you may have to enhance future stays.
