Martha's place was everything we were hoping for and more😉. The yard was beautifully manicured with blooming flowers of all varieties. Martha greeted us with smiles and info when we arrived and assured us she would be around if we needed anything. We liked the fact that we were away from the busy traffic but close enough for shopping. Nice, clean and Homey.

Our stay at Sunset Serenity was perfection! Martha and Donald are the quintessential hosts - we felt supported and looked after, but never felt we didn't have the privacy we wanted. The property was well cared for and provided a welcome escape for my kids to run and play after long days of sightseeing. Enjoying smores by the firepit as the sun sets is a must-do! You simply cannot stay stressed out here - I highly recommend you stop in for a stay!

Wonderful home and host
We just loved Martha and Donnie’s guest home. It is a tranquil place with beautiful views. They go out of their way to make you feel at home. They go above and beyond with special little touches that made for a wonderful trip. My husband forgot his phone charger, they had a box on the wall full of every kind you could need and common cords already plugged in by the beds. There was a box of beanie babies for children to take one and keep. Besides ceiling fans they had a really assume fan on the wall that was prefect. There was coffee, paper products like plates, utensils, towels, toiletries and smores for the fire put. They also had those large ice packs in the freezer for us to use so we didn’t need to buy ice when we went out for our cooler. One of the most unique features was vent covers, I get a little cold in AC but my husband likes it cold so these were a wonderful addition so i could keep the AC from freezing me when I took a bath but keep the rest of the house cool for him. Trust me you will not have a problem keeping cool, the AC works great. As for Martha and Donnie, you won’t find more sweet people. They go out of their way to make you comfortable and be social. If we wanted privacy they gave it. If you wanted to set and talk you will not find better conversation than sitting on their front porch with Donnie sipping coffee or for us it was beer and bourbon. When we go the Kentucky we will stay with them, it’s prefect for 2. But it would be great for a small family.

Great property in the peaceful, quiet country but just a few miles to town. Very relaxing to ‘come home to’ each night after visiting the ark and other attractions. Hosts were very kind; gave us our space and yet available if needed. Lots of activities at the home; including painting rocks, swimming pool, games, toys, puzzles, hammocks, corn hole, s’mores basket, fire pit and more. I would note the short road to the property is one lane but is a dead end so not much traffic.

Convenient location
The property was under some construction while we were there. Owners were on site which inhibits some privacy, but they did their best to stay out of our way. Very friendly couple. Might make it part of the listing that they will be on the property for couples seeking a romantic weekend. Overall beautiful property and location. The pool was great!

Relaxing family vacation
This place was great for me and my daughter and her best friend (12 and 11 years old) for a 2 day vacation. We came to the area for The Ark Experience, but this place is the reason we will come back. Martha and Donnie have a peaceful, country home with a great pool that allowed me to unwind and the girls to wear themselves out in the pool. The beds were comfortable and the place had everything you need to have a fun time - even included ingredients for a firepit & s'mores! They are wonderfully welcoming and kind people who have a very nice place to stay in the country. Their hospitality and warmth really made this vacation a great time for me and the kiddos. Thank you for everything!!

Beautiful Family Friendly Country Getaway
We couldn't be happier with our stay. Donnie and Martha went out of there way to show hospitality, freshened up the pool a bit preseason, provided all the stuff for smores around the fire, took our kids for ride in the side-by-side and also gave them a few toys, and sat with us around the fire and chatted for a bit on our last evening there. We were there 4 days for home school conf at Ark/Creation Musem, it was a nice getaway in beautiful setting at the end of each bustling day. Thanks Donnie and Martha!

Sunset serenity review
The owners were accommodating and did a good job of helping our child enjoy his visit via the toys available for use, as well as the time we spent in the pool. We did not spend a lot of time in the room as we were out sight seeing. If you are planning on staying primarily instead of tourism the outdoor area is very nice and enjoyable. The scenery is beautiful . It’s overall basic and meets your needs but that was exactly what we needed. I would go back again, my only recommendation would be to maybe update the bathroom a little bit as it needs some tlc. Fresh towels and supplies readily available was very convenient.
