About this property

JC’s Cottage is less than 5 minutes from The Ark Encounter!

  • JC’s Cottage is safely nestled in the heart of WILLIAMSTOWN only 5 minutes from The Ark Encounter & a short drive to The Creation Museum. We are located in the Golden Triangle! It’s an easy drive to Cincinnati, Lexington or Louisville! JC’s Cottage has been newly remodeled and has been a labor of love for our family. Relax after a day of site seeing in the area. JC’s is located 1 min from downtown WILLIAMSTOWN where you will find restaurants and shopping. Close to the Bourbon Trail, too! We do have a "Blink" camera installed on the front porch next to outdoor light, which is next to the front door.

This home is absolutely beautiful and cozy—truly our taste. Simple, clean, and elegant. It is conveniently located close to Noah’s Ark and about a 35 minute drive from the creation museum. There is also Walmart about 10 minutes away. The kitchen has everything you need to cook. Ms. Gina is amazing.

This is a great place to stay.

I can recommend this place to anyone who needs a place to stay in the area. The house is mostly set up for a handicap/ wheelchair accessible. But the home was very comfortable.

We had a chance to get away for a weekend to visit the Ark Encounter. This was a very clean homey house very close to the Ark. It was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed to be able to relax and enjoy the whole weekend. We would love to stay there again when we’re in the area. We didn’t want to leave!
