We enjoyed our stay in Butler, KY. The duplex was clean and just what we needed for my wife and I and our two young boys (10 & 8). We enjoyed playing foosball and ski ball in the basement. The duplex is a 30 minute scenic drive to the Ark Encounter. On our last night, we ate supper at Pig Out Pizza, which is a small mom and pop pizza place less than half a mile down the road. It has a playground as well as an antique shop on the premises. The owner was very responsive and accommodating. ##### reid b.

The distance to the Arc Experience was perfect and there was a great coffee shop just up the road along with a yummy pizza place. Overall a nice stay. ##### Joselle O.
