Beautiful view, several open spaces for family time, large bedrooms, clean bathrooms, great water pressure and up to date appliances. Firepit with sidewalk entrance to home. Extra refrigerator/freezer in the attached garage.
This was our second stay on Martin Ridge and it was perfect! The home was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The hosts are helpful and kind. And the view is just heavenly. This was a wonderful place stay and we highly recommend it!
Our family had a great time! The house was very clean, and there was so much the owner provided to make our stay comfortable. Communication was easy, and Joann was great! And those views...from every room of the house!

Great for our family of 16. Basically everything that you need is supplied. Enjoyed the swimming pool, fishing pond, and fire pit
Came for a weekend of relaxing. The fishing overall in Derby wasn’t great but it was great to breathe the fresh air and take in all the amazing views offered by this home. Our second time at the property was just as nice as the first.
the pool was definitely a win! the views are beautiful. we have land close but cannot fit our whole family in that house, so this was perfect. feel like you are on top of the world
We’ve been here with our six grandchildren in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024! We love this place. When we arrived this time, the oldest grandson (now 17) stretched out his arms and said, “It feels so good to be back!”
We couldn't have selected a more beautiful, peaceful, perfect place to celebrate one of our group's upcoming marriage.
The property had everything we needed and more. And the host was very friendly and helpful.
We plan to return next year for sure 😀
We had a great time fishing and hiking the area. The locals were all friendly and you could watch the moon rise over the Ohio River from the backyard. The owner was very helpful and the property had everything we needed to have a relaxing trip. We will definitely be returning.
This was our third time vacationing here. We just love it. Once again, we had a wonderful stay. It was so relaxing and beautiful. The house is clean and welcoming. The pool is fun and enjoyable for everyone. The kids (and adults) really enjoyed the cows as well as the stunning views.
Joann and her husband are amazing hosts and we appreciate all their help and answers to our questions about farm life.
We highly recommend this beautiful property.
This was out second time staying at this property and everything was wonderful just like the first time! The property is beautiful and very family friendly. We weren’t able to use the pool as much this time around due to cooler weather but we had fires in the evenings and even ventured out to Owensboro a time or 2. The hosts are wonderful and very responsive if needed. Our large family loves this house and will most likely be back for more stays in the future!
I highly recommend this property in Derby, Indiana, for a family getaway. The combination of stunning river views, the fire pit for roasting marshmallows, and the ability to fly kites make it an excellent choice. Furthermore, the cleanliness of the farmhouse is impressive, and you can feel confident that your family will have a comfortable and relaxing stay.
