October 2026

We were a group of three ladies celebrating a 40th birthday on the bourbon trail, and this house was the perfect launching off point for everything we wanted to do. The location is very central to most everything we did, the house and beds were very comfortable, and there were plenty of dishes and cooking tools. As with any stay, you may have to buy some basic cooking ingredients if you’re planning to cook a lot of meals, but what was in the kitchen worked for our minimal cooking purposes. The host is also very responsive and helpful if you can’t find extra supplies or just have questions during your stay. I highly recommend this stay for your next Kentucky visit!
