Just what we needed!

This property was perfect for what we were looking for with some meetings and out-of-town travel! We have a few remote employees and this a great house for them. It was so clean and had all the amenities we wanted. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The living room and dining rooms were perfect for our team to get together, so nice to be in person and not on Zoom for a change!! The location was great, just seconds from downtown. The property owners were so helpful and quick to respond, you can really tell they care about their house and making it a home for guests!

My family and I stayed here for 4 nights and we were delighted!

The owners were extremely accommodating and were on top of things. We were very comfortable in this house, and we enjoyed our stay tremendously! We stayed for four nights and didn’t leave the house much. They provided everything you need for a comfortable stay, and even some extras! I highly recommend this property for your stay in Bowling Green. Thank you again for the great experience!
