Home Away from Home

Absolutely loved our stay! Melinda was a fantastic host—her communication was clear, quick, and incredibly helpful every step of the way. She was so kind and flexible, which made our experience even better. The property had such a warm, home-away-from-home feel that made it easy to relax and settle in. We’d absolutely stay again and highly recommend her place to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming getaway.

The property is nicely updated but retained so much of its original character, was very clean and well stocked, just like being in your own home. The location was convenient and our group of friends really enjoyed our stay, especially our morning coffee in the cute front porch.

Great Weekend in Frankfort

We had a wonderful time at Bourbon Sunshine. The house is located close to the center of town, near multiple attractions. The parking in the back was spacious enough for our two large trucks. The space in the home was big enough and then some for our family of 7.
