The Tuck 10/10

We absolutely loved our stay at the Tuck. Perfect for my husband and I traveling through the area for the night. It has absolutely everything you could need and want in a rental! The location is beautiful and private. We highly recommend for a husband/wife stay or a stay with friends or family! Loved the Tuck!

Exactly as Described

The location and structure where exactly what was described. Isolated but easy access to everything one could need. I was in town for event at horse park. The drive was easy and I passed any major or minor store/restaurant needed. Access via highway or main roads with ease. But once u hit the last mile you forget you are so close to Lexington. Highly recommend to anyone looking for on tend design with a well crafted DIY environment. Definitely a project if joy for the owner.

First visit to Kentucky

The Tuck was perfect for our weekend getaway. The drive getting there is beautiful. We couldn't have asked for better weather. It was nice to sit outside after dinner with the fire pit. It’s just the cutest place and had everything we needed. I’ve been telling everyone about it. We can’t wait to go back, looks like there’s more being added too.
