It was the perfect location in the middle of Lexington and Louisville which is where we went for all of our tastings. The home had all of our basic essentials that we needed for our stay and was very clean and well kept.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful home along the Bourbon Trail in Kentucky! The location couldn’t be better—super central to all the major distilleries and attractions we wanted to visit. The house was spotless and well-maintained, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay.What truly stood out was the view of the lake off the back porch. Waking up to the calm, shimmering water every morning was such a treat. The peaceful setting made it feel like a true getaway while still being conveniently close to everything.Highly recommend this property for anyone exploring the Bourbon Trail or just looking for a relaxing, scenic retreat.

Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph T. Oct 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay for bourbon trail! The home is situated on a small lake in a nice neighborhood only 30-40mins from Louisville and 60mins to Bardstown. We found the location a nice place to base our Bourbon Trail trip from and retire to in the evening. The home was spotless upon check-in, had comfortable beds, and great water pressure; it matched the listing perfectly. We did not use much of the kitchen but it appeared to have everything you would need to prepare coffee, a meal, etc. There is also a grill onsite with a small area for a bonfire. ##### Joseph T.

Some buddies and I used this as our home base for a bit of bourbon trail exploration and couldn’t have been happier. It’s secluded and quiet but also close to various distilleries and restaurants. The house was spacious and clean with plenty of room for us to hang out and get a good night’s rest. 10/10 would stay here again. ##### Jeremy M.
