Bardstown Reunion stay
This property was a great fit for our family of four! Tastefully appointed and very clean, this three bedroom, two bath was very comfortable and quiet. Located extremely close to downtown Bardstown, many places are walkable. Great and timely communication with host and an easy check in made this weekend hassle free. Thank you.

End of summer get-away
Once we were able to have entrance to the house, our stay was perfect. The house was perfectly located to downtown Bardstown in order to walk almost anywhere. The house was very clean, beautifully decorated, inviting, with all the items in the kitchen needed to cook (though we did not).
Our only hiccup was the day of arrival. I expected the 'keys' email to include the directions/details for entry. None were received.
I tried contacting the home owner. Phone number listed was no longer a working number. Contacted VRBO directly. Was put into contact with the home owner. As it turns out, the phone number listed on the VRBO site is incorrect. I have since contacted the owner explaining that a correction is needed for that.
