The backyard was very accommodating to our pet needs; fences are expensive and can be tricky with local ordinances, but a fully enclosed backyard would make a great situation a perfect one.The house and property were very clean, the kitchen very functionally stocked, bathrooms ready to go with plenty of towels/soap/shampoo etc., TVs were awesome and internet service fully provided for. We really liked how the doors locked behind you and were so easily unlocked with our code. The neighborhood was pleasant and felt very safe. I would absolutely recommend staying at this property!

“Wow!” That was our reaction when we opened the front door! The home was beautifully decorated! And well appointed with everything we needed. The exterior of the home was well groomed and fresh. We spent evenings chatting around the fire pit. We would definitely stay again during future visits! Thank you to John for being such fabulous host!

The house was perfect for our trip to Bardstown! Clean, well-decorated, and located in close proximity to downtown shopping and dining. Also very centrally located to many great distilleries which made visiting multiple locations easy. We will definitely consider for future trips!

Beautiful home and had everything we needed however when we walked in there was an odor, similar to that of a dirty mop. We purchased some Lysol spray which helped. The master bedroom light and ceiling fan didn’t work.One side of the master shower door does not slide open. Also eight brick corner pieces for the firepit were laying on top of the post and need needed cement bonding to reapply. Mentioned these items to the host.

A wonderful getaway next to history and fun!
We had a lovely five-night stay, two tired parents and two kids. The house was clean, stylish, and had all the necessary amenities to make us feel “at home.” Great location, walking distance to shops and restaurants in historic Bardstown. The neighbors were also very friendly and welcoming! The kitchen is great, we made multiple meals together. And enough room for us ask to get away from each other, when we needed quiet time.This is a great house for a family or a group of friends to stay at. And the Bardstown area has so many activities a short drive away. There is so much more to do there than just bourbon tasting!

Fantastic Home!
We had a wonderful stay in Bardstown. The home was beautiful. We had a great time as a family playing games at the large dining room table, and relaxing in the comfortable living room. The beds were amazing, so soft. Everything was perfect. The neighborhood has the friendliest people, and we enjoyed meeting them and talking with them as well.

The house was perfect for our time here. It was beautifully decorated and well appointed with everything we needed for our stay! The location was great. We were so close to everything.
