Bardstown Guest House
This place was perfect for our stay in Bardstown. Walking distance to downtown Bardstown and many sites in town. Perfect home base for the Bourbon Trail. The Guest House was comfortable and well outfitted. The farm fresh eggs and homemade pancake mix was a nice touch! We didn't have the best weather and were unable to take out the ebikes. There's always next time!

Anniversary Get Away
Once upon a time, our adventure began in the quaint little town of Bardstown, Kentucky, nestled snugly in the rolling hills. We embraced history, stepping back into the early 1800s as we checked into a guest house straight out of a storybook. As we pulled up, our welcoming committee awaited us: none other than the owner's four-legged ambassador, the furry guardian of the gates. Yes, you guessed it - a dog wagging its tail like a town crier announcing our arrival. And let me tell you, that fence was not just for decoration; it was a fortress guarding against any unwelcome intruders (or overly enthusiastic guests). But beyond the fence lay a slice of paradise. With its weathered charm and timeless allure, the guest was a sanctuary from the modern world. And yet, just a stone's throw away lay the heartbeat of Bardstown - its main street. Ah, the main street! A bustling boulevard filled with treasures aplenty. From the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafting from cozy cafes to the tantalizing scents of handmade soap and candles teasing our senses, it was an array of delights. And let's not forget the charming boutiques, where every piece of clothing seemed to whisper, "Take me home!" As the days unfolded like pages in a delightful novel, we found ourselves enchanted by Bardstown's magic. And amidst it all, our historic guest house stood as a beacon of comfort and nostalgia. Would we return? Absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt. For in Bardstown, every corner holds a story,

This was perfect for us! Just the right size and had everything we needed. Perfect location within walking distance to all shops and restaurants in the downtown area. The host was super helpful since we had a hard time accessing the VRBO app. The only negative was no internet connection. We needed to access a zoom meeting and were not able to. Would definitely recommend to friends.

Wonderful Getaway!
My husband and I were supposed to be on a cruise but it got cancelled so we decided to do a short kid-free getaway to Bardstown. This cottage was perfect for us! It’s so clean and it within walking distance of the downtown square! We walked everywhere and enjoyed tons of yummy bourbon! I highly recommend this cottage. The only thing that could’ve been better was if it had a king size bed instead of a queen but that’s just a small detail.
