4 of us friends got together for a birthday celebration. The home fit us perfectly. We were able to do the bourbon trail one day, and a horse farm the next. So much fun. Thanks for making this stay so memorable. We loved it!

Absolutely loved our stay! Melinda was a fantastic host—her communication was clear, quick, and incredibly helpful every step of the way. She was so kind and flexible, which made our experience even better. The property had such a warm, home-away-from-home feel that made it easy to relax and settle in. We’d absolutely stay again and highly recommend her place to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming getaway.

Family Trip

Our group of family met to visit a couple of distilleries. We chose this home due to the number of king size beds. It is so nice to have comfortable sleeping for so many. The large table allowed all of us to gather together. The house was so well stocked, everything you need!! It is beautiful home!

PGA Championship at Valhalla

This was the perfect property for our stay for the PGA championship. The place was charming and clean with all of the necessary amenities. It was a short walk to downtown and a quick drive to Kroger, etc. we particularly enjoyed sitting on the front porch and relaxing after a long day of walking at the course. Thanks again!

Great Weekend in Frankfort

We had a wonderful time at Bourbon Sunshine. The house is located close to the center of town, near multiple attractions. The parking in the back was spacious enough for our two large trucks. The space in the home was big enough and then some for our family of 7.

Very roomy, comfortable and clean

The stay was wonderful. The property was clean, everything in working order, and the property was plenty spacious. The beds were comfortable, the rooms private and the bathrooms in clean and perfectly good working order. The entrance was a bit tricky to find on our first time there, but the property itself was just as we expected. Multiple clean towels, rags, and everything needed for the bathroom. The kitchen was clean and plenty of glasses and plates to use. Great place and extremely comfortable.
