My brother, nephew, and I stayed here during Bourbon and Beyond music festival. This place was immaculate and the renovation was well done. The quality of the materials and decor was top notch. The kitchen was well stocked with whatever you may need for cooking. In the living room, you have a glowing fire with just a push of a button. Nice ambiance! The backyard was equipped with 2 patio dining tables and chairs, a seating area with a gas fire, and a grill. It was nice to sit outside and relax. The beds , oh the beds were so comfy! Brandon, our host, was receptive and quick to respond to any needs. I highly recommend booking this!

Enjoyed our time at this house immensely! My honest rating is a 4.5 stars as all aspects of the house and contact with the host was great but the location (access to everywhere was perfect) being on a corner lot meant lots of traffic so you get to hear a lot of cars and radios going by. This didn’t detract from the great backyard space at the house as you can’t see the traffic, just hear it. Plenty of outdoor seating and fire pit was perfect to sit around in the evening. There was space enough in the house that our family of 7 all had spaces to sleep, be away from each other, room to eat together, and watch movies together. The check-in/out process was easy as could be and communication with the host was quick and concerns handled immediately. Everything we needed was provided for and we were able to utilize the well stocked kitchen daily feeling like we were still at home. If we are ever in the area again I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!!

This house is absolutely beautiful and so well stocked. If you are looking for a house that feels like you are on the bourbon trail this is the house for you. Plus it was so clean and had everything we need including a crock pot to cook dinner. The property managers communicate very well and were very kind.
