Family trip

We had a great stay here. They did a great job renovating and still left a lot of the character of the house. It was close to everything and very clean. The only downside was it was a bit noisy with the traffic at night but we used our white noise app on our phone and that helped. Thank you for a great stay.

bourbon experience

The house was everything that was advertised and then some! We would highly recommend it We have stayed at a few other VRBO's and this was "Hands Down" the best we have experienced! Some of the other reviews mentioned the street noise as some what of a problem but our group was not bothered by it. Yes we heard it , but not enough to mention it in the review. Thank you again for a wonderful stay Kim!

Bourbon distillery tour

The house was perfect for 3 couples visiting the area for 4 days. Could walk to restaurants etc. We enjoyed 2 nights at the Stephen Foster outdoor theater But…the house sits on the corner with stop light of a main highway. Very very loud for sleeping.

Great location when visiting the Bourbon Trail

This was our second time to this property with friends booking the first time. That should tell you how much we enjoy this property! The only issue of note was hot water did not last long enough with 6 adults taking showers in the morning. You just need to space these out. I would recommend this location to anyone coming to enjoy the area! We will be back. :)

The BEST!!!

We loved this house! It was perfect for 3 couples. We used all parts of this house but we spent most of our time in the kitchen area. We used the large kitchen table for games and morning coffee. The bedrooms were enormous and super comfortable. We each had our own bathroom. Yay! The house is right downtown so we walked to dinner every night. As others have said, the road noise at night and early morning is pretty loud. But if wouldn't keep us from staying at this awesome house again!!

Comfortable and great location!

Our group of friends had a wonderful stay! This place has plenty of parking, outdoor space, plenty of places to hang out inside, great bathrooms and comfortable bedrooms! We were a group of 6 and could sit and talk as a group or find our own nook to hang out in easily. Great decor and amenities. You cannot beat the location if you want to walk downtown Bardstown!

Beautiful Home

What a wonderful discovery this home was. Beautifully restored 1800s home in a fantastic location. The home was a combination of modern updates with original painted plank floors. Extremely warm and welcoming. It was well-equipped with everything you would need just like being in your own home.You can't beat the location. It is a very short walk to the visitor's center, dining, and the main shopping street. Every distillery is within a short drive if you are there for bourbon tours.If you are looking for comfort and charm, then this is the place to stay. It was very cold while we were there, but there is a nicely shaded patio at ground level and a deck off of one of the bedrooms on the second floor.I would definitely stay here again if we return to the area and would recommend it as an easy first choice for anyone visiting Bardstown.The hostess was very friendly and easy to contact before, during, and after our stay.

Bourbon with Friends

You will love this centrally located historic home in downtown Bardstown. Within easy walking distance of extraordinary restaurant options. The house is super clean and well appointed. The decor is fresh and the kitchen has all the necessary housewares if you decide to "stay in" for supper. There is some traffic noise but a white noise app on your cell phone easily neutralizes any outside noises. We stayed at the house with a group of friends while doing the Bourbon Trail.

Wonderful house and location.

This house is beautiful and perfect for a group of friends traveling together. The owner is very nice and responsive to requests for info. The house is located within in walking distance of several restaurants and cute shops in downtown Bardstown. It is also an easy drive to several other sites in Louisville, Frankfurt and the surrounding areas. I have stayed here twice and will stay again on my next visit to Bardstown!

Great house in a great location!

Two couples stayed here as home base for a long weekend filled with bourbon trail activities. The house was perfect. Within walking distance to several restaurants, both for breakfast and dinner. It was pretty well equipped (although we never cooked in so I can’t comment on the kitchen supplies). The beds upstairs were firm. Worked great for my husband but a little hard for me. And we did hear street noise but that’s to be expected based on location. For us, it wasn’t an issue with a little white noise from our phones.
