As advertised

A great location and very quiet area. House was very clean and well kept. We walked to most of our destinations due to the location which was very nice. Only constructive criticism i would give is a dead bolt lock on back door, some kind of foot stool and end table in living room. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect spot for a couple's getaway

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Guest House. The hosts' dog Doobie was an excellent greeter! The 1 bedroom Guest House was the perfect size and in a great location for our distillery tour vacation. Just blocks off the main streets in Bardstown, we were close to all our favorite spots but avoided the noise. The kitchen with full sized appliances was great for an extended weekend trip.

Great location

It was our first time to Kentucky and this was the perfect quaint little house in the perfect quaint little town. Everything was in walking distance. The civil war museum was down the street. You could also walk to all the restaurants and shops in the towns roundabout. You could park your car and not get back in it until you had to leave town.
