Check in was a breeze and the young woman at the desk was friendly. She told us when the fire would be started in the outdoor fireplace that night. We took advantage of the warm November night and sat by the fireplace..That was a great perk!

The property is unique as to the style of the rooms and the nostalgic look back at 1950s motor courts. My only knock on the property is that we must have removed about a dozen stink bugs from the room.

Great location for visiting local distilleries. Downtown Bardstown was only a 10-15 minute walk so we didn’t have to worry about driving after visiting a couple bourbon bars in town.

Amber, Cameron & the rest of staff were so kind & helpful. We had a minor hiccup & they took care of it. The heated salt pool & outdoor fire w/ s’mores was a great way to end a busy (bourbon) day. We’ll be back to the Bardstown Motor Lodge!

Room is real comfy, beds are great. They have a saltwater pool at 93 degrees! The staff was so friendly, makes you feel real welcome. The hotel is real close to the downtown area and right across the street is the My Old Kentucky Home State Park!
