About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Stay-cation! 2-Car Garage. 3 mi to I-65. Fire pit. Ping Pong. Cornhole. #family

At Horsepower Hangout of Kentucky, you will have loads of fun and experience southern hospitality at it's finest, in a relaxing, peaceful, spacious, safe, family-friendly location. The home sits on 1.3 acres with 30 mature trees. It's a great place to sit by the fire pit, relax in a hammock, and unwind on the front-porch swings. Close to local attractions like The National Corvette Museum (12 miles away), Mammoth Cave National Park (38 miles away), and Beech Bend Raceway (17 miles away)! The two-car garage is a safe-haven for your hot rods and motorcycles. Enjoy a full kitchen and a recreation room for hours of entertainment! Great for traveling families, couples, and groups.

Our mission and vision at “Horsepower Hangout of Kentucky” include “enjoying life” by eating, drinking, gathering with family/friends, and working with excellence. Life is short, so our mission is to enjoy our blessings every day and our vision is to share them with others (and that includes you)!

Throughout the home and property, you will experience a horse theme upstairs and a Corvette/Hot Rod theme downstairs. We chose our name and logo by combining our state’s equine industry (horseshoe) with the modern-day use of the term “horsepower” used by car and motorcycle enthusiasts (checkered flags).

Wonderful stay in a great location!

Absolutely loved our week-long stay. The house is so comfortable and has everything you could possibly need (I can’t believe you provided shower caps - absolute lifesaver!!) Crista is a brilliant host - excellent communication and you can tell how much love, care, and attention she has put into this home. The location is perfect - just a short drive from Mammoth Cave and Nashville, and all the amenities to enjoy a relaxing evening. We absolutely loved the fire-pit, and the kids loved all the board games and karaoke - this place has everything you need, and then some. Thank you for a wonderful spring break - we’d happily recommend this place to family and friends, and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. 5 stars, across the board!!

Best VRBO Experience To Date

We had a such a wonderful experience at Horsepower Hangout. The home was exactly as described and better than we expected. It was beautifully decorated - Chip and Joanna would be proud! One of the things that we liked best was that all drawers in the kitchen and throughout the house were labeled so you knew exactly where things were located. There were little touches throughout, including waters in the fridge, noise makers in all the rooms (not needed since it is a secluded location) and high-quality TP and shampoos in the bathrooms. Communication was Crista was excellent. She quickly responded to our questions, accommodated an early check-in and was flexible to allow for more than one dog. When we realized that a few kitchen items we needed to prepare for Christmas dinner weren't included, she came by to drop off those specific items and a bouquet of flowers within 15 minutes. Wow! We would highly recommend this property and we look forward to staying again the next time we're visiting BG to see family.

Such a lovely home

We absolutely loved our stay at this property. The home is just perfect, and Crista is the most amazing host. No detail was missed throughout the home—in fact, she thought of things you might need even before you knew you needed them! Plenty of space, the beds were super comfortable (so comfortable I had to find out what sheets were on our bed so I could buy them for myself!). The outdoor space is also fantastic—the large front porch with swings, pillows, and blankets, and the awesome fire pit with surrounding adirondack chairs made for a lovely Saturday afternoon with cocktails. The Fall colors at their best too. It felt like we were a million miles away from it all, even though we were so close to Bowling Green. I highly recommend this property!

The minute we arrived at the house we knew we had found the ideal house. It offered something for all of us with outdoor spaces and the game room. It was a haven for the kids including the big kids.

Best place I have ever stayed on vacation!!

This house is awesome! It was so nice and warm feeling just like home. You don’t have to worry about if you forgot something or something for the kids to do. We took our whole family dogs included. From the time you walk in you will be amazed. Everything is labeled meticulously. So no guess where anything is. Everything you could think of is there. Have never stayed any where that had a 2 car garage to park. There was plenty of games and toys for all the kids. The beds was super comfortable. If you are in the bowling green area and ain’t stay here it’s your loss! The owner Crista was super nice and communicated very quickly. As I said best rental I have ever experienced hands down!!

Family time, Fall leaves and Mammoth Cave

We used this lovely home as a base for a 2-night getaway to explore Mammoth Cave (around a 45-minute drive away). In all the years we have been renting homes, there has never been one as well stocked as this one. The owners have thought of everything. The home is clean, cozy and filled with gems in each room. My favorite place was the front porch, and we all loved the games in the basement and garage. We brought our dog with us as well and he loved all the space outside to run around. All the messages received from Crista show how much the owners truly want you to enjoy their home. We were all sad to leave. Thanks so much for everything!

Amazing, fun & relaxing

My husband & I would highly recommend this VRBO. It is beautifully & thoughtfully decorated in a farmhouse style with touches of Kentucky throughout. Everything you would think that you need is there, from the inside to the outside.Our hosts were exceptionally responsive to every need we had & responded to texts immediately, even though they were away on vacation! What we enjoyed most, however, was the amazing variety of amenities.We choose to relax by swinging on the front porch swing & sitting by the bird feeder & watching the birds. We enjoyed playing the new electronic basketball game with family that visited & "old school " ping pong & checkers.Making a fire in the firepit with firewood provided always made the ending to the day just perfect. The only reason we are giving a 5 is because we can't give a 6!!
