Spacious house with plenty of sleeping options

The check in process was easy. The property manager was easy to communicate with and did so quickly. I traveled with a group of 6 teenagers and they loved it! There were arcade games as well as a Nintendo switch. They played on the basketball court in the back yard. One bedroom had 4 beds and it was still roomy. Another room had 3 beds and it was spacious. 2 master bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms on the main floor allowed for privacy. Several restaurants and a Walmart were within a 5 minute drive. I highly recommend this place.

Family Visit

I live here around Bardstown and my kiddos and grandbabies came in to visit from NC, I've always know the neighborhood so I was thrilled to see this listing which is in walking distance to town. The home was beautiful inside and big enough to entertain family with also a huge back yard for us adults and the kids to play. I recommend this beautiful place and thank the owners for quick responses to questions.

Perfect getaway spot

The house was in a super quiet neighborhood conveniently located to the center of Bardstown. The beds were so incredibly comfortable that I wished I could have taken them with me on the plane home. And the host was super generous to allow the use of all of their games. They even left a few snacks on the counter which was a very pleasant surprise. If we ever go back to Bardstown we’re definitely staying here again. 10/10 do recommend.

Great jumping point in Bardstown!

Nice, quiet property located in an older family neighborhood. House is super spacious. Kitchen charming. More room than you can ever use! Spacious yard for pets to walk and sniff. Beds have nice memory foam mattresses. Would stay again for a quick trip where convenience is paramount. Only feedback is back porch and grounds could use some maintenance but this didn’t affect our stay. Location location location!
