We loved our stay at Wishbone!! This house was perfect for five moms in town for our son’s Senior mom’s weekend time together at UK. Plenty of room to spread out or all be together around the table to eat or play games All of the beds were so comfortable, extras like coffee supplies, water & fresh flowers were added bonuses. Thank you for your warm hospitality!!

It was a wonderful stay. The house was very clean & had lots of amenities. The family room was very comfy with the large couch & fireplace. We are definitely considering coming back.
