Nice home in a good location, with walkability to some local bars and restaurants. Communication with the host was seamless as well as the check in process. The home was clean and looked as advertised. I am satisfied with my stay and would recommend it to others.

Great size space. Open area was great for medium size group to gather comfortably. Plenty of beds for group. Used this as home base for louder than life festival and was easy access. Diner right down the street open 24/7 was a lifesaver

KY Bourbon Trail

Group of 10 stayed 4 nights to tour the Bourbon trail. House was newly remodeled & very nice. Kitchen could have been better stocked. We had some plumbing issues, but owner responded quickly & got everything fixed and cleaned.
