Great home base for hitting the Bourbon Trail!
Oak & Barrel was a great place to stay for a weekend on the Bourbon Trail. Close to downtown and well located for heading south to bourbon country. Rebecca was very responsive and the house was neat & tidy and well stocked.

Cute house
The house was everything it was listed as. Very clean and decorated so cute. We had everything we needed. The neighborhood is older so you have various levels of quality. Some houses are maintained better than others. We needed to be in this area for our daughter so we were thrilled to have this nice rental option. Only negative was hearing the police sirens each night. That isn’t anything that can be helped and is just the nature of the area.I definitely recommend this rental.
