Huston House Review

I highly recommend the Huston House!! The house exceeded our expectations in every aspect and we will definitely come back!! You can tell that the owner (Kim) takes pride in the house and its upkeep. The linens and bedding were incredibly comfortable and with so many details throughout that you really felt like you were at home :)

Bardstown Bourbon Experience

The Huston House was perfect for our visit to Bardstown. Close to downtown shops and restaurants. The host, Kim, was very helpful and supplied all the amenities needed. The house was filled with books (several authored by our host) and games. The outdoor patio was perfect for after dinner beverages. We would highly recommend the Huston House.

Downtown is the place!

We absolutely loved the location of Huston house! We walked all over town, and enjoyed the shopping and food there, when we weren’t off visiting distilleries. Kim was great about communicating, and handled a small issue that we had with ants very promptly. The indoor and outdoor space here are amazing, and perfect for two couples. Would most definitely stay again!
