Cozy Bourbon Country Cabin with HOT TUB and Fire Pit on Brashears Creek

Located on beautiful Brashears Creek in the heart of Bourbon Country, this loft style cedar cabin makes a great central location to visit some local distilleries and wineries. It is also a great place to stay for anyone who might be in the area for a horse show or interested in antique shopping along Shelbyville's historical Main Street. My personal favorite thing to do at the cabin is enjoy the creek. We love to canoe, kayak or even just float on a raft depending on the conditions.

To ensure the safety of you and other guests, please follow the hot tub rules posted. DO NOT leave children unattended in or near the hot tub.

We make every effort to keep the hot tub functional, hot and ready for each guest to enjoy. There is no guarantee that a mechanical failure can be repaired, as parts may need to be ordered. There will be no refunds or discounts due to a hot tub malfunction, and damage to the hot tubs, covers, and filters will be assessed to you.

Pretty chill guy

The property was really cozy, warm, and inviting. Hosts were extremely timely in response to concerns. We did not use the hot. But did take a walk to the water. Only issues we had were 1-2 birds flying in to the heater and making an incorrect vehicle choce for the drive there ( gravel roads for the last little bit to the cabin)

Peaceful property centrally located between Louisville and Lexington. Cabin felt like home with all the amenities. Beds were a tad small as a previous review stated but that did not affect our stay. Water pressure for shower dipped if using water elsewhere at the same time but that is to be expected with a well. Also, did not affect our stay. The hot tub was an added bonus and centrally located for serene views. Highly recommend!!

Wonderful Getaway

Our stay was great from beginning to end. The cabin had all the amenities you could need and then some. The owners have thought of pretty much everything. Any questions we had were quickly answered by the owners as well. The bed was soft and comfortable. We didn't use the kitchen much, but it was nice having a full one available. We enjoyed the quiet of the area immensely. My husband and I had a wonderful stay while checking out the bourbon trail. If we're ever back this way, we'll be staying here again! Side note - if you have Verizon, be aware that service is pretty spotty.

Awesome stay for PGA @ Valhalla

My dad and I had a great stay at the cabin. We were in town for the PGA Championship at Valhalla and the cabin was a great place to unwind after a long day in the course. Lots of great golf courses around the area to play as well! Thank you for such a wonderful stay! We felt very safe and comfortable at the cabin!

Awesome!

This is a great little cabin in a perfect location. Just be careful on your journey to and from the property as the road is narrow, and there is wildlife. And just like a cabin, bring everything you may think you will need as there is nothing "close". The host is gracious and easy to communicate with. We are plannimg on visiting again with more friends next year.

BOURBON TRAIL 2

Great property situated between our destinations on the trail. The stream across the street was a nice bonus. Rustic cabin was perfect setting for our trip.Loved the old leg tub and shower! The cabin is dark with not the best lighting. Prepping food on the kitchen countertop required strategic angles not to cast a shadow. Grill and hot tub are well maintained. The small truffle/trundle bed upstairs is not adequate for an adult, maybe a small child. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Time to disconnect!

This place was fabulous! It was perfect for our needs. It had all the creature comforts needed for a relaxing “disconnected from everything” weekend. We spent most of the weekend out at the fire pit and walking the creek. If you are looking for time outdoors and a way to enjoy time away from the hustle and bustle, this is the perfect place.

Very nice cabin. Could have been cleaner lots of weird smells in the linens and lots of cob webs everywhere. But it was very comfortable and quiet. I usually do not get maid duties given to me at 275 bucks a night after I have checked in. Ha but we left in a hurry and I did not finish all off my chores . There really was a weird fabreeze cover up kind of smell on the upstairs bed sheets and they would not stay on the bed . Overall tho this was a great place to enjoy peace and quiet

Beautiful cabin in the country

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin in the Kentucky countryside! It was absolutely perfect for our family of three and we enjoyed every minute! It lies on a huge parcel of land with peaceful views in all directions. It stayed cool when we needed it cool and warm inside when we needed it warm. Shower, washer/dryer, TV, hot tub all worked great! We cooked a couple of memorable meals in the kitchen and had some great family time outside and by the creek. We heard owls at night! Thank you, Gwen for sharing your cabin with us and being so easy to work with. We hope to make this an annual trip!

Great location for visiting all of the distilleries! We visited around 8 and went downtown Louisville for a day and everything we wanted to do was in a nice driving distance. The cabin was itself was great, had everything we needed, it was private and quiet, we enjoyed the creek and starting a fire one night! We’ll be back to stay here if we make our way back to Kentucky!
