Cabin in Kentucky Horse Country

Experience the beauty of Bourbon County in our newly renovated log cabin, located just 30 minutes from Lexington, KY and outside of Paris. Nestled on Stoner Creek in the midst of thoroughbred country, our cabin has been featured in various magazines and on TV, including the Peter Millar fall catalog. Our cabin sits on the banks of Stoner Creek (which is a small river). It is great for canoeing, hiking, fishing and horseback riding. A beautiful screened in porch awaits for you to enjoy a morning coffee while enjoying the trickle of the spring house and sounds of nature. The stone fireplace is perfect to warm up after a day enjoying the property. Canoe on the river, fishing, hiking, horseback riding on request, trap/skeet shooting on request, etc... Also, helicopter transport from local airports can be arranged from LEX, CVG, SDF or any local general aviation airfield. We are available anytime to make your stay more comfortable and have a full time farm manger as well. We are located in the middle of thoroughbred horse country. Many Kentucky Derby winners have been bred, stood stud, or stabled within 5 miles of our property: Gallant Fox 1930 Omaha 1935 Sea Biscuit - of course the little power house never won the Derby, but was named Horse of the Year 1938 and Champion Handicap Horse. Johnstown 1939 Jet Pilot 1947 Cannonaro II 1971 Riva Ridge 1972 Gato Del Sol 1982 Swale 1984 Ferdinand 1986 Sunday Silence 1989 Thunder Gulch 1995 Fusaichi Pegasus 2000 Orb 2013 You will need a car to get around and we have free private on site parking
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a dryer, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Memorable in the best of ways! A piece of heaven on earth. Beautiful rolling meadows, a winding creek at your doorstep, and the cabin-in-the-woods you dream about. Oh and sheep, a llama, and herds of horses (September) to watch and take in. Chet, Diane, and AJ are the perfect hosts with special touches throughout your stay. We WILL be back.

Perfect, as always.

Once again, our stay exceeded our expectations. We love every aspect of this piece of heaven on earth. From the unparalleled beauty of Kentucky’s rolling hills to the unique ability to experience a horse farm to the rest and relaxation that we don’t find anywhere else, Augustus Hill Farm holds SUCH a special place in our hearts. You will not regret any time spent there.

Just Peace

This is one of my very favorite cabins I have every stayed in. It was so beautifully decorated and had everything I needed. Chet and the farm manager went above and beyond to make my stay perfect. The farm was so peaceful. My favorite was that amazing back porch; but, I also loved sitting by the creek and watching the sun rise, visiting the animals and late night bonfires. There are other amazing farms minutes away to tour, and the Ark Encounter is only an hour drive. Paris, Kentucky is a quaint little town. I do wish they had more restaurants to visit. I would definitely love to return!!!

Wonderful in every way

If you are reading these reviews for The Cabin and debating to stay - depress submit. Whatever your intentions for a getaway, this is certainly the place to relax, unwind, enjoy a most comfortable atmosphere or go out and about in horse and bourbon country. Chett and his manager, Robert, were very attentive prior to and during our arrival. Make the getaway what you want: enjoying the peace and solitude of the cabin or taking in the beautiful horse country and various farm tours. We look forward to our next visit- hopefully in the fall. Very thankful for the treasured memories made during our stay. Kurt & Lia

Another World

Chet welcomed me to the world of Kentucky and horses in his historic log cabin. Cold nights were the perfect temperature for sitting by the fireplace and enjoying the quiet and dark of rural Kentucky. With little knowledge of horses, Chet arranged a magnificent tour of a local farm that gave me a glimpse into another world! His home is the perfect setting to explore the region.

***Absolutely stunning***

I can’t say enough about this place. We will definitely be back. The views are amazing! It’s like a little bit of Ireland in Kentucky. We went to the Kentucky Horse Park and Whispering Woods for some horseback riding. I think my favorite part was being able to roam the property and be in the fields with the horses. I can’t forget about our greeter, The Llama! Believe his name is Dr. Peoper. Chet and Robert were amazing hosts!!! Kept in contact with us during our stay for all of our needs. Thanks for such an amazing visit! This property truly is heaven.

Weekend Respite

I hesitate to write this review as I would like to keep this gem all to myself. If you are in need of unplugging and getting quiet, this is the place. Only 40 minutes outside of Lexington but a world apart. Darling cabin next to an almost river(you'll need to ask Robert, the caretaker, if you won't to know more🤗. Horses, sheep, and a llama to visit with. Actual wood burning fireplace!! Plus all the modern conveniences! WiFi not the best but then I didn't go to stay connected. Needless to say, I highly recommend!!

Tranquility at its best!

If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay in a gorgeous setting, this is the cabin for you. We had a short stay over New Year's Eve. The cabin is beautifully decorated, comfortable and had everything we needed. The property is absolutely gorgeous. The sunrises/sunsets are postcard worthy. Sitting on the porch listening to nature and the quietness was very relaxing. We spent a couple nights by the warmth of the fire as well. Chet is very welcoming and gave us plenty of recommendations for activities in the area. We can't wait to go back in the spring/summer when everything is green.

Lexington / Paris KY Country Cabin

I had another fabulous few days at Augustus Hill. The cabin has everything that you need to relax and enjoy the surrounding beauty of horse country. Sitting on the back porch looking out on the river - rain or shine - is one of my favorite places. Chet and Diane have created a wonderful place to escape. Robert will address anything that may come up (not that anything did!). I look forward to returning in a few months. As always, thank you!

Breathtakingly Idyllic

It there is a heaven on earth, it’s Augustus Hill Farm. We celebrated our 20th anniversary at the cabin. We walked, kayaked, read by the creek, listened to vinyl by the fire, watched each sunset, and breathed deeply. We talked, laughed, reminisced, pondered, and made plans for the the next 20! We’ve travelled quite a bit during marriage and both decided that our time at Augustus Hill has fed and nurtured our souls the most. We will undoubtedly return. Soon. Kate and Nate Carmel, Indiana

We had a wonderful stay at the log cabin! Chet was very engaging and informative. The log cabin was very unique which we really enjoyed. It was also cozy and very comfortable and really had anything we needed. The area that it is in is so beautiful, and the leaves were starting to turn. We would definitely book this gem again
