About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Guesthouse

Relax off the beaten path but close to conveniences! We are located within 8 miles to Maker’s Mark and Limestone Branch Distilleries, and 17 miles to Bardstown. We do live in the main house on the farm, detached and private from this unit.
It makes us the perfect getaway for 2 adults! (This unit has a maximum capacity of 2 adults with no exceptions) We pride ourselves on making this affordable, beautiful property, the perfect choice for your bourbon adventure.
Of special note:
If you are looking to be close to town then this probably isn’t for you. We are about 3.5 miles to a grocery store and 10 miles to Lebanon which is the largest town in the area with a Walmart.

This area is remote and surrounded by woods, creeks, and ponds. We do our absolute best to keep pests away from the residence but, unfortunately, they get in from time to time. We also have chickens that roam around and 3 cats that love people and tend to be lacking in manners.

While the internet works great most all the time, this property is in the country, with very limited options for service, outages can happen and are completely beyond our control. If you MUST have internet for your stay, we suggest you take this into consideration. Refunds will not be given for internet outage.

We do allow one dog, under 50lbs, with a pet fee of $30.00 per stay. We ask that you crate the dog when away and not allow the dog on the furniture. This rental is not appropriate for children, and has an absolute maximum capacity of two adults with no exceptions.

If you are looking for a clean, peaceful, relaxing getaway with plenty privacy then this is for you.

The area was quiet and was easy to relax in. The guesthouse had everything we needed. The only suggestion we have would be to maybe have a folder with some suggestions of things to do in the area or local restaurants and maybe instructions on working the TV. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend it.

Great country stay
Very remote location, quiet and peaceful with lots of nature to enjoy. Clean and welcoming accomodations, comfy bed, fire pit, friendly cats 'stalking' the property (so cute), and zero disturbances. Very close to Maker's Mark tour location. Would stay again.

Beautifully quiet location
My hubby and I were returning to Ohio from Gatlinburg and figured this would be a nice location to take a break fro the long drive and visit a distillery at the same time. We thoroughly enjoyed our “home for the night”, it was clean and very comfy. We appreciated the owners working with our rather uncertain schedule/travel time frame.

Sweet place along the Bourbon Trail
We really enjoyed our stay. It’s a small house but perfect for a couple. Clean, quiet, and all the amenities of home. The cats really made us feel welcome! It’s in the middle of farm country, which we loved, while still an easy drive to Bardstown.

Beautiful property close to distilleries
We wanted to stay somewhere that wasn’t a neighborhood and we found it! Small house had everything we needed and allowed our 12 year old dog! We visited distilleries all over and had a blast. If we come back to Kentucky we would stay here again.

Peaceful retreat
We found it as described- beautiful, peaceful, well stocked accommodations. Didn’t find iron, but didn’t request one-I know they would have provided one! Close to the sites we wanted to visit. Enjoyed the rural area. Would come again if in area. Thank you!!

Fantastic property
This little place is a gem. Peaceful nature at its best. Close by in Raywick there is a neat little burger bar. In Lebanon, there are a couple more local pubs and everything you can ask for. We used this place as base camp for the Kentucky Gun Season and it could not have been more perfect.

Kentucky countryside cottage
This wonderful cottage was perfect homebase for visiting bourbon distilleries. We loved the countryside location and we still traveled out each day to different areas. Our dog had an area to relax each afternoon outside. The hosts were super nice to us. The cottage had all you needed for a relaxing stay.

Will Stay Again
We were visiting our son and family. This property is a perfect fit for 1 or 2 people. It is country living, peace and quiet. If you are doing the bourbon trail, short distance to Heaven Hill, Makers Mark, Jim Beam and others. Greeted with a special treat upon arrival and they also stock plenty of extra toiletries if needed. We will return.

Perfect quiet rural getaway
Exactly what I was looking for - quiet, isolated, rural place. Clean, new, with all the amenities I needed. Saw deer every dusk. Very nicely decorated. Comfy bed. A+
