Cute little cabin. It was exactly what I expected from the description. The price was reasonable, and we enjoyed our stay.
Stayed here 2 nights at the end of our babymoon trip. Cabin was as described on site and located on a quiet street. Appreciated the local suggestions in the guestbook. Very peaceful and relaxing stay and would recommend to anyone looking for the same.
Great location and perfect for a long weekend. As mentioned in the description the steps to the house are a little daunting and steep but we did enjoy the house and loved we could being our pup with us. You can't beat the price for this house. Make sure to swing by Proud Mary's BBQ right down the road for good food and music!
We found multiple restaurants nearby which were all very good. We came for a concert at the Rupp Arena and the cabin was conveniently located. We especially enjoyed hiking at nearby Ravens Run. The communication with the host was excellent and the cabin was a special treasure! We were blessed to make some treasured memories!
Rustic/ modern mix just off the highway. Friendly neighbors who minded their own business and we had no problems whatsoever.
10 minutes away from downtown Lexington, yet felt like we were in the middle of small town USA.
I would definitely stay there again when I'm in the area.
Loved our stay and was sorry we had only stayed one night. Very well-equipped quaint and cozy cottage in a very pretty setting. Surprised to find something like this so conveniently located. We’ll be back!
We wanted a different experience and this cabin provided. It was decorated appropriately and quite cozy. There were some cracks in the planks and possibility of critters getting in but we had not issues with that. Fun cabin adventure stay.
We stayed here while visiting our son who goes to UK. It was exactly as listed. We knew going into it that the outside stairs were hazardous, but we took our time. Our dog enjoyed her stay as well. The price is right for this cozy cabin.
Old log cabin, steep old stone steps leading up to the cabin. Clean modern kitchen. Steep stairs to second floor living room, good Wi-Fi, comfortable chairs, couch, king size bed.
Easy drive to downtown Lexington and the racetrack, Five minutes to Proud Mary's for great BBQ and music.
This cabin has a great rustic feel and the location feels hidden despite being close to lots of stuff.
The only thing is watch out for the poison ivy growing all over, including both side of the front steps, creeping onto the stairs, and hanging just above your head on those same stairs.
We truly enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable and quaint. The stairs were treacherous for us old gals but we managed as we had a young friend with us. The kitchen not very well stocked if you are a cook but overall this was a lovely way to spend time with friends.
The neighborhood was not what I expected but everything worked out great. The Proud Mary's was a really fun experience for my husband and I! It was super crazy that out in the middle of nothing there was this super busy and hopping restaurant with live music! Really fun and really uniqu. Great overall experience!super busy
