WOW! What a beautiful home with excellent owners. We spent two days at Passmore Place in Dec. 2011 for my daughter's college graduation from Western Kentucky University. The house is well equipped, nicely kept and has everything you need. We had 18 family members and plenty of room for everyone. It was a short 30 minute drive to Western. Since it was also Christmas, we shared a very special time together and they even provided a beautiful tree for us to enjoy. We needed a house that was handicap accessible and told the owners and they put a wheelchair ramp in place for us at the side entrance which worked out perfectly. I only wish it were summer so we could have enjoyed the pool! Thanks so much for some very special memories, I highly recommend this rental.

New Years Eve with family at Passmore Place!

We had extended family visiting over the New Years weekend and our small house wouldn't hold everyone, so we found Passmore Place and were thrilled that we could all fit comfortably under one roof. We had 5 adults, 3 children,1 baby and the house had everything we needed, plus it had a play room upstairs complete with toys! The boys (ages 6 & 3yrs.) spent hours playing and building puzzles, which allowed the adults to play dice games downstairs. The 14 yr. old loved the top bedroom that was nestled away in the peak of the house! The main floor had a large eat-in kitchen (with every pot, pan, appliance, or tool that we needed) with a table that could seat 10, plus a comfortable den (with a full bath) off of that where some of us watched TV while others watched the large screen TV in the formal LR. The nicest touch was the tall Christmas tree in the formal dining room that was decorated & lit when we arrived after dark! This really felt like home!!! Also on this level is the MBR which has a study (complete with fireplace & comfy furniture) that you can enter thru pocket doors. The MBA glass shower was HUGE & the linen closet held many small blankets in which to wrap ourselves while we watched the ball drop on New Years Eve! The upstairs held the other bedrooms & baths, which are nicely laid out. 2 shared a Jack-n-Jill bath, 1 had a private bath, and the other 2 didn't have any bathrooms. You couldn't hear much noise from upstairs at all, even with 2 active little boys. Since it was winter we did not use the pool, but I can only imagine how nice it is in the summer. The flow of the house was very comfortable & none of us had any complaints, except for we all had backaches from the beds. Next time we'll just bring air mattresses to put on top of the beds and problem solved. Believe me, this is not a deal breaker for us. We loved the house so much that we're willing to do what we can to make it work for us next time. The house is easy to find and just a few blocks off the main street in Cave City. It is surrounded by land, has houses nearby so you're not out in the wilderness, but is within earshot of the rail road (no biggie). All the restaurants & tourist attractions are within an easy drive. We'd like to thank the owners for being so hospitable & good to work with. They helped us have the best New Years Eve weekend & we made wonderful family memories that we hope to do this again every year!

Our family stayed here to celebrate our mother's 80th birthday. It rained practically the whole time that we were there but that didn't dampen our spirits.The owner was wonderful to work with in meeting our needs.. She was very helpful in answering any type of question that we had before arriving. The listing was very accurate & the photos did show the home as it was. The house is huge & the yard is spacious!! The first thing we all did was just go around & look at all the rooms. It was a wonderful stay!! We were all very impressed & would go back again. The rates are very reasonable too. Thanks so much!

We stayed at Passmore Place as part of a reunion group. Our 5 families had traveled to China 8 years ago to adopt our children, and we needed a large property, centrally located to accommodate our group. The 5 families brought kids ranging in age from 16 to 3. The house is gorgeous. Each family walked in from their travels and commented "Wow, it's beautiful! Great choice!" The grounds were a little bit ragged, but the area's had a lot of water damage and I'm sure it was a timing issue. It is a wonderful property. That said, I'd recommend asking lots of questions about the house setup if you have a large group like ours and will be sharing bathrooms. Only 2 of the bedrooms have a private bathroom; two of them share a bathroom. One sleep area is really intriguing; it's two twin beds on the first level (perfect for the 2 teen girls in our group) then stairs to a loft-style full size bed area. That configuration does not boast a bathroom, however. There is a full bathroom off the pool area which that family used, but it was a bit inconvenient for them. That being said, the house is quite large and has multiple sitting areas that are well decorated and very inviting. The pool was immaculate and hugely popular with our group. The kitchen was also well scrubbed and stocked with necessities, and there are two dining areas. Overall, the property was amazingly clean and well maintained. I'd definitely recommend it to a flexible, close-knit group.

Three families spent three days at the property. It was clean, well-stocked and very comfortable for 10 people (7 children). The listing was very accurate, and the photos did show the home as it was. It was very centrally located as well for Kentucky Down Under, Mammoth Cave and Dinosaur World. We weren't more than 10 minutes away for those attractions. We hope to stay again. Thanks!

You have a beautiful home and we appreciate you letting us, The Adult Dept. of Sweetwater C.M.E. church in MS, use your home for the week. This was just what we needed. This home will be among the places we plan to visit again.

Here we are from TN, AL, and IN on our 2nd annual cousins weekend. We came together and laughed, cried but more importantly we were with each other. We missed the ones who couldn't be with us but were greatful for the ones who could. We'll be back next year to experience as much fun as we had this year.
