  This place was simply amazing to stay at. The rooms were huge and accomodating for everyone to sleep comfortably in. Caron undersold how beautiful the property is and how peaceful it was just being out in the countryside. It was great to not be stuck in a hotel room with 8 people trying to spend time together and the house was the perfect place to stay. It is close to several distilleries so you didn't feel like you were in the car driving all day. Caron's recommendations and delicious ham were great and made things much easier for all. We will definitely be back to stay when we do the trail again.

  The property is beautiful and far enough away from it all to have peace and quiet. The nearest town is still close enough to get anything you need to as well. An excellent base to visit the bourbon trail or to do some hiking in the area. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The rooms were all generously sized including the bathrooms. The owner's were extremely friendly and helpful as well. We're already trying to figure out when we can go back.

  The long weekend was a sibling retreat of sorts. All six of us really enjoyed this great place. Well appointed with everything we could want, absolutely beautiful rolling countryside complete with cows. We noticed that the farm workers were respectful of our stay as well, turning off their headlights while near the house in the dark on their way back to check on the cattle. The breakfast goodies that Caron left us were a nice welcoming touch. We came for the bourbon trail, but our stay here is what made the weekend special. We will certainly return. Thanks for making a memory!

  This place is a hidden treasure. Clean and comfortable accommodations within the quiet setting of the Kentucky farm lands. The house was perfect for our group of four 50+ guys down for the Bourbon Trail tour. The owner made sure that our stay was enjoyable by providing information about local interest and also left us with ham biscuits for breakfast. The front porch was a great place to relax after a day of touring. Lets just say a few bottles of Kentucky's best and cigars were enjoyed on the porch. We will be back!

  This is the perfect getaway! The pictures cannot convey the peace and serenity that surround you as you stay at this beautiful home. It is true southern hospitality! The house is centrally located to so many things and the owner has brochures and maps for all! We had a wonderful time and will definitely stay again.

  Simply put, this home is fantastic! We rented this home due to the location along the Bourbon Trail and we were seeking a place with some extra space. The setting is amazing and if you enjoy "country life" you cannot get any better than this home. Caron and Tom (host) were extremely friendly and went out of their way to welcome us to the area. Over the past several years, I have used VRBO to find places to vacation and I have never been disappointed. However, this property is one of the cleanest and most well equipped properties I have rented.

  We rented this home because of its location to the Bourbon Trail. Two couples stayed in the house and it was more than enough room. We never went into the TV room, living room, or the dining room because the house was so large we didn’t need to. Most of our time was spent on the front porch at night. Beautiful views of the sunset and cool nights even in late July. It was quiet, very clean and Caron was very nice and helpful. She even left us yummy ham & biscuits for our first morning. I would recommend this to anyone. A vacation that we will treasure for a long time. We are already planning on going back and plan on staying at Tucker Farm.

  Our group stayed here while we traveled the Bourbon Trail through the middle of Kentucky. The farm and the home are absolutely beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this home to other travelers. The home owner was very gracious and accommodating

  A beautiful home in a very attractive and peaceful setting! The house was even nicer than described, with many extra amenities. Very well stocked kitchen and bathrooms that were exceptionally neat and clean, as was the entire home. We spent time with friends from Colorado, celebrating an anniversary. Enjoyed hors'd oeuvres on the front porch, played cards on the picnic table and savored the peace and quiet. Managed to visit all the distilleries on the Bourbon Trail, toured the Cooperage in Lebanon, visited Keeneland and the Kentucky Horse Park. (Don't miss the new Micro Distillery in Lebanon--Limestone Branch). Our hostess was very helpful and pleasant to meet. Would definately stay in this property again.

  This is a great location for total relaxation! It could also be a great place for weddings or family reunions. The home is truly a gem. The grounds are lush, green rolling hills with a beautiful tree lined driveway. Our party of four spent every evening relaxing on the columned front porch watching the sunset. Don't miss this one. The owner is a warm and friendly host seeing to all your needs.

  We had an incredible and relaxing time at this farmhouse. There was a great storm that rolled in on Friday night. We could see it in all directions. Amazing. The amenities were very comfortable. The place was very well-stocked with extra sheets, toiletries, and so forth. The owners had even made muffins for us and gave complimentary biscuits and ham! I really hope to stay there again in the near future.

  If you are looking for a wonderful home with beautiful, peaceful surroundings, this is the place to stay! I stayed at this home with several of my friends for a Christmas gathering...we could not have asked for anything more! The owner of the home is a lovely hostess! The home itself is very comfortable with a warm, cozy feel, but yet has large, spacious rooms. It has all the amenities you could possibly need. It is the perfect setting for a getaway with family or friends.

  We had an amazing time celebrating my dad's birthday here! My mom is very particular about where she stays and the decor and cleanliness far exceeded her expectations. It is a perfect relaxation getaway on beautiful farmland. The owner of the house is wonderful, you can tell she really cares about her guests. Her hospitality was wonderful and much appreciated.

  Rented the house with a couple of buddies to tour bourbon country and had a wonderful time. All the other reviewers say it all...beautiful setting and scenery, complete privacy and centrally located for touring the distilleries. Hated to leave....would have stayed a whole week, but made the mistake of inviting some people who had to go back to work early.....that won't happen again. Can't recommend it enough!

  We rented the house for a long weekend with two other couples. The location is perfect for exploring the Bourbon Country as well as day trips to places like Mammoth Cave, Lexington and Bowling Green. The farm setting is very peaceful and quiet. The house is in great shape and was immaculately prepared for our arrival. Communication with the owners was prompt and courteous. They really went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed the stay. We had a great time here and can highly recommend it. If you're looking for a taste of country living with all the conveniences this house certainly fits the bill.

  We spent 3 days here with friends. It was wonderful from the minute we met the owner and were taken to our home away from home. Caron and Tom are wonderful hosts, providing us with a breakfast of country ham and biscuts as well as homemade muffins. We couldn't have asked for anything better. It was great to travel the Bourbon Trail and come back to such a comfortable, clean house. We hope to be back again.

  Owner response: We are so glad you enjoyed you time on the farm, trekking the bourbon trail during the day and then relaxing and enjoying farm living.

  We spent 5 wonderful days here and can't wait to come back. The home was spotless, the owners were friendly and more than accommodating, stocking the kitchen, pantry, laundry and baths with just about anything you could need. In over a decade of renting vacation homes from owners, this was truly one of our very best experiences. The home is spacious, the beds are comfortable, and the property is peaceful and serene. We had a mini family reunion here and everyone had a great time. Brought our bikes and outdoor play gear (ladder ball, etc.) and spent most of our days just enjoying this spacious home and all it had to offer. However, we did explore the Bardstown and Lebanon areas, which have much to offer. The guys golfed at My Old KY Home State Park (nice and inexpensive golf course), we had lunch at the Old Talbott Inn, and shopped all the great little shops in Bardstown, where we also took in a movie. Also fit in wine and bourbon tastings. We will definitely come back.

  I highly recommend this property! Not only is the scenery beautiful and peaceful, the home is impeccable and spotless. The beds are extremely comfortable (very important) and all the amentities provided are first class. The owner was very helpful in whatever we needed, from providing detailed brochures of places to visit in the area to local (non-chain) restaurant suggestions. I truly felt "at home" here and enjoyed the time with my dogs (Yorkies) who were able to run freely without my worry or concern for their safety. The fireworks over the 4th of July were minimal (the reason I chose the Tucker Farm), as my dogs are petrified of the noise. This made for an even more relaxing experience for myself. I can't wait to come back! Thank you for opening your beautiful home for others to enjoy!

  Owner response: Thank you for such kind comments. We love the ever changing scenery, privacy and the comfort of farm living. The changing colors of the leaves in the fall is spectacular.
