This was our second stay at A Bit of Bourbon, and we loved it again! Located in Midway’s historic district and close to Keeneland, it’s such a charming, convenient place to stay. Everything is super clean, and the fully equipped kitchen has everything you need. Tammy adds such thoughtful touches, leaving local treats like cookies, cupcakes, and even half a dozen eggs! Those little extras make you feel so welcome. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
Great place to stay. Host goes the extra mile in this unit. Lots of extra small stuff like chargers by the beds, fresh flowers, butter and creamer in the fridge and more! This unit is right in downtown MIDWAY where there is great shopping and restaurants. 20-30 mins from everywhere we wanted to go. Recommend this unit highly. We will definitely go again if in the area. If you’re lucky like we were you’ll run into the owners in town and find they are a great couple!
Nothing new to add to all the other glowing reviews! The place is fantastic! The only issue i had was I forgot my bed topper and the beds are firm. Everyone else slept well but im a princess and the pea person. :-)
The location was perfect for visiting distilleries and the Derby. Quaint town with great restaurants. Friendly hosts. Cozy, modern residence just right for two couples.
Everything was above my expectations. Exceptionally clean property which is a huge plus for me. Host was more than accommodating with parking due to an event in the area. The extra provided (cookies and a basket of local gifts) was appreciated. Perfect location for hitting up the local bourbon distilleries. Very cute town.
Tammy and Brian have a wonderful place that is just steps from the cute town of Midway. Their place has everything you need and some added extras. I highly recommend staying here. It perfect for 2 couples.
Surpassed my expectations. Usually we get to a house and spend a good amount of time cleaning a "clean" house. Not the situation here! Everything was up to my extremely high standards and the hosts missed no details. Midway is a wonderful, welcoming town and we would absolutely stay again! This is the best VRBO we've stayed in and we've stayed in many very good ones, but this one was exceptional!

Thank you so much for your kind words. We stave to make sure that our place is like one we’d like to stay. We would definitely love to host you again!
Clean, beautiful, and comfortable home. Inclusive of everything you need for a quality stay. Centralized location for bourbon, horse, and dining options. We would recommend this property to anyone.
Beautiful home in a fantastic area cin walking distance to downtown Midway. We absolutely loved our stay and all the sweet amenities our host left for us.
The Bit & Bourbon was a perfect place to stay for our few days on the Bourbon trail. The unit was very cozy and welcoming. There was a small electric fireplace, and the host left fresh flowers, cookies, and a nice gift basket ffull of local treasures! Both bedrooms had comfortable king beds. The location was great! We enjoyed the downtown areas in bith Midway and Versailles!
Perfect place for two couples, with luxurious king size beds. Immaculate and stocked with everything we could possibly need. The hosts were easy to reach and so welcoming. Midway is our favorite place to stay in Kentucky with shops and restaurants just steps away. Definitely our best visit yet.

Thank you for your wonderful review. We would love to have you visit again!
We loved Bit & Bourbon! Brian and Tammy are great hosts. Our family of four had everything we need: comfortable king beds, beautiful kitchen with breakfast nook, well-appointed bathrooms, and a cozy living room with a view of town and an electric fireplace. Just around the corner from Midway’s shops and restaurants, a park within walking distance, right in the middle of horse country. We highly recommend!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We would love to host you and your family again!
This place is very cute with some wonderful touches! You won’t find better hosts. The fresh eggs in the fridge and fresh baked cookies were delicious. Wish we could have spent more time exploring the area but just didn’t have the time. We will definitely come back and recommend this place to friends and family!
2 couples roaming Kentucky, enjoying the beauty and the bourbon. Bit & Bourbon was exactly as advertised and the location was excellent. Tammy was very responsive. Overall great stay. Would highly recommend and hope to return!
Time in the Bluegrass doing all the Bluegrass things. Bourbon and horses! A perfect location to experience it all, right in the middle of the most charming small town in America. Cozy little apartment with all the modern amenities.
There’s a reason they’re Premier Hosts. Reservation was easy and all inquiries were responded to promptly. Check in could not have been easier.
The location of this townhome is perfect for enjoying Horse Country, Bourbon Distilleries and restaurants.
The interior was spotless, perfectly decorated and we were greeted with local treats.
For 1-2 couples this is perfect. We had the best time and plan to return.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND 💕
It is clear why these are super hosts! Their thoughtfulness was apparent in every detail making for a delightful stay in a charming location. One note, some couples may want to know that both bedrooms and one full bath are upstairs while the other full bath is downstairs just off of the kitchen. It may be awkward for some. While I’m sure the stairs are to code, they may be difficult for some.

Thank you for your review. To address your concern everything meets code. It was inspected prior to opening.
This property was just what our family needed. After an long hot stressful day of moving our child into college, we were thrilled to come to a charming, clean, and peaceful property. We’ve stayed in maybe a dozen Vrbos over the years and this property ranks at the top. It is very clean and the well maintained. It has quality appliances and furnishings. The kitchen equipment and utensils were in wonderful condition and actually matched. I’ve been to some places were I think the owners bought their pots and pans at a local garage sale and have 15 pizza cutters and no spatulas. The owners also provide little extras that stood out to me. Gift basket with local goodies, fresh eggs, cell phone chargers by the bed, fresh flowers, and even soft toilet paper! They are easily accessible and communicate well prior to the stay. While we were down we looked at college campuses for our youngest. If she decides on a college around Lexington, this property will definable our go to place to stay when visiting. I didn’t even mention Midway is a charming town with some awesome dining options. We will definitely staying here again.

Thank you for the wonderful review! Our hope is that we treat our guest as we would like to be treated. We would love to have you guys again!
Loved the Bit and Bourbon! The house was clean, fresh, and had a beautifully made welcome basket stocked with local goodies! My dad loved the baked cookies that were awaiting our arrival. The booklet gave us information about restaurants and local favorite points of interest. The hosts were attentive to details and checked on us when a water main had broken on South Winter, expressing they were insuring that we had a supply of water. The kitchen was totally equipped for any and all cooking needs. The beds were so comfortable and made for great night's sleep or an afternoon nap..
