We were very pleased with this property. It was adequately stocked with what we needed and Nicole was pleasant and easy to work with. Great location for our “Bourbon Trail” activities. It was so much cozier for our two families than what hotel rooms could have offered.

Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful 2 bdrm home. Perfect for 2 people, absolutely spotless, well maintained and in a great location to everything in Bardstown. We easily walked to dinner, local bars and shops. Well stocked, comfortable bed, nice size kitchen and living room. It is on a busy street so night time you can hear the traffic, but turned on a white noise app and that solved it. I'd stay here again.

It was a very clean and cute place on the inside. The outside needed some attention. It was on a very busy street but well worth being close to town. Has a cute porch with rockers and a swing. Owner provided everything we needed for our stay and easy to work with!

Clean and comfortable! The host was extremely easy to communicate with, and I did not run into any issues. Very close to downtown, which was very convenient. A great place to unwind after a long day on the bourbon trail.

Location was good for walking into town. The cottage was very neat, clean, supplied. The host was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The road can be a bit busy but it does quiet down in the evening. All in all, it was a very nice stay.

The house was clean, quaint and well appointed for guests. We visited Bardstown with another couple and I made the reservations for our group . Nicole was pleasant and graciously answered any and all questions before and during our stay. Appreciated the hospitality and suggestions for restaurants and local attractions. Check-out instructions were clear and concise. Thank you for sharing your home.

The location of the cottage is perfect for a visit to many distilleries as well as things for a non-bourbon drinking wife to enjoy. Bardstown itself is a lovely town.
