Great place to spend the holidays with a large family!

The house was nicely decorated for Christmas including a Christmas tree. I had a large family arriving at different days during the week. The only thing that would have made it better would have been a bathroom in the downstairs area. I would definitely stay there again!

Great setting in central location

Location central to Shaker Village, Danville and Lexington - we spent a day in each, along with several tours on the Bourbon Trail. The house provided a wonderful gathering place, with kitchen/living room, front porch and firepit. Enjoyed the rural location, with lots of walks in the neighborhood. The house has been nicely updated and has lots of nice decorating touches. Very comfortable for our group of 6 senior (or almost senior) women.

Family Wedding

Came for a Family Wedding. Stayed from a Friday to Sunday. Danville KY was about 30 Minutes away. It's the closest city, enjoyed the shopping area. Had a Bk, McDonald's, Cracker Barrel and a Pizza/Italian Buffet called Giovanni's very good. Has a Walmart and Ollie's. Good location to check out for shopping. House was Beautiful inside, nice setup upstairs and downstairs. Hopefully Host got toilet downstairs in full working condition so you can have full use of toilet & tub. All in all we had a nice Visit.

The house was nice and kept up. Built on the side of a hill so the road was almost above the house roof. Needed to use the 4x4 a couple of times to get on the road. Not much of a drive way but again not a major deal. Was informed the first day of our booking that the pool pressure gauge was broken the day before, the owner had ordered the part, but didn’t know if it would be fixed during our stay. The owner said that the pool was clear and ph level and chlorine were good. I have included a picture of the pool to let you be the judge. This fix should not have taken over 5 days had someone actually tried. I’m sure this part could have been found somewhere in the surrounding area had someone actually tried. The landscaping of the house looked like it hadn’t been touch since spring. Being on the side of a hill, didn’t leave much desire to have little ones playing outside.

The property was amazing. Had a few issues when we were there. The pump on the pool never turned on that we know of. The down stairs bathroom would not drain properly and we could not use the toilet.

The house is very nice and Mark was very helpful in answering my questions before we arrived. However, it was unclear in the description and comments as to where the bathrooms are located. They are both upstairs. The "kitchenette" in the basement does not have any running water or dishes, so it would be difficult to use. There was also only seating for seven so I am glad we brought a card table to set up so we could sit together for meals or to play games. It would be nice to have a table in the basement as well. The fire pit was great and we did enjoy the pool. And the location was very peaceful. However, there was an odor of the septic system and we did not find access to even view the lake from the property. This was the first property that I rented where the owner required that either insurance be taken out or a 3000 deposit be made. That was annoying as Vrbo advertised the price as the total, but when we went to pay it was almost 200 more for the insurance and taxes. I would expect that most people would be careful and would pay if there were any damages so is insurance or a ridiculously large deposit necessary? The family time was great and overall it was a really good experience!

So so

One toilet didn’t work, no railing at entrance, ceiling fan in kitchen was filthy, several chairs in the kitchen were broken. Our car drug when we pulled out of gravel parking area. We had 2 on canes and with no railing it was very hard entering and leaving.

Nice Place

We enjoyed our stay and were pleased with the house overall. It was very clean and communication was top notch and timely. Our only issue was the cleanliness of the pool. The pool required us to thoroughly skim it (well over an hour) and we were unable to completely remove the large amount of decayed and decaying leaves. When questioning whether the pump was operational we were told that it was on a timer to run over night. While we believe that this was the case the cycle may need to run for a much longer time due to its location under a walnut tree. Overall we had a great stay.

Perfect Staycation

After months of staying home we needed a change of scenery without breaking the bank or a long drive. This home was the perfect oasis for our family to celebrate a birthday weekend with close friends. The house was very clean and had plenty of space for the kids and adults to spread out and enjoy. All of the beds and bedding was comfortable and felt very clean. The dads and the kids ventured out one morning down the creek bed all the way down to Lake Harrington and came back with drenched shoes and huge smiles! The property owners were extremely hospitible and we felt like we were staying at a friend's home rather than a rental. We would love to come back sometime, and hear there may be a swimming pool coming next year!! Our only suggestion would be to increase comfortable seating both inside (Dining area and basement) as well as outside around the fire pit, so bring your own chairs for your outdoor relaxing. Thank you for a memorable weekend!
