This must be the place.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful the Bluegrass and Bourbon house was. It was very clean with all the necessities and tons of extras. The house had everything you’d need and then some. We loved all the extra touches that were included. They truly thought of everything. Extra toothbrushes were even available if needed. The beds were comfortable. We all agreed that we slept better here than other places when traveling. The outdoor fire pit was so cozy and enjoyable. I highly recommend staying here if traveling to the bourbon trail.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa

Host profile image
We live in Florida, but Melissa was born and grew up in Kentucky. We still have family here and we love to stay in Bardstown! Distillery tours are a hobby for us, but we also love to immerse ourselves in the peaceful country while we are here. In particular, we like to visit some of the local restaurants and shops. The people here are just so nice!

Why they chose this property

Bardstown is such a cute little town with a good amount of history. It gives us that small town feel getaway that we all crave.

What makes this property unique

Away from the busy downtown area, but close enough to feel like you're in the middle of it all. We offer a peaceful place to truly chill and hang out with your friends/loved ones.
