Thank you so much! We're thrilled that The Paddock was perfect for your group of 10. It was wonderful hosting you and we'd love to welcome you back anytime for another fun stay!
The house was great for our trip with a group of 5 people, each room had a large bed and plenty of space. The house was clean and provided a good layout for hanging out. Great location, within walking distance to all the restaurants/bars on Bardstown Rd, and a quick ride to the airport or downtown.

Thanks so much, Randy! We’re really glad you enjoyed The Paddock and that everything felt spacious and clean. It’s great to hear you liked the walkable area and all the nearby restaurants and things to do. We hope you’ll come back and stay with us again.
We stayed here for a bachelor party of 10 guys. It was a great set up for us with a nice outdoor area to relax in. The house was clean and beds were comfortable. Location was convenient to get to downtown and Churchill downs. And bars and restaurants were in walkable distance.Floors of the house could use a refinish as there were areas of splintering wood but overall a great stay.

Thanks so much for the 5 star review, Kyle. I’m really glad you enjoyed The Paddock and that the hot tub, fire pit, and mini golf were a hit. Thanks for noting the weekend street noise too, and I’m happy it didn’t bother you. I’d love to host you again anytime.
Great property for a group! The backyard was as good as the pictures and provided plenty of evening activities. Location was great - walking distance to restaurants and bars. The host was great at communicating updates on the property and check in was a breeze. The only thing to be aware of is it can a get a bit loud in this area on Friday and Saturday nights since it’s so close to bars and restaurants.

I’m glad the backyard lived up to the photos and gave your group plenty of evening fun, and that the walkable location to restaurants and bars worked well for you.
Thanks for the heads up about Friday and Saturday nights being a bit louder - that’s helpful context for future guests.
We’d love to host you again.
