My wife and i along with our dog enjoyed our stay at this rural Tack house while we visited family in the area. Having a fenced in area was a bonus for our little dog. Our tack house was clean and comfortable and we look forward to a stay in the future!
Our host was great! She was very responsive and accommodating. The place was clean, cozy, and quiet. It was close enough to Louisville and yet remote. It had all the comforts of home and then some! We can’t wait to go back!
Host was responsive to all messages. The small home we stayed in was so cozy and clean. Directions on how to get there were clear and easy to follow. 10/10 would recommend.
Everything was provided in abundance! The rooms were comfortable, the kitchen was the best equipped of any place we've ever stayed. The privacy was just what we wanted.
The Tack Hjouse is a charming, rustic, rural (which was so peaceful) one bedroom with a fenced in yard which was perfect for our 2 dogs. It truely is part of a lovely old horse barn.The easy access with no steps and efficient floor plan was perfect for older knees. Our 4 grandsons came out and spent several days and it worked perfectly for them. They hiked, played in the creek (even though it was winter) and gazed at the stars. The large dining table for 6 was just what we needed for playing games and meals. The kitchen had all we needed for serving meals and snacks. The owners were quick to respond to our inquiries or needs. We hope to be back for another visit, as it was just what we needed.
My husband and I enjoyed our little getaway. The property was beautiful. Having a fenced yard for our dogs was so nice. The house is fully furnished and very comfortable.
We were only there for a few days. It was accommodating to us and my dog. It was very quiet and relaxing while we connected with some ailing family members in LaGrange.
The comms with the owners were great!
The place was super clean inside! Bed comfy! Washer/dryer worked beautifully! Easy check in/out! All appliances(stove, oven, toaster, fridge)worked great! There was a bit of an ac issue but the owners kept us up to date of the issue & they had a temp ac unit inalong with a super powered fan which worked bc it was a cool week minus one day. Loved the country area! We throughly enjoyed our stay!

Peaceful but not what we had in mind
Alicia was great to work with and very accommodating. The place was very nice, clean, and unique. It’s not every day you can stay in a barn with horses. We brought our dog, which was great. We thought she’d have more room to run being a farm, but the fenced area isn’t very big. The horses were great, even though our dog was terrified by them!
To be honest, we booked this trip last minute because it has been so hot and muggy and we wanted to get out of town and hang out at a pool all day. The description says “private pool” but you actually share the pool with other guests staying on the property. There was a big group with kids there when we were. It didn’t matter much though, because the pool balance was out of whack (green and murky). Owners were very nice and said it was due to a recent storm, but we ended up just sitting inside in the A/C most of the weekend with occasional walks.
Best stay for us and our dogs! The yard is awesome for pets. Very cozy and has everything you need. Air in the bedroom was a little finicky at times, but overall could not have been happier.
The tack house was so relaxing after a long trip. It is SO quiet except for the wonderful sound of birds singing and a gentle breeze through the trees. Closing the windows would silence that sound too if you wanted but why would you want to do that? You can sit out on the back side and see the sun set on the trees or watch the birds in the field. The bed was very comfortable, so comfortable that we accidentally slept in a few days when we were there. It had everything we needed for cooking and living for a few days. The host was so nice and accommodating. If we ever stay in the area again we will always stay here, it was that nice and relaxing.
When we planned our trip to the Louisville area, my wife and daughters were fascinated with the idea of staying in a tack house. I liked the setting, a bit away from the metro area yet close enough for a short ride wherever we wanted ti go. Plus, this is a beautifully secluded property in a valley surrounded by high ridges. The fenced area for our dog was perfect and we explored a bit of the creek. Inside was everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Would highly recommend.
We were looking for a place to get away and just relax and spend some quality time together. This place fit the bill perfectly! The place was just as described. Such a charming place in the country. It was so cute and cozy. We wanted to be able to bring our dogs so the fenced in yard was perfect! So perfect that the pups felt like they were on vacation too! They spent so much time just standing at the storm door looking out over the pasture and back yard! The kitchen had everything we could possibly need, no issues with the smart tv and we watched a lot of netflix. The bed was super comfortable and we slept so well. The room was so dark for sleep/loved it. It was nice to have a full size washer/drier even though we did not need to use it. We spent a lot of time outside on the patio under the pergola enjoying the peace and quiet. Hummingbird feeders added such a nice touch to see them come so close. Such a beautiful location with lots of trees and horse pastures all around. Just be advised that this place is out in the country. Maybe a few miles from the interstate but there is no Walmart or restaurants near by. It is about 30 minutes from Louisville or Madison where you can go but the only thing near by is a McDonalds at a truck stop. We knew this/were fine with it and brought our own food for our stay but if you are expecting to drive down the road to Boston Market-that will be a no go. We wanted to be in the country away from everything so we loved it! The grill was easy to use/very clean. Everything we needed for a bonfire-they had the firepit loaded with wood already and even provided a little kit with the fixins for smores. Perfect! I did mention to the hubs that this is one of the cleanest places we have every stayed...not.one.stinkin.cobweb.found! We were thrilled with the place and our low key, peaceful weekend. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a fabulous mini vacation!
