The Space:
ABOUT THIS SPACE
This farmhouse-style retreat in Lexington's historic Kenwick neighborhood was built
for the reunion where everybody actually shows up, the girls' trip that needs its own
hot tub, and the work retreat that turns into a real vacation by night two.
Five bedrooms sleep 12 across four king beds and two queens, spread over three
floors for real privacy. The first-floor master is its own quiet sanctuary — king bed,
ensuite bath with a walk-in shower and soaking tub, spacious closet. Upstairs, three
more king bedrooms include a private ensuite and a Jack & Jill setup, plus an open
loft with two queen beds that's a hit with kids and late arrivals. Every bedroom has a
Smart TV.
The heart of the house is a professionally styled kitchen with stainless-steel
appliances, a gas range, and an island with bar stools built for the person who ends
up cooking while everyone else talks. A dining table seats eight, with island seating for
overflow. Two living areas — one anchored by a gas fireplace, the other a cozier sitting
room — mean the group can split into a movie half and a card-game half without
anyone feeling exiled.
Downstairs, the garage has been converted into a full game room: foosball, ping pong,
a wall-mounted arcade basketball unit, a dartboard, and a ceiling projector for game
days or movie nights. It's the room that empties the living room by 9pm.
Outside, a covered patio holds the private hot tub — available all year, open 24 hours
— plus a fire pit for late conversations and a fenced backyard where kids and pets can
run free.
Bathrooms are stocked with body wash, shampoo, and conditioner, laundry has a full
washer and dryer, and fast WiFi covers the whole house.

WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR
- **Multi-generational family reunions.** Five sleeping zones and two living rooms
mean grandparents get quiet, teenagers get the loft, nobody's on an air mattress.
- **Bachelor and bachelorette groups.** The hot tub, fire pit, and game room turn a
weekend into an event, and the Distillery District is 8 minutes away.
- **UK football and basketball weekends.** Eight minutes from campus and Rupp
Arena, with room for the whole tailgate crew.
- **Corporate retreats and offsites.** Fast WiFi, a table for eight, and enough separate
spaces that work and downtime don't collide.
- **Wedding parties and guest overflow.** Close enough to downtown venues that the
group stays together instead of scattering across hotel rooms.

Guest Access:
Guests will receive a 4-digit code to access the smart lock on the front door for a seamless and secure check-in experience.
The Neighborhood:
The Kenwick neighborhood is a great place to call home with its central location and close proximity to some of Lexington's best attractions. Not only does this area feature an amazing local coffee shop just down the street, but you can also walk there from your house if need be! So next time we recommend grabbing breakfast or lunch at Kenwick Table before exploring what makes our city so intriguing - all while being steps away from where it starts happening.
Getting Around:
We're lucky to live in a city where driving is an easy option for getting around. The parking isn't usually too much of problem, and you can hail either Uber or Lyft right from your driveway!
Other Things to Note:
After confirming your reservation, you’ll receive access to our Guest Portal, which must be completed before check-in. It includes your check-in instructions, house rules, and required guest information.
