About this property

Bluegrass & Bourbon - a Peaceful Retreat & Hangout

Retreat to your peaceful hangout after a day of exploring all that Bardstown and Kentucky has to offer! Relax by the fireplace and stream a movie on the 75" TV, cook a full meal in the well-stocked kitchen, create a unique cocktail with all the tools you could wish for, breathe fresh air on the screened-in porch that borders greenspace, challenge friends to poker in the game room, grill dinner on our charcoal grill, or roast hot dogs and marshmallows on the firepit area. This must be the place.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

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.
