Our extended family (4 couples) stayed here for a weekend getaway and it was very nice! Each couple got their own room! All the rooms and main areas were clean and very comfortable. We actually thought the house was nicer than the pictures led on.
Loved our stay. Gorgeous home and owners were very communicative and helpful. Location is great for distillery tours and river activities. Highly recommend if looking for a great spot in this area!
The house was great and well stocked. The outside games were a lot of fun. Host was super responsive and addressed a broken grill immediately so we could grill the next day. That was really great. A good home base for exploring caves, rivers, and bourbon.
Enjoyed our first long weekend down in Bourbon County. Conveniently located to a number of breweries. House was fully stocked from the kitchen to the laundry and bathrooms! The kids loved the swing and the space was great for our group!

Katie,
We are thrilled you enjoyed the house. Our goal is always to provide a 5 star experience for our guests. We would love feedback on how we could have made it to that 5 star review.
Our group stayed at the farmhouse during the week of the Kentucky Derby and it was the most ideal spot! It was right in the middle of everything we needed making travel easy. The home was very clean and decorated beautifully! Matt and Carrie were amazing hosts and always very responsive if we needed anything. Everything went incredibly smooth, and our group had an amazing time. If you are looking for a place to stay during Derby week or taking a trip to the Bourbon Trail, this is it! We will surely be back to stay in the future.
This house did not disappoint. 8 guys had enough space to spread out and enjoy the property. The property is organized, well maintained, clean and full of essentials-soap, bath / shower towels, paper towels, spices, and coffee filters etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Thanks for having us!
This property was quiet, great location, beautiful setting, and just right for our group. The layout of this house was very good and kitchen was user friendly. Everyone said the beds were very comfy. I’m always picky about cleanliness and this very cute house was one of the cleanest properties we ever stayed in. We all agreed with that and just how wonderful it was decorated. We would for sure rent it again if ever in the area. I couldn’t figure out the lock one day and they got us in immediately. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay on our family getaway. Almost forgot the front porch was perfect to sit relax and visit. Very shady and breezy plus outside ceiling fans and porch swings. They thought of everything.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Everything inside the house was very new and it was very clean. The master bed was comfy and the master bath is awesome.
The property is in a great location right between Shelbyville & Frankfort making it easy to visit places. Lots of room for our dog to run outside and have fun. We enjoyed the party room as well.
I would say the only thing that could be updated is the outside grill-it was pretty rusted and dirty inside.
But overall a great stay and we would definitely stay again if in the area.
This is a beautiful location that blew my family and I away from the initial curb appeal, to the interior design and layout, to the plethora of games and thoughtful inclusions that made our stay feel extra special. The hot tub is fantastic, as is the game room, and all the bedroom and upgraded appliances and fixtures. This is also just down the road from the Bulliet distillery, which is a must-go stop while staying here. Communication with the property manager was excellent. I am definitely impressed with this location and will be looking for other properties owned by this property manager.
We had a family trip for Thanksgiving in the area and the Hays home was the perfect spot for my group. The house is spacious, well appointed and has TONS of items to keep a group interested during down times during a stay. Our kids loved the basketball court and tree swings.
While we stayed for a holiday vacation to visit family - it's easy to see this as the perfect gathering place for any bourbon trail group trip. It's within striking distance of every great distillery and as mentioned has all the appointments you'd want to relax after a day of touring.
We'll come back - killer spot and loved everything about it. Thanks for hosting us.

We visited the bourbon trail for the first time in Nov. 2023 for my birthday. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bourbon Bootlegger. It was a central location to many great distilleries. (Note its only 7 minutes to Bulliet, and about 25 minutes to Buffalo Trace). The house itself was clean, updated, and very nicely furnished. We spent time enjoying the game room and had a very nice meal as a group of 7 in the dining room. The hosts were great, they were quick to respond and helpful. They even delivered extra firewood when we ran low. I would definitely stay here again on our next trip to bourbon country.
Everything about our visit was just as we hoped and went smoothly. We spent many a morning out on the porch with coffee and quiet, and many an evening in the hot tub enjoying one another after a long day of bourboning, driving idyllic horse-inspired landscapes, and touring horse farms and racetracks. The Bourbon Bootlegger was exactly the space we needed as the homebase for our family adventure. There were 7 of us (4 adults, 3 teens) and more than enough space (and spaces) to spread out and accommodate all of us and our activities. Carrie and Matt were informative and prompt with any questions we had, offering great ideas for where to go and what to do...as responsive as we could have hoped our hosts to be. Thank you for sharing your space, Hays Family! There is no doubt, we'll be back.

1940s farmhouse that is fully renovated. It is located on 2 acres of flat yard, which is perfect for playing games or just enjoying the view. The front porch is our favorite part of the house. With rocking chairs and swings, it makes a great place to relax.
