There are not enough great things to say about this place and our stay! We were welcomed with a cake that was DIVINE!! The accommodations were immaculate and very homey. I could uproot that house and live in it! It was just the two of us but would be great spot for families or couples. Plenty of rooms/ bathrooms as well as spaces to relax and hang out. The location is great- close to restaurants and shopping. Margaret was an OUTSTANDING host!!! Very responsive and SO helpful. Everything was PERFECT!!!

Comfort, convenience and cleanliness in Bowling Green

Stayed in Bowling Green (a mom and 2 teenage boys) for a tennis tournament at Buchanon Park. The home was very clean and welcoming upon arrival. Margaret pays attention to every detail.

Fantastic house convenient location

This house is everything the online listing shows and then some. The host even provided homemade sourdough bread and homemade candy and had it waiting for us on the kitchen counter when we arrived. It was the best bread we have ever eaten! Location is perfect- only a short 13 min drive to the Corvette museum and convenient to a variety of restaurants and movie theater. Easy to rate this one five stars!

"My Kentucky Home"

This was by far one of our favorite VRBO experiences! Margaret is the most thoughtful and warm hostess! She made us feel welcome even before we arrived and upon arrival, we were met with so many personal touches. She was also easy to contact with any questions. There are wonderful amenities, the house & all items are perfectly clean, generous availability of linens, toiletries, dishes, games, books etc. The decor provides interesting & beautiful variety of local color that was fun to enjoy. The house has such charm & character, including outdoor seating and so much room throughout the house. We hope to be able to stay there again - it truly felt like we were being personally welcomed & cared for in a beautiful home!

Best VRBO ever!!

Went to visit my son at WKU for a long weekend and found this gem! Upon arrival you could feel how welcoming it is. A beautiful setup and beyond welcoming. When we arrived we were both thinking WOW, she has thought of everything. Setup is beautiful, there were only 3 -5 of us for the week but had everything. I enjoy cooking so we took advantage and I made pasta with the pasta maker. The welcome card was great to receive. Margaret's attention to detail is topnotch. Two TV's in the living areas were great to keep everyone together. This is our go to when visiting our son at Western Kentucky University. Margaret, thank you for the wonderful time!!

Exceptional is an understatement!

Exceptional hospitality and thoughtful amenities is an understatement. This listing promises a lot and over-delivers! We went to Bowling Green for a wedding and long weekend, never dreaming that before checking out, we would book a 10-day vacation later this year. Not for any event or special reason. Simply to come back and stay here! Not everyone bases their whole vacation on what the rental is like. But we do. Sure, we want comfortable beds which they all are. A kitchen with all the right equipment which it definitely is. Our enjoyment comes from relaxing, cooking and just "being" there. That's not to say there's any shortage of convenient shopping and places to eat...all within a very short distance. There's more than plenty of that. My Kentucky Home is a home we were sad to leave. There's no need to elaborate on what Margaret has written about her place. Printed words and pictures, although 100% spot on, can't fully capture the experience of walking through the door into this pristine home. Another point that makes this place a cut above is her generosity in allowing us flexibility in checkin and checkout time. We cannot wait to go back!

About the host

Hosted by Margaret

Host profile image
When I was a full-time pharmacist, this house was The Resurrection Shop - my part-time happy place, where we made old furniture new again, hosted art classes and best of all, met so many wonderful people.

When covid restrictions forced us to close the business, followed by tornado damage in December of '21, we chose to completely renovate the property for people visiting Bowling Green, so we can once again welcome new friends to our home town.
