"Comfortable luxury." — Jean, Kentucky
🏡 BUILT FOR MULTIGENERATIONAL GROUPS
This is a private estate designed for groups that need to spread out and come together. Two distinct upstairs wings mean grandparents, parents, and kids each have their own private corner of the house. The main-level master suite means no stairs for elders. The 5,500 sq ft footprint means no one ever feels crowded.
From ages 5 to 85, every guest finds their thing here.
"Three families, each had their own 'wing.'" — Monte

🌅 A DAY AT GLENCAIRN KNOLL
Morning — Coffee on the front porch. Sunrise over rolling Kentucky hills. Grandparents at the kitchen island. Teens at the coffee bar. Little ones already planning pool time.
Afternoon — One push of a button and the automatic cover retracts to reveal the sparkling 38-foot saltwater pool. Cannonballs in the 8' deep end. Cornhole on the lawn. A wander out to the quiet 1800s cemetery tucked in the trees.
Evening — Grilling for the gang on the 38" 4-burner Blackstone. Outdoor dining for 12. One shared meal that lingers.
After Dinner—Karaoke echoes from the basement. Bourbon poured in the Speakeasy. Marshmallows roast at the firepit.
Night—pool lights glowing. Night swimming becomes the highlight nobody planned for. Flashlight tag across 3.75 acres.
Bedtime — Everyone retreats to their own spacious room and king bed. The main-level master features a deep soaking tub and walk-in rain shower guests describe as "like a spa."
Most groups plan to explore Kentucky. Most end up staying right here.
✨ WHAT MAKES GLENCAIRN KNOLL DIFFERENT
🔥Heated Saltwater Pool
Picture this...
A crisp Kentucky evening. Steam rising gently from the water. Your family laughing in the pool long after sunset.
Our 38-foot heated with 8' deepend saltwater pool turns an ordinary vacation into one of the moments everyone remembers.
"The pool was heated. We enjoyed it even with outside temps in the low 60's."— Tabitha, March 2026
🌸 Now open year round
Our Heated Pool Experience is available year-round by advance request, with seasonal temperature settings designed for the best swimming experience.
Guests may request their preferred water temperature, up to 90°F, before arrival, creating a true resort-style swimming experience.
Without pool heat, spring and fall water temperatures are generally too cool for comfortable swimming.

Yes...you can even enjoy the pool during a Kentucky winter.
Winter pool heating must be requested before arrival. During the winter months, we target a water temperature of approximately 84–85°F, although actual water temperature may vary with outdoor weather conditions.
Because heating a pool of this size requires advance planning, requests should be made as early as possible after booking.

Protecting little ones. Helping retain heat. Ready for the next swim.
♨️ Covered Hot Tub — Year-Round
Rain. Snow. Cool evenings. Summer nights.
The hot tub is always ready.
🎁 The Secretariat Mystery Adventure
Framed pieces of Kentucky history are hidden throughout the home.
Follow the clues. Find Secretariat's missing ring. Win a prize.
Kids solve the puzzles. Grandparents know the history. Teenagers become unexpectedly competitive.
It happens every stay.

About the host
Hosted by Deb Paul
Hi, we’re Deb and James Paul—hosts, storytellers, and passionate believers in the power of connection. After five years of hosting in Destin, Florida, we found our next chapter in Kentucky, where the hills are wide, the pace is slower, and family time stretches longer.
We created Glencairn Knoll as more than just a vacation rental—it’s a space designed for families to reconnect, slow down, and remember what really matters. Whether you’re gathering around the table, playing in the pool, or just breathing easier under a Kentucky sky, we hope this home becomes part of your story.
We’re honored to share it with you.
Why they chose this property
We picked this place because it gave us both—space to connect and space to breathe with plenty of room for everyone. It’s tucked just far enough from the city to feel peaceful but close enough for bourbon trail touring and brunch. The first night we saw the stars here, we knew it was the one.
What makes this property unique
Smart home technology, Karaoke room, salt-water pool, hot tub, fire pit and game room.
