Despite early check out, this place was super cool in downtown Paducah. Felt like an NY spacious loft in the heart of Paducah. Love the custom lights through the place!

This is a fantastic place in downtown Paducah. We were so happy when we walked in. Very clean. Well decorated. The host was so easy to communicate with. We walked to everything we wanted to see. And the bike trail two blocks away. Overall a wonderful weekend

We enjoyed staying at this condo. It had a cool vibe. It is also very close to bars and restaurants all within walking distance or literally next door. It was a very nice getaway.

Wonderful property in a great location for walking and exploring the city. The hosts were attentive and had everything we needed for our stay. Traveled with my wife and 2 younger kids. Would stay again next time I'm in the area. Note as they state in their listing you are pretty close to various bars and places to eat. We stayed on the weekend and there was street noise from the people if that bothers you but is the trade off for the great location and lovely property. The hosts do provide noise machines and ear buds to help with that.

The rental was beautiful and we really enjoyed it. They provided everything we needed.

The only issue we encountered was the noise from the street and the bar next door.

Downtown Paducah

We had a great stay at The Dim Light. It was in a great central location, with plenty of restaurants and attractions nearby. The accomodations were exactly as described. The kitchen was well stocked and even had a crockpot to use. We would definitely stay again! Thanks for a great stay!!

Weekday Getaway

Dim Light was exactly as described. There were so many fun details that made our stay unique (candy jars and outdoor projector just to name a few). The location was perfect with lots of walkable restaurants. We'd definitely stay again!

Wonderful! Best ever!

This place rocks! Decorated beautifully and very well equipped. Within walking distance to downtown restaurants and shopping. Easy walk to the riverfront and the National Quilt Museum. We will definitely recommend and this will always be our choice when staying in Paducah.

Attention to detail is paramount at this property. Finishes are functional and well thought. Nicest short term rental I have experienced.

Best location and digs in do Paducah

We could not have enjoyed our stay more. Everything was exactly asi it looked online. Stunning apartment and a short walk to everything downtown. Beautiful restaurants with horse drawn carriages roaming the picturesque riverfront streets outside.

Great vrbo.

High tech. Only drawback was the 23 steps up to the second floor. Security was great. Very clean, great beds, wonderful showers. Most of the lights could be controlled from an ipad, change colors, etc. It was fun! Thank you.

The Dimlight -Paducah

The place is awesome. I'm a novice on VRBA so I'll take some of the blame, but the communication after booking about check-in was limited. The app didn't even show I had an upcoming stay. Anyway, this place is awesome!

Stay at the Dim Light

Everything was great! We had a fantastic time. There were a few things that need to be fixed: main bedroom closet door knob kept falling off, and the back door lock was broken. This was not a problem at all. Just needs attention. Thank you!

Beautiful restored condo

Our condo was lovely, but could have used a little more comfortable living room furniture. Air conditioning struggled to keep condo cool, but it was extremely hot during our stay. I would like to stress for someone who might be older, there are twenty-seven steps counting the ones outside. Carrying luggage and extras up thoses steps were difficult. Especially when making several trips. Also, even though there was street side parking, we very seldom were able to park there. You could be walking a ways. Most important!! We can not complain about the bar noise next door. It really was not loud. But, the traffic noise was horrible!! Impossible to sleep in front bedroom even with fans running to help drown out noise. Desperately need drapes that are insulated to block the street noise. 😫 But, it is beautiful in the downtown arts district and we still loved our trip.

I can’t say enough good about this property. We were so impressed with the cleanliness and beautiful decor, but we were more impressed with our hosts. As senior citizens, we had some health and accessibility issues. They did not hesitate to help us in any way they could. I highly recommend this property and any other property operated by Kyle and Will.
