About this property

Garage Perfect for Beech Bend & Corvette Guests! Horsepower Theme! 3 miles - I65

Send me a message and I’ll reply with our digital guidebook that includes more details about the home, property, attractions in and around Bowling Green, and fun facts about Kentucky! At Horsepower Hangout of Kentucky, you will have loads of fun and experience southern hospitality at it's finest, in a relaxing, peaceful, spacious, safe, family-friendly location. The home sits on 1.3 acres with 30 mature trees. It's a great place to sit by the fire pit, relax in a hammock, and unwind on the front-porch swings. Close to local attractions like The National Corvette Museum (12 miles away), Mammoth Cave National Park (38 miles away), and Beech Bend Raceway (17 miles away)! The two-car garage is a safe-haven for your hot rods and motorcycles. Enjoy a full kitchen and a recreation room for hours of entertainment! Great for traveling families, couples, and groups.

Our mission and vision at “Horsepower Hangout of Kentucky” include “enjoying life” by eating, drinking, gathering with family/friends, and working with excellence. Life is short, so our mission is to enjoy our blessings every day and our vision is to share them with others (and that includes you)!

Throughout the home and property, you will experience a horse theme upstairs and a Corvette/Hot Rod theme downstairs. We chose our name and logo by combining our state’s equine industry (horseshoe) with the modern-day use of the term “horsepower” used by car and motorcycle enthusiasts (checkered flags).

*FYI, depending on the size of guests who stay, and their preferred sleeping arrangements, if the maximum number of occupants (8) are residing in the home, one or two guests may need to sleep on either the living room couch or a queen-size air mattress. Currently, we have 3 private bedrooms with:
1 Full-sized bed
1 Queen-sized bed
1 King-sized bed
…and one living room with:
Couch
1 Queen-sized air mattress

Wonderful stay in a great location!

Absolutely loved our week-long stay. The house is so comfortable and has everything you could possibly need (I can’t believe you provided shower caps - absolute lifesaver!!) Crista is a brilliant host - excellent communication and you can tell how much love, care, and attention she has put into this home. The location is perfect - just a short drive from Mammoth Cave and Nashville, and all the amenities to enjoy a relaxing evening. We absolutely loved the fire-pit, and the kids loved all the board games and karaoke - this place has everything you need, and then some. Thank you for a wonderful spring break - we’d happily recommend this place to family and friends, and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. 5 stars, across the board!!

Best VRBO Experience To Date

We had a such a wonderful experience at Horsepower Hangout. The home was exactly as described and better than we expected. It was beautifully decorated - Chip and Joanna would be proud! One of the things that we liked best was that all drawers in the kitchen and throughout the house were labeled so you knew exactly where things were located. There were little touches throughout, including waters in the fridge, noise makers in all the rooms (not needed since it is a secluded location) and high-quality TP and shampoos in the bathrooms. Communication was Crista was excellent. She quickly responded to our questions, accommodated an early check-in and was flexible to allow for more than one dog. When we realized that a few kitchen items we needed to prepare for Christmas dinner weren't included, she came by to drop off those specific items and a bouquet of flowers within 15 minutes. Wow! We would highly recommend this property and we look forward to staying again the next time we're visiting BG to see family.

Such a lovely home

We absolutely loved our stay at this property. The home is just perfect, and Crista is the most amazing host. No detail was missed throughout the home—in fact, she thought of things you might need even before you knew you needed them! Plenty of space, the beds were super comfortable (so comfortable I had to find out what sheets were on our bed so I could buy them for myself!). The outdoor space is also fantastic—the large front porch with swings, pillows, and blankets, and the awesome fire pit with surrounding adirondack chairs made for a lovely Saturday afternoon with cocktails. The Fall colors at their best too. It felt like we were a million miles away from it all, even though we were so close to Bowling Green. I highly recommend this property!

Amazing stay in beautiful scenery

Our hosts were amazing and super responsive. We booked an extra couple of weeks because we loved it so much! The house everything you could ask for for hosting dinner and just relaxing and reading on the porch or in the sunroom. We sat around the firepit a couple of nights and it was just perfect.
