This was our 2nd year in a row renting this place. We love that its in the country, but yet still close to conveniences. Jonathan is a great host. He is friendly, and the place is very clean and comfortable. We are planning to stay at Nonna's Place again next year. We love it!

Five star place to stay

Totally enjoyed our stay in the Bowling Green area. Nonna's Place is very well kept and easy to feel right at home. Out in the country which made evenings very quite when enjoying the evenings outside but easy access to local attractions.

Comfortable and centrally located

My family stayed in Nonna’s place, which included our 4, 7, & 9 year old sons. Everything was very clean. The kitchen had every dish, spoon, bowl, etc. we could ask for. There were plenty of towels and washcloths available as well. The house is centrally located. There were also several board games for the whole family. It is a short drive to Mammoth Cave National Park (where we spent most of our time) and Bowling Green.
