The Space
The Rickhouse Retreat | A Luxury Bourbon Country Escape by Destino Getaways
Where Kentuckyâs bourbon legacy meets refined design and modern wellness. Spread across three levels plus a private annex, this 5-bedroom, 4-bath retreat accommodates up to 10 guests, blending elegant design with the warmth and authenticity of small-town Kentucky.
⌠The Experience
From the moment you arrive, The Rickhouse Retreat invites you to slow down and savor. Whether youâre celebrating a milestone, reconnecting with friends, or leading a retreat, every corner of the home was designed with intention â sophisticated enough for entertaining, yet relaxed enough for real connection.
The main levelâs open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area is the heart of the home â perfect for bourbon-paired dinners or slow mornings with coffee. Warm wood, brass, and leather accents echo the tones of aging oak, while large windows fill the space with light and countryside calm.
⌠The Wellness Retreat
Found nowhere else on the Bourbon Trail â your private wellness sanctuary awaits on the lower level. Two full-body massage chairs deliver a deep, restorative experience, surrounded by the soft glow of Himalayan salt wall panels. Step into the infrared sauna to melt away tension, then finish with a warm towel from the custom towel bar.
Itâs an immersive, sensory escape designed to restore balance between tastings, meetings, and lifeâs celebrations.
⌠Rick Row Lounge
Adjacent to the wellness retreat, Rick Row 7 sets the mood for conversation and connection. Rich textures, dimmable lighting, and bourbon-inspired tones create a modern speakeasy vibe â the perfect place to pour a flight, play cards, or share a story.
⌠The Annex â Golf, Cinema & Strategy Suite
Just steps from the main house, The Annex adapts effortlessly to your stay. Challenge friends on the golf simulator (golf clubs provided), host a movie night on the projection screen, or gather your team for a private strategy session. The Annex also includes a popcorn machine and flexible seating for entertainment or executive use.
⌠Outdoor Living â Kentucky Evenings Redefined
Step outside and experience Kentuckyâs beauty at its most inviting. Dine alfresco on the wood deckâs outdoor dining area, unwind in the private year-round hot tub, or settle into the outdoor cigar lounge as the firepit crackles under a starlit sky. Whether itâs a quiet morning coffee or an evening toast, every moment outdoors feels unforgettable.
⌠Bedrooms & Baths
Five beautifully styled bedrooms â three king suites and two queen bedrooms â offer both comfort and personality across three levels. Each includes plush linens, curated art, and smart TVs, and several feature dedicated workspaces for guests balancing relaxation with productivity.
Four full bathrooms ensure convenience for groups and families alike, combining functionality with understated elegance.
⌠Every Detail, Designed for Connection
Across the home, coffee and tea stations on each level (except The Annex) make every morning effortless. Youâll also find bourbon-inspired dĂŠcor, barware, and thoughtful amenities that honor Kentuckyâs craftsmanship while celebrating modern luxury. At The Rickhouse Retreat, every element â from the wellness suite to the golf lounge â was created to bring people together in comfort, conversation, and style.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Rosa
Hi, Iâm Rosa. I came to Kentucky looking for more than an addressâI wanted a place where people could finally stop scrolling and start gathering. After years in the fast lane, Iâm in a new chapter thatâs equal parts design, hospitality, and joy. I love solving the travel puzzle guests wrestle with on the Bourbon Trail: too many options, not enough clarity, and a group with different priorities. My promise is simpleâclear communication, thoughtful guidance, and spaces (and moments) that make decisions easy and memories effortless.
Iâm detail-oriented in the calmest way. I map flow before furniture, lighting before dĂŠcor, and people before everything. I host multigenerational families celebrating milestones, friend groups chasing bucket-list distilleries, and Bourbon executives who need a polished, low-friction stay. Iâm quick to respond, direct when it helps, and hands-off when youâre in a rhythm. If you want itinerary ideas, Iâll distill choicesâdrive times, tour types, dinner reservations, driver optionsâinto a plan that respects your pace. If youâd rather wander, Iâll give you a slim short list and stay out of the way.
I care about comfort that doesnât scream for attention: good light, clear instructions, small luxuries where they matter most, and privacy always. I believe âhostedâ should feel like being expected, not managed. My favorite review is the one that says, âWe could relaxâwe didnât have to think.â Thatâs the bar I set for your stay.
If youâre here to celebrate big, to slow down, or to make smart decisions about great whiskey, welcome. Iâm honored youâre considering spending your timeâand your storiesâhere.
