Lovely VRBO in a lovely little town

The property was right on the main drag of the quaint town of Paris. It was charming, quiet, and a short beautiful drive away from Lexington. I highly recommend staying here if you're in the area.

Perfect location

This was the perfect location for visiting our family. The unit was clean and the beds were comfortable. A small dinette set would have been handy, but we were able to manage. We would stay at this property again! Thank you for your hospitality!

Excellent and Relaxing

The place was perfect for a quick getaway, allowing to relax and spend time in a small town area with quality local businesses. I gave the check-in process only 4-stars only because there is no signage or markers to determine the entrance. The lights were not on and the heating and air unit was completely off, which made a chilly couple of hours waiting for it to warm.

Great loft apartment in charming downtown Paris, KY

My husband and I stayed in this lovely apartment for 13 weeks while working in Lexington and enjoyed every minute! It was a great place to unwind and relax, located between several other great cities with lots to offer as well! The house itself was well equipped for any cooking items we needed. Also, Nathan was quick to respond with anything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!

Charming and convenient!

This was our first trip to Kentucky and we could not have been happier with our whole experience. This suite in Paris was perfectly located for all of our touristy stops and was exquisitely decorated while still feeling homey and comfortable! It was a beautiful short drive to the Horse Park every day and had several great dining options close by. Nathan was extremely courteous and helpful with our stay and we can't wait to come back!
