Really enjoyable stay

Cute house with all the amenities you’ll need. Plenty of seating in living room, large kitchen, and outdoor deck is perfect for sunsets. Neighbors are nice and overall location is centralized for getting to bourbon distilleries and other regional highlights. Host was very responsive and offered suggestions for local dining (wish we had tried the local bakery!) Only drawback is that the main road traffic was noisy on the weekend.

Felt like Home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Only little, little little problem was the washer did not work properly. But that was so small we didn't really notice it. It was still a 5 STAR !

About the host

Hosted by Janie Stanley

Retired at 55 and loving it.

Mother, grandmother, and native of area. I have decided to rent out my humble abode for travelers in groups to enjoy while also enjoying the myraid attractions Bardstown has to offer.

Why they chose this property

This home is safe, cozy, and quiet for groups to enjoy in between distillery tours, shopping, or historical tours. This home is close to downtown, yet is private enough to feel in the country.
