⭐ 5 Star Reviews from our past guests:
"We had a great time in this house! Clean, cozy, everything is thought out to the smallest detail - from comfortable mattresses to a fully equipped kitchen. Special thanks to the owner: always in touch, gave a lot of useful advice on local entertainment and restaurants. We recommend it to anyone who wants to spend a carefree holiday!" - Mirbek
This home was exactly like the pictures showed. It was clean and was ready for us when we checked in. Seth was great and very responsive! The location is in a nice quiet area which was peaceful. It was super close to shops and grocery stores. We were there for a wedding so everything was no more than a 10 minute drive. Definitely would recommend this home for big groups and will be staying here again when coming to Lexington!" - Deina
"Great spacious house just minutes from downtown Lex. Back deck was great to relax by the fire pit, and basement was cool spot to relax as a group. Very accommodating host and would definitely stay here again!" - Brandon

Thank you, Ana, for your kind words! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the location and found everything to your liking. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another wonderful stay!
Do not hesitate to book!! This was a great property, conveniently located with lots of amenities and very clean! It is a very short drive to get on just about any of the major thoroughfares through Lexington. And if you are looking for a place to stay for a visit to Keeneland this place is perfect in terms of location! The downstairs basement area was ideal for hanging out the nights we stayed in and we loved having access to a grill and fire pit on the back deck. Lastly, communication with the host was perhaps the best we have experienced throughout our many stays at VRBO properties. Incredibly responsive and checked in numerous times to make sure our stay was going well!

We had a wonderful stay. The home was very clean and easy to find and get into. We had plenty of room for 7 adults. The home was on a very quiet street but close enough to everywhere we wanted to go. Seth had excellent instructions and was there if we needed anything.

Great house with plenty of space. 2 living rooms let us spread out and the deck was our favorite lounging area. Beds were very comfortable and showers had great water pressure. Great host communication and suggestions. Would definitely recommend.
