About this property
Firepit | Outdoor Deck | Sleeps 10
Summary:
Gather your people in the Gardenside neighborhood, just minutes from downtown
Lexington. Sink into evenings on the spacious back deck, swap stories around the fire
pit, and challenge cousins to a ping-pong rematch at the basement bar. Four real
bedrooms, room for up to 12 guests, and enough space for a whole multi-gen family
reunion — or a whole wedding-weekend crew — to actually gather under one roof,
together, in the heart of the Bluegrass.
WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR
This home works hardest for groups who want space to spread out and a real place to gather at night:
Multi-gen family reunions — separate bedrooms for every generation, plus a
basement built for the grandkids to burn off energy.
Wedding-weekend groups — past guests have booked around Lexington weddings,
with everyone under one roof and no more than a 10-minute drive to the venue.
Kentucky Horse Park visitors — horse-show families have stayed here specifically for
the short drive to competitions and stalls.
Girls'- and guys'-weekend crews — the basement bar and fire pit are made for a lowkey night in after a day out.
Pet-owning families — a fenced, pet-friendly backyard means the dog comes along
instead of staying home.
The Space:
This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is built for groups who want their own rooms and
their own gathering spaces — not a cramped rental everyone trips over.
MAIN FLOOR: A king bedroom sits just off the hallway, easy walking distance to the
main-floor full bath — great for grandparents or a couple who'd rather skip the stairs.
Down the hall, a queen bedroom shares that same bath. The open-concept kitchen
anchors this level, with a stainless appliance suite, an island with seating for two, and
a dining table for four just steps away — plenty of room for coffee in the morning or a
full sit-down dinner after a day at Keeneland.
UPSTAIRS: Climb up to a second king bedroom, bright with natural light, sharing an
upstairs full bath with the twin bedroom next door — ideal for kids, cousins, or friends
who don't mind bunking close. Four true bedrooms means no one's on an air mattress
in the living room.
DOWNSTAIRS — THE HEART OF THE HOUSE: This is where groups actually gather.
The finished basement has a half bath, a full bar counter, and a regulation ping-pong
table, plus a pull-out couch for extra sleeping space when the group runs long. It's the
natural landing spot after a wedding, a horse show, or a long day of exploring — cold
drinks, a game going, and enough seating that nobody's left standing.
OUTSIDE: The back deck is furnished for lounging and al fresco meals, and the fire pit
in the yard is where the night usually ends — s'mores, stories, and quiet conversation
once the kids are worn out. The backyard is pet-friendly, with room to toss a ball or let
the dog stretch its legs. Whether it's twelve people or four, this home gives every guest a place to land.
Guest Access:
Check-in is fully self-guided with a smart lock — no keys, no meeting anyone, no
waiting around. You'll get your unique door code before arrival, so you can walk in the
moment you're ready. Before check-in, you'll complete our Guest Portal with your
check-in instructions, house rules, and any final details we need from you, so
everything is settled before you ever pull into the driveway
The Neighborhood:
Tucked in Gardenside on Lexington's west side, this home puts you close to
everything without the noise of downtown at your doorstep.
Keeneland Race Course — about 3 miles, roughly a 10-minute drive — for race days or
a quiet morning walk on the track apron. Kroger Field and the University of Kentucky
campus are about 2 miles away, an easy trip for a Wildcats gameday or a stroll
through campus. Downtown Lexington's restaurants, bars, and Rupp Arena are
roughly 3 miles / 10 minutes out. Kentucky Horse Park, home to major equestrian
events and shows, is about 11 miles / 20 minutes northeast — several past guests
have stayed here specifically for horse-show weekends.
For food close to home, J. Render's Southern Table & Bar in nearby Beaumont Centre
is a local favorite for Southern comfort food, and the Versailles Road corridor has
grocery stores, pharmacies, and quick-service spots for anything you forgot to pack.
Guests consistently note how convenient the location is for weddings, reunions, and
errands alike.
Other Things to Note:
After confirming your reservation, you’ll receive access to our Guest Portal, which must be completed before check-in. It includes your check-in instructions, house rules, and required guest information.
You will also be asked to review and sign our external rental agreement. During this process, you’ll have the option to purchase a nightly damage protection plan (damage waiver) for coverage against accidental damages during your 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.

We enjoyed our VRBO stay. It was so close to the Mill Ridge horse farm we toured as well as Keeneland racetrack and many eateries and interesting places such as the Children’s museum!
Only thing we didn't find that we needed was a can opener. Everything else was there and in good condition.
