About the host

Hosted by Mary Gonda-Chandler

Host profile image
My husband and I bought the land for Chandler Ridge in 2003, we began building that fall and by Spring 2005 the lodge was open for guests. We love to travel and have been very blessed to see some of the world so far. I have always wanted a log cabin of my own, but never dreamed of building a retreat facility. I have been in the hospitality business in some form since I was 18 so hosting guests from all over the world was not a big step for me. My husband is a great do it all kinda guy and we have built several things together. By far, the cabin is our favorite and we hope you enjoy it too.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful 20 acres is wonderfully located to experience all Kentucky has to offer. Halfway between Louisville and Lexington and just south of Cincinnati, we are in the ideal spot for seeing all aspectsof the Bluegrass State.

What makes this property unique

The cabin is wonderfully located for guests visiting the Bourbon Trail, The Ark and many more inviting Kentucky area activities. As well as families gathering from the North to the South, it is a great central location. https://www.travelzoo.com/custom/find-what-moves-you-in-kentucky/?gad_source=7
