Great Place

We are a swim team, and we had 13 teenage swimmers who loved this place. There was so much for them to do: air hockey, ping pong, games, and playing on the pickleball court. As the chaperone, I loved the space where they could spread out and not have to worry about being loud or disrupting others, which we would have had at a hotel. The place is huge and very nicely kept. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a lot of room and a lot of activities.Great stay.

Johnson Family fall trip

Beautiful, peaceful home in a rolling hills environment. Very clean and very comfortable for our 16 family members. Well stocked kitchen and 6 bathrooms made it easy to manage. I would say that we did miss not having a fire pit outside but the rest of the outside barbecue and seating made up for it

Great place- Plenty to do at the property

The place was great, plenty to do at the property and if you’re a golfer it is right on a course. Plenty of parking and space for people to enjoy. The property is not close to the bourbon trail but this is easily solved with some planning. I recommend if you’re booking for a group line up bus tour or a driver and you have the perfect place to stay.

Great Place to Stay

The Lodge was the perfect place for our family to celebrate Christmas. The place was decorated for the holidays which made it very festive. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable.There was plenty of room for everyone. The men could watch football all day in the theatre room. The kids had plenty of room to play with their toys in the basement. Plus the putting green and pinball games were a hit. There were plenty of tables and chairs for eating meals and playing games. Great house!

Fabulous house in a quiet, golf community.

We were excited to stay at The Lodge. The house was immaculate. Beds were comfortable. The downstairs has arcade games and an entire room to practice golf. We would stay up late having putting competitions. Ample room for everyone in our party. I would definitely come back to stay here. This area was very quiet, safe and enjoyable. Couldn't have asked for a nicer place to stay.

Great Time!

Very spacious lodge with plenty to do. We spent most of the time in the basement. Wish we would’ve been allowed to play on the golf course on-site. Great location in a beautiful neighborhood. Only about a 30min drive to Louisville and about 30mins from the start of the Bourbon Trail. I enjoyed my bachelor party there very much.

Christmas on the green

Our multigenerational family of 19 members from several states gathered at this amazing home to celebrate Christmas together. Beds enough for everyone and abundant space to gather (and separate as needed). Movie theater room got great use for online games. Kitchen was well stocked with all you might need. Laundry supplies available for use. We enjoyed a great lunch next door at the Persimmon Ridge Golf Club. Booking for the house was easy and communication was great between us and Brandon. We would highly recommend this home and would love to come back another time!!

Great space for a large family !

This place suited us perfectly for our 10 adults and 7 children. Plenty of space to spread out and a wonderful play area for the kids downstairs. The bar and pub seating in the front of the house made for a nice adult space. The living room, dining room and kitchen was comfortable for gathering during a football game and meals. We had additional adults over for an evening get together and the extra space served us well. Easy parking and nice hilltop setting. There was an extra full size fridge in the basement and a convenient small fridge behind the bar. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes and utensils. Brandon was responsive and accommodating. We had a great visit !

Cool house

House was very clean and plenty big enough for 6 couples . *A couple of little things… there were no towels - dish rags to use in kitchen. - it made it very hard to clean up without. *outside area could be a huge plus if it there was some comfortable furniture to hang out on * bar area was great! However it would have been better if it had. Ice maker - we ran out of ice in frig * would have loved screens on windows being the weather was so nice - Lower level was so fun! We enjoyed playing the arcade games and golf net! The movie room was a big hit as well! Overall - Great house! Highly recommend!
