Location and privacy were fantastic. The outdoor spaces and views were amazing. The house didn't provide any paper towels or trash bags (we had to purchase ourselves), the coffee maker had mold in it, and the glasses and plastic cups were filthy. Overall, it was a great vacation for us and we would go back.

Hillview House

Outstanding in all aspects. Hillview House was perfect for our group with a beautiful, tranquil setting, and enough bedrooms to accommodate our group of 6 adults. A nicely furnished kitchen and well laid out common areas added to the wonderful experience.

Great house in the country side

Great house, very well maintained had a lot of kitchen prep and cooking utensils. Very clean outside was also amazing. The only small thing was that there was a dishwasher full of dirty dishes upon our arrival, guessing it was just an over site. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect!!!

Hillview House exceeded our expectations, by far. The home was spotless for us, and we all loved the decor. Everyone agreed they slept very comfortably, and loved the serenade of the frogs. How peaceful! The kitchen was amazing, and I was shocked that it had anything we could have possibly needed….although I overpacked just in case. It was so refreshing to actually feel like I got a little vacay!

Great Stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house was much bigger than we all were anticipating, with plenty of room for us to sit in the living room or around the dining table for 8 of us. Really nice house, beautiful setting, wish we had more time to spend out by the fire pit. Would definitely recommend.

Bourbon Trip

Rented house for my dad's 72 birthday Bourbon trip. The house and property were amazing. We had 10 people and this place was perfect. The house had everything and was very clean. It was also close to many distilleries which was the reason we were there. The owners were very quick to respond to my questions.I would highly recommend this this property.

Bourbon Trail Weekend

This home and property was the perfect place for our Bourbon Trail weekend. Situated on a lovely, secluded piece of property, this clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated place had plenty of room for our group of 8 adults. The large kitchen had everything we needed to prepare a few meals and we really enjoyed the outdoor bar area!

50th birthday

We stayed with 4 other couples for my husband's 50th birthday. The property was great. We loved the outside bar area! So many laughs were had out by the fire. Melynda and Andy were the best! They were easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to make the trip special! I would definitely recommend them and their property to anyone!

Friends on the Bourbon Trail

Our stay was great! The house had everything we needed and was well equipped. It was beautifully decorated! We had one minor problem, but the host was very responsive and resolved the problem quickly. I would highly recommend this house! We loved our visit to Limestone Distillery which was a short drive from the house.

Best Bourbon Trail House

The property is fantastic! 4 couples had an amazing time, awesome fire pit and outside bar, caught fish in the lakes, rooms were so comfortable, master suite was off the hook, and then an awesome bourbon trail day with the owners private bus service. We will be back!!!!

Could Not be better

This place is beautiful. The property, the ponds, the house, the outdoor bar, the outdoor seating areas (both firepit and dining) are excellent. The location off the Bourbon Trail is not perfect and even though it's an hour ride to Louisville and Lexington, it's still a very pretty and fast ride (we did it every day with no complaints). The town of Springfield was not all that but Bardstown certainly was (must go). The hosts could not have been nicer and would have been there as needed, but we really did not need them. Great Time. Great Experience. Thank you.

Bardstown/Springfield, KY

We are a party of 8 (4 couples). The property is as beautiful as advertised. The house and accommodations were great. It is a bit out in the country but beautiful scenery. I most definitely recommend this for a group size like ours. And you can’t beat the outside bldg bar with a big screen tv next to the pond.

Super easy in and out - right in the middle of everything! Wish it wasn't as hot so we could take more advantage of the outdoor space but thats on the weather not on this listing! They have a ton of cool things to do outside! Could not recommend them more, super clean, AC worked great and communication was perfect. Thank you for making our family trip hassle free!

Beautiful country side Kentucky home

I cannot recommend this property highly enough! We stayed 5 days with a group of 3 couples. The home was spacious, clean, and looked exactly like the pictures. The location was excellent to explore bourbon country, and we also spent a morning at mammoth cove. Andy and Melynda were easy to get ahold of and extremely helpful and easy to get ahold of, and having fire wood on site we could purchase was super convenient. We loved the outside bar and firepit, and watched some beautiful sunsets fireside. We would absolutely stay here again.

Bourbon trail fun

We truly enjoyed this property! The home was clean and was in a perfect setting. We enjoyed the outside bar facility and playing corn hole when we were not on one of our tours. My only negative is if you want specific toilet papers for septic, and that is great, then you should supply and have extra supplies there. Other than that everything was perfect!

Why they chose this property

This property was originally built by my wife's uncle. He loved this place and dug the lake and ponds himself. It was his dream home. We bought the property in late 2021 and started the remodel in January and it took us about 4 months to complete. We love this property. We put our heart and soul into making it a place we would love to visit ourselves. You will enjoy the views and privacy.

What makes this property unique

You will have all the comfort of home in a quiet rural setting. It is hard to beat!
