This craftsman style house has been fully renovated as a furnished duplex in a safe and quiet section of downtown Frankfort. The downstairs space (listed here), is tastefully decorated, roomy and comfortable, allowing a cozy flow within the rooms. There is plenty of room in the master bedroom for a pack and play/portable crib as well. In addition, the kitchen is fully functional and perfect for preparing meals. Parking is free and conveniently located directly in front of the house along the street. NOTE: This listing/booking is for the downstairs only section of this house. You will have your own full bathroom and full kitchen and amenities. You may or may not be booked at the same time as another guest that would be staying in the upstairs unit. The connecting door will be closed and locked and you will have your own entrance and key. The pictures reflect your downstairs unit.
Our house is located downtown, with easy access to nearby highways (60, 64, 127) that will quickly and easily transport you to nearby cities, or we have several famous, beautiful scenic routes (Old Frankfort Pike) that wind through horse country.
Please note that the full bathroom downstairs is located in the master bedroom. This may be fine with families that have kids sleeping in the guest bed or friends who do not mind each other walking in and out of their bedroom to get to the bathroom. probably not ideal for 2 couples to stay here as bedrooms are not fully private.
Also please note that we do not have a dining room table. That seems to be the most common complaint/request. We have put in a desk/eating table in the guest room area for this, as there is just no other place to put a large table. We also put a huge ottoman in the living room to assist with this. Dinner parties would not be an option in this house.

Host was very quick to reply when we had questions. Kitchen was fully stocked and ready for anything, even had coffee for us! Great stay and close to all the distilleries and downtown.
Easy walk to downtown. Or hop on the free trolley -- which stops across the street at the candy shop -- and ride in to downtown. The house provides space to spread out; with ample places to sit and read, including the shady front porch. Far more enjoyable than being restricted to a hotel room.
The house was as described. Kitchen was very nicely appointed with plenty of supplies and dishes. The host left plenty of recommendations and interesting brochures. Very clean and plenty of supplies. We had a small problem with the access code getting into the house which was quickly remedied by the management company. The location was good for our needs. We'd stay again!

I would like to have had the opportunity to experience the property…..HOWEVER, an hour and a half before we were to check in the property owner canceled our reservation. We were literally on the road to the property when they called and said the property was already booked. We were given all the information to stay the day before, the address, the code for entry, and the wi-fi code. We spent our first day of our trip trying to find another location to stay. The owner did offer another place, but it looked awful. We were extremely disappointed with the owner’s lack of compensation. Wrong way to do business!!!!!!
This house was amazing- so cute, great space and the location of anything you wanted to is right around the corner. We loved house and the location. Definitely will be back
