Keeneland Weekend

This lovely home was just a half mile walk to UK campus (north end) and easy walk to downtown and Rupp Arena. We also were able to easily walk to the nearby Kroger and several restaurants in the area. We had easy drive to both Keeneland (a must do even for people who aren't into live racing) as well as Kentucky Horse Park. The neighborhood is a nice mix of students and families and very safe. The home was actually larger than we anticipated and could have easily accommodated a family with kids, given the extra upstairs space. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware for nearly any meal you would make. The only issue we had was accidentally locking ourselves out by engaging the knob mechanism on the front door. Thankfully the owner was very responsive and solved the issue immediately. We would recommend a sign on the front door inside reminding people to not use the knob lock when leaving, to use the keypad for the deadbolt only. Would 100% stay again for my next trip to Lexington

Great Place To Stay!

This property was perfect for a weekend stay. The house was very clean and had many amenities to offer for guests. The location was perfect as it is super close to Chevy Chase and a five minute walk to Kroger. I would totally recommend staying here!

Convenient and Comfy Home Near UK Campus

This home is a 4 min drive/20 min walk from UK campus. Kroger, Starbucks, Jimmy Johns, and a bagel shop are within a few blocks. A cute used book shop and gift shops are a 10 min walk away and the main public library/downtown area are a 20 min walk. The home itself is a little worn on the outside (needs some paint) but it is cozy and well-decorated inside with many new fixtures and appliances. The home was clean and we melted into the beds. Think hotel quality for the beds and covers. The upstairs loft area was very warm compared to the downstairs and was great for reading and relaxing. Internet connection was ok, but did drop now and then. TV connection was smooth. Kitchen was well-stocked with everything you need for cooking. Bathroom door could use a hook latch as it had a tendency to pop open. Owner was super-responsive. I would highly recommend this home.
