This place is absolutely beautiful. The most warm, welcoming, and unique property we've experienced. There were five of us in our party. Each of us are well-traveled and we couldn't stop talking about how perfectly this house was remodeled and decorated, and how comfortable our say was. We didn't want to leave. The communication with the owners was great. The organization of everything was perfect. I can't say enough about it. I will be looking for excuses to return to this area for another stay.

Long weekend stay near family

Visiting Harrodsburg for my niece’s wedding. House is beautiful and conveniently located. So classically decorated with plenty of room. Since is right beside the train tracks, the train can sound a bit loud but owners thoughtfully provided sound machines, fans, and ear plugs :) Coffee and a few snacks provided as well was a special touch. Owner very responsive.

Why they chose this property

We fell in Love with the Historic Downtown Harrodsburg, KY area due to its charm and small town feel. We also love the Train and having it be a part of the experience of the home for our guests.

We felt welcomed as we explored this charming small town as it has recently been named as one of Kentucky's most charming towns and favorite small towns by World Atlas. You will feel how friendly and inviting it's citizens are when you visit. This is a perfect weekend getaway to explore the rolling hills, bluegrass horse farms, historical places of interest, and so much more!
