Exceptional is an understatement!

Exceptional hospitality and thoughtful amenities is an understatement. This listing promises a lot and over-delivers! We went to Bowling Green for a wedding and long weekend, never dreaming that before checking out, we would book a 10-day vacation later this year. Not for any event or special reason. Simply to come back and stay here! Not everyone bases their whole vacation on what the rental is like. But we do. Sure, we want comfortable beds which they all are. A kitchen with all the right equipment which it definitely is. Our enjoyment comes from relaxing, cooking and just "being" there. That's not to say there's any shortage of convenient shopping and places to eat...all within a very short distance. There's more than plenty of that. My Kentucky Home is a home we were sad to leave. There's no need to elaborate on what Margaret has written about her place. Printed words and pictures, although 100% spot on, can't fully capture the experience of walking through the door into this pristine home. Another point that makes this place a cut above is her generosity in allowing us flexibility in checkin and checkout time. We cannot wait to go back!

"My Kentucky Home"

This was by far one of our favorite VRBO experiences! Margaret is the most thoughtful and warm hostess! She made us feel welcome even before we arrived and upon arrival, we were met with so many personal touches. She was also easy to contact with any questions. There are wonderful amenities, the house & all items are perfectly clean, generous availability of linens, toiletries, dishes, games, books etc. The decor provides interesting & beautiful variety of local color that was fun to enjoy. The house has such charm & character, including outdoor seating and so much room throughout the house. We hope to be able to stay there again - it truly felt like we were being personally welcomed & cared for in a beautiful home!

Fantastic house convenient location

This house is everything the online listing shows and then some. The host even provided homemade sourdough bread and homemade candy and had it waiting for us on the kitchen counter when we arrived. It was the best bread we have ever eaten! Location is perfect- only a short 13 min drive to the Corvette museum and convenient to a variety of restaurants and movie theater. Easy to rate this one five stars!

About the host

Hosted by Margaret

When I was a full-time pharmacist, this house was The Resurrection Shop - my part-time happy place, where we made old furniture new again, hosted art classes and best of all, met so many wonderful people.

When covid restrictions forced us to close the business, followed by tornado damage in December of '21, we chose to completely renovate the property as an upscale, short term rental, so we can once again welcome new friends to our home town.
