We had a fantastic stay at the Man O’ War Cottage in Versailles, Ky. The cottage was spotless. The kitchen was well equipped. And the owner was very personable and easy to deal with. There were several wonderful shops in walking distance. It was a good value. I would highly recommend staying here. It’s a short drive to Lexington and Keeneland Race Track.
This was a perfect location to stay to visit Woodford, Buffalo Trace and Wild Turkey. We especially enjoyed being able to walk to all the restaurants and shops that we very close to the unit.
This is the perfect place for Bourbon Trail, Keeneland, and other activities. The walking trail and park in the backyard is perfect for walking your furry friend too. The accommodations could not have been better. It is clean, well equipped and convenient. I’ve stayed in many VRBO’s and this is by far the best!
