This little spot was everything myself and a couple of old friends needed for a long weekend. Very close to major distilleries. Neighborhood was quiet, and the yard spacious. Check in and check out was seamless. Everything needed for the stay was there. I will definitely stay there again!

Judi was very communicative, the cabin was so clean, and it was more spacious than it appeared to be in the pictures which was a nice surprise. 10/10

We had a great stay at the Oak Lodge! Definitely one of the most unique places we’ve been to! We did a last week of Summer break getaway with our three children (9, 5 and 3). They loved it and found the bookshelf with the toys right away! The house was equipped with anything we would need during our stay. It was a short distance to Shaker Village and Old Fort Harrod which were fun day trips. It’s also conveniently located to restaurants, grocery stores and more. Judi is an excellent host. She was very communicative and responsive. We will definitely stay again the next time we are in the area!

We were headed back to Columbus, Ohio from Nashville and wanted a quaint place to spend the evening. This cabin was great. Very historic and full of charm. Loved the screen porch. Would come back.

I grew up in a place with many of the features this cabin has, so there was a touch of nostalgia to it for me. It's a charming place for sure, with antiques throughout. The screened porch is an especially nice addition! Just be aware that there is a musty smell that may linger on your clothes for a few days even after you wash them, and as the description says it IS close to everything, including train tracks, so there is no quiet to be had, even at night. Fortunately, this means your group can sit out on the screened porch to talk and laugh without worrying about disturbing neighbors. There is a cemetery very close by, which is a great place to walk. The description said this place has a "golf course front," but we saw no golf courses nearby. Didn't miss it, though, since the cemetery did the trick. The host, Judi, is magnificent -- probably the best hands-off host we've ever experienced in all our years of using services like Vrbo. I definitely recommend the Oak Lodge if you'd like to experience some historical charm to go along with your distillery tours!

The cabin is an authentic log cabin with modern amenities. It brought about a great discussion of how the pioneers might have lived and how hard it was then. Judi had some extra conveniences that made it extra nice. The trains the regularly pass briught a lot of discussion about Early America. Thank you for your hospitality. added an extra tocinversatins.

My husband and I throughly enjoyed our trip and stay at the cabin. We immersed ourselves into the history of the area and appreciated everything this cabin has seen and been through. Judi was an amazing host, she had snacks ready for when you arrived and the place was very clean and welcoming! Thank you Judi for your hospitality and your quickness with responses.

First of all I want to say I love this place but I just can't. The owner is very nice and absolutely easy to work with but the cabin is in need of repair and a thorough cleaning. With taxes and fees the price was near 385$ which is very steep for this room. First impression.... very unlike the VRBO picture, it is located on a very busy intersection with a train station nearby. It was quite loud. Upon entering, the musty smell was overwhelming .. it is a rustic 1818 cabin, rich with history I know, but rustic and ok for guests are two different things. My husband and I could see the outside from inside the house, again rustic I know, but the spider webs were literally everywhere and mouse droppings were evident on both levels. The bedding was clean and temperature was nice and I did appreciate the snacks provided by the host. If you choose to stay here keep in mind it is very rustic and a little
More primitive than i prefer.

Couldn't think of a better place to stay while enjoying the Bourbon Trail. Many distilleries close by. The home was well kept, clean, and so amazingly decorated.

Oh my goodness! The cabin is marvelous. The location central. The host is the most! Great communication, recommendations and service. The cabin is near train tracks but I for one love the sound of a train. We absolutely loved staying there and Judi is the best! We hope to be back!

We were in town for a soccer tournament which was about 15-20 mins away from the cabin. The check-in and check-out was super easy and the host was was very responsive. The cabin so cute and has so much charm, I wish we could have stayed a few extra days.

Our stay at that Oak Lodge was a wonderful experience. The historic building was nicely furnished and outfitted. There were a lot of little touches that enhanced our stay. Plenty of coffee for mornings on the patio, books and magazines highlighting the history etc.
Our host was wonderful and accommodating.
We will be in the area annually and this will be our first choice in years to come.

We stayed at Oak Lodge with the idea it would be a stop off
while touring KY. We found that we could not wait to get back to the cabin.
The screened back porch was a get together for the 3 of us to visit. We had our wine and talked a lot.
We would stay again for sure. Clean, the amenities were great. Only downfall was the traffic and noice of trucks.

Everything was first-rate , from start to finish. Great booking experience and great location. Cabin is exactly as advertised—it is beautifully restored and quite comfortable. It would be worth booking it just for the pleasure of staying in it, even if you didn’t do anything else during your visit! Our favorite part was the screened back porch. The location is perfect for bourbon tours, and we combined those with baseball in Lexington. Judith makes sure that everything is just right for your stay, with coffee and snacks there when you arrive. This is a great place to stay.

What a great little cabin. The host made sure everything was ready to go, including snacks and personal items (shampoo etc) were available for road weary travelers. The property was clean and we did enjoy the stay. What no one mentions in other reviews is that this little house is right on a main drag, and across the street from an industrial park. We listened to loud trucks, cars and an odd amount of motorcycles the entire 2 nights we were there. Because this is truly an old cabin, sound insulation didn’t exist when it was built. Again a nice stay, great host, but the noise prevents you from getting a restful night of sleep.
