About this house rental
Historic Morrison Cabin is the oldest home in Lexington on its original foundation. It was built by John Morrison in 1787 when Kentucky was still a part of Virginia. John Morrison was one of Lexington's founders. He built the home for his wife, the first woman to live in Lexington. It is ideally located in historic Gratz Park, across the street from Transylvania University.
Morrison Cabin has been meticulously restored, offering all modern amenities while maintaining its historical elegance and integrity. Guests will be just a few short blocks and within easy walking distance to the Lexington Convention Center, Opera House, Rupp Arena, and the best dining and nightlife Lexington has to offer. Free off street parking is available directly behind the cabin. The location offers convenient and easy access to Keeneland, the Kentucky Horse Park, The University of Kentucky, Commonwealth Stadium, Kentucky's famous horse farms and distilleries. Lexington is a hub with proximity to Cincinnati and Louisville and all things Derby.
Upon request (and availability) our house chef can cater breakfast, dinner, or special events.

We enjoyed this step back into time by staying at the Morrison cabin. The host provided wonderful ambience with a live Christmas wreath on the front door & a small tree indoors. The kitchen was well stocked with nice dishes & glassware. We used the combo coffee pot & espresso machine. The location was perfect for walking tours of downtown Lexington. It was very comfortable for our family of 6 adults.

I actually was not able to stay there myself due to my father passing away, but my husband and friends loved it
