Located on the Bourbon Trail, you are steps from Barton's Distillery and a short drive from several other popular distilleries. Churchill Downs, Keeneland, Mammoth Cave National Park and other popular attractions are within an hours drive making this cottage the perfect base for exploring Kentucky.

Great location, close to so many things! Amazing hosts, quick and excellent communication!

10.0 / 10.0

The house worked perfectly for us. Just 4 blocks to downtown Bardstown. Enjoy your bourbon, with no need to drive. House is old, but well kept. The house was ideal for our father & son bourbon experience.

10.0 / 10.0

Nice modernized cottage. Everything was as listed and very easy check-in with keypad on door. Walking distance to downtown Bardstown. No issues and plenty of amenities in the kitchen. Would sleep 4 comfortably, and possibly another person in the living room if you had to. Very nice. Only criticism would be the road is VERY busy with VERY fast-moving vehicles. Back into the driveway and watch the kiddos.

10.0 / 10.0

This was a great little house within a few blocks of downtown Bardstown. House was clean, beds were nice and overall very accommodating. Having laundry was a huge perk as well. Host communicated well, check in/check out was easy. I would 10/10 recommend this property for anyone traveling to Bardstown.

10.0 / 10.0

We found ourselves in a nice smaller home that was ideal for our short visit. Its great location made exploring the area incredibly convenient, allowing easy access to the town's historic sites, restaurants/bars, and distilleries. They have a great front porch that you can sip your bourbon and smell the mash cooking off by the nearby distillery. The cozy atmosphere of the home added to the overall comfort of the trip, making it a memorable experience in the heart of the "Bourbon Capital of the World."

10.0 / 10.0

Awesome communication from the host and very prompt! Perfect size for me and my husband. We did not use the upstairs bedroom; best for a teenager to use (in my opinion). The outdoor gas grill was a bonus! The road does get busy but it did not interfere with sleeping. There is a white noise machine for those who may need it. Bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend!

10.0 / 10.0

The location of the cottage is perfect for a visit to many distilleries as well as things for a non-bourbon drinking wife to enjoy. Bardstown itself is a lovely town.

10.0 / 10.0

The house is beautiful! My nieces had a craft booth at the festival and was perfect for our stay!!! Nicole is a wonderful host!!!!

10.0 / 10.0

We enjoyed our short visit to visit family and explore Bardstown. The house is very comfortable and we easily found everything we needed during our stay. It was a short walk to Third Street and all the restaurants and shops there, and a quick drive to the distilleries and other places we wanted to go. The host provided clear communication and great advice to back into the driveway. The street can be busy when driving out but we didn’t have issues with noise in the house. This a was a great base for our trip.

10.0 / 10.0

The communication with the host was top notch both via the app and in printed instructions posted on the fridge. The home was a great place for a base for visiting the distilleries. Yet the two best experiences were in the list of recommendations from the hosts: the Oscar Getz museum was very interesting and well worth the free price of admission; And plan on obtaining reservations for the Rickhouse because both the ambience and quality of food are excellent. Another recommendation for drinks and buying alcohol is the Evergreen. A lovely bar located in a liquor store for one stop drinking and buying. As for the house it is located on main road so the traffic can be heard going by but it quiets down at night and we didn’t have any trouble sleeping. It had everything we needed for our stay. Thanks Nicole

The property was very clean! It is also very close to the distilleries. It had all the amenities we needed. The only issue was the one bathroom and the lack of a hallway resulting in going through the bedroom if the bathroom was being used. Needless to sssy we figured it out and would stay there afsin

10.0 / 10.0

House was cute and comfortable! Clean and just as described! We walked down the street to restaurants/bars every night! We will be back!

My husband and I stayed in the Bardstown Cottage after dropping our youngest daughter off at college. We were needing a distraction and had the best time on the Bourbon Trail! The location of the Cottage was perfect to many distilleries. The town has a ton of charm too. The cottage itself was comfortable, clean, and well stocked. We didn't cook much, but the kitchen was stocked if we wanted to. The property was clean and was just as listed. I would highly recommend staying here.

10.0 / 10.0

This is an older home right in the heart of Bardstown. The place is so close to distilleries you can smell the sweet mash outside in the yard! It was a perfect base for our short adventure. When we arrived there was an issue with the HVAC. I messaged the owner through the app and they were at the house in minutes. This was on the evening before a holiday. They got everything up and running. They also offered to move us to another property if there were any more problems (there were not any more problems). The owner messaged us a few times during the stay to check on the HVAC. She also sent us a list of some local events we might like to do while in town - very helpful. This is a great place for 2 to 4 people to stay for a Bardstown trip. Highly recommend. And I would gladly stay at any property from this owner again!

10.0 / 10.0

We were in town for the PGA Championship. We loved Bardstown. The town is very beautiful and such a well kept historic town. We look forward to going back in the future. There are many great restaurants and distilleries in the area. The location was very convenient to all the small towns where the distilleries were located. The house we rented had great accommodations. It was very clean and well kept. Keurig for making coffee with good variety of K-cups. We would recommend staying here again. The owner did a great job responding to messages.

We enjoyed our time in Bradstown. The property was charming and very clean. I will say the traffic noise the floor creaking made it hard to sleep at times.

10.0 / 10.0

My wife did Geneology. We did the Civil War museum and women’s museum. Good restaurants. Bernheim Forest was very interesting and good hiking. Great restaurants from Drugstore counter to historic places. Lots of distilleries but a good museum covers a lot for those not into $$$ for bourbon. Very nice home.

10.0 / 10.0

We absolutely adored this sweet little home. We were traveling with our kids, ages 4 and 7 and we were supposed to have 6 total with us and this house would have perfectly accomodated us all. The beds were comfy, the space was very clean, decorated well and was very peaceful and welcoming. You can tell this home was newly renovated as there were lots of brand new touches across the home. Two things to be mindful of when booking, the second bedroom is on the second floor, the stairs are rather steep so if you have trouble with stairs these are not ones you want to climb, however the bedroom is adorable and has a little living area you can watch tv at. Second, the house is in a great location, but the street is very busy and you can hear the loud cars pass by at times. My family and I would definitely book this place again.
