⭐ 5 Star Reviews from our past guests:
"We had a great time in this house! Clean, cozy, everything is thought out to the smallest detail - from comfortable mattresses to a fully equipped kitchen. Special thanks to the owner: always in touch, gave a lot of useful advice on local entertainment and restaurants. We recommend it to anyone who wants to spend a carefree holiday!" - Mirbek
This home was exactly like the pictures showed. It was clean and was ready for us when we checked in. Seth was great and very responsive! The location is in a nice quiet area which was peaceful. It was super close to shops and grocery stores. We were there for a wedding so everything was no more than a 10 minute drive. Definitely would recommend this home for big groups and will be staying here again when coming to Lexington!" - Deina
"Great spacious house just minutes from downtown Lex. Back deck was great to relax by the fire pit, and basement was cool spot to relax as a group. Very accommodating host and would definitely stay here again!" - Brandon

The property was just as described and made for a wonderful home base while in Lexington. The owner was great with communication and making sure we were all set and comfortable. The neighborhood was very safe and peaceful, we’d absolutely rebook this home again!
This is my groups second stay at this property and it didn’t disappoint. Well adorned, comfortable furnishings and a great location. We will absolutely be back.
We really enjoyed our stay. The beds were very comfortable and the deck space is awesome. Communication was great. We appreciated the restaurant recommendations.
We traveled for our daughter’s horse competition and the home was perfect location. Home had everything you needed and was very clean. Great place for family and girls getaway.
We needed a big place to stay to accommodate our family, and this place was excellent. Bigger in person than the pictures show. The game room was a fantastic bonus we could use without disturbing sleeping family.
Stayed here for a mom’s weekend with our boys attending UK. Great place, very cute and clean. Great communication and recommendations from the owner. Definitely recommend!
My husband, his brother my sister n law and inlaws. Went for a family vacay to take the inlaws to Noahs Ark. The house was perfect for us and very conveniently located. Easy drive whenever we went.
A family reunion to attend keeneland and Kentucky football game! Location was great and easy to access different locations in Lexington. Seth was helpful and so nice. We will be back!
The property was just as advertised and in a great location. Seth answered all of our questions immediately. It was great for a week at the track. Clean and plenty of room for a group. Would definitely stay here again.
We enjoyed the house for our family. Had a chance for all of my kids and their partners to come celebrate together and not have to leave the house, for the most part. It was a very cute house with plenty of beds and space for everyone. Thank you!
Seth (host) was very helpful with information about the house as well as great restaurants and sites to visit. Home was very spacious and well laid out, extremely clean and inviting. Seth was quick to reply to emails with questions we had during our stay.
This was perfect for our UK moms weekend getaway. Check in and communication was very easy & prompt responses from Seth. Comfortably slept 6 (if you shared beds could even be more). Great/ safe location, easy to Uber or Lyft to Campus. Would definitely stay again when in town with a group for a UK event!!
The home is lovely as is the neighborhood where it is located. It is ideally located to shopping, a park, and interstate access. The back deck and yard are great. The beds and bedding are first rate. Seth, the Host, was outstanding with communication before and during our stay. I highly recommend this VRBO because you will feel right at home.
It was a nice, very clean house in a quiet neighborhood ... close to several bourbon distilleries.
Table tennis table in the basement was very nice. Spent mist of our free time playing ping pong.
This is a nice property, charming, safe neighborhood. Remodeled to a high standard. The owner was easily reached and prompt to respond from the minor questions to a big need for ice melts in a surprise snow. There were a few maintenance and housekeeping issues that keep me from giving this a 5. Parking could be a little bit of an issue, 2-3 in driveway, none on road. Have to walk across grass and small incline to get to front door. Bring ALL of your own food needs, even salt and pepper.
This home was perfect for our weeklong stay in Lexington. It is centrally located to many popular locations. The neighborhood was quiet and a great area to walk our dogs! The house was wonderful! The kitchen is stocked with everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable and the water pressure for showers was amazing! Tons of room with a nice additional rec space in the basement. Highly recommend this beautiful home!
This property lives up to the description and more. There was plenty of space for our family, 4 couples in all. The ping pong table in the basement made for some fun family competition. We had everything we needed for some memorable family meals. The location was excellent for easy day trips exploring the surrounding areas. We would definitely book again if our travels bring us back to Kentucky.
It worked for us, we had small children all the way to senior citizen. It was clean, nice furniture, lovely deck with gas fire pit. Quiet neighborhood. We would all recommend it.
