Our family of 4 really enjoyed our stay at Hutchinson Train Station! The views were beautiful and the place was so spacious and clean. When we arrived there were fresh flowers placed throughout house and homemade cookies on the counter (our kids loved these)!! The horses and donkeys were so much fun to watch! We will definitely be back!!!

Exceeded All Expectations!

What a great place to stay! The location is beautiful. We were there for the K3D and after traipsing around all day for three days, we thoroughly enjoyed coming "home" to our beautiful and tastefully renovated "train station." It was comfortable, relaxing, spotlessly clean and well maintained. The owner and his wife live nearby and were clearly available if we needed anything. His wife added special touches that made us feel very welcome. It's a great place to stay!

Spacious elegant stay in horse country

The property was immaculate and well designed. The view of the horse pastures was wonderful as were the mares and foals. Wonderful high ceilings and a light filled great room. My only critique is that there is no house number so it took a couple minutes to find.

Absolutely beautiful!

This property is absolutely beautiful. Clean, comfy beds, beautifully decorated and well furnished. Gorgeous setting! Only drawback was the kitchen only has an undercounter refrigerator without a freezer. That means a LONG trek back to the refr/freezer in the laundry room - probably not a big deal for most people without a "walking problem". Such a gorgeous, well kept property! Easy trip to super walmart and Paris.

Perfect Setting

The train station surpassed our expectations. Everything about it was nice and polished. The floors, lighting and many of the details were similar to what would have originally existed in a train station. The bed was very comfortable which is a bit unusual when it is not your own bed. We enjoyed walking the property and vsiting the horses and donkeys. Not sure if we will even have another opportunity to be in Paris, but we would definitely stay again if we did.

Donkeys & more!

What a great property! It was bigger than anticipated with large, spacious bedrooms. The property is very clean with beautiful wood floors. It is located right in the middle of horse country and an easy (and beautiful) drive into downtown Lexington (about 20 minutes). The donkeys were a hit with all and enjoyed the apples and carrots. Communication with the owners was very easy. You will potentially meet the owners and others working the property. All were very pleasant, happy to help & answer any questions. I highly recommend this rental! It is one floor with parking on a well maintained gravel driveway.

First visit to Lexington and could not have picked better place to stay. The renovation of this building is very beautiful and the view out the windows of the horses! Bed very comfortable--shower good--all very comfortable. Yes, refrigerator is down the hall but not big deal. The donkeysloved the carrots we brought and short drives to ClaiborneFarms, Old Friends Farm, and Horse Park. Note: building is right on the road. All in all, great stay.
