We loved our stay! The home has everything you could want. Great place for keeping kiddos and adults happy. Host was was fantastic and quick with every response.
We had an amazing week at Backroads and Barrels! The house is centrally located, which is one reason we loved it so much. We did daily excursions to different parts of the state (ie Louisville, Lexington, Mammoth Cave, Red River Gorge, Versailles, etc). The house itself was everything we could’ve hoped! The pup enjoyed the fenced in portion of the backyard. The kiddos loved the golf simulator and the theater room. The grownups especially enjoyed the beautiful views and relaxing vibes of the front porch and the back deck. And the whole family had some awesome quality time in the hot tub and around the fire pit! The entire process from start to finish was smooth and the owner was organized, attentive and communicated effectively and efficiently! Highly recommend!
