This is our 2nd stay at Anchorhold Farm/The Lodge. This time we took our adult kids for a long weekend to spend time together, enjoy the bourbon trail, Keeneland and playing games around the big table. Everyone of them said they would return in a heartbeat. You won't find a more beautiful property or accommodations. The large space and bedrooms were comfortable and nicely appointed. We lacked nothing as the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could imagine. Clear starry nights on the back patio and early morning sunrises on the front screened in porch were definitely a highlight for all. Thank you Jamie & Lisa for sharing your slice of heaven with us again, we are grateful for the hospitality and kindness!

Peaceful Family Getaway

The rolling hills, creek, and overall scenery surrounding the lodge was amazing. It was perfect for our small family getaway and we hope to visit again. If you’re looking for tranquility, this is the perfect place.

Beautiful Mountain Home

We are from Nashville and wanted to stay in the country but near enough to Lexington and Versailles. This property is beautiful and so relaxing for a short getaway. Great back deck views and plenty of hiking around. If you want privacy and quiet this is a great place to stay. Jeff H

Amazing views!

We had such a relaxing trip at this lovely cabin! The views from the hilltop were gorgeous, and we thoroughly enjoyed gazing at the stars while relaxing in the hot tub. Also, this was one of the cleanest homes we have ever rented! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a secluded get-away that is still so close to everything in bourbon country.

Lovely family Christmas

We enjoyed a lovely week at the lodge relaxing, cooking together, hiking, playing games, watching sports & holiday shows. Barely left the property, except to visit the KY castle & distillery, and were quite content! Highly recommend.

Perfect!

This is the second time that we have stayed at the Lodge, and we love everything about it! The views are stunning, it's close enough to everything, but far enough away that you can really enjoy watching the wildlife and nature. The Lodge is so clean, comfortable, and restful. We highly recommend it and hope to stay there again in the future!

Beautiful Kentucky Home

This is a beautiful, large home on a hill with acreage. We visited in March. The three-season room was refreshing on warmer days, and the land was enjoyable to walk with the dogs. The beds were very comfortable, and the home space was very inviting. Communicating with the owners was easy. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Heavenly Retreat in the Country

Our group of 5 couples thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, well stocked, and very spacious for our large group. The vistas from the house were breathtaking. Information from the owner about the house and driving instruction were so helpful we never needed to contact for assistance. We would happily return in the future.

Great views with a lot of space and wildlife

The house is a really great space for larger groups. Plenty of space for groups to visit in 3 sitting areas, including one in the master bedroom. The views from living room and screened porch are fantastic. The house was clean and beds were very comfortable. Lisa was extremely accommodating for us and the check in/out procedures are the easiest I've had with a VRBO property. Overall just an excellent experience.

50th anniversary celebration

This property is stunning and expansive and just what we were looking for to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary. The house was much larger than the photos appear and we had plenty of room to spread out, prepare and then enjoy meals together. The Kroger card on the refrigerator was a nice touch too! There is a reason this property has a high rating. We felt like we were lucky to have stumble upon it and definitely want to make plans to return.

Great time!

Three of my first cousins and our spouses stayed here for three nights. We had a wonderful time. It is a great house and located in a very private and remote location. The description of the road was factual but warning us about the location one lane road and numerous no trespassing signs would have been helpful!

Our stay at Anchorhold Farm

We appreciated the lovely setting. Yes, it is rural, but close to Lexington. We were an extended family ranging in age from almost 2 to 75. The common areas were terrific for our family. The kitchen was well stocked so we could make brownies and cook more complex meals. The little ones appreciated the driveway for riding bikes and other vehicles. We also appreciated the games, toys and other amenities that were enjoyed by everyone.
