Six of us stayed at the Dew Drop Inn for a long weekend of distillery visits and tastings. The cottage was wonderful and we really enjoyed ourselves. We would definitely consider visiting again. The only downside was the wifi was not working very well for most of our stay. The little bit of time some of us were working and/or trying to watch something before bed was a struggle.

Yet another amazing stay at Saxony Farms. The Dew Drop Inn checks all the boxes and was the most enjoyable place to stay for Derby.

This was one of our favorite rentals. It was so peaceful and private. The house itself is so lovely! When we arrived, we were all just blown away by how amazing the house and surrounding property was.
We enjoyed walking the farm as a family and meeting all the horses. Most of them came to the fence to say "hello" and were very friendly. There were about a dozen mares with foals during our stay which was super cool! We will miss all our new horse friends!
The sunsets and sunrises are amazing over the green hills dotted with horses all around and birds singing. We are city folk, so our boys enjoyed playing outside on the lawn. Lots of fantastic family bonding time! The farm became a destination for us, we made sure to leave time in our day to enjoy it.

Fantastic rental! We were visiting from Northern Virginia and the house made us feel like we were truly immersed in horse country. Our daughters loved walking to see the horses every morning and evening, and we enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings and taking in the peace and beauty of the farm. Everything was clean and tidy and well stocked. Thank you for the cookies, flowers, and breakfast items - what a treat!

This property is stunning! Horse country at its best. Long rolling hills, expansive blue sky, tree lined streets, starry nights and the sound of birds to keep you company. Absolute bliss! Close to bourbon trail and all the fun & entertainment that provides, as well.
The owners go out of their way to make the house feel like a home, including fresh flowers, bread, eggs, cookies, cream and OJ! What a delightful experience! Will return and recommend!

We have been to The Dew Drop In at Saxony farms twice and both times our stay was wonderful. The land is beautiful, the house is wonderful, and Rosie is an excellent host! It is a wonderful, quiet, place to get some quality time. It is within driving distance of some excellent restaurants and distilleries. We will be back!

Absolutely Amazing Vacation
The entire experience was amazing from the gorgeous property to the beautiful home. From the moment we walked in the doors we felt right at home and the host family made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay memorable. The home had fresh flowers and delicious cookies! Make sure to take a tour of the farm while you’re there! 10 out of 10 recommended staying at Saxony and we’ll definitely be coming back in the future!

Thanksgiving in Kentucky
Beautiful home and property, rich with history. Superb location. The owners go out of their way to make visitors welcome, even providing a binder that included listings for local favorite restaurants and the best ice cream in the area, not to mention bringing us freshly homemade cookies. We loved our week spent here and are already planning to return in spring or summer.

Great Stay!!
We loved the farm and felt so welcomed. House was great and exactly what our family needed. It was great to stretch our legs in such a beautiful setting but still be convenient to Keeneland, Midway and Lexington.

Quintessential Kentucky
If you're wanting an authentic Kentucky experience this is the place for you. A rare gem in the land of multi-millionaire's hobby horse farms. This is the small family winery in Napa where you taste with the owners next to the multi-national vineyard where you're just another sale.
Ran by a second generation horse farmer with his family on property, you will experience a true working Kentucky farm that provides for those that are fortunate enough to live there. You will get a private tour of the farm with the owner and hear the history that began with his parents, a plat of land, a vision and relentless work. You'll hear how he and his wife have transformed that vision into a beautiful modern farm and venue that fits into today's world.
The new guest cottage is impeccably clean, outfitted with ample space and all the conveniences, extremely private and with pasture views from all windows.
The most welcoming and available of hosts, you are truly their personal guests. You won't regret your visit to the farm or your stay!

Beautiful home; amazing location; pure relaxation
Cannot say enough good things about our stay at the Dew Drop In. The location is absolutely stunning. Beautiful horse farm surrounded by rolling hills. The home is great. Very new, very comfortable, and everything you need for a great trip. Rosie and her family are wonderful hosts. Quick to respond to all questions and even took us on a tour of the horse farm!
If you are looking for a relaxing get-away, this place cannot be beat.

Magical get away
We had an amazing time staying at this house. The house was beautiful and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and supplied. We cooked all of our meals during our stay. The hosts were welcoming and even dropped off freshly baked goodies. Our family enjoyed walks on the farm and the kids were mesmerized by the horses and barn cats. We even spent a lovely early evening sitting on the porch watching the hay bales. The stargazing was spectacular as well. It is in a great location. My kids keep asking to go back!

Great Time!
This house was wonderful for a girls trip of seven women from Texas. There was plenty of room for visiting. We loved sitting on the porch watching the horses come in, and the beautiful sunrises and sunsets. We would highly recommend this house for families and groups. Broussard and a Rosie were great hostesses, even giving us a tour of the farm. Great all around relaxing and beautiful property. Would stay there again!

Great Escape!
For a city family that knows nothing about the farm, this stay was delightful! The hospitality and care was beyond what I’ve experienced with a rental property. Our family with two little ones felt right at home and our 3 year old didn’t want to leave!
Rosie and Broussard were incredibly welcoming. They let us do our thing wandering the farm, checked in occasionally, and provided ideas for our family to check out in the area.
Highly likely we’ll be back!

ALL IN THE VIEWS + DETAILS ✨
I have absolutely no complaints! This guest house is tucked perfectly in the center of beautiful horse country, surrounded by trees, and rolling hills! The house is PERFECT for a relaxing trip. We wanted to get away to some place quiet and it was just that! Every morning and evening we enjoyed coffee or an evening cocktail on the huge wrap around porch,
enjoyed the views, while saying hello to their horses that make their way behind the home to drink some water and graze. Rosie is the sweetest host! She left us some delicious baked cookies, some breakfast basics, & fresh flowers to add a cozy touch to an already cozy home! I could go on forever... but just take my word for it! You will not be disappointed. This place is also only about 15-20 min from downtown Lexington which we ventured and explored a little each day for some wonderful dinner and bourbon drinks! I can’t wait to go back.

Peacefulness in the midst of horse country
The home is absolutely beautiful and the pictures are accurate. We were welcomed with fresh baked cookies and brownies during our stay, which was a really nice touch. The wrap around porch provided a peaceful end to a busy day's work, watching the horses and deer play in the fields. We had a little issue with the stove and grill that the Rosie and Broussard rectified right away. My colleagues and I were traveling for work and this was our last stop on a 2 week journey chosen specifically to be able to unwind. We had our bikes with us and took advantage of the beautiful country side and smooth roads. In the evening after dinner, the farm is a great place for a stroll and so quiet. I hope to have the opportunity to visit again soon but this time with my family.

Girls Weekend
Our stay was beyond our expectations. The home was beautiful and beautifully equipped with everything you need. We had six adults on the trip and the house could have easily accommodated eight.
The family was lovely and greeted us upon arrival. The view is breathtaking. This morning we all enjoyed watching the horses playing right outside the front door.
During our stay we visited a local winery Equus and spent a day at Keeneland. Both locations were 15 minutes from the house.
We would highly recommend this location. Thank you Rosie.

Heaven on earth
First let me say that this property is exactly as described. The owners were wonderful to work with and the entire experience was just marvelous. The home is beautifully decorated and has everything you need. The property itself is so peaceful and very centrally located while still feeling remote. We travelled for a football game at UK and took in several bourbon stops all close to the home while visiting. If you get a chance to go on the tour of the horse farm, please do. Broussard is great at telling his family’s story and the farm itself is beautiful. Rosie, his wife, surprised us with a few things In the fridge to start us off. She also made and left the most delicious oatmeal raisin cookies. I was crushed when I realized I had accidentally forgotten to take them with us! We had a large group while staying so I slept on the pull out couch. I was assured it was a comfortable pull out and it definitely was. If you are deciding between this and a hotel, definitely choose this option! You will not regret it!

Beautiful and Relaxing!
Our family of five adults found Rose’s home to be very comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated. The kitchen has everything you need to make meals. We especially appreciated breakfast items supplied by Rose! The horse farm tour was fun and very special- as we were able to pet the horses. It was also fun to see the horses in the pastures surrounding the house! Just a very special place to stay with family! Thank you, Rose!!!

BEST PLACE I HAVE EVER STAYED PERIOD!!
This place was awesome! I was in Kentucky buying yearlings at the July sale and wanted a place to come home to and relax and unwind after the sale. I wanted a quiet place with no other people around and boy did I find it. The owners of the property are awesome and amazing. Extremely welcoming and friendly. The house was perfect, very very clean and the views were amongst the best in the blue grass. The sunrise from the master bedroom was the most elegant and picturesque I have ever seen in my life. If you love horse country and are not a fan of hotels and want more room, this is the place to stay. Also the farm tour was so so cool. Thank you Rosie and Broussard for everything. I will be coming back and staying here many many times in the future!

So relaxing in beautiful bluegrass country
Our stay was incredibly relaxing...watching fireflies and mom and baby horses at night from the wraparound porch. Only an hour from Louisville, we spent a Sunday afternoon at Churchill Downs as well a few horse farms on Monday/Tuesday. Lexington has a lot to offer, but we also enjoyed the restaurants and shops in the village of Midway a few miles down the road from Saxony Farm.
