Fantastic house. Well stocked. And really clean.

My husband, teen son and I had a charming stay in this beautifully restored and renovated cottage in the country. We loved the location as it was quiet and in the middle of all that is Kentucky Horse Country. Big name Thoroughbred Horse Farms with gorgeous barns, rolling green hills, miles of fences and plenty of stunning horses in the pastures, including foals. Keeneland Race Track is a short drive away and the cute little town of Midway a few minutes drive for shops and great local restaurants/bars. So much early American history around the area within an hours drive radius as well. Of course, Bourbon abounds here, and we were close to many distilleries, visiting Buffalo Trace (which was free!) and Woodford Reserve. The cottage itself was smartly decorated for the location and very well done with top notch linens, towels and kitchen appliances. We did not eat in, choosing to support the local spots but I noticed plenty of pots/pans dishes etc. Since we came during the heat wave we did not use the firepit or get to sit on porch much, but the cottage A/C worked perfect and we wanted for nothing. We would love to come back again and stay at this property, longer this time as it was a highlight of our family vacation.

Andrea is a great host! Second time we’ve stayed here. So good with keeping up with contact if we needed anything. I highly recommend this house!

The cottage is in a perfect location for golf, food, distilleries, and peace and quiet. Plan to make this our regular spot.

We had three couples for a birthday celebration and to check out some bourbon distilleries.
The house was more than spacious for our group, tastefully decorated, and extremely clean. The kithchen has everything you need to cook.
Communication was great from the property owner.
I look forward to coming back in the warmer months to take advantage of the absolutely homey and gorgeous porch and to utilize the outdoor grill.

Absolutely loved our stay. Place is beautiful. Would definitely stay here again. The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. If I was going to be super picky, I would say that the upstairs bedroom does not have a proper closet, but has plenty of dresser drawers for storage and is a nice big room. And for anyone staying with anyone other than family, keep in mind the room upstairs only has a half bath. This just makes it so you have to juggle shower times a bit. Can’t say enough good about this house. We truly loved our stay. We were close to Keeneland, and used this as our base for going to the races, and touring farms and distilleries in the area. The town of Midway is very close and a really cute stop with several restaurant options. Oh and the front porch is an amazing place to sit and sip a cocktail and watch the sunset. Host is super responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

I cannot say enough good things about this property! The pictures do not do it justice. Everything we needed was in the kitchen, everything was clean, the beds were comfortable, the grill was perfect for cooking out with friends, and the patio was beautiful and comfortable at night for dinner. I would absolutely stay here again. The check in process was simple. Thank you so much!

This is one of the very best kept secrets in Lexington! Such a beautiful and fully equipped home that provides everything that you need to enjoy your stay in this fabulous area.
There isn’t anything that you need to bring, and will have more to enjoy than time. The beds and baths are awesome, kitchen is beautiful and fully stocked, the decor is amazing and a wonderful porch to enjoy anytime of day.
My daughter was showing her horses at the Kentucky Horse Park which is a short drive. We loved coming home to this comfortable home and the great restaurants and sights close by. We will definitely be back!

Everything was perfect! The house is so warm and cozy and the property is absolutely immaculate. Exactly as the description reads. The host left nothing out! It was like being home away from home. I would recommend this host and property to anyone looking to travel to the Midway / Lexington / Georgetown area. Hoping to go back next year and to stay again!

One of the best rental experiences we have ever had! Andrea is phenomenal, so accommodating, responsive, and friendly. The house is incredibly charming, spacious, and exactly as pictured. Location is absolutely perfect for heading to Keeneland with a beautiful drive and zero traffic. We travel to Lex for Keeneland multiple times a year and can’t wait to stay here again!

Andrea’s home was absolutely perfect for our week in Kentucky for the Keeneland sales. Very accurate description of the property, (which also meant it was easy for an elderly lady to get around on a rollator.) Great location if you enjoy a little peace and quiet, but also with in 15 mins of everything we needed. Would highly recommend to anyone!

The house is in a beautiful rural setting with a perfect front porch to enjoy the scenery. The house is very nice and is as described. It is very efficient for meals before and after a day at Keeneland. Everything worked well and the owner is very responsive. I hope to stay there again soon.

We have a large family and Andrea’s home was absolutely perfect for our stay in preparation for our daughter’s wedding at a nearby farm. This home offered everything we needed with ample space for our preparations. It was clean, well stocked, updated, and beautifully decorated. There were even fall touches to greet us upon arrival. I would absolutely recommend this home for the perfect little get away!

This was the best house we’ve ever stayed in. It was immaculately clean, the host, Andrea, was so helpful and kind. She sent us ideas of things to do and places to enjoy. It was a perfect stay for ten days while my teen was in town for a horse show. We had our infant with us and everything was just as easy as it could possibly be. Perfect distance to KY Horse Park and downtown Midway is absolutely precious. It was the most wonderful stay we’ve ever had while at a horse show. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you, Andrea!

This was clearly the best VRBO I had the pleasure of visiting for 10 nights. Where do I begin? The place was immaculate - tastelfully decorated inside and out (the way you wish you had the skill to do yourself at home : ) , very modern and remodeled and completely stocked with the best of everything. There was no stone left unturned - she thought of everything! Beds were comfortable and linens were comfy! The pantry was loaded - plenty of lush towels with monograms, top of the line kitchen utensils and pans - they had everthing! It was like staying at your favorite aunt's house instead of a rental - loved it so much! Thank you Andrea!

Wonderful Property
We stayed here during our daughter's horse show at KY Horse Park. It was a 12-15 drive in the mornings to the horse park. The house was exceptionally clean and well appointed. There is a ring doorbell system (I assume for security). Checking in to the house was very easy. The beds/linens were very comfortable. The house sits high on a hill with a short scenic drive through beautiful farms. We enjoyed dinner on the patio most nights. The house has absolutely everything you need including some toiletries, coffee, and kitchen necessities. Two things to mention is that the King bedroom is upstairs with only a 1/2 bath and there is no closet. It wasn't that big of a deal, but we did find it odd that the amazing "master suite" had a queen and the King bedroom was upstairs with an adjacent to a loft and 1/2 bath . Needless to say, my mother really enjoyed her ensuite while the other 4 of shared the main bathroom. The second thing to note is that there is limited parking as the house is on a high hill with a very steep driveway with no parking options below. There is parking for two cars and you will need to be able to turn them around completely to safely get down the drive. All and all, not a big deal but should be noted for a future renter. I would definitely look to renting again next year.

Perfect
There are so many things i love about this place. The location is perfect to get from Midway to Lexington and to Keenland. The attention to detail inside is amazing. There is not one thing that is missing from the inside of the home. If you happen to forget something, i am certain it's there. Last but not least, it was clean and comfortable. We loved our stay and will be back.
Thank you Andrea for being a perfect host.

Ideal rental!
I really can’t say enough about this rental, it was a wonderful stay!! The house is amazingly decorated and spotless. There were extra blankets and pillows, and all of the mattresses were extremely comfortable. The house layout worked well for our group. My daughter and her friend shared a room with two twin beds near the kitchen. We were in town for a horse show at the Kentucky horse park, so my daughters trainer was with us and felt very comfortable in the master suite with her own bathroom. I had the entire upstairs with my own queen bedroom and a huge office space in an adjoining room. I feel very thankful to have found this place and will definitely stay again on our next trip! A few other things I was thankful for: 2 full bathroom and another 1/2 bath, a ceiling fan in nearly every room and an extra little fan in the upstairs bedroom (loved it, not due to heat, I just love a little fan for the constant noise and air flow), fully stocked kitchen with pots/pans/coffee maker/Kuerig/huge fridge with condiments……there was not one thing we needed that this house did not have! Thank you!!

Gem among the Horse Farms
My daughter was attending a volleyball showcase at The Yard. Graduating from Georgetown College (a few decades ago), I wanted to be in the area to visit a sorority sister that lives in Georgetown. I also ended up inviting another sorority sister to join my daughter and me. The cottage was ideally located for all our activities. More importantly, it was warmly decorated and accommodated our needs perfectly with three bedrooms. The first morning I made waffles for my daughter in the modern kitchen that was well equipped. The front porch provided a fun and relaxing atmosphere for chats reminiscing our college days with my friend. We ate at Rodney’s on Broadway in Georgetown the first night. Lunch while my daughter was at volleyball in Midway on Saturday at The Heirloom Restaurant. Our evening meal, with our Georgetown friend in attendance, was a “Picnic with the Goats” at The Horse Lodge in Athens.
Andrea was the perfect host and we’ve tentatively made plans to return next year. Without a doubt, our accommodations will be 16.3 Hands named for Triple Crown winner Justify!

Beautiful setting for gathering of friends.
What an amazing time my friends of 30 years and I were able to have at this property. The home is brand new and was So homey and inviting. We spent many of evenings on the front porch playing cards and telling stories of when we were kids. The property is very close to the Bourbon distilleries. Over the weekend we were able to hit 3 of them and enjoyed the grounds Where the bourbon is made. We also were able to have a showing of one of the horse farms And had an amazing time learning the full process of breeding and training the thoroughbred horses. The amazing horse farms which go on for miles of rolling hills and black fences are just breath taking to see. Even though you feel like you are out in the country you are only minutes away from stores and restaurants.Try stopping at some of the local shops and restaurants in town they were amazing. I will definitely be returning for another stay at this location..

Hideaway Getaway
This hidden cottage was the perfect find for our family! There was plenty to do and see in the area, but with all the rain we had, staying indoors was a favorite! The property was quiet, scenic and comfortable for our family. Wonderful memories were made in this hideaway home. Thanks Andrea!

Beautiful! We were looking for a home close to Midway. In my search, I found this sweet cottage home. I love the Shiplap and the decor. The kitchen is awesome! Andrea has it fully equipped to cook in but it is also centrally located to eat out. Beds and linens are comfy for an excellent nights rest. The porch is so inviting, unfortunately it was chilly and rainy and we were unable to enjoy that space! It is a great place when it is warmer for cocktails and games! Just down the road to the South are beautiful rolling hills with miles and miles of fence that keep safe the most gorgeous race horses! Bourbon Distilleries near and awesome black barns scattered over the country side! Andrea is an Awesome Hostess and a great communicator! We hope it be back in the Fall to do some horse tours!

Beautiful home in a great location with beautiful views of horse country!
We loved our girls weekend get-a-way in Midway! What a beautifully decorated brand new property with all the comforts of home. You can easily sleep 6 and we had plenty of room for 5 women getting ready in the 2 1/2 bathrooms. The beds were so comfortable with hotel quality linens. You will love the front porch! There are many things to see and do in the area. Check out the cute downtown shops in Midway and the working Weisenberger Mill. We also explored nearby Georgetown. There are several distilleries nearby; Woodford Reserve is a beautiful property. No matter where you venture to, the views along the way are breath-taking. We will definitely be back!
