Most Beautiful and Private Setting!
We loved this house and property! We were looking for something that was more private, as well as nicely accommodating 4 families. The house was beautiful and spacious, the property very private! We loved the huge screened-in porch, the large kitchen with a very long dining table that fit everyone (that photo should go on the website as most people appreciate a large dining table). The multiple ovens were amazing. A couple things missing in the kitchen - a toaster (we had brought English Muffins so ended up using the regular oven), a corkscrew for wine, and a regular coffeepot (there is a single-cup Keurig for which they had provided ample Keurig cups, but we had brought our own regular coffee and it takes longer to make single cups for a lot of adults). And no ice maker - 1 large bag of ice was provided; we had to buy more. The bedrooms were clean and beds comfortable....there are a lot of bunkbeds and our daughter said the set they stayed in were a little rickety up top where their kids slept. We also didn't use the bunkbeds in the loft - none of the adults wanted to climb up there and we felt the kids were a little young to be unsupervised in a high place. The lake was good-sized and the kids and son-in-laws made good use of the fishing pontoon boat. Also kayaks there, which we did not use. The Nature Preserve, with nice hiking trails and a small museum area, was within walking distance (we drove with small children). We highly recommend this property!!

Railbird 2024
My family absolutely loved the property. We enjoyed the short drive to Lexington to watch the Railbird music festival. In our down time, the house offered a tranquil environment to relax. Kayaks, fishing poles, and the small boat provided lots to do.

Beautiful Property
Was here with a group of 10+ guys and we slept more than comfortably and had a wonderful time. When you drive up to the property, it truly is breathtaking. We had plans to leave the property more often, but ended up enjoying the grounds and home more than we expected! Full kitchen was stocked with utensils, pots, pans, flatware, etc. As others mentioned, there is no wifi, nor cable. This can be a plus if you’re looking to disconnect with a group of friends or family. That said, there’s good connection on the property (3/5 bars with T-Mobile and Verizon). I would also say we received just one towel per guest, which was a bit tough at times when guests needed another. Also, there’s no body soap nor shampoo, so make sure to bring your own! Water heat was hit or miss depending on how many people showered recently. Also, Ubers/Lyft are spotty but with some patience you can get them and they will come to the house, which is about 1/4 mile from the front gate. Give it about 15-20 minutes. Overall, the property is a 10/10 and our stay was an 8/10, just wanted to answer questions we had for the host, Jack, who was awesome! Book this spot, you wont regret it.

Beautiful Home and Property
The home is enormous, beautifully constructed and decorated. Every bedroom was large and all the common/living spaces were huge. The screened in porch with beautiful stonework and wood burning fireplace is under appreciated in the listing. Kitchen was well appointed and had all the basic kitchenware and flatware needed to make large meals. The home is very secluded and you are completely isolated from other homes. Property owner was very professional and responsive when a few very minor electrical socket issues arose on the first evening. I even said it isn’t a big deal, but he was out there the next morning with an electrician and fixed it quickly. Place says it sleeps 12, but I’m telling you 20 people could stay there and still be very comfortable with air mattresses. A/C works amazing for such a large place! Only one downside- No Wifi and only network TV channels available made living in a modern world a bit inconvenient because we are all sports fans and wanted to watch a couple games. Definitely NOT for the elderly or handicapped people that have issues with stairs - there are many of them. HIGHLY recommend both the property and the management.

It was a wonderful stay. We had a bachelorette party and it was perfect. A lot of room to have fun. The AC went out and the owner was there within 10 minutes to help fix it. There is no Wi-Fi which was fine since we had service there but wish that was a bit more clear. Other than that it was a wonderful stay!

Great Weekend & House for Keeneland
We had 10 gentlemen ages 26 to 60 visiting the Lexington area for the Keeneland Spring Meets. The house was great! Owner was easy to communicate with regarding any questions. House is well stocked with essentials and a very nice and clean home. Plenty of exterior and interior room to spread out and relax. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to visit the Lexington area.

Great place for our group to gather
We had a group of 12 former teammates gather for a get-together after not being able to meet up for several years. This house just south of Lexington was a great place to meet. Spacious kitchen and living room, lots of outdoor spaces, a fire pit, and comfortable bedrooms. The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, glassware and cooking utensils. The location was great, overlooking a pond, and close to Raven Run Park for a good hike to the river overlook. One thing to be aware of is that the loft is accessed with a steep ladder. Younger visitors would probably have no problem, and I’m sure kids would love that space. We utilized the spacious lower level to set out a mattress and it was just fine. We all really enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful Stay
We had 10 adults staying and sleeping quarters worked out for most couples although very tight in smaller beds (doubles). The kitchen was well stocked with the things you need for preparing meals. The views from the deck overlooking the lake at night are breathtaking. The manager was extremely responsive and very accommodating. It proved to be the perfect location tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Lexington yet easily accessible to many wonderful sites.

I rented this house for my brother's bachelor party and it met every need we had perfectly. Jack, the owner, was patient and understanding as we dealt with ever evolving plans due to Covid. He was an ideal host. If I ever go back to Kentucky, I would stay here again in a heartbeat. 5/5!!

Wonderful getaway!!
My friends and family planned this trip as a memorial trip for my sister who passed away in July 2020. This house/property exceeded our expectations. The beautiful countryside along with all the conveniences of home. The lake/property was wonderful, and the house was very clean and comfortable. We loved the screened in porch with fireplace! The only thing that we thought would be helpful is if there were instructions on how to use the radio play over the house speakers. We loved it!! This place may become an routine place for us to get together!

Perfect group getaway
The house sits on an expansive property in Kentucky's scenic horse-farm country. Our group was there on a golf outing (outstanding courses BTW) and the ample space allowed us to enjoy dinners as a group as well as lounging on the deck. The kitchen is nicely appointed with two ovens, 6 burner range, gas grill, and covection microwave. No WIFI in the house, so add some minutes to your data plans or unplug during your stay. We plan to go back next year and hope to be able to stay here again. Perfect for 10-15 adults.

Great Cabin - Would stay again!!!
Our men's bible study had a retreat here. We had a really good time. Cabin was secluded location, house was good size for 10 adult men, the lake was beautiful, and it was good proximity to distilleries/grocery. Everything looked just like pictures. Would recommend for sure! Things to note was some of our group said beds were too "firm" or "hard." Personally I like a firmer mattress, so I found it comfortable... but picky sleepers may struggle. Also there is no wifi for guests. Which for us this was perfect because we were looking to unplug. But something to note if you need wifi.

Phenomenal! Plenty of space indoors and out for a 20+ family and friends celebration. (Nine people stayed the weekend in the house) The screened in porch with fireplace, outdoor deck seating, fire pit and fishing lake were enjoyed by all. Spacious well equipped kitchen was in constant use. Jack, the owner was very helpful and responsive as needed.
