Neighborhood

Nestled in the heart of Kentucky's Capital City, our property is surrounded by the charm and history of Frankfort. Located along the world-famous Bourbon Trail, the neighborhood offers a perfect mix of small-town warmth and vibrant attractions. I love the friendly atmosphere, where locals greet you with a smile, and the convenience of being close to downtown’s historic sites, unique shops, and delicious restaurants. The area is a paradise for bourbon enthusiasts, with renowned distilleries just a short drive away, offering tours, tastings, and exclusive selections. Some of the things I love most about the neighborhood are scenic views, beautiful historic homes, and the serene Kentucky River nearby. Whether it’s enjoying a morning coffee on the deck, exploring downtown’s rich history, or winding down in the evening in the hot tub or around the fire pit table, this neighborhood provides the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. It's a special place that truly feels like home, and I’m excited to share it with guests!

Guest access

All areas of the 2500 sq ft house are available for guests to use except for a supply closet upstairs, a supply closet in the basement and the areas near the hot tub that are curtained off.

Such a pleasant experience. Start to finish. House is charming and comfortable. Comfortable for 5-6 guests. We enjoyed the game room. It was easy to locate kitchen items because of the labels on the cabinets. The charming house is located in a central location to shops and restaurants in Frankfort. We already booked again!!

Our stay was perfect! The hot tub was just the icing on the cake... Great restaurants within walking distance, and the neighborhood was really quiet. The front door parking was a definite plus!
