Cozy Farmhouse near Mammoth Cave on 45+ acre animal farm
"This cozy farmhouse is located on a beautiful 45+acre farm with horses, goats, sheep and cows. With 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, this country get-a-way is perfect for all occasions. Located just minutes from I-65 and is right in-between Louisville, KY and Nashville, TN. For tourism, we are located approximately 25 minutes from Mammoth Cave National Park; 20 minutes from Barren River State Park; 40 minutes from National Corvette Museum; and 45 minutes from the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace. It's very peaceful and relaxing.
This small home sits on a big beautiful piece of a KY animal farm! Very clean, comfy beds, reclining leather couch, nice shower, lots of towels, extra blankets, nice backyard area, the kitchen had plenty of dishes and the animals were a Huge plus!!
The house is bigger than it looks, very comfortable and the animals are close by and so peaceful and fun to watch! Great low traffic road for long walks. If you need a rest, this is the best place you could pick to get away. And if youâre looking for fun, this is an active, working farm where everyone is friendly and welcoming, including the animals! Very kind and responsive owner if you have questions. I got a chance to help out with the sheep in the rain and ended up covered in mud and having a fantastic time - canât recommend staying here enough!!
My kids loved the horses! My daughter sat and talked to them for most of an afternoon. The house held our family of 6 easily, and was on a nice quiet street. (Other than the train, but I love a train) Recommend the playground near Hidden River Cave if you have young ones. (Cave was flooded or Iâd likely have a recommendation for it too) Other favorites from the area were âShake my Burgerâ (I think itâs now Sweet Cheeks catering, but Google had it by Shake My Burger) and Kentucky Down Under where got to spend a morning petting kangaroos and emus. Loved the trip, and the kids would go back tomorrow if they could! Thank you for sharing your home and property with us!
We loved our stay and visit to Mammoth Cave. The animals were awesome, and our youngest son loved visiting with the horses each day. The train at night took awhile to get used to, but overall, we had a great time.
House exactly as described. Horses right out the backdoor of the house, friendly and playful. Nice walks through the farm, with sheep, cows, goats, and horses. Nice get-away to relax for the weekend.
My husband, myself and our two girls (3&4) stayed here for a little family getaway. It was exactly what we were looking for! A slice of country. We loved having the horses hang out with us all day, feeding them and relaxing by the fire. Crystal the owner was so gracious, and even sent us flowers for our 8 year anniversary! Highly recommend!
We loved all the homey personal touches in the house and on the property. Thanks for such a cozy stay! Making friends with the horses was such a cool bonus. A wonderful secluded location for sunset strolls. As suggested by others, use the provided fans as it gets quite hot at night with the primary AC blower unit being in the livingroom.
We loved this place! It's exactly as listed, clean, and great communication with host. Our kids loved the animalsđŽđđ! We did Mammoth, down under zoo, dutch safari, Corvette museum, and some bourbon trail. We also enjoyed Farmwalds restaurant/bakery near the down under zoo. Thank you for sharing your happy place!
We rented the house as a group of 4 women for a short girls trip and had an amazing time! The location is beautiful and the house is great for the price. The only things we didnât love was that there is no central AC so there is a single AC unit cooling the whole house and on the first night it was almost too hot to sleep. We also noticed there were plenty of dishes and utensils but lacked baking trays any bigger than what youâd use in a toaster oven so we did end up having to run out to get disposable trays to make frozen pizza. Other than that our stay was great, itâs super close to some really fun activities. We went to the outback zoo just down the road, the ravens cross escape room and Karst beach all of which we greatly enjoyed!
This is a very nice farm house...Great area. Just not a fan of no tv till after dark..But i guess you are not there to watch tv. I would rent again jist will bring my laptop..:) Thank yoy gor sharing your beauatiful home and animals.
We were looking to find a place that could accommodate our family of 6, and this place was perfect for our family. Itâs not far from Mammoth caves and Kentucky Down Under, which were the 2 places we were going while staying here. The listing was accurate and had everything we needed for our family. Itâs out in the country so was pretty quiet other than the occasional train that would go by. Itâs definitely a place we all felt safe at. We enjoyed feeding the horses, and pretty sure they enjoyed us feeding them lol. The other animals didnât have much interest in us, but thatâs ok. There were other things we didnât take advantage of, but worth mentioning: a projector in the living room, a fire pit with wood in the yard, and some toiletries in the bathroom in case you forgot your own stuff. Host also communicated quickly when we had questions. We would definitely recommend to anyone coming to the area looking for a vrbo.
To say we loved this home and property is an understatement. So peaceful and relaxing! The location was perfect for our visiting Mammoth Cave NP. The home and beds were comfortable and provided everything we needed for our stay! Seeing the sheep and petting/feeding the horses every day was one of the highlights of our trip, specifically our 3.5 year old daughter! She was so very sad to leave her horse friends!
The host was very friendly and easy to contact at any point before or during our stay. We would definitely book again the next time we visit the area! Highly recommend staying at this gem!
This property was exactly what we needed to escape our corporate jobs and reconnect. The property manager was excellent. She respected our privacy, but gave us a chance to feed the animals! The animals were all so sweet, and my daughter was in heaven. Definitely exceeded all our expectations :)
This house was located in a very beautiful area. Quiet, safe and loved the animals next door. Host was very quick to answer any questions. The house was well kept with plenty of extra amenities (coffee bar, toiletries, spices for cooking, popcorn). There were a few minor issues with a bit older home. Faint smell from bathroom and screws on cabinet door in kitchen were stripped. Nothing that would deter us from staying again. Thank you so much for a pleasant stay!
