About this property

Wake Up on a Real Ranch - The Lazy Ridge - Elizabethtown KY

Escape to The Lazy Ridge at Lazy 4T Ranch — a beautifully appointed guest house nestled on a real working horse and cattle ranch in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. Whether you're here to unwind, reconnect with nature, or simply slow down, this is the kind of place that stays with you.
Wake up to a breathtaking sunrise over rolling Kentucky hills, sip your morning coffee while horses graze in the pasture, and spend your days exactly as you please — strolling the trails, fishing the pond stocked with bass and catfish, or soaking in the quiet that only a working ranch can offer.

For a more immersive experience, book a guided trail ride on our stunning trails ($175/person), or ask about our Ranch Life Experience — a hands-on half-day where you'll saddle up and work real cattle alongside Tracy. Farm tours are available through our ranch hand Tate, who knows every horse on the property by name and loves sharing this life with guests. Learn more and plan your stay at lazy4tranch.com.

We all really enjoyed our stay here. Beds were comfy and I personally like being out of town instead of in the middle of it. Michelle was great about getting back with us if we had any questions or concerns. Overall really enjoyed our stay here.

The place is very clean. Main issue was how muddy it is in the drive and around the house. Wish they would have more rock or something.
