About this property
Lodge style home on 140 acres. Remote but close to much! Hot Tub, Pets
This property is unique in that it is remote yet near so many places. The master bedroom is downstairs with a private bath, private sitting area with television, king size sleep number bed, and a private deck with a large outdoor hot tub. Four bedrooms are upstairs connected by a common den with huge vaulted ceiling and each bedroom has its own private vaulted ceiling. ( those cuelga are a recent upgrade) Each of those bedrooms has a very comfortable (1) king, (2)queens or (1)double bed. There is a 46 foot screened porch on the front with plenty of sitting room including rocking chairs and a porch swing! There is a large deck off the back dining room as well with a table, chairs and a gas grill. Everything you need to make a perfect getaway in Central KY. The open space and extra-wide interior doors make it easy for wheelchairs. We also have a portable ramp to use for the 2 steps up through the garage into the house if needed. The entire house is very open with extra tall and vaulted ceilings and lots of exposed wood. Spacious kitchen with all amenities you would want. As we are near Shaker Village we have decorated the house with Shaker-style furniture and primitive American decor. This is the perfect place to gather with family or friends and enjoy nature while being close to so much!! The fire pit outside is a guest favorite! After a waiver is signed we can arrange for use of the hot tub and for hiking. We can recommend a great place to fish as well! (our pond unfortunately has NO fish!) You are also invited to stroll up and down the scenic half mile paved driveway.
Minimum nights during winter season might be flexible.

Remote place to unwind
The property is as described and pictured. 20 minutes from the Nicholasville (closest town with a wide selection of restaurants and grocery) nestled in the countryside outside of Wilmore. Everything worked great and check in was a breeze.

Heaven on Earth
This was heaven on Earth!!!! The house is located right next to the sky’s on this hill that overlooks valleys on all sides! The utter silence and peaceful sounds of birds chirping was our audio! The house so absolutely PERFECT! More than we can image or use! Every need was met - kitchen- bathrooms- outdoor games- EVERYTHING! Every room was just as welcoming as the first! The views are nothing short of spectacular! We had a family gathering at the house and EVERYONE was in awe!! Just like I said- HEAVEN ON EARTH!!!! Quiet moments in prayer on that porches reset my soul in a busy world!!! Thank you for making this home open to the world!!! It was amazing!!!

Beautiful Kentucky Home
This is a beautiful, large home on a hill with acreage. We visited in March. The three-season room was refreshing on warmer days, and the land was enjoyable to walk with the dogs. The beds were very comfortable, and the home space was very inviting. Communicating with the owners was easy. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Amazing views!
We had such a relaxing trip at this lovely cabin! The views from the hilltop were gorgeous, and we thoroughly enjoyed gazing at the stars while relaxing in the hot tub. Also, this was one of the cleanest homes we have ever rented! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a secluded get-away that is still so close to everything in bourbon country.

Reunion/Retreat/Refresh
We had seven people and needed all five bedrooms. Our 89 year old matriarch stayed downstairs in the primary and we dubbed her large bathroom the “girls” bathroom. We had plenty of room around the dining table for dining and making Lego Christmas ornaments! The views are spectacular and walking down the hill to the tree line and back is a workout! Great kitchen will all imaginable appliances. We made all meals on site except a Holiday Lunch at Shakertown. The property is clean, but some of the finishes (bathroom tile, faucets) could use a refresh. It’s not a problem at all, but don’t expect it to be like an austere hotel property. We felt at home. We will definitely stay here again.

This is the second time that we have stayed at the Lodge, and we love everything about it! The views are stunning, it's close enough to everything, but far enough away that you can really enjoy watching the wildlife and nature. The Lodge is so clean, comfortable, and restful. We highly recommend it and hope to stay there again in the future!

Heavenly Retreat in the Country
Our group of 5 couples thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, well stocked, and very spacious for our large group. The vistas from the house were breathtaking. Information from the owner about the house and driving instruction were so helpful we never needed to contact for assistance. We would happily return in the future.

50th anniversary celebration
This property is stunning and expansive and just what we were looking for to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary. The house was much larger than the photos appear and we had plenty of room to spread out, prepare and then enjoy meals together. The Kroger card on the refrigerator was a nice touch too! There is a reason this property has a high rating. We felt like we were lucky to have stumble upon it and definitely want to make plans to return.

Peaceful and Remote
Traveled with a group of ladies on our yearly get together. The house was very remote and peaceful. Loved the screened in porch in the morning to watch the sunrise. The sunset and river bend was blocked by the trees this time of year, but still beautiful on the rear deck. The kitchen was stocked with many items. The beds were super comfortable. Large table for games was great. Was a little concerned with the creek crossing, however, we were assured that it had very little water. Thanks for sharing your home. We were blessed to stay there.

Visiting the Bluegrass for a wedding
We were five couples traveling from Maryland to attend the wedding in Lexington. The house was perfect! It gave us a chance to relax and reconnect. The home was very well appointed. Lisa thought of everything. The house was also sparkling clean.
We had plenty of space to hang out in the living room, upstairs sitting area, and on the wonderful screened in front porch, where we took in the sunrise with a cup of coffee.
The farm surrounding the home is beautiful and offers serenity that can be hard to come by with a rental home.
It was a magical stay. We are now considering renting the home again at some future point to bring together our friends again.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful home Lisa!
