Everything you need.

Beautiful ‘cottage’ in a great location. Comfort inside and out, from bath towels to the bed to the outside patio AND If you happen to have forgotten something there is a good chance Kim or Greg have it available for you. The little touches, including dove chocolates were much appreciated. You can easily walk to town from this location. We would definitely stay here again.

Visit

We were very impressed with the cottage. Everything was available for our needs and comfort. We lived in Lexington (Welcome area) for 35 years, so after staying in Bear Cottage we hope it will be available in the future when we visit back in Lexington.

Family visit

Bear Cottage was ideally located in a beautiful neighborhood close to shops, restaurants and nearby towns. Thoroughly enjoyed the front porch for coffee in the morning and afternoon reading as the sunset enjoying a glass of wine. Perfect hosts, excellent accommodations and peaceful environment. Will definitely return.

Perfect Getaway

This is the cleanest, best organized rental on VRBO. Their information binder includes everything you need to know about the house and the area. It's a short walk to downtown and the neighborhood is beautiful. Plenty of good restaurants and interesting shops to explore. The living area is comfortable and everything we could want was provided. Kim and Greg are gracious hosts. We would gladly stay again. Thanks for a great anniversary getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Kim & Greg

Host profile image
Hello, my name is Greg. My wife Kim and I moved to the Historic district here in Lexington in 2018. Our home is approximately 100 years old with the Bear Cottage being built-in 2005. We love to work with guests and ensure that every guest has a wonderful stay. We moved here from southern Davidson county and love living in this community. I hope every guest enjoys Uptown Lexington as much as we do on a daily basis.

Why they chose this property

The beauty of the Bear cottage is a few things. You have your own privet entrance to a detached building from the main house that sits in a quiet neighborhood, yet you're a two-block walk to uptown Lexington. We have privet off-street parking and very convenient to the highways.
