About this property

Quiet home on horse farm, halfway between Paducah & Wickliffe. Close to 60 & 286

Built originally in the 40s by my father-in-law for his new bride, this home raised my husband and his four siblings. The property has been owned by this family since the 1880s. It was a general farm, then a dedicated dairy farm until the early 1990s. When the dairy operation sold out, we bought the home place and some surrounding acreage. My daughter and her husband now live down near the barns and manage it as an equine facility. We live a few miles away. The Redhouse is between Highways 60 and 286, easily gotten to from highway 2532(County Line Rd), which connects the two state highways. The house has a Ring camera at the front door now. No cameras inside.

Quaint and quiet little house

The Red House is in a quiet area and was well stocked with any and everything you might need. The host even provided fresh eggs and muffins for breakfast!!! If we are ever back in the area we will stay here again.

One of my favorite places to stay.

This little house is my favorite place to stay near Paducah. The house is old, but is very well maintained and super clean. The owners obviously take very good care of this little place. The only caution is the stairs. You have to be able to climb stairs to get in, and one bed room and the laundry area are accessible by stairs. The property is close enough to Paducah, but is out in the country in a beautiful part of the county. The hosts make check in and check out really easy, and do a fantastic job managing this little place.

Absolutely Charming

This farmhouse has been meticulously and thoroughly remodeled and updated. It is spotlessly clean and decorated so well. It is quiet and pastoral. One morning during our dog walk, 15 deer ran through the front yard. We spent 4 lovely nights here.

A clean, quiet & peaceful time....

My husband and I had to make a quick trip up to KY to support a dear pastor, his wife, his church and a dear missionary sister. We were Blessed to find some days available at the Red House....as I had previously rented it for my missionary sister in CHRIST. (She helped coordinate volunteer teams to rebuild Mayfield after the tornado destroyed so many homes,...& we wanted to gift her with some respite time for herself.). The red house proved WONDERFUL for that first time (with our missionary sister in CHRIST...and it proved to be a really nice (clean and peaceful) place in which my dear husband and I could rest, in btw visits with our dear Mayfield friends. Communication was easy, quick and fun...bc the host is always attentive to your needs...while also giving you much privacy in a peaceful setting. THANK you!

The Redhouse on the farm

We absolutely loved staying here. The house was so warm and inviting. She left us fresh farm eggs, muffins, butter and snacks. We were there for 5 days and enjoyed just being there. It was delightful to hear the rooster crow in the morning and go outside with our little dog and look at the horses. The home was immaculate and we had everything we needed. Looking forward to staying there again.

Country Stay

My childhood friend and I met halfway to stay at the red farmhouse in the country! We both grew up on farms in iowa and we couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable, peaceful stay! We had everything we needed and enjoyed quiet walks looking at the farmland and watching the horses nearby. Would highly recommend. Host was very easy to have contact with and helped with directions which was appreciated.

The house was very clean and cozy and my husband really enjoyed staying here for the month! It was such a nice neighborhood. My children stayed a couple of nights and loved watching the beautiful horses. The owner was super friendly and prompt to respond to messages as well. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this house to friends and family!

Lovely property

Our group was in the area to visit family who live in Paducah. We only needed sleeping capacity, our meals and activities were away from the property, so we did not spend much time there. But it was lovely, quiet, peaceful, neat, clean. Worked well for our group of 3. Comfy beds!
