Want a place to unwind, relax, enjoy nature and experience tranquility, serenity and peacefulness? Experience what our guests are repeatedly saying about their stay! Once you arrive you will not want to leave!

Awake in the mornings and be greeted by wild deer grazing in the fields; birds singing; and geese relaxing by the pond. Take a walk and enjoy picturesque views of the surrounding hills, sunrises, sunsets, pond, birds and other wildlife. Sit back and relax in a rocking chair or in a swing on one of the porches. There are also benches around the pond where you can watch the fish jump as well as the sun rays glittering on the water. Catch and release fishing is permitted in the pond. Wrap up your day sitting around the large fire pit that has plenty of seating for everyone.

Perfect Retreat

A friend and I needed a girls’ weekend away and this was the perfect place. Peaceful and quiet. The cabin had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch drinking coffee and watching the birds visiting the feeders. If we stayed longer, we would have made use of the fire pit one night.10/10 would recommend if you just need to get away for a bit. Will definitely stay again when back in the area.

Great country cabin

The cabin in the property are both beautiful and extremely well kept. The owners are wonderful and truly care about the experience of their guests. They live nearby on the property so they are close if you need anything. However, they made sure that the cabin was well stocked even with snacks!

Lovely Peaceful Cabin

This lovely cabin is located in such a beautiful spot. Rolling hills, woods, lake - it provided a space that I needed. I was able to get to Bardstown, Berheim Forrest, and the Jim Beam distillery while there. This home is SPOTLESSLY clean and the extra care and touches were wonderful. The hanging ferns, the potted mums, the hanging eye catchers and stained glass made this place feel so homey. I loved my stay there and will come back. Lori Jo and Ricky are excellent hosts and made everything so easy - I just had toneelax.ddefinitely come back.and

Relaxing getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay last week. we enjoyed watching the deer & turkeys and other wildlife (we saw a skunk and many squirrels & birds). I enjoyed catching and releasing serval good size bass. The property is just described or maybe even better. It was also a pleasure meeting the owners and sharing stories together.

Perfect getaway

This property is beautiful! Every inch of the home was tastefully decorated, well appointed, and made us feel like we were in our home. Perfect location for exploring all things bourbon and thoroughbred race horses. Lori Jo and Ricky were excellent hosts. We had a wonderful time exploring Kentucky and celebrating a 65th birthday. Perfect getaway!

A 10/10 - Gorgeous Surroundings & Welcoming Home

Sundance Acres was the perfect place to stay. I wish we could have stayed longer! It is such a secluded property with beautiful views at sunset. Sitting on the back porch and seeing all the beautiful birds fly up to the bird feeders was serene. We even saw a family of deer when we came back from dinner. The home was meticulous, so clean and well appointed. We also loved the ‘extras’ such as a few snacks and coffee pods. We have a boat at Taylorsville Lake, and it was only a 20-minute drive from the marina and such a pleasant place to retreat and call home for the night! I could not recommend this place more, and the hosts were so helpful with all questions! Will definitely be coming back for future trips. Thank you for sharing your home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin was beautiful, clean and wonderfully appointed with everything needed for our weekend stay. Lori Jo and Ricky have done a wonderful job with this cabin. They are the perfect hosts! The bonus is having a quiet, private place that is only 30 mins from every ‘attraction’ we went to. We WILL return!

The cabin is everything described in the listing. Very clean, inviting and well decorated. It was so peaceful sitting on the porch watching the wildlife and hearing the birds chirp while drinking your morning coffee. The owners were very nice and easy to work with. We would definitely recommend this cabin to friends and family. We were there exploring the Bourbon as a weekend getaway.

Like Home

This home was wonderful. Everything you could possibly need was provided down to tissues and snacks. There were lots of wildlife (birds especially) to look at, fish to catch in the pond and the beautiful surroundings. The home was decorated so beautifully. The layout was wonderful and spacious. We enjoyed the lights that came on at dusk at the pond and in the swing area at the edge of the woods. There was a fire pit with wood, chairs on both porches, swing on the back porch and swings in the yard. There were benches at the pond. We'd get up in the mornings, have coffee and breakfast on the back porch, then off to fish or sit and read or watch the birds. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. It was so very peaceful and quiet. Lori Jo and RIcky are the perfect hosts ensuring every possible amenity was provided. They are wonderful people to talk with. We would highly recommend staying in this home. It was convenient to Louisville and Bardstown. We came to attend the 150th Kentucky Derby. We had an amazing time.
