Weekend Bourbon Tour

We had an amazing visit to Frankfort. The Carriage house was the perfect space for my husband and I. Everything was in tip top shape and the hosts have thought about every detail. The space was within walking distance of downtown Frankfort and several areas, and a quick drive to Buffalo Trace. We loved it and everything was perfect! We can’t wait to plan our next trip to stay again!

Great Location for Buffalo Trace Visits

We stayed three nights in the loft apartment and had a great time. The room was clean and comfortable for my wife and I. We were also close to Buffalo Trace and several other distilleries and there the downtown location was near some nice restaurants.

Clean, Practical and Well Located

We enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House. It was modern, clean, comfortable and located in the middle of everything in Frankfort. The Hosts communicated frequently and effectively answering all our questions. We recommend this space for a couple wanting a private space in the middle of the many attractions in the local area.

Peacefully Perfect!

We absolutely loved staying in The Carriage! It was the perfect size for the two of us and the location was great; we walked all around the Capitol and it's grounds, historic downtown Frankfort, and to Andy's Artisan Bread each morning for pastries and coffee. The Carriage reminded us of a Parisian apartment and the neighborhood was incredibly quiet. We loved being so close to the various distilleries. Definitely coming back again!

This is the perfect hygge cottage close to the bourbon trail. I lived in Denmark and understand Hygge. This is it! We stayed here for 2 nights as a home base to explore what Kentucky has to offer. Super easy check-in, and the instructions were clear even to find it in the dark. The bed and bedding are comfortable. The bathroom was just right. I’m short and my husband is tall. He would have had a hard time not hitting his head on the one side of the bed, so I took that side. There is a simple kitchen if you want to cook a dinner or breakfast. We enjoyed the welcome basket. If you are debating hotel room or other place, stay here!! We will stay here again.
