**Prime Location:** We are located in the epicenter of the Bourbon Trail. Two minutes from major highways and historic Bardstown Road, which connects you to Downtown Louisville, Lexington, and the bourbon capital of the world, Bardstown, KY. True walking distance (5 minutes walk or less) to at least 8 restaurants, and a 15 minute drive or less to any luxury dining experience in Louisville. Kroger grocery and pharmacy is a 2 minute drive. Uber/Lyft and DoorDash are readily available.

Plus, a 70-inch 4K TV in the living room and 42-inch 4K TVs in the bedrooms ensure top-notch viewing experiences. Board games, card games, dominos, and a selection of books provide entertainment for the whole family.

**Outdoor Oasis:** Relax on the outdoor patio with high-end furniture and ambient lighting, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

**Luxurious Comfort:** Indulge in a restful night's sleep on high-end Helix and Nova Form mattresses, including a king bed, two queen beds, and three full beds. We spared no expense on the sleep experience! The sleeper sofa is ACTUALLY comfortable, (this ain’t your grandma’s sofa bed) featuring a 3-inch Tempurpedic-style memory foam pad. With blackout curtains in the living room, you can essentially transform the area into a 4th bedroom at night! The property has two full bathrooms. The primary en-suite bathroom has a walk-in glass shower with luxury linear drain. The shower fan doubles as a speaker which guests can connect to with their mobile device via Bluetooth. Guests can listen to their favorite tunes while getting ready for a day on the Bourbon Trail! The second bathroom contains a double vanity and shower/tub combination for the little one’s who need a bathtub option.

**Space Maximization:** Custom-built Murphy beds can retract into the wall to maximize space during the day.

**Convenient Features:** Private off-street parking for up to three vehicles, luxury travel bath kits, washer/dryer with provided essentials, and high-speed internet (500+ mbps) ensure an efficient stay for both business and leisure travelers.

**Artful Decor:** Admire the decor crafted by local artists, ask us for a referral so you can bring a piece of your vacation home with you! If you’d like to see more selections from a particular artist or vendor we can make that connection!

**Family-Friendly:** As parents of little one’s ourselves, we've thought of everything for families, including a pack 'n play, high chair, baby bath seat (yes we have a bathtub!), outlet covers, and children's dinnerware.

**The garage on the property is currently utilized as office space and will be unavailable for guest use. Our team members share the parking lot and may be on site utilizing the garage during your stay, this area is separated from the house and outdoor space by a yard length, 6 foot privacy fence.

Family Stay

This house is absolutely beautiful and so well stocked. If you are looking for a house that feels like you are on the bourbon trail this is the house for you. Plus it was so clean and had everything we need including a crock pot to cook dinner. The property managers communicate very well and were very kind.

One of the BEST we’ve ever stayed at!!

The property was impeccable!! Everything you need is already there, the cleanliness was top notch and communication was excellent. Had a slight hiccup with the VRBO reservation and the host jumped right in and solved the problem to complete satisfaction. Will only look to book this place next time in the area. Many thanks to the host for a beautiful stay and gracious service!! Five stars is not enough rating, this place deserves ten!!

Absolutely Perfect!

The location was great! Within walking distance to restaurants and a great park. Had a beautiful, spacious fenced in back yard - perfect for my 4 year old! House provided a bunch of board games and outdoor games. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen had EVERYTHING! Owner was super responsive and helpful!

Kentucky Derby

My husband and I plus two other couples stayed here for the Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby. The house is very updated and very comfortable and had plenty of room for 6 of us. The house was in walking distance to many restaurants. We had such an amazing trip will be returning to this location for future Derby stays.

Amazing All Around (home, location, service)

We just completed a 4 night stay at Bourbon Trail Central and had an amazing trip. Everything was just right - in fact beyond our expectations. The house felt like a home, beds were comfortable and the kitchen was the best stocked annd organized we’ve ever experienced in a rental. Outside deck was a perfect way to unwind after a busy day on the trail (for a drink, grill for dinner and plenty of comfortable seating)! Location is central - literally the perfect spot to get downtown Louisville, south to Bardstown and East to Frankfort and Lexington - location does matter! And last but certainly not least was the service Brandon provided (before and during our stay) - super helpful, professional, prompt, and really wanted us to enjoy our first time in KY. Not only would I recommend Bourbon Trail Central, I would recommend working with Brandon on whatever your needs may be (he has several homes). We will be back soon!
