About this property
Captain's Annex; close to Bourbon Trail and Churchill Downs, far from ordinary!
Enjoy staying in a private bedroom on a wooded hillside overlooking trees and a pond just 18 minutes from Churchill Downs. Private entrance to your bedroom and private bath. Experience a taste of Kentucky with a hot gourmet breakfast on weekends served on the wide front porch or eat in the log living room decorated with antiques and a massive fireplace. Continental breakfast is served on weekdays. Take a quiet break after a hectic day at the track with a walk along the creek. Take in the beautiful flower garden throughout the changing seasons. Finish a perfect day with homemade bourbon balls.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Tammy Donelson
We love hosting people from all over the world in our Captain's Cabin Bed & Breakfast. We opened Captain's Annex in our home for Derby and special events. My husband, Jan, is a licensed architect specializing in log and timberframe homes so when we found this property featuring TWO log cabin homes, we had to live here. I, Tammy, am a marketing consultant for healthcare companies and home sharing host. I love to cook and spoil my guests with gourmet breakfasts and lots of goodies. We are history buffs, especially the Lewis & Clark period. The cabins are full of artifacts and historic replicas from Jan's 2004-2006 bicentennial trip to the Pacific Ocean in a keelboat to commemorate the Lewis & Clark journey of 1804-1806.
Why they chose this property
This property has a peace and tranquility that is hard to find. Wildlife abounds. The front porch provides a great view of the lake. The creek is just a few steps away where you can go wading or explore the waterfall.
What makes this property unique
Everybody loves our breakfasts (available on weekends)! So will you! Walking around the property to see the creek, lake and wildlife like deer, fox, ducks, geese, herons and turtles is worth the visit. The window seat offers a great place to read or rest.
