Perfect Location

Property exactly as described. Everything you could possibly need is provided. It is the perfect location for downtown access. Not too far to walk yet far enough off the main road for quiet evenings. We definitely recommend and we will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Margaret Sue Masters

Hello, I am Margaret Sue Masters and I along with my husband, Michael, known as "The Colonel" have revived and restored 4 private cottages for vacation rentals in downtown Historic Bardstown. Millstone cottage was the 2nd property we restored.
In 2004 we purchased the Chapeze House, circa 1787, downtown off the court square. In 2010 we converted the property into the Kentucky Bourbon House, a Bourtque Hotel with charming private suites. We alos conduct in the Bourbon Bar 2 Bourbon Classes; Bourbon University and Bourbon Mixology twice daily Mon-Sat. We also host intimate wedding ceremonies and elopement packages in the elegant parlor or the formal garden that makes up the back yard.
Come and experience our "Hospitality Kentucky Style"......

Why they chose this property

My husband and I bought this cottage in 2000 and spent 6 months restoring it. In the early 1900's this cottage was next door to a grist mill. There are 3 grist millstones still located on the property, hence the name "Millstone Cottage".
Millstone Cottage sits on Broadway, one of the most charming streets in Historic Bardstown. The tree lined street has some of the best examples of architecture in the town. There is a barn in the back of the property and it had horses that were boarded there in the 1950's.

What makes this property unique

Millstone Cottage has all the advantages of being located 2 blocks from downtown without all of the street and traffic noise that comes with being downtown. Millstone Cottage is on Broadway which is a very quiet residential street. Sip our Bourbon Coffee on the front porch as you watch the people of this wonderful town walk by. Relax in the evening with your favortie cocktail on the back patio under the twinkle lights
