About this property

Quiet home on horse farm, halfway between Paducah & Wickliffe. Close to 60 & 286

Built originally in the 40s by my father-in-law for his new bride, this home raised my husband and his four siblings. The property has been owned by this family since the 1880s. It was a general farm, then a dedicated dairy farm until the early 1990s. When the dairy operation sold out, we bought the home place and some surrounding acreage. My daughter and her husband now live down near the barns and manage it as an equine facility. We live a few miles away. The Redhouse is between Highways 60 and 286, easily accessible from highway 2532 (County Line Rd), which connects the two state highways. The house has a Ring camera at the front door and the side door. No cameras inside.

Everything was so easy and just perfect. Breakfast and coffee/tea/juice were a great additional touch which we appreciated fully. Comfy bed and furnishings, too. It's so quiet out in this lovely country house, though not far from town either--just perfect!

This has been one of the best bed and breakfast places I have stayed. The hostess was kind and helpful. There were fresh eggs on the refrigerator and English Muffins in the freezer when we arrived. The fridge had some basics. The dishes and pots and pans were there for basic cooking. There were spices and olive oil spray available. It is a rural location. Wonderful for a peaceful and quiet get away. If you want to ve in the bustle of a city, this is not your place. If you want to wake up to the singing of the birds and beauty of trees and grass, this is a wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed a country stroll down the lane each evening and were greated by the few neighbors as we walked by. It was a wonderful respit from the rush of everyday life.

About the host

Hosted by Jayna Gholson

Host profile image
Originally from Pittsburgh, PA, I have been in Ballard County since 1979. I’ve been horse crazy my entire life. Now retired from running the computer lab at the elementary school for 25 years, i have pursued some carpentry skills in addition to being a gramma. Still horse crazy, although riding has been on hold for various reasons.

Why they chose this property

A quiet (unless farm equipment is moving!) rural neighborhood, the Redhouse is a serene break from busy town life.

What makes this property unique

My daughter’s horses can be seen on several sides of the house, along with glimpses of wildlife as well. The road is good for daily walks.
