Perfect place to stay!

We loved our stay at Nonna's place! This pole barn is so spacious and clean and very tastefully decorated! It is also located on a beatiful property overlooking the fields. Our daughter loved visiting the cows, they were so cute and friendly. I would highly recommend! We come to Kentucky for LS Fest almost every year and this has been our favorite place to stay by far!

Nonna's place is so perfect!

Great spot to stay and explore the Bowling Green area. It's a little noisy because it's right by the road, but turn on the fan or something and it's fine. The cows are very friendly and don't make any noise. Everything was spotlessly clean.

Best stay outside Bowling Green

This rental was amazing. Clean, roomy and best of all, not in town yet close enough if you needed to go into Bowling Green. Felt like home. We will definitely choose this rental again when we come back.
