The house was amazing. So much character, history and charm. The owners were very responsive and communication was fast and easy. I would definitely come back in the future.
We wanted to stay central to Louisville and Bourbon Trail. It was our first time to Kentucky and we were in for a treat. We ate at some great places, GoodWood, Limewater, and Bardstown .Frankfort was just recovering from a serious flooding but they were at full operation.
There was a group of us that stayed here to golf and visit distillery's for my 40th birthday. The house is a really neat old house with lots of space to hang out. The restaurant/bar next door has good food and a huge bourbon selection. There are restaurants, coffee shops, and bars all within walking distance. My only heads up is that one of of the single beds is more of a day bed/couch then an actual bed. You don't have a designated parking spot, but we had no problem finding places to park nearby.
Super easy check-in/check-out process. Property manager was on top of everything for our stay. The house is beautifully remodeled and very comfortable. We will definitely be coming back!
Beautiful historical house within walking distance of many restaurants and bars. Very large inside with tons of interesting decorations. Remodeled very nicely. Great visit.
This house was the perfect cherry on top of our great bourbon weekend. Location was great and the house itself kept us in a bourbon state of mind with its beautiful history and decor. Would definitely come back again when we do more of the trail.

Bourbon, trail vacation
We enjoyed this wonderful house and perfect location for our needs. Thank you! Would highly recommend.
We had a great time at the property. We spent the whole day going to different tastings and spent the late afternoon enjoying the home. Great experience with Heath!
The property was great. Large enough and nicely decorated and supplied. Definitely felt that this came with more things than the average rental. Convenient location, street parking was not an issue. I would do it again.
The pictures do not do it justice. I would stay here again. Highly recommend. The only thing I would pass along, is that parking ( loading and unloading the car) could be an issue. There is no parking except on the street. But, the ease of walking next door for dinner made up for it.
From the moment we walked in we were amazed at this historical home. It's in excellent and updated condition but still keeps the "rizz" that you want with these older homes. Three couples enjoyed the house for my husband's birthday bourbon trail weekend. The hosts were extremely accommodating. They even supplied coffee beans that made a remarkable cup of coffee! It was everything and more and we can't wait to go back. We even went to the Castle & Key Distillery who owns and operates this VRBO. We were 100% impressed with the Castle and Cocktails bourbon tasting experience and highly recommend stopping by. Thank you for a awesome weekend.
This property is fantastic! We had 7 friends get together for a long weekend to visit nearby distilleries. The house has 3 bedrooms upstairs (enough for 7 people), but I wanted to make sure that when everybody was awake, that they had room to spread out and enjoy. The house extends room by room from the living room by the street all the way out to the dining room overlooking the Kentucky River. Specifically, 5 rooms on the ground floor where everybody could either gather, or find a room just to relax and enjoy the ambiance. Every room was elegantly appointed and provided a unique atmosphere. The location was also key right next to great restaurants and shops.
We were 2 couples using The Stone House as our home base while meeting up with another couple for bourbon tours. This is an historic home that has been beautifully updated. If you like new, modern homes, this might not be the place for you. If you love old homes where the floors might not be completely level, walls were never plumb, and character oozes from every nook and cranny, you may love this place as much as we did. It is beautifully and stylishly appointed with loads of extra amenities to enhance your stay. There were several separate sitting areas for congregating and 3 dining areas as well as several levels of outdoor space, overlooking the Kentucky River. We loved it and would return again. Thank you!
