We stayed here while attending a horse show at the Kentucky Horse Park, and it was a great place. Quick & easy drive to the horse park, and there were several restaurants within walking distance. We were able to park right in front of the house for our whole stay. The house was well stocked and we appreciated the washer and dryer. Thanks for a lovely stay!
We enjoyed our stay over Easter weekend. While the street itself is modest, the property stands out as the nicest on the block and made for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The home was very clean - many features felt almost brand new (bathrooms are beautiful) and spacious, and it’s conveniently located at the end of the street with ample parking and is an easy walk to downtown Lexington. The yard is smaller than we expected, but it wasn’t an issue—we still had plenty of space for an Easter egg hunt both inside and outside the home.
Very cute and charming place. The perfect spot to stay to visit our son at UK and make it feel a little more like home. The location was close to everything. Had it not been so dang cold we could have walked.
This home is on a one way street in the middle of a historic neighborhood! The street itself, is a street of cottages and working class folks! Everything was quiet and safe! A walk to Rupp and other downtown destinations are within a 10 minute walk! The home was so roomy and well appointed! I could have used a few more dish towels and designated dish wash cloths. I absolutely thought the back porch was really cool, however, there was a trashcan full to the top of stagnant water with a couple of bottles floating in it that needs attention because it’s mosquito season it took away the backyard ambience.! This house well worth a rental and a great place to say in a really convenient place in Lexington and the host is very quick to answer. Any questions! I really do get this a five out of five.
We loved the house. Make sure you read the description about the location. We walked to dinner the first night and found it easy to get to the distilleries on our list.

So glad you enjoyed our house & its central location, Laura! Hope to host you again soon!
The house is the perfect place to refresh ourselves and lay our heads after a full day of touring the local distilleries. Clean and stocked with the basic supplies any traveler would appreciate.
We came to Lexington to do a part of the Bourbon Trail. Our location was within walking distance to downtown area with many good restaurants and amenities. The house was exactly what we were looking for. Spacious for the four of us with full amenities for our use! The host replied to our inquiries quickly and the cleaning staff did a meticulously job of preparing the house for our stay! We definitely would come back to stay again!!Highly recommend
Came here to celebrate my sister getting married. Property was clean and super cute! Communication was amazing and Shevawn was very nice. No issues or complaints whatsoever!

About the host
Hosted by Shevawn Akers
I'm a busy mom, realtor & house beautifier. My husband & I are both from Ky and have lived in Lexington most of our lives. We love to share all the great things Lexington has to offer & love traveling the world ourselves. We are so happy you're staying with us & hope to provide you the BEST experience in our hometown!
Why they chose this property
I love modern design and found a vacant lot downtown, in great proximity to Lexington attractions. I hired an architect who brought my vision to life on paper, then hired a builder who completed the build in August 2022. I love beautifying my city with beautiful homes that feature modern design & colorful decor!
What makes this property unique
The clerestory windows & large front window allow so much natural light into the space. I love the leathered granite island, the gorgeous teal green tile, the stunning black & white star-patterned tile, the king bed in the primary bedroom & all of the luxurious bedding - so soft & heavenly.
