About this property

Renovated train station on thoroughbred horse farm.

Welcome to Hutchison Station, our renovated 1890’s train depot. Explore the horse farms, Bourbon trail and central KY while staying on our working thoroughbred horse farm right in the heart of the bluegrass.
Hutchison Station was part of the L&N railroad system between 1890 and 1950 with passenger and freight service between Lexington and Paris. It was the center of the local community and included a post office, 2 blacksmith shops, general store and cattle pens.
Hutchison station is divided into two ground floor apartments. The “Limerick” (named for Lisa’s event horse) has hardwood flooring throughout, 12’ ceilings and is furnished with local handcrafted and antique furniture. The Limerick has two en-suite bedrooms each with a king size bed. The living area includes counter seating for four plus table seating for four.
Hutchison station is approx half way between Lexington and Paris-
• 10 minutes to downtown Paris.
• 15 minutes to the Kentucky Horse Park
• 20 minute to downtown Lexington.
John-George and Sadie our miniature donkeys happily accept treats.

We have stayed here several times and always love it. Steve and Lisa always make sure everything is perfect. It's so relaxing to watch the mares and foals in the paddock across the driveway at this time of year.

We've stayed here many times and it's always lovely. Always love walking the grounds to see the horses and the donkeys. Bring lots of treats for the donkeys - they will yell at you if you don't give them the proper attention.

Our family of 4 really enjoyed our stay at Hutchinson Train Station! The views were beautiful and the place was so spacious and clean. When we arrived there were fresh flowers placed throughout house and homemade cookies on the counter (our kids loved these)!! The horses and donkeys were so much fun to watch! We will definitely be back!!!

First visit to Lexington and could not have picked better place to stay. The renovation of this building is very beautiful and the view out the windows of the horses! Bed very comfortable--shower good--all very comfortable. Yes, refrigerator is down the hall but not big deal. The donkeysloved the carrots we brought and short drives to ClaiborneFarms, Old Friends Farm, and Horse Park. Note: building is right on the road. All in all, great stay.

We couldn't of asked for a better place to stay. It was deep in horse country and the miniature donkeys and horses on the farm were just the cherry on top. Steve's communication was fast and informative from pre booking to our check out, even giving us restaurant recommendations when we asked. We were greeted with fresh baked cookies and a very clean house. The building has two 1st floor sections and ours had two kings size beds each with their own full bath, 12 foot ceilings, hardwood floors and large windows throughout and surprisingly well insulated walls. The building is an old train station and it is very close to the main road and I was expecting to hear a lot of road noise but to my surprise it hardly noticeable. There were people in the unit next to us for most of our stay but wouldn't of even known if we hadn't seen their car. It was updated and modern but yet had nods to the history all throughout. The beds and linens were very comfortable, the extra pillows and linen options were appreciated as was the various lighting options with bedside lamps, lamps on the end tables as well as a variety of overhead lighting options. The main full size fridge is in the laundry room with a large 'mini' fridge in the kitchen but this was not a problem for us. We enjoyed feeding the donkeys carrots, apples or peppermints and enjoyed walking down the gravel drive to see the all the horses and the foals. It is a beautiful place and we can't wait to come back.
Looking back toward the donkeys and horse barn
This is the sign on the edge of the building and we might not of driven past it the first time if we had known to look for it.
Looking from the hall into the main area. We loved the retractable shades for privacy at night but the ability to let the sunlight in during the day.
The kitchen had everything we needed, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, blender, coffee pot, oven, mini fridge, trash, dishes, paper towel, pots/pans, etc.
