Bardstown Bourbon Experience

The Huston House was perfect for our visit to Bardstown. Close to downtown shops and restaurants. The host, Kim, was very helpful and supplied all the amenities needed. The house was filled with books (several authored by our host) and games. The outdoor patio was perfect for after dinner beverages. We would highly recommend the Huston House.

Downtown is the place!

We absolutely loved the location of Huston house! We walked all over town, and enjoyed the shopping and food there, when we weren’t off visiting distilleries. Kim was great about communicating, and handled a small issue that we had with ants very promptly. The indoor and outdoor space here are amazing, and perfect for two couples. Would most definitely stay again!
