Wonderful space!

Clean. Melissa the property manager was AWESOME. Previous tenants had made a huge mess which they worked really hard to take care of before our checkin. Lots of towels, including for the hot tub. The view from the balcony was amazing and peaceful. An abundance of kitchen utensils, toaster oven and microwave. Everything was amazing. I would stay there again without a second thought, and we plan to do just that.

Budget Conscious Place

Great location and a budget conscious place. Upon checking in the third story rental was musty smelling and both bedside lamps weren’t in working order. One was missing a lightbulb and the other was burned out. The TV claimed to have Spectrum/cable, but that was incorrect. The small TV only had a Roku and was useless unless someone has streaming services. Be careful walking on the stairs as multiple wooden steps were broken and dangerous.

Weekend Away

While the cabin was comfortable, it fell a little short in several respects. The cabin advertised a jetted tub but the tub was not functioning. We didn’t find out until we got to the property. This was one of the reasons we originally booked the property. We literally had this as one of our search results. The view was beautiful but again it fell short as signs were posted by the River saying Do Not Enter. It was inaccessible with a wobbly deck leading down to the water. The host was very pleasant and called prior to our visit. Just wish we had known about the limitations prior to booking. We did ask for a price adjustment based on the non-functioning tub since that was very important to us but didn’t receive any refunds.

Quiet location on river

Location is very quiet and beautiful. However property is dated and in need of repairs. AC/Heat had musty odor. Very tiny kitchen but ok if you plan to eat out. Host is very nice.

Nice Room and Beautiful View

This efficiency has a great private back deck that looks out over the Kentucky River. It's away from the business of the city and a short drive to Lexington and some good hikes.
