The home was wonderful, clean, fully stocked and very comfortable. Has three bedrooms, perfect for our party of two couples and two sisters, there’s a full bathroom for each room, plus a bonus bathroom. This is a perfect location to the bourbon trail! Not well known Whiskey Thieves was a treat. Downtown Frankfort was also very inviting and the Brown Barrel restaurant was delicious. Appreciated them working together with us to rebook our original booking in January due to the snowstorm. They went above and beyond to make this a great experience. Thank you!
