About this house rental

Sparkling clean and sanitized. Large restored log home located just south of Lexington in historic Richmond, KY. Beautiful private property including picturesque ponds with docks and paddle boats where guest can fish, swim or float. There are horses, opens fields, wooded areas, abundant wildlife, picnic tables, fire pit, fishing ponds and out door grill. The 4200 sq ft home is furnished with treasures from around the world, art, pottery, crystal and some primitive antiques. A rustic style parlor offers a large stone fireplace and a perfectly restored and playable pump organ from the 1800s. The welcoming wrap-around porch was featured in the book Perfect Porches and features porch swings and big hammocks. You’ll have your own two acres, but still have the convenience of level paved roads in a quiet neighborhood just two miles from the nearest gas and groceries. The fabulous Red River Gorge is 45 minutes east into the rugged mountains of Kentucky. And 45 minutes North is Keenland, The Horse Park, Lexington and the Blue Grass airport. And The Ark Encounter and Creation Museum is less than 2 hr away in Northern KY. This rambling handcrafted work of art invites visitors to recall days past when time spent on a porch swing was enlightening, and a stroll around a pond is healing. There’s an enclosed hot tub off the upstairs bedroom that extends into pine trees with an outside entrance onto the back deck. It overlooks the pond and is totally private. The big windows provide beautiful views year-round, perfect sunsets and stars twinkling through the pine boughs at night. A king sized bed and private bath are on the first level in a very large master bedroom. Off the master bedroom is a separate bedroom with a standard and two twin beds. Up the stairs from there is a queen bed in a room that opens into the hot tub room, a large bathroom with garden tub and washer and dryer. This area also has a stone fireplace with gas logs. Down the hall on the second floor are two more bedrooms. One is large with a queen size bed and record played. The fifth bedroom has a queen size bed with a full view of the pond and private entrance onto the upper deck. There is a bathroom in this area, too. Also, on this second floor is a balcony room that overlooks the large floor-to-ceiling hand laid stone fireplace. This area has a large comfortable couch and is the perfect spot to escape to read a book. A unique spiraling staircase leads to the open kitchen on the first floor. The dining room off the kitchen is a one room log cabin with a handmade oak table and woven hickory bottom chairs that seat 12 comfortably.

From the listing it’s so nice, but in person it’s amazing! The host is so accommodating and responsive. Really love the place and will be back! We also have someone on crutches with us and she got around so well and we didn’t run into any issues. Such a beautiful property!

We had to gather from various parts of the country for a funeral in Richmond, Kentucky, and were in search of accommodation for our group. This log cabin on VRBO turned out to be the ideal choice for our party of 9. It provided the perfect balance of staying together while enjoying individual rooms, beds, and bathrooms. The cabin facilitated our needs perfectly, allowing us to share meals and engage in board games we brought along. The picturesque surroundings added to the charm, and we even had the delightful opportunity to feed apples to the horses. We unanimously agreed that if we ever find ourselves back in Richmond, this would be our go-to place without a doubt. Our experience was made even better by the fantastic host who was a pleasure to work with. A big thank you for hosting us and making our stay so memorable!

We stayed at the log cabin for our yearly family vacation! We had plenty to do at the house without even leaving! Fishing, pedal boating, ping pong, foosball, swinging on the many porch swings, hot tub, and feeding Flag the horse. It was a very relaxing week! It is also close to Red River Gorge area and many other activities within about an hour drive. Great communication from the owners and quick to make sure our stay was comfortable!
