The house is very nice and Mark was very helpful in answering my questions before we arrived. However, it was unclear in the description and comments as to where the bathrooms are located. They are both upstairs. The "kitchenette" in the basement does not have any running water or dishes, so it would be difficult to use. There was also only seating for seven so I am glad we brought a card table to set up so we could sit together for meals or to play games. It would be nice to have a table in the basement as well. The fire pit was great and we did enjoy the pool. And the location was very peaceful. However, there was an odor of the septic system and we did not find access to even view the lake from the property. This was the first property that I rented where the owner required that either insurance be taken out or a 3000 deposit be made. That was annoying as Vrbo advertised the price as the total, but when we went to pay it was almost 200 more for the insurance and taxes. I would expect that most people would be careful and would pay if there were any damages so is insurance or a ridiculously large deposit necessary? The family time was great and overall it was a really good experience!

The house was nice and kept up. Built on the side of a hill so the road was almost above the house roof. Needed to use the 4x4 a couple of times to get on the road. Not much of a drive way but again not a major deal. Was informed the first day of our booking that the pool pressure gauge was broken the day before, the owner had ordered the part, but didn’t know if it would be fixed during our stay. The owner said that the pool was clear and ph level and chlorine were good. I have included a picture of the pool to let you be the judge. This fix should not have taken over 5 days had someone actually tried. I’m sure this part could have been found somewhere in the surrounding area had someone actually tried. The landscaping of the house looked like it hadn’t been touch since spring. Being on the side of a hill, didn’t leave much desire to have little ones playing outside.

Great place to spend the holidays with a large family!

The house was nicely decorated for Christmas including a Christmas tree. I had a large family arriving at different days during the week. The only thing that would have made it better would have been a bathroom in the downstairs area. I would definitely stay there again!

Family Wedding

Came for a Family Wedding. Stayed from a Friday to Sunday. Danville KY was about 30 Minutes away. It's the closest city, enjoyed the shopping area. Had a Bk, McDonald's, Cracker Barrel and a Pizza/Italian Buffet called Giovanni's very good. Has a Walmart and Ollie's. Good location to check out for shopping. House was Beautiful inside, nice setup upstairs and downstairs. Hopefully Host got toilet downstairs in full working condition so you can have full use of toilet & tub. All in all we had a nice Visit.

Nice Place

We enjoyed our stay and were pleased with the house overall. It was very clean and communication was top notch and timely. Our only issue was the cleanliness of the pool. The pool required us to thoroughly skim it (well over an hour) and we were unable to completely remove the large amount of decayed and decaying leaves. When questioning whether the pump was operational we were told that it was on a timer to run over night. While we believe that this was the case the cycle may need to run for a much longer time due to its location under a walnut tree. Overall we had a great stay.

Great setting in central location

Location central to Shaker Village, Danville and Lexington - we spent a day in each, along with several tours on the Bourbon Trail. The house provided a wonderful gathering place, with kitchen/living room, front porch and firepit. Enjoyed the rural location, with lots of walks in the neighborhood. The house has been nicely updated and has lots of nice decorating touches. Very comfortable for our group of 6 senior (or almost senior) women.

Not as expected

Below is the owners response to me asking if he would consider some type of refund for the issues we had at his place. The sewer line was stopped up for the down stairs bathroom. We wasted a day waiting on the plumber to come and fix the line. The wax ring was bad on the toilet after they fixed the line so then the smell from the septic tank was flooding into this bathroom so it was unusable. The toilet was grouted to the floor so the plumber couldn't replace the wax seal. We just kept the door shut. My full review was to long and they want allow a link to a full review with pictures of all the issues we had at this location. So here is the summary. No heat in the basement. There were two hot water heaters but we didn't have enough hot water for only 6 adults spacing out showers. The kitchen in the basement was unusable. The washing machine was standing full of smelly water as it was broken. Below is the response that I received from the owner. Owner: Let me suggest that next time you come to this area that you stay at the FULL SERVICE Marriott downtown Lexington! They have a concierge, full time staff, maintenance and cleaning! No it runs about $xxx a night so 3 rooms will set you back $xxxx a night. Oh yea they don't come in your rooms during your stay so don't count on maid service. This is a post Covid19 thing. This way next time you can have a nice Easter and get all you are looking for in a place to stay! Oh by the way my Easter wasn't good either bc I had to deal with an unrealistic guest that spend his whole time complaining about the house and yet he calls himself not a complainer. That is funny. Good luck to you. I have rental property and I don't like people complaining about minor issues. This was a major issue that someone knew about and should have not rented this property until it was fixed. The bathroom was locked when we arrived and windows upstairs were left open. I feel this was done to air the smell out of the house and hope that we just didn't need to use the bathroom downstairs. I wish I could put the full review here but this is all that will fit.
