The home is pet-friendly, making it easy to include your four-legged companion on riverside strolls or hikes at nearby Clifty Falls. Thorough cleaning protocols between guests ensure a spotless and sparkling stay.

Inside, historic charm meets modern comfort with exposed brick, thoughtful décor, and inviting spaces to relax. The well-equipped kitchen includes pantry basics and everything you need for easy meals at home.

Lovely Family Weekend

Loved staying here! We brought 2 teenage girls who were easily entertained being close to Main St and shopping. The game room was great, and we all loved the hot tub. The home was so clean and organized. The house is quaint and cozy. We will definitely be back!

Friends

The location was perfect for getting to a wedding venue in Milton KY. The upstairs bedrooms were nice sizes. The bathrooms were small- low toilets without grab bars. Nice sized kitchen. The listing stated 3 bedrooms,but the bunk beds are in more of a pass through- no doors. The steps to front door and upstairs were steeper than expected. Very clean townhouse.

It was OK

Its OK for an Old house. Very cute and detailed, however, if there are any one w any handicaps, this is NOT for you. We had to wash every dish by hand and the entire place could use a general cleaning
