Favorite spot on Bourbon Trail

This was our second stay at this property and we’re already planning our next. Spacious home. Beautiful property. Feels like home. Have no plans to stay anywhere else on our next leg of the KY Bourbon Trail. Also, best host ever!

Incredible location and experience

This was our second time staying at KenTex Farms. The house is spacious and nicely decorated. The star of the experience is the outside space, featuring acres of land and feeders that attract deer, turkeys and others. The location is convenient to visit distilleries. Most of the distilleries near Lexington and Frankfort are within 30 minutes. Those down near Bardstown and in Louisville are closer to 45 minutes, but if you plan visits geographically you can see everything in one area each day. We will be back for a third time!

Amazing property, fits large groups

We loved the property. Emmet was a gracious host, giving us details about the property and check in process. The property had 5 bedrooms and 4 baths, which was great for a guys trip on the Bourbon Trail. We saw lots of wildlife while drinking morning coffee, plenty of deer and some raccoons. Had a great time on the back porch enjoying bourbon and relaxing with an amazing view.

Excellent location for Bourbon Tasting

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely peaceful home! Garlaine and Emmet were extremely helpful from the check in and throughout the entire stay. The rolling hill Kentucky views were breathtaking, from the beginning of the day, sunrises to sunset. Blessed with daily deer visits throughout the day, and some surprise Turkey sightings. The home was very comfy with plenty of room for 5 couples, played games (included) in the evening, with an occasional gathering around the outdoor fire pit. A great get away that worked perfect for the Bourbon Trail, accessible to Frankfort, Lexington, Bardstown and Louisville. Thank you so much for offering your home as a vacation rental! It provided instant vacation for us. We can’t wait to come back!

Fabulous home base for Bourbon Trail trip

3 couples, 6 adults, stayed at this house. We had a wonderful trip. The owners are very nice, responsive, and helpful. We would have loved to meet them but we were gone from early morning to evening for our distillery tours and dinners so it didn’t work out. The house was as described with ample room for all 3 couples to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked with coffee maker, fridge and supplies. We brought our own paper plates and napkins. The porches are lovely offering beautiful views of Themis rise and sunset. We enjoyed morning coffee on the porch watching the deer at the feeder and enjoyed the porch at night as well. Wood was available for the fire pit where the guys built a fire one night. The location worked perfectly. We were very close to Lawrenceburg for supply runs or take out one evening. Bardstown was nearby which was perfect for visits to Evergreen Liquor, distilleries, and restaurants. We visited a lot of distilleries in different areas and the drives were lovely and never seemed overly long. We all enjoyed our stay and would be happy to stay at this house for our next visit to Kentucky.

The very definition of respite

What a peaceful bucolic setting. The expansive porch overlooks a rolling field where deer and turkey are in abundance. Interior spaces are well appointed with plenty of room. The kitchen has every thing you and they have two kitchens. Best of all, it is in the middle of Kentucky Bourbon Country and innumerable thoroughbred farms. Respite is its name.

Five Guys and a Jackwagon

The farmhouse was exactly as described in the listing. The property was secluded and great for bondfires, which we did on 3 of our 5 nights. The location was good, we covered alot of ground on our stay visiting 8 distilleries and both Keeneland Race Course for closing day of the spring meet and Churchill Downs for opening night of Derby week. Thanks to Emmitt and Garlaine for sharing the KenTex ranch with us! Dave

This location was perfect - centrally located, beautiful acreage for walks and strolls, large spacious home, comfortable, and clean. Lots of deer and turkey; ie, as advertised. Most important Emmett and Garlaine, owners, were excellent to communicate with before, after, and during our stay …… great hosts. We are already talking about our next reunion being here.

Outstanding girls weekend!

We had a great time at this property. Four girls get together annually, and this home worked well for us. Plenty of room to spread out. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen was spacious and well-outfitted. It allowed us to cook meals with ease. Great area for binge-watching British bake-off and lots of seating areas for playing board games. Watching the wildlife was awesome every morning and evening. We would stay here again!

Perfect location to Bourbon Trail

Group of 10 adults (ages 39-60) down to celebrate my hubby's birthday. This house has it all. So much space and anything you could want. The beds are comfy! We did bourbon tours during the days and spent the evenings enjoying the property. It's really lovely and close to groceries, restaurants, bourbon distilleries but secluded. Emmett was super helpful host. He called the day before to make sure we knew how to get in. Only thing that was even slightly annoying was messaging Evolve through VRBO. Took months for a response. Call them instead. Not something the hosts can control.

Spent 4 days here and loved the house! Spent mornings on the spacious back porch drinking coffee watching 10 to 15 deer & turkey feeding 100 feet from us only to repeat at dusk with a little Kentucky Bourbon. 200+ acres of beautiful farmland to explore. The house had everything one would need, fully furnished and comfy! We will definitely return next year.

Wonderful retreat in horse country

Our group of friends and family met at Emmett's house for the Kentucky Derby, and absolutely loved our stay. The houe is nicely tucked away from the action, with a huge back pasture to enjoy from the rocking chairs on the porch. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet evenings around the firepit! The inside of the house had a well stocked kitchen and plenty of large beds for everyone to sleep comfortably. We highly recommend it to any large groups looking to enjoy togetherness on the porch/common areas, but maintain plenty of privacy of seperate bedrooms and large beds.

High school reunion

We met two other couples, the “girls” being best friends from high school. This was our first adventure since pre-COVID and it did not disappoint. The farm house provided a good location for exploring the Bourbon Trail. Emmett was a delightful host. He had several good stories and called on our first day there to make sure everything was okay. The finished downstairs was a bit cool for our southern friends but we are from Pittsburgh and it was fine for us. The farm was perfect for sunrises and sunsets. We thoroughly enjoyed our week on this property.
