Our family had a wonderful time staying in the cottage over the Thanksgiving weekend. Room for everyone! It was so comfortable and such a pretty setting across from the winery. We had everything we needed to make our holiday meal. Enjoyed the walks on the scenic road past the vineyard, river and barns.

This cute farm cottage is located amongst beautiful horse farms and across from a vineyard. Each of the three bedrooms had their own bathroom, which is hard to find. Kitchen is very clean and well stocked. I would certainly stay here again. In fact, I have stayed here twice.

This property was well-located for our tour of horse farms and distilleries in the Lexington/Frankfort area. It was the perfect size for our group of three couples, with each having a bedroom with private bath. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed, although we dined out most of the weekend - we tried some great restaurants in Midway. There are several outdoor gathering areas on the property. Bonus is a winery that is right across the street from the house!

My wife and I were recently in Kentucky for a little get away and this house was the perfect base for that adventure. Centrally located between Frankfort and Lexington it provided easy access to the Kentucky bourbon trail, Keeneland race track and the Ark Encounter. The farmhouse has a completely updated interior and the outdoor space was beautiful and private. We can’t wait to go back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay from start to finish. It was a perfect place for our group of six people to experience the Bourbon Trail, local wineries, and horse country! Thank you to our host Pamela, for providing such a clean, well equipped, and welcoming place to call home for the week! Picking up the keys at the Equus Run Vineyard across the street was so easy and a wonderful start to our week. A big thank you goes out to the owner, Cynthia, for taking time to talk with us about her vineyard and it’s history. We hope to return in the future!

What a perfect place for our Bourbon Trail Adventure; with many unexpected surprises. First off, the location of the winery was fantastic. It is a great place to wine taste, pick up picnic supplies or just relax on the beautiful grounds; and their dry rose is delightful. The structure itself may have been one of the most relaxing VRBOs I have EVER stayed at. Very comfortable, all bedroom suites were well appointed, the kitchen has everything you need for
cooking in (including the BBQ), but the best part is the property itself. It is lovingly maintained, full of wonderful character, loaded with wildlife and conducive to good conversations and making memories.
Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The house was quaint. We walked across the street to the vineyard and has some flights. Very convenient. The drive to the distilleries was not too long md the quaint downtown was not far away. We really enjoyed our stay there.

We were three adult couples visiting the area to run in the Pisgah Farm Half-“Mare”athon/10k. Nice to have three comparable rooms/bathrooms, all were pleased. Pleasantly surprised to see such a well-stocked kitchen too. Having the winery across the road and being near the charming town of Midway was a plus. We plan to book for next year’s run.

This is an amazing property and Pamela is a great host. Gave some great recommendations for places to eat. The property is located in a perfect spot to the different distilleries and a walk across the street to a winery. Will be back for sure and will recommend to everyone we know!

Wonderful! This was such a lovely place to stay. Very cozy. The owner checked in with USA few times to ake sure everything was ok. The whole house was so warm and comfortable. Great location to many of the Bourbon distilleries. There was a winery across the street..we scored. We’d sit outside and see the vineyards. Very well stocked home. We’d rent this place without a second thought. Four of us were in total agreement.

This was a quaint, comfortable little gem in bourbon country. Tuxedo was a great ambassador for our stay. We recommend this spot for a family get together.

We had just 3 days and 2 nights to enjoy this property and the surrounding area. We were in KY to visit some distilleries on the Bourbon Trail and this home was the perfect find! The home is adorable, very clean and welcoming. The kitchen is well appointed with plenty of appliances, dishes, etc. The bedrooms are cozy and comfortable. .
The location—well it’s amazing. So quiet and peaceful even though the interstate is nearby (which is super convenient).
Pamela was very attentive, checking on us and making sure we didn’t need anything.
Cannot wait to return to spend more time visiting Kentucky and this little gem of a home.

We had a great time at this property. It is perfectly located. Every place we wanted to go was easily accessible. From starting at the vineyard (to pickup keys) to finishing with a snow flurry this morning - it was perfect. We are already planning a return trip in the spring.

We had a wonderful stay at this adorable cottage. The house was well-equipped (especially the kitchen), well-situated between things we wanted to see in the area, and the perfect size for three adult couples (driving in from three directions, so with three vehicles). The weather was cooperative enough that, with coats, we enjoyed coffee on the front porch while watching the sunrise over the vineyard & cocktails on the back porch as the sun set over the rolling hills and board fences. We also really enjoyed our visit to the winery next door & the tasting - the fruit wines were especially delicious! We will definitely be bookmarking this property for any future visits to the area!

Our stay could not have been any better. The home was as described in the VRBO listing,. It was centrally located for all the places we were visiting and easy to get to. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area again. Thank you Pamela for wonderful accommodations.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this home. It was very comfortable and the three en-suite bedrooms were great to have. The little touches like the horseshoe handles in the kitchen just added to the overall ambiance. I will be telling my friends about this find!

Ideal for Bourbon Tour
The house was in the perfect location for touring all surrounding bourbon facilities. Centrally located with all of the horse farms too. Enjoyed being able to walk over to the Winery and splash along the small creek running through it.

We chose this property to use as a hub for a short bourbon trail experience. It was perfectly located for more disterlies than i could squeeze into one week. A quick drive in any direction put us exactly where we wanted to be. The home was easy to locate and get us on the road when leaving for the day. The house was decorated perfectly for the area. The entire stay was to sum it up into one word: COMFORTABLE. I have already started my next trip back and will once again make my plans start with Saddlestone cottage.

Being from OH and Maryland, this was our first trip to the beautiful country side of Kentucky. We could not have asked for a better place to stay as the farmhouse was both spacious and well renovated. Looking out at the Equus Run Vineyard every morning just started the day right. Our host Pam and the vineyard owner Cynthia we extremely friendly, kindhearted and professional. Every tour we took, from New Riff to Woodford, Castle & Key to Buffalo Trace all were informative and exciting. Being just 20 minutes from Lexington and Frankfort, I believe this House gave us the perfect opportunity to see Kentucky for how it really is. We will 100% be staying again and recommending this house to all of our family and friends. Excellent all around stay!

Wonderful property
We had a great time. The home was close to the horse farms, to Lexington as well as Midway. Within 15 minutes we could be at multiple destinations. We found the set up of the house to be perfect for us. One couple upstairs and one down. We walked across the street to Equus Run Vineyards and had a great time tasting.
I wish we could have stayed much longer.
I would rate 10 stars I'd possible.
