The house was beautifully remodeled with expensive finishes. The large primary suite was extraordinary! Everything that we needed was provided. The weather was warm enough to sit on the patio. The location is great! We could walk to dinner in downtown Bardsgown each night. The owner was responsive and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

This house was perfect for two couples. We had a wonderful stay at HayJac. The house was beautifully decorated and well equipped. There were several areas for us to gather. We especially enjoyed the back patio where we could enjoy live music from the restaurant next door. We visited Maker’s Mark and Mammoth Cave. We highly recommend HayJac for anyone staying in Bardstown.

We spent four wonderful days in Bardstown. The house was absolutely beautiful and Jim and Gina thought of everything! The location was great, we walked to the bakery every morning, and to dinner and shops in the evening. We were able to visit 10 different distilleries, most within 30 minutes of the house. I cannot say enough about this property, it was absolutely perfect. We are looking forward to coming back next year!

This was my first time staying in a VRBO. It was perfect. The home was beautiful inside and outside. We especially enjoyed sitting on the outdoor covered patio. The location was also great. Walkable to many areas of Bardstown. We also visited many distilleries nearby but drove there. If I ever visit again, I will stay here.

We were absolutely thrilled with our stay here. The place was super nice. They thought of everything for their guest. I would definitely book this place again if I come back to the area. It’s convenient to the restaurants and bars in town. It’s next to a bakery which was delightful!

HayJac house is the place to stay while in Bardstown. This home will not disappoint you. There is more than enough space and essentials for two couples at the home. Jim and Gina have made sure their guests are comfortable by stocking the home with extra bath towels, toiletries, and kitchen essentials. They even thought of little things like small throw blankets for the cool mornings or evenings, extra wine and bourbon glasses and a supply of coffee. They were quick to respond to any communication. The home is nicely decorated and very clean. Hadorns bakery is next door and is a must to visit and other restaurants are within walking distance. The back patio is a great place to relax after a day on the Bourbon Trail.

Exceeded expectations. The location of the property was within walking distance of downtown. Most of the Bourbon Trail distilleries were a short drive away.

It was everything mentioned in the listing an more. The house was so clean and had such nice details. - Master bed and bath were wonderful. They even supplied high end shampoo, conditioner, soap lotion etc. The Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed.
The location was great. - Walking distance to everything. There was a singer at the scout and scholar(the brew pub right next door - actually right in the back yard) on our last night. Wed sat in the back yard and just listened. - It was great. - And it was over at 10 pm so it wasn't loud at all if you did want to go to bed early.
Many recommendations from the owners, which we tried and agree with.
Will be back!!!

Very few rentals live up to their online pictures. The HayJac house exceeded our expectations & may be the nicest vrbo that we've stayed in. Our friends stayed with us for 2 nights and were very impressed. Jim was the perfect host. His place is within walking distance of the Oscar Getz Museum, restaurants and bars. If we return to Bardstown...it would be to stay at The HayJac house. Thank you, Jim & Gina

This property is amazing! In a great neighborhood… very close to everything downtown that we could walk to. Loved sitting outside on the back porch..
All amenities are top notch. Close to all distilleries. Civil war museum is well done.
Was looking forward to the bakery next door, but they were closed for the week for a family vacation/reunion.. but many great places to eat in town. Would definitely come back for another visit.

This is a beautiful house in a great location! The pictures don't really do it justice. The owners have thought of everything - an extremely well stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, comfortable beds/bedding, etc. The owners were responsive and very helpful. I agree with another reviewer who said this should be an example for how to run a rental property.

This was our first visit to the area. The house was a perfect location for the distilleries we wanted to visit. The house was beautifully decorated and spotless. We are looking forward to returning to the area and staying here again.

We spent the weekend there with another couple. The two bedrooms/2 baths were luxurious. The kitchen was well equipped with quality dinnerware & cookware. We spent a lot of time on the back patio. An outdoor restaurant/bar was on the adjacent property, but was not a problem. The location was central to Bardstown, a very walkable town. Jim & Gina gave extensive fair descriptions of restaurant options.

Hayjac House is simply perfect. We stayed four nights on a Bourbon Trail trip. The location is easily walkable to downtown Bardstown and convenient to so many distilleries. The home is gorgeous with very comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen, and a relaxing patio. It’s definitely a property that I would return to.

Our party of four adults enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. The house is beautifully decorated and designed for comfort. Communication with Jim was prompt and he provided great information on places to eat in the area. We were welcomed with fresh flowers on the table and large round ice cubes for our bourbon enjoyment. We especially enjoyed sitting on the back patio after a day of touring local distilleries. Beds were comfortable and every surface was pristine. We all appreciated the attention to detail and heartily recommend this property to anyone looking for a home away from home.

Probably the best vacation rental we have ever stayed in!! So well decorated and clean. The kitchen is well stocked with many extras. Comfortable beds and beautiful bathrooms. Location is perfect. Right next to a brewery and bakery what could be better!

This is our second time staying at this house and we can’t rave about it enough. It’s exceptionally clean and exactly how it appears in the photos. The beds are amazingly comfortable, the master suite is to die for. An amazing kitchen and is a perfect location for walking downtown. It’s easily drivable to all the distilleries in Bardstown, too. Jim went out of his way to make recommendations for the best place to find fresh lobster to cook in for dinner one night and was always extremely easy to reach and communicate with and answered all questions. Our second trip here and we plan to return!

The best VRBO we've ever stayed at. All other properties in the country should use HayJack house as a model of how to accommodate guests. We'll be back in the summer.
