White Mills Other | Historic Bland-Overall home on 508 private acres. Blue Oval/Etown Sports Complex

3 Bedroom Place in White Mills, Glendale

The Bland-Overall House was built circa 1850 and is on the National Historic List. It is on the Nolin River, and also part of Camp Nevin, which was a Union Army Camp. Enjoy long walks, canoeing, kayaking, exploring our river cabin, the parlor, etc. You get to enjoy a ultra private location that is only 3 miles from the Blue Oval SK site and 7 miles from the Elizabethtown Sports Complex!
This pet-friendly home is close to Louisville, Bowling Green and the Bourbon Trail as well. It is a sister home to our house, where Nolin River Wildlife is located as well. Identical homes, actually built for two sisters over 160 years ago!
This is a very private setting in a historical home. There are 3 bedrooms, 1 with a king and 2 full beds. We have also just added a bedroom air conditioner for each of the three bedrooms to ensure you can control your own temperature when you go to bed!
However, the house does have central/heat and air, the individual air conditioners just for preference of temperature in each bedroom!
Great outdoor space with a fire pit, grill, table and chairs. We also put up string lights for you to enjoy the space after dark. Fire starters, matches, seasoned/split firewood and extra propane is included.
Also has a great game room with a poker table, bar and practice craps table! Also have many board games, jenga and backgammon as well. We also just added a basketball goal and a kayak for your enjoyment! Kayak in detached garage where basketball goal is.
Could also enjoy dinner at Tony York’s or The Whistle Stop in town, both wonderful!
Also enjoy the fully stocked kitchen to prepare your meals. Dishwasher in kitchen island.
There is a record player/cd/radio in the parlor. Also have a wireless/Bluetooth portable speaker in same room to use while at fire pit or down at the river! Also a Bose radio/cd player upstairs in the king bed room.
Guest access
You will be able to access the entire house as well as the outbuildings. There is an original summer kitchen as well as a child playhouse.
You and your guests are also welcome to use our two car garage while you are @ the farm as well.
Other things to note
Absolutely private setting and no worry about traffic, etc. The driveway is a private drive almost a mile long that dead ends @ the house! In season you will have your own pumpkin patch in the backyard. Feel free to pick your favorite and take it home! Also fresh mint just outside the laundry room door in season as well.
Just in case you want to make your visit even more special, we have two very cool options to explore...................

Summary: Wow, where do I even start! We had an amazing time! We were in town for a baseball tourney and enjoy creating experiences for our children! The wildlife rescue was so beautiful - the work this team does is simply amazing! Even had the team over for a cookout and enjoyed a family wiffleball game in the front yard! Loved every second of our time! Thanks so much!

Summary: So wonderful to stay on this peaceful property out in the country. It feels so special to stay in a home with such rich history. The old trees and birds chirping in the morning was the best thing. One of my favorite places! Thanks so much Jeff for opening your home and this special land to us :)

Summary: Mary and Jeff Key were wonderful! The house is better than pictured. We chose this property due to the proximity of our sons Elizabethtown Ripken baseball tournament. All six of us enjoyed every bit of Glendale and the house! We slept remarkably well. Our son’s teammates visited, we grilled and kids played wiffleball. We had a fantastic opportunity to visit Mary and the Nolan wildlife rescue several times during the week. The Rescue was actually a highlight of our trip. We highly recommend staying here and having the opportunity to meet Mary and Jeff. If we have an opportunity to return to Glendale, we will circle back and meet up with the Key family. Thank you for having us!

Summary: Our family came into E-town for a baseball tournament for our oldest son and stayed at the Bland-Overall house. Jeff and Mary were incredibly accommodating and thought of all the details for our stay to make us feel welcome. The house and property were amazing! Our family’s favorite thing was the Nolin River Wildlife. It is a must see while staying on the property. The seclusion and quietness were such a treat for our family. The boys played lots of whiffle ball in the front yard and did a lot of fishing. I definitely recommend this property!

Summary: We stayed in Glendale for our sons week long baseball tournament in Elizabethtown. It was a perfect escape after each day full of games. The house was charming and the land was so peaceful. We even had the entire team over for a cookout and all the boys loved being able to play some whiffle ball and see deer in the yard!

Summary: I cannot say enough about this property or it's magnificent owners. This place is as authentic as it gets. The property's rich history is fascinating. The story of its origin is endearing and extraordinary..... And I have yet to speak of the home and property itself. It is exceptionally secluded and about as private as you can possibly get. You can equate it with being on an island. One in which the owners have gone to great detail to think of everything you could need. If you want to enjoy a true escape this is it. A perfect place to have as much space as you desire with its large yard and surrounding property including the Nolin River which runs right through it. The home itself is genuine, authentic and true to its rich history and the heritage and era in which it was built, but with all of the modern day luxuries we have become so dependent on.... Though while here you may begin to question just how much you really need them vs. how much these things interfere with living the way that we could and should. This brings me to the owners, which again I can not say enough about. The Keys live the life people like me have dreamed to live for a long time....they live right, they pride themselves on doing good by others and giving of themselves to the world around them. A visit to their wildlife sanctuary is strongly recommended. I assure you that when you depart you will be changed and it is for the better, young and old alike. This property would not be the same without them. My family and I have already starting talking about annual family reunions on this property that had such a lasting impact on us all. Thank you J & M Nothing short of an epiphany for me and my family. YOU INFLUENCED A CHANGE IN ALL OF US.
