Frankfort Cottage | Perfect Bourbon Trail Couple Getaway

1 Bedroom Cottage in Frankfort

Beautiful, quiet and relaxing spot on the banks of the Elkhorn Creek in the idyllic community of Peaks Mill. Perfect for a romantic couple getaway either on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail or simply trying to unplug and reconnect.
This wonderful cottage unplugs from the real world and allows a chance to sit-a-spell on the wonderful screened in back porch while taking in the beauty of the Elkhorn Creek. Bring a kayak, canoe or fishing pole and enjoy all the wonderful stream has to offer right from your backyard. Perfectly situated just doors up from the famous Canoe Kentucky!
The cottage is perfect for a couple, or possibly a couple with one small child. It has four rooms: a comfortable living room with futon couch and rocking chair, along with a fully usable wood stove; a bedroom with one queen size bed, comfortable sheets and even "Mimi's" homemade afghans; a sitting room with a great bench looking out over the creek and old school games to bring back memories from yesteryear; a wonderful fully stocked kitchen, with electric stove, coffee maker and refrigerator/ freezer. The bathroom is small, but comfy, with a walk in shower and novel homemade sink.
The highlight spot in the home is likely the wonderful screened in back porch with twin porch swings, and cozy wicker furniture. A good long book is all you need to enjoy this space. Even in the hot summer months, the ceiling fans and the shade make this a comfortable spot, and the frogs and crickets at night might just find you falling a sleep on the porch!
Located perfectly for the kayaker or canoeist, the Elkhorn Creek is the states most popular stream for these two activities. Canoe Kentucky offers rentals on the creek, and you can even end right in your own backyard, where they will pick the boat up from you later!
The house is also very close to Frankfort and the center of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. Only 10 miles from Buffalo Trace, and slightly farther to Woodford Reserve, Four Roses, Castle and Key, Glenn's Creek, Whiskey Thief and Wild Turkey. Also close to the great restaurants and shopping of downtown Frankfort, Kentucky.
This house is not only perfect for bourbon fans, paddlers, and fishermen and women, but also for those wanting to enjoy Frankfort, the Kentucky State Capital. A short drive gets you to the Capital building, the Library and Archives, the Governors Mansion and most state offices. As well, located nearby is the Kentucky History Museum,, the Frankfort Museum, Fish and Wildlife's Salato Center, Rebecca Ruth Candies, and the Kentucky River. A great way to see much of this would be with our business, The Bourbon Boat aka Kentucky River Tours, who offers river history cruises and are considered one of the number one reviewed attractions in Frankfort. Of course we obviously recommend!
Lastly the home is conveniently located near many of Kentucky's horse farms, as well as the Keeneland Race Track, only 20 minutes away. Downtown Lexington is 30 minutes away. The Ark Encounter is 60 minutes away, as well as downtown Louisville.
On top of this great location, we, the hosts, are Kentucky Bourbon Trail experts. We have been working in the Bourbon Trail world as guides for over 20 years! All this knowledge allows us to offer those booking this house to be given exclusive planning itineraries, tips and bourbon secrets. We are also very knowledgeable on the best local restaurants, bars and nightlife, scenic drives, historic spots and more; many of them are lesser known and therefore, "secrets". All of this allows making planning for you more enjoyable for you and more memorable for those joining you. Allow is to be your "Local Concierge"!

Summary: If you are looking for a peaceful place and don’t mind driving about 15 minutes to get to bars/restaurants, distilleries, and other entertainment then this is absolutely the place for you. We had a wonderful time staying here. Had everything we needed and made it work with a small bathroom. Our dog was also comfortable in the home and we felt safe leaving him there when we ran out to explore.

Summary: Very nice stay. The cabin was equipped with everything we need including recommendations. The cabin is located near water for kayaking and probably fishing. It is quiet and serene. The only thing was the lighting outside. We arrived after 11pm and it was pitch black. They did have a solar light, but it must have died out by that hour.

Summary: This cabin was a great staycation that was still close to attractions but secluded enough to disconnect. We enjoyed the screen in porch the most of our stay but Nathan and Allison were fantastic hosts. We even went out on the bourbon boat for the old Taylor tour that ended with a tour of Buffalo Trace!
