About this property

Lofty Lodge on the Bourbon Trail

Come to the Bourbon Trail in the Heart of Kentucky! Stay at our beautiful lodge with large common areas perfect for hanging out! Our space is great for family trips, work retreats, or a couples get away! The lodge is located just 3 miles from from restaurants, groceries, pharmacies and shops. But at the Lodge you will enjoy the peace of the country. We are central to all the bourbon distilleries: 15mi to Maker's mark, 35mi to Jim Beam, 50mi to Woodford Reserve, Lexington and Louisville.

The lodge is the top floor of a converted old tobacco barn. Much of the year it serves as a hunting lodge hosting deer and turkey hunters. We use it as a rental during hunting off season. Every bathroom and bedroom is private. You must climb stairs to access the majority of the place. There is a DVD player and DirecTV with a complete package. There is free Wi-Fi as well. We do use the barn to store farm equipment, so we may be in and out of the barn if we are working but will not be in the living quarters. We will try our very best not to bother you!

We do also have a passenger bus that will accommodate those staying with us. We can get you set up to take on your bourbon trail adventure.

We live just down the hill at the house. So if you need us we can help you out, but promise not to bother you otherwise.

Roomy, comfortable and clean.
Enjoyed our stay. Property was very clean. Only drawback was very few places to hang or store clothes. Extra hooks needed in bathrooms. One bed was broken on one side, but I feel sure the owners will address that.

My family and I stayed at the Lofty Lodge for Derby weekend. Beautiful place! Spacious, comfortable, and had all amenities needed. Owners were awesome too!! Very easy to communicate with. They even stopped by to say hello and to check to see if anything was needed. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely book there again for future events.

Awesome Stay
First, the pictures do not do this place justice. The main floor, which is technically on the second floor is dramatically, huge with literally an archery range indoors on the side of the main floor. the hunting decorations are impressive and the bar is really cool the outdoor areas nice and convenient. There are large TVs everywhere. It has an office area. The dining room table sits about 18 people. I cannot say enough about this place. It is fantastic. I would only add maybe electrical warmers outside since we went in January and it was really cold. I understand that that is asking a lot but it’s something to consider. We loved our stay and we are definitely going to stay here again.

Bourbon Trail Trip with Clients
The location is very spacious inside and secluded outside. The owner is on the same property but a good distance away so it was still private. However, they were close enough to assist us with a couple of items that we forgot to bring. We have already booked for next year. This place is unforgettable! You can't find a better atmosphere for a bourbon trail or hunting trip. It has all the large TVs and connectivity to watch sports or whatever while at the same time feeling like a remote rustic hunting lodge.

MSU Bobcats tailgate group does the Bourbon Trail!
We were a group of 11 friends who toured the Bourbon trail for 5 days This place was more than perfect for us to have plenty of comfort and space. It is located perfectly to tour different distilleries in several locations. We made breakfast and dinner everyday and the kitchen worked wonderful for us. Even showering never ran out of hot water. Everyone enjoyed coming back each night to this lovely lofty barn. The only problem was the rainy weather, so didn't get to enjoy the firepit or outside bar. Of course we still tried one evening. Not a fault of the owners. Another problem was they wouldn't let us take the two dogs home with us. So if you have a large group this is the place to stay!

Perfect for wedding reception
This property was beautiful and just what we wanted for our wedding reception. We had family and friends traveling from several states to come celebrate with us. All the guests were in awe of how beautiful it was and the space. The outdoor space was the best. We set up a karaoke machine and danced the night away. We will definitely consider having more gatherings here!

We stayed here for 5 days and had an amazing time! 3 adult couples and longtime friends in Kentucky for the first time to do the Bourbon Trail and go to the Kentucky/Florida football game. This place was conveniently located to everything we did. It’s a great place to unplug and get away from it all. We loved sitting out by the fire pit at night, listening to music on the tv in the silo and grilling out. Had everything we needed and we all had a great time! Pictures are accurate but they can’t convey the peacefulness we experienced while being there. No interference at all from those working in the barn while we were there. The owners, or someone nearby has 2 of the sweetest dogs that we loved seeing each day as well. Great place to stay for couples, highly recommend!
