WE ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS CABIN!!
This is the best little place! I can't imagine staying anywhere else in Lexington. The cabin is located in the perfect spot. You can walk anywhere in town that you'd like...Rupp Arena, shops, restaurants, Transylvania, etc. The cabin is immaculately clean and spacious. It is decorated so tastefully too. Everything you can imagine you would need for your stay is right there. Plenty of space, extremely comfortable beds and linens, multiple tvs and baths, laundry machines, dishwasher, etc. I highly recommend the cabin and we can't wait to come back and use it again! It is truly a historic gem!
