Absolutely beautiful!
This property is absolutely beautiful. Clean, comfy beds, beautifully decorated and well furnished. Gorgeous setting! Only drawback was the kitchen only has an undercounter refrigerator without a freezer. That means a LONG trek back to the refr/freezer in the laundry room - probably not a big deal for most people without a "walking problem". Such a gorgeous, well kept property! Easy trip to super walmart and Paris.

Donkeys & more!
What a great property! It was bigger than anticipated with large, spacious bedrooms. The property is very clean with beautiful wood floors. It is located right in the middle of horse country and an easy (and beautiful) drive into downtown Lexington (about 20 minutes). The donkeys were a hit with all and enjoyed the apples and carrots. Communication with the owners was very easy. You will potentially meet the owners and others working the property. All were very pleasant, happy to help & answer any questions. I highly recommend this rental! It is one floor with parking on a well maintained gravel driveway.

Spacious elegant stay in horse country
The property was immaculate and well designed. The view of the horse pastures was wonderful as were the mares and foals. Wonderful high ceilings and a light filled great room. My only critique is that there is no house number so it took a couple minutes to find.

Perfect Setting
The train station surpassed our expectations. Everything about it was nice and polished. The floors, lighting and many of the details were similar to what would have originally existed in a train station. The bed was very comfortable which is a bit unusual when it is not your own bed. We enjoyed walking the property and vsiting the horses and donkeys. Not sure if we will even have another opportunity to be in Paris, but we would definitely stay again if we did.

Exceeded All Expectations!
What a great place to stay! The location is beautiful. We were there for the K3D and after traipsing around all day for three days, we thoroughly enjoyed coming "home" to our beautiful and tastefully renovated "train station." It was comfortable, relaxing, spotlessly clean and well maintained. The owner and his wife live nearby and were clearly available if we needed anything. His wife added special touches that made us feel very welcome. It's a great place to stay!

Class in the Bluegrass
This property is awesome. We enjoyed being out in the middle of horse country with beautiful vistas and horses everywhere we looked. We toured Lane’s End Farm and especially enjoyed seeing Flightline and the other stallions there. We also went to the Keeneland September sale with horses selling for over one million dollars. All in all, a wonderful place to stay.

The house was very clean and plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 kids. Fresh flowers and cookies were there when we arrived. The area is beautiful and we loved walking around the property and seeing all the horses. They were very friendly and walked right up to you.

Heavenly Retreat!
My husband and I were looking for a peaceful weekend away to recharge and regroup amidst our hectic and demanding life responsibilities and we were not disappointed. The accommodations were beautiful and just top notch, bed was comfortable, kitchen was supplied for our dinner making, and the location- amazing. We sat outside to soak in the sunset and watch the beautiful horses and their foals saunter through the evening which was about as close to heaven as we could get for the moment. The hosts created a needed and memorable retreat that will remain with us indefinitely. Thank you, Steve and Lisa!

Dream Property
Absolutely loved the area and old railroad station that the property was at. Pictures do not do it justice. The owner stopped and talked with my husband and told him we could walk up to the barn and told us about things to do in the area. Every morning we took our walk to the barn and loved on the horses. February is when babies are born so it was neat to see so many moms with their babies. My favorite horse was It's the Swede she was so sweet I wish I could take her home. Then there was John George and Sallie these two are the sweetest donkeys you will ever meet. John George love's his treats so make sure you bring him something when you visit. I will definitely stay here again. It was in beautiful horse county but close to everything. I wish I could move in it was so peaceful. My family loved everything. The beds where comfortable and the kitchen was huge with everything you need. Believe you will not want to leave.
