About this property

The Gate House - Lancaster, KY

My place is close to Centre College in Danville, UK in Lexington, Asbury College in Wilmore, Bluegrass airport, Keenland, restaurants and dining, art and culture, family-friendly activities, airports, lakes, and much more.
. You’ll love my place because of the light, the comfy bed, the coziness, the kitchen, and the high ceilings. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), and big groups. It s a warm home with plenty of southern hospitality.

Not all VRBOs are the same.

Not all VRBOs are the same. This owner was quick to resolve the issues. The owner showed us where the clean sheets were so we can take the ones that had hair on them, and stink bugs, off of the beds. The owner found another place for the maintenance man who was set up to spend another night there, not realizing we were coming. The owner had the roofing repair man move the ladder, after we got there, out of our way so we could access the home easier. She allowed us to move the items that were left in the refrigerator(leftovers, used condiments, etc) out of our way, so we could have room for our items. Not all VRBOs are the same.

What is that?

My first impression of The Gate House was affected by a text from the host warning that the kitchen stove was dangerous to use. This concern was amplified by the long, uncut grass, several pieces of distressed, tattered bunting, and a fire pit that was stacked nearly four-feet high with broken twigs and limbs creating a sense of disuse about the property.Once inside, the home initially seemed welcoming. That sense seemed even less so when I discovered there were no places in the many chests in any of the rooms to store any clothing, so we lived out of our bags.I expected, as I have always done when staying at a VRBO, to stop at the local grocer on the way into town. But, after the caution (and especially after seeing the kitchen), I realized that I would not be comfortable either preparing or storing food there. The kitchen cupboards, old as they were, were dirty and more than a couple were adorned by thick cobwebs. The refrigerator kept my carry-in containers cold and the microwave warmed our leftover pizza, but those were the only two aspects we used, other than the few microwave-safe plates we found that were the right size to fit in the microwave.I understand that we, as VRBO clients, are somewhat expected to provide our own bath and shower products. The reality is that every VRBO property I have rented in the past has provided some hotel-like bath products. Instead we found a heavily-used sliver of soap along with nearly empty shampoos/body cleansers. The tubs were di

Short and Sweet

This past weekend me and 11 other friends of mine ran in the RAGNAR Bourbon Chase. We used this VRBO as a shower/sleeping spot for us during the overnight hours of the 200ish mile run. 6 of us were at the house at one time in shifts. Debbie was so nice she made sure we had fresh towels between our groups and the house was very nice. If you have ever done the Bourbon Chase you know how nice it is to have a shower and a bed to sleep in, even if it is only for 2 hours. Thanks again Debbie!
