We booked the house so we could attend The Kentucky Derby. The house was perfect for a home base to easily drive downtown or Churchill. We were able to walk from Churchill after derby and relax in the hot tub. The check in process was extremely easy, and the host was very attentive! My daughter particularly enjoyed the basement area with a speakeasy and game room. Great place!
