Description
Welcome to the epicenter of Bourbon Country! Situated minutes from World-Renowned distilleries, this Boutique Short-term Rental + Bourbon Bar has quickly become a thriving and trustworthy destination for Distillery-Tour Groups, Bourbon Lovers and Thoroughbred Enthusiasts from across the USA. Most recognizable as the ”Mason & Hoge” Building, this memorable landmark of the Central Business Historic District easily justifies why its facade is featured on the front of the State Capital’s tourism guide: ”Visit Frankfort”.
