We recently stayed at a charming cottage in Frankfort, KY and had a wonderful time. The house was beautifully decorated with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The location was perfect, just a short walk from downtown and the Kentucky River. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting Frankfort.

This is a great getaway for a couple. Super private and comfortable. Not a negative but look at total cost with all fees before you book. It is a bit pricey.

A Perfect Mountain Getaway! Our stay at the tiny house on Windy Lane was nothing short of amazing! The location is perfect—just minutes away from all the attractions of Pigeon Forge, yet nestled in a quiet, serene area that offers peace and relaxation. The tiny house itself is a marvel of design, offering every amenity you could need in a cozy, stylish package. The space is immaculately clean and thoughtfully decorated, with clever use of every inch. We loved the comfortable bed, the fully-equipped kitchen, and the charming outdoor seating area where we enjoyed our morning coffee with stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The hosts were incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Whether you're looking for a romantic escape or a solo retreat, this tiny house is the ideal spot. We can’t wait to return!

The Lantern Lodge was a great stay for my husband and I to stay for our babymoon getaway! We were looking for a place that had a private yard for our dog but was still close to attractions, the LL checked all of our needs! Clean kitchen, clean bathroom, clean living room and clean bedroom are a major plus with dog friendly stays and the Lantern Lodge checked all the above! The host provides all necessary things to get your stay started and has a full kitchen with everything needed for a comfortable stay! Very convenient, accessible and has a home away from home feel! Will def keep this place in mind for future stays!

Great place to stay for a quick trip! The host was responsive and sweet. It was very clean and comfortable for 2. Since it was summer, the loft was warm so we opted for the futon which was fine. Cute place, would stay again!

Loved this place! Yard was big enough for both our dogs & location feels secluded. There is road noise, but the woods between the cabin & road muffles it some. Bring some bug spray if here during the warmer months! The bed is comfy, the shower is great, & the hot tub is relaxing! It was a short/easy drive to most everything we wanted to do during our stay. The pictures don’t do justice to the size of yard or the beauty of the property! The story behind the cabin is so special which made us appreciate our stay even more. Highly recommend.

Great place within walking distance of the downtown area. Beds are very comfortable. Kitchen and appliances are all great. Take advantage of the fans left by the host in the summer. It is an older, remolded home and the upstairs rooms run a little hot. We would definitely stay here again if in the area!
