Tournament over night stay

Had an archery tournament nearby and didn’t wanted to drive home same day. This property did one night and was affordably priced.Reached out and owner was quick to respond All the pics made this look like a unit that was by itself but it was actually close to the owners home The property owners definitely made it feel very private and I had zero issues. They even parked at their barn to accommodate parking This property was far superior than staying at any hotel

Apartment above the garage

It was one room that could sleep 7. It was nice and quiet. Had a small game area in the garage, and use of the back yard and patio of the main house. The only thing I believe that could make it perfect would be a night light in the bathroom so you do not have to turn on big light in the middle of the night, and rope lights along the stairs going up to the apartment. this way if it is late an someone is already sleeping others can safely navigate the stairs without the big light. Everything else was great. There was a very home away from home feel to the place.

Great place to stay close to Murray State

We stayed for the weekend while taking out daughter to visit Murray State. The space was great and clean and much better than a hotel room.
