Walk to Gatton Park, Distillery District & Rupp Arena, Historic Carriage House

Stay in a piece of Lexington history. This carriage house from the early 1800s appears on the city’s first map (1840), making it one of the oldest surviving buildings downtown. Its original character blends seamlessly with modern updates. The location couldn’t be better: steps from the brand-new Gatton Park—with walking & biking trails, playgrounds, splash pad, amphitheater, & dog park. Right next door is the Mary Todd Lincoln House, buzzing again thanks to Broadway. Walk to Rupp Arena

Located in the Heart of Downtown Lexington, guests will experience some street noise and traffic. We are just off Main Street, we have added additional insulation during renovations to cut down on any outside noise.

Gatton Park: trails, playgrounds, splash pad, dog park, amphitheater
Mary Todd Lincoln House: historic landmark next door
Rupp Arena: walk to UK games, concerts, and major events
Distillery District: breweries, dining, and nightlife within blocks
Downtown theaters and restaurants: all walkable
Keeneland, Red Mile, Kentucky Horse Park: quick drive away

Guests will have full access to the property.
