Plenty to do for small kids and this place is great for well behaved pets. Every nook and cranny has a different food vendor, I believe I saw 4 total. There were two bar sections and they have a cooler with different options to drink as well. I have never been here until this most recent trip, and I was pleasantly surprised at how nice this environment was and how inviting it feels. Probably my new favorite post work hangout to let the traffic die down. It even rained and the environment was still nice as there is plenty indoor shelter and overhead coverage to comfortable hold the amount of people that come out on a Friday night.

Recently spent 3 wonderful days and 2 glorious nights at the beautiful Spring Run Farm and Inn…read more(horse farm and bed & breakfast) in Prospect, KY. My hubby took me there in celebration of my 70th birthday! An equestrian experience was actually #2 on my bucket list, and it was such a joy to spend time at this amazing place!! Have always loved horses, and have had some experience/training as a teenager, but hadn't gotten my hands on a horse in decades. We were met at the inn at check-in by co-owner and master chef, Jeff Perellis. He showed us around the B&B, gave us a history lesson about the 2 circa 1790's cabins that had been enclosed within the beautifully restored dwelling, and made us feel most welcome. Later during our stay, he prepared several truly delicious breakfasts and dinners for us, as well. Co-owner Susan Perellis, an award-winning horsewoman whose family has owned this property for over 200 years and who grew up on the farm, arranged for us to have a riding lesson and trail ride with one of her trainers. The instructor, Linda, was very patient with us old folks, and was wonderful to work with. And a shout out to Linda's daughter, Lisa, who acted as a sort of ambassador for the farm from the minute we stepped past the inn's gate and into the horse barn area. (They have 5 barns and dozens and dozens of horses there!!) Lisa introduced us to most of the horses, helped teach us how to interact with them, gave us tips on riding, etc. Many people who come to Spring Run Farm and Inn just stay the night while they are doing other things in the area. Not us! We parked the car, then stayed on the property the whole time to get the most from this adventure! All the other riders at the farm were exceptionally friendly, as well, and were always willing to tell us about their horses, and often gave us treats to give to them! (Who knew horses liked peppermint candy!!) During our stay, we walked all over the property, and were also able to observe several riding lessons during our visit. Our entire experience at Spring Run Farm and Inn exceeded our expectations far beyond our wildest dreams, but the "icing on the cake" was going with owners Susan and Jeff during their "night check" of all the horses in the barns!! Can't tell you how special and magical it was to walk into a darkened barn at night, having Susan switch on the light, and all the beautiful horses sticking their heads out of their stalls to see who was coming to visit them!! A big THANK YOU to Jeff, Susan, Linda, Lisa, and everybody at Spring Run Farm and Inn for helping me celebrate my special birthday! We hope to be back soon!!!

First bed and breakfast experience and what an experience!!! I was expecting an old barn and a…read morecontinental breakfast. Instead it was a, very, recently updated house. We stayed in July and the days were consistently in the 90s and with the humidity it felt like over 100. The house and our room were always cool, it was such a relief. The WiFi was strong and present every where. Breakfast!! The first night it was just myself, my wife and nine year old daughter staying at the Inn. Jeff, the proprietor, asked what time we wanted breakfast. With nothing early to do that day we settled on 8:30. We came downstairs at 8:30 to find the table set. Coffee and orange juice on the table. There was yogurt and fresh blueberries and strawberries too. Then Jeff brought the eggs, bacon and potatoes! So much more than the bagel and granola bar I was expecting! I won't step though all four breakfasts in this much detail but just list some things that Jeff, a former chef, served. Bacon every day, baked French toast with fruit, a quiche, grits (my request), pancakes and there was always cereal if my daughter turned her nose up at something. This was the best meal of the day every day we were there! Did I mention how hot it was? We had brought a cooler on the five hour drive from home with water and pop that we planned to drink throughout the week. We brought the whole cooler home untouched! As we 'checked in' Jeff showed us the beverage fridge (water, soda, beer) which he kept stocked for the whole stay. Finally I will mention the early evening social hour snacks. Chips, dip, veggies, meat, cheese and always a bottle wine. Any time I need to be in Louisville I will be staying at the Inn !!

However, while the number of vendors has grown, I didn't spot many selling fruits, veggies or meat. Those that were had a steady crowd. What I did spot today: jarred veggies and preserves, soaps and candles, handcrafted baby items and toys, Berserker cold brew, West 6th beer, desserts by the slice, wooden artwork and food trucks. The farmers market is held near the regular cottages (steel city pops, alchemy, bluegrass witch, etc.) so they'll be open for business too. This was a quick pit stop for our day, approx 30 minutes. If you come hungry they have 2-3 food trucks or booths to grab a snack. We picked up beef lumpia from the Bamba's food truck and sat on the post office steps. There's a few tables around the cottages and we spotted a couple of families laying blankets in the field for a quick picnic.

The property itself is beautifully maintained, with thoughtful details in every corner that reflect both comfort and charm. The room was spotless, cozy, and tastefully decorated. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and every amenity you could need was provided. Mornings were a highlight, with DELICIOUS homemade breakfasts that were not only beautifully presented but also full of flavor and care. What truly sets this place apart, though, are the innkeepers Missy & John. Their hospitality goes above and beyond anything you might expect. They are attentive without being intrusive, always ready with helpful recommendations, engaging conversation, or simply a friendly smile. It's clear they take immense pride in what they do, and it shows in every interaction. This is more than just a place to stay--it's an experience that leaves you feeling refreshed, cared for, and eager to return. I would highly recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone looking for a peaceful, welcoming getaway.

We stopped in at the Clubhouse section, the bar where you can do tastings in a comfortable setting with comfy leather couches, nestled into the trees, a short distance from the building that offers tours. Jack set us up with four pours based on our interests, and offered a delightful, personalized lesson on their distilling and aging process. While we enjoyed all four tastes, we particularly loved one bourbon, which we then purchased directly from the barrels as part of a thieving experience. We even got to fill the bottle ourselves! We especially enjoyed that Jack signed the bottle personally. Highly recommend Jack and this little gem on the Bourbon Trail.
