Sightseeing

Keeneland is the local race track and in my opinion the best! It's so fun to get dressed up for opening day (or any other day) and just mill around with the locals and win some horse bets!

Neighborhoods

The bourbon trail begins (or ends) in Lexington, KY depending on how you look at. There are multiple distilleries (and breweries) located within the Lexington city limits as well as just right outside of it. I worked at Wild Turkey in my college days and the drive in and out of Lawrenceburg is breath taking! Not to mention the other local distilleries' tours. It just take you back to a simpler, more peaceful time. And you get to taste test some bourbon!

Doodle's is the cutest breakfast/lunch place a few blocks over from the airbnb. Definitely an easy walk. It includes mimosas and shrubbery laced outdoor dining for a serene breakfast/lunch experience.

Nic & Norman's is such a quaint, sophisticated downtown dinery. We've ended up here a couple of times and just can't help falling in love with it every time! Don't skip the Mac & Cheese and brisket. Soooooo good!

Definitely one of our favs as well! Such a cool little brewery. Indoor/outdoor seating with a garage door set-up. Great location for just lounging and having a good beer. There's also a small fish restaurant attached next door if you get hungry!
