Perfect location
We were 2 travelers and used 2 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms. Location is perfect to visit horse farms, Horse Park, Keeneland and downtown Lexington. Our host Julia was super. The house is nice and clean and all the amenities were provided as listed plus homemade cookies! We enjoyed the view & feeding carrots to the horses! A great restaurant next to the farm. We hope to return again. Thanks Julia for a wonderful time!

Lovely home for a family stay
We were delighted upon check in - the home was even better than in the photos and description. The personal communication from the host and them going out of their way to make sure we have everything we need during our stay were just some of the many perks of staying at the Colliver House. Make sure to say hello and be kind to the very sweet horses surrounding the farm! We hope to be back next year.

Railbird Music Festival
Our family of 4 including 2 older teens plus grandma stayed at Colliver House. This was our home base for the Railbird Music Festival. It worked out perfectly! Julia is a very attentive host. The homemade chocolate chip cookies were devoured immediately and the extras were so appreciated!!! Cheese and crackers, fresh fruit, coffee, soda, bacon and eggs, carrots to feed the horses and much, much more!! This is a very comfortable house. Not new but very clean. It feels like your visiting grandma's house in the country. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone who needs a place near Lexington. Very convenient to the UK campus.

Wonderful Lexington stay
Three girlfriends stayed for 3 nights at Coliver house on Claybank farm. We had an exceptional visit, enjoying the surrounding property, mares and foals. Julia was a very generous and attentive host. We were so fortunate to be able to go with her to visit Spendthrift Farm. Seeing the stallions, trophy room, and spectacular beauty of the grounds was the highlight of our stay. Thank you, Julia and Des for such a memory. And Pepper, you are a dear and a talented tee shirt artist.

5* Home away from home
The hostess with the mostess! Julia provided us with a beautiful home surrounded by beautiful horses and pastures. When we arrived she had baked chocolate chip cookies for us and left a refrigerator and pantry with lots of goodies and essentials. She goes above and beyond as an owner of a VRBO house. We have already booked for next year. Can't wait until then. Thank you Julia!!

Veteran Reunion
We spent our annual reunion at the farm and experienced the Lexington Area. This is our second weekend at the farm and Keeneland. Julia is the best host we have experienced on our travels. One of a kind experience having your coffee and feeding carrots to the horses. Property is top notch and well maintained. The snacks and meal items place for guests make you feel like family. Highly recommend this experience.

The best Experience!
This property is cozy, clean, and the host is WONDERFUL! We had to bring our very rare, and expensive sheep to do promotions for a business in Lexington, Louisville, and Cincinnati, and needed a place to house them in the dead of winter. Julia, the host went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed, not only for us, but for the sheep as well. You can’t go wrong booking this property! We will book again if we return. The beds were comfy, the pillows were perfect and the views are amazing!

Perfect Place to Stay!!!
Stayed a week for the National Horse Show at the Kentucky Horse Park. Great location that was 10-15 minutes from the park. Julia is an absolute gem of a host. Reached out several days before if we needed anything when we arrived. Had coffee and creamer ready with a stocked fridge. Located next to a very quaint restaurant/store called the Windy Corner. We loved our visit and will definitely stay again. Thx Julia

Beautiful surroundings, cozy farmhouse, warm hospitality
Julia's place exceeded all expectations that any of us had for what a home-away-from-home could and should offer. The towels and sheets are luxurious. Julia had made homemade chocolate chip cookies to welcome us upon arrival. Check-in and check-out were simple. The adjacent Windy Corner restaurant is not to be missed. We enjoyed feeding the horses, and Julia was a wealth of information about the house, the area, and the property's history. Her communication was extremely quick and responsive. We appreciated all of the little, thoughtful touches that set this booking apart from any vacation rental that we have ever stayed at. Many thanks to Julia for the unparalleled hospitality.

Exceeded Expectations!
We had a family gathering at this lovely home outside Lexington. The home is located on a horse farm and provided a peaceful and relaxing weekend. The home has so warm and comfortable. Our host Julia went above and beyond to help us feel welcome-great communication, fresh baked cookies! Eggs & bacon, coffee and tea! Truly enjoyed walking the property and hanging with the horses. Sitting on the back porch was so tranquil watching the horses and the barn kitties. The location is convenient to Lexington as we went to Keeneland each day. We are a party of five adults and this home gave us plenty of room for together times and private time. Our son stated this was the best VRBO rental EVER! We cannot wait for our next visit to Claybank Farm! Thank you Julia for sharing your beautiful home.

Love the horses!
This was our second reunion at Claybank Farm, and it was as wonderful as the first. Even better because there were two mares with colts in addition to the horse-friends we made last year. The house is always well-stocked and comfortable. Julia is the best host ever!

This property ( a horse farm) is in a beautiful location among rolling hills and horse farms/ranches. Our host, Julia was amazing as she had anything and everything needed for our stay available for us, including freshly baked cookies, and bacon and eggs to cook for breakfast. Great location just outside of downtown Lexington, with peace and quiet, beautiful horses, and awesome sunrise/set! We WILL be back!

Homely feel, great location
We stayed with Julia for two weeks while we were showing at the horse park. It was a perfect place for us to stay with our client and staff. Julia was incredibly welcoming and provided everything we needed to make the stay comfortable. The location is great, close to the horse park and a direct shot into downtown.

BreyerFest, Bourbon, and Foals
Had a wonderful stay at this farm house. Brought our 9 year old daughter for BreyerFest and I think she enjoyed her stay on this property as much or even more than BreyerFest. She visited the horses on property often and Julia let her assist with turning the babies out at night. What an experience! Property is beautiful and the house is an old, charming farmhouse. Host provided so many extras that made our stay relaxing and enjoyable. We will be back!

An 80th birthday
The week-end could not have gone better except maybe it could have been warmer. We were celebrating my husbands 80 th birthday. With my kids there were 7 of us totally. Julia is an amazing host. From beginning to end she was there to help us and answer our questions. My husband wanted to go to Keenland to watch the races. Julia helped us get tickets and figure out what to do there. When we arrived we found fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and a refrigerator stocked with bacon, eggs and biscuits. We also found carrots and apples to feed the horses. My husband and kids all agreed it was our best VRBO experience ever. The house was clean, well stocked and comfortable and Julia had thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable. We loved feeding the horses and walking around the grounds. It was too cold but the front and back porch looked like t hey would be perfect for just sitting and relaxing and enjoying the peaceful setting. I highly recommend this rental. I know we will be back when we can and will tell all our friends about it.
