I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.

There’s nothing like a stay in a Kentucky B&B to experience Southern hospitality at its finest. What’s more, many of Kentucky’s bed and breakfasts boast scenic beauty and historic intrigue, making them truly unique and bucket-worthy places to stay. The Blind Pig Bourbon B&B is the “newest” historic bed and breakfast in Kentucky. This historic home from 1790 has been lovingly renovated and is as beguiling and charming as ever.
Welcome to The Blind Pig Bourbon B&B, a beautifully restored circa-1790 home listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
This beautiful homestead is nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of the Bardstown Historic District, just a stone's throw from the area's top attractions, restaurants, and, of course, bourbon distilleries.
The B&B is part of a trio of entities associated with The Blind Pig Bourbon name, which also includes The Blind Pig Bourbon Market and The Blind Boar Shanty, the latter of which is a self-described, bourbon-filled "men's cave and store" and "rebellious cousin" of its Pig counterpart.
The Blind Pig B&B, however, is anything but rebellious. This beautiful brick home has been tastefully refurbished to maintain its architectural integrity, with worn wood beams, floors, and fireplaces creating an impossibly cozy atmosphere.
The B&B's rooms are all tastefully decorated with inviting amenities and fun details that harken back to the speakeasy vibe of the Prohibition era. The three well-appointed guest suites each pay homage to a different female figure who ran stylish New York speakeasies in the 1920s and '30s.
Each room boasts modern amenities including a luxury bed and linens and a private full bathroom. Two of the suites have gas fireplaces and ceiling fans, ensuring maximum comfort for your visit. In fact, comfort is top priority at this B&B; each suite is thoroughly prepped prior to arrival, a theme that continues throughout your stay.
Guests rave about hosts Stephen and David, especially Stephen's prowess in the kitchen! Expect delicious, soul-filling, home-cooked meals made with love.
The hosts might even include rare bourbons from their personal collection! An amazing nightcap at an impossibly charming and historic B&B in the heart of Kentucky Bourbon Country? It doesn't get any better than this.
This historic B&B in Kentucky is about as charming as it gets; a bucket-list must for all Bluegrass history lovers and bourbon aficionados! Visit the Blind Pig Bourbon B&B website to book your next getaway.
