Positive:
Great location. Spacious. Good communication with the staff. There is a free trolley that comes starting at 10:15 more or less every hours that goes around town to the main sites. Everything was working and is fairly new. Would come back to St Clair without any hesitation.
Negative:
Bed was a little too soft.

Chose this place because the price was great, and it’s in the middle of so much. Short walk to campus, short walk downtown, and you have the PeaceHealth bike rack across the street. The place was as advertised, and while it definitely had signs of a well used property, it was exactly what was needed for the trip. It definitely depends on who is staying there at the same time as we had other guests that were a bit loud at times and did not seem to clean up in the kitchen

Recreation is a beautiful home which met all of our needs. Even without air conditioning, we were cool enough. We can’t make it in Illinois without air conditioning. The large beautiful trees made 85 degrees feel more like a mild 70 degrees. The home was spotless and everything so fresh. I wanted to bring my cleaning service with me but, glad that I didn’t. Recreation even allowed me to bring my granddaughter over with us because her place would have been too small. We really enjoyed ourselves and the diversity of the Seattle area. Can’t wait to visit again.

If you don’t stay at The St. Clair, you will be missing out. It is just about a 30 minute drive from Lexington so you’re close enough to the big city but staying in a small town where there is everything you need within a 2 block radius…food, drinks, and gift shopping. The Howser is a tavern located on the 1st floor. Guest have access to the most spectacular speak easy. The housekeeping did not disappoint when we asked for a new set of towels, they were brought up within the hour of the call. When looking for a stay that is convenient to the distilleries in the Frankfort area, this is the place you want.

We loved this Airbnb! Location was perfect, kitchen and bath were well stocked, they even left Fiji water and granola snacks for us upon checkin. Everything was clean, plenty of laundry soap, lots of fluffy towels and a very comfortable bed. Plenty of natural light with the skylights throughout (bring a sleep mask during the summer otherwise the light will wake you up at 5am!) and a nice deck to have your morning coffee. North Queen Anne is a quiet safe neighborhood close to Fremont Bridge and Seattle Pacific University. WiFi was also super fast. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
— Jane Cho-Smith
Very beautiful house, comfortable beds and luxury showers and tub. Loved the hot tub and game room and views. It was a short walk down the road to the ocean. You could not cut straight across though because of private property. Not a huge deal just something to be aware of. Sand Toys and camping chairs available for the beach but no beach towels. For food, stop by Bennett’s fish shack for amazing fish and chips and more! Overall we really enjoyed our stay in Westport and thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
— Stephanie Angele
Most comfortable bed we’ve had in an air bnb! Appreciated the patio and ready to stream Roku.
Walkable to great shops, cafes, etc. Just know there are steep hills! We were fine, but some folks might have a harder time. There were usually Lime scooters and bikes around which made it easier for going to get groceries.
— Laurie Mills
Spectacular view of Puget Sound, mountain, nearby Islands from interior of cabin and on very nice deck, but NOT on ocean. In our mind, perhaps more interesting than the Pacific Ocean. Absolutely beautiful wood interior cabin. Peaceful and private. Excellent yoga retreat. Short walk to private beach, great place to put in kayaks, etc., great low tide walking beach, not ADA, with a down hill approach and a few stairs. Cabin is well appointed with everything one might need, including fine quality kitchenware. Very clean. Centrally located on Whidbey, with multiple recreation areas nearby, as well as local history to explore. An abundance of shops in Langley, Coupeville, etc. An active local arts scene. Beds were ok. More than we anticipated paying, but prop manager allowed three night minimum stay, rather than five. We would return.
— Ruth Milroy
I had a great stay overall for the Fourth of July weekend. The house was very picturesque with a dreamy view—it’s definitely a Pinterest house come to life. There was a little hiccup with a small maintenance issue, but the management took proactive action to address it and was prompt to respond. I would definitely come back!
— Emily Liao
This place was perfect for our large family just passing through. It was ready for us despite us booking it the day of. It was huge & so spaced out. The area was peaceful and we enjoyed not having hardly any neighbors in sight. The only negative was the hot water did not come on in a couple of the showers, but other than that it was a perfect place for us & I would recommend it to anyone potentially interested!
— Andrew Curl
Recreation is awesome to work with and we would book with them again. They were communicating before, during and after our stay. We really appreciated the prompt response to any questions we had. The house is wonderful! The kitchen is just the right size and equipped with everything we needed. Everything was clean and spotless throughout the house including the floors, counters, bathrooms and all of the beds. Love the location it’s walking distance to breweries, restaurants, grocery stores, parks and trails. After exploring the area, the deck and fully fenced yard were great to hang out at and wave at the friendly neighbors. We would book this place again and hope to be back in the near future.
— Sarah Healy
Our stay at St. Claire was excellent. This was a hub for a few of us to run around on the bourbon trail, and it couldn’t have been much better. Frankfort was a great place to be, with easy access to distilleries in the area. Access to the speakeasy downstairs exceeded our expectations, was a super cool spot. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the beds were some of the most comfortable in any AirBnB I’ve stayed in. Communication from management leading up to and during our stay was excellent.
100% recommend staying here if you are looking for something in Frankfort. Cheers!
— Mike Roberts
Had a wonderful stay at St Clair for my bachelorette weekend. It was the perfect spot for exploring downtown.
There were a lot of cute shops and restaurants nearby!
The tavern under the hotel was a great vibe and the bartender, Sheree was delightful & kind. We truly enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
One downfall is the parking garage is across the street, so pack light so you don’t have to make multiple trips! There is some parking out front but it was blocked off upon our arrival for a downtown block party! This was fun to explore as well.
— Gillian Downs
My stay in Seattle was truly beautiful. The accommodations were comfortable, and both the amenities and location were ideal—everything you’d want for a relaxing visit.
The only small challenge was the driveway—it’s a bit tight and steep for a larger car, which felt a little intimidating at first. Fortunately, parking at the top of the driveway solved the issue easily and made coming and going much more manageable.
While the check-in process was smooth overall, the check-in time was on the later side compared to most Airbnbs I’ve stayed in, and the check-out was a bit early. When traveling, you naturally hope for a little flexibility with arrival and departure, especially after a long journey. It’s a small detail, but when a property is managed by a larger operation rather than a private host, you can feel that difference.
That said, the staff were incredibly responsive and helpful—they even assisted in locating an item I accidentally left behind. I’d definitely recommend
— Eve Flaglore Kelly
This home was so comfortable, peaceful, and welcoming! Our stay was magical… beautiful country landscapes, quiet, lovely sunsets over the pastures and pond outside the large front windows. The home itself was very clean and bright, with the bedrooms and accompanying baths spread out throughout the two stories. Our family of eight had enough room to gather for fun, also to settle in for some quiet time if desired.
Recreation is TRULY the best host I have encountered. They had the perfect blend of proactive communication, and respect for our family time. They were personable and interactive, and responded quickly to the few times we had questions or needed clarifications. It may sound silly, but it felt like we were interacting with friends!
Staying at this home was a wonderful touch of country life (but only 10 minutes from town). Our family will remember our visit fondly, and we hope to return in the near future to enjoy the autumn leaves. A wonderful place to stay!
— Kym Nilsen
Really nice little cabin for a boys weekend getaway. The game room and xbox were big hits. This is how an airbnb should be. all soaps provided. had some toothbrushes and other toiletries provided. plenty of towels, and when something broke they were immediately on it. Best experience i’ve ever had host/house wise
— Logan Burket
The location is amazing, right in the heart of historic downtown Frankfort. A great home base for the bourbon trail. Very walkable, great food, drink and shopping options fill the neighborhood. The hosts were very responsive and proactive, the beds were very comfortable, and the shower is wonderful. We can’t wait to come back!
— Gregory Wilda
Really enjoyed the unit and the location. Right in the middle of downtown Frankfort in a safe code only building. The unit appeared new and had everything we needed. I have several more work trips coming up and will certainly look at staying again. Downtown area is lively and walkable to many places to eat and bars.
— Bryan Holloway
Great place for me and my family to stay! We loved being in a residential neighborhood and all our activities were in a short driving distance.
FYI that the driveway/entrance is off a side street and is easy to miss since you can’t see the house from the main street. Once we found the place though it was very easy to get in.
— Sarah Voiselle
The St. Clair must be the best spot to stay and fully enjoy downtown and surrounding Frankfort. You will be directly part of the town but able to disappear upstairs and enjoy your respite. The rooms are comfortable and the quality beds specifically will help you recharge. You will have all the appliances you need to feel like you are at home while stepping out to experience fantastic dining from coffee to fine Italian cuisine. The staff was prompt to communicate when we needed information. You will be able to get in and check out without any formal process. We found this gem and expect to return when we are back this way. If this place is open and you are passing through, you need to book it and experience the vibes.
— Micah Taylor
Our family loved our stay at the St Clair. The two bedroom suite set up was perfect and had nice space the entire family. The hotel had an attached lounge/restaurant with a cool speakeasy set up that was fun to check out. The host is very responsive and got back to us within minutes when we had questions. Conveniently located near Buffalo Trace, Castle and Key and Woodford if checking out Bourbon Trail. Less than an hour from Louisville with lots to do for kids and adults. We had a blast in Kentucky and St Clair was a great spot to spend our vacation. Highly recommend!
— Ryan Schrank
Fantastic stay! Felt like a home and not a rental – tons of amenities, fully (extra) furnished, and comfortable. Tons of space and perfect for a family with kids (including books, games, toys inside and outside, little nooks, blankets, etc)
It was awesome to have a fully stocked kitchen, backyard and patio with a grill, laundry downstairs, fast wifi, a desk space, and AC (which is not always common in Seattle)
Location is prime for getting around Fremont, Ballard, Wallingford, Lake Union, etc. Parking was easy (typically within a block of the house) and the neighborhood is quiet. Walkable to many restaurants and grocery stores but you’ll get your heart rate up as it’s on a steep hill (which makes for amazing views! Hot tip – walk a block or so north and find the “common chairs” to watch the epic sunsets!)
Host is proactive with communication and super responsive. It’s a bit pricey compared to other units but it was totally worth it. 5 stars and would stay again
— Rob Braby
Positive:
Everything was fresh and clean, and all the appliances were flawless. Great shower. Loved the fact that you had a diaper genie and a changing table even though WE didn’t need it. Great access to Ballard, Greenwood, Woodland Park Zoo.
Negative:
The little deck/patio in the small backyard felt a little too confining due to the grass being a bit overgrown. We had a disconnect on getting the entry code in advance, but the booking entity was available by phone and got it taken care of in seconds.
— Sally Hardgrove
Overall pleasant. Luxury and Beach in the title are stretched opinions unfortunately. There needs significant updates for the furniture inside and out to gain the nomenclature. A few things would’ve been gracious heads up before booking, no cushions on the porch furniture (meant to have cushions) made it tough to really soak in the purpose for being here – relax outside staring at the water / Mountain View, the driveway is tough if not backing down, the neighbors are close and one has young kids and a playground where they practice screaming. Besides the remarks, the MCM home combined with breath taking views, watching Deer pass through, eagles fish, and birds sing make this a great spot within 15 min to my favorite waterside town in WA, Langley.
— Paul Grover
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The home was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The location was peaceful and quie .The host was responsive, friendly, and made check-in and check-out easy.
We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for a great experience!
— Ahmed Alhaddar
Positive:
The staff! They were incredibly helpful and responsive.
Also, everything was new and working well (the shower in particular, appreciated the water pressure too).
Also, for exploring the historic part of Philly, it’s very very well located.
Negative:
It has a clean, minimalist look, so if you prefer an antique-y, warm decor, it may not be for you. But convenience wise, it was perfect
— Hyun Joo Yeu
Positive:
Really a nice clean place that offered same rates as a hotel but much nicer. 2 bedrooms was sweet. The bathroom was a nice size and not cramped. Living room and kitchen were a bonus. The staff was extremely helpful and very responsive to any questions. I will definitely stay here again when I next travel to Frankfort for a few days. Thanks for making my trip enjoyable.
— Marty Flis
Positive:
Smack in the center of downtown Frankfort, KY. Within walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops and a short drive to Buffalo Trace Distillery and others. There was covered parking right across the street that was included in the fee. The room and linens were clean and the space was comfortable. We have already decided to book a room at the St. Clair on our next visit to Frankfort.
Negative:
The A/C (minisplit) didn’t cool the room down as much as we would have liked. A fan to circulate the air would have been nice.
— Antoinette Taitt
Beautiful designer home near the cascades! Every detail of this place is so thoughtful, and the kitchen gadgetry and dishware was truly high end – this doesn’t feel at all like a typical rental! The bedding is comfortable and the shower upstairs is awesome. We loved our stay and would come again.
— Rachel Semmons
Positive:
Beautifully-designed rooms. Spacious main room.
Negative:
The location is the best and worst thing. It is in the center of historic Frankfort which becomes the heart of the party in Friday town concert nights. There is a reason for the white noise machines in the bedrooms.
— Scarlett Saavedra
Positive:
The location was right in the middle of the walking streets /downtown of Frankfort. Parking across the street very easy.
The room itself was great-old brick walls, funky fixtures and a view to an old-school theatre/marquee across the St.
Even got a text while there asking if our car was the one with keys left in it in the garage-soo personal!
Negative:
The ‘speakeasy’ access downstairs was cool but prices were outrageous and we were never given a menu/price list – just a recommendation. Ask for menu card before ordering.
