The Hosts

Meet Your Hosts, Jim & Gina Hagan


First, let us say.. welcome to our home! We have spent the last year remodeling this historic home and it has truly been a labor of love. We are both from Bardstown and love the friendly vibe that downtown has to offer.

Eventually we plan on moving into this house (that explains all the fantastic details!), but for now, we want to share it with you.

If you have any questions about the HayJac House, or about Bardstown in general, don't hesitate to ask. We look forward to your stay!

"Jim & Gina's home is everything the reviews reflect! As so many others have stated - the luxurious touches everywhere are outstanding! The spaces are designed elegantly yet with comfort in mind. The touches include items you realize how much you miss in most Air BnB homes like a lemon juicer, cutting boards, baggies, laundry supplies, towel racks that are gorgeous, well-placed toothpaste and hair spray in each bathroom, lovely bath supplies, enough thick luscious towels to feel like you are in a 5-star penthouse hotel...and the details keep going! Fantastic glassware of any kind for your drink of choice, heated master bathroom floor, the master bathroom shower had a dozen jets on it and the claw foot tub was an especially nice touch. The exterior camera system is the 'right' way to do cameras at an Air BnB - where they actually showed - you, the guest - what was happening outside vs. broadcasting to an unknown audience outside of the home (with no idea what the cameras are actually observing). The kitchen, master bedroom, closet and bathroom were so inspirationally designed that we took notes for our own remodel! Major bonus for us was an absolutely fantastic brewery, Scout and Scholar, literally shares the backyard fence with the home and we LOVED it. We are been snobs and this place was true quality - from the food, beer and service and, of course, proximity. This home was like moving right into a beautiful home designed by a professional interior designer. Everything is walkable and Bardstown is charming and wonderful. we will absolutely be back!"

"You may consider my title to be "over the top." But I don't think so. First, the owners spared no time, effort, or expense in renovating this vintage jewel in what was recently voted "The Most Beautiful Small Town in America." The craftsmanship and decor are exquisite. The high-end kitchen furnishings are beautifully matched and in excellent condition. The bed linens are very pretty and comfortable. Bath towels are thick and plentiful. And your MaMa would give HayJac House an A+ for cleanliness. Beyond the beauty and comfort of the accommodations, Bardstown and the surrounding area are chock full of museums, fine and fun restaurants, distillery tours, and really cute shops, many within an easy walk from the house. I have no problem classifying HayJac House as the Ritz Carlton of small vacation rentals. If you think that's too "over the top," may I suggest you come see for yourself...then decide."


"The HayJac House is just terrific. The home’s decor and amenities are impeccable. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and well appointed. The kitchen is bright and modern and all of the seating throughout is tasteful and comfortable. The location is excellent. Shopping, restaurants and even a charming bakery are an easy walk. If you’re planning a trip to the Bourbon Trail, put HayJac House and Bardstown on your list!"

"Perfect Location in a Dream Home! The HayJac House is absolutely a dream! The owners have done an amazing job in updating and furnishing this home with high end fixtures, bedding, and decor. We loved our stay! Everything was amazing, relaxing, and comfortable. It truly is the perfect location as we were able to walk a block or two to many restaurants and attractions. I would give our stay 10 stars if possible!"
