Buechel Cabin | Captain's Cabin Bed & Breakfast: Bourbon Trail, History & Romance

1 Bedroom Cabin in Buechel, Louisville

Enjoy your own log cabin on a wooded hillside overlooking a lake as you start on the bourbon trail, head to the races or visit great museums. It's been the location for four movies, including Lifetime, as well as several commercials! Period furnishings and modern conveniences make this an unforgettable retreat. A massive stone fireplace creates a quiet ambiance. Tasteful antiques appoint the cabin for a step back in time.
Captain's Cabin offers a special one-of-a-kind experience surrounded by history and luxury simultaneously. You will enjoy your own full kitchen, fully equipped and stocked with spices and supplies. The bath has been lovingly renovated while retaining the clawfoot tub. Enjoy a long soak with hand-crafted scrubs and soaps. There is no shower! You are surrounded in comfort from the ultra soft sheets, luxurious robes, and Sleep Number bed to the gourmet hot breakfast delivered to your door every weekend morning. Continental breakfast is provided on weekdays. (We promise you won't go hungry!) Join us for a Cooking With Bourbon Dinner Experience on weekends. Sip wine by the fireplace, read on the back porch swings or enjoy the wildlife visiting the lake from the front porch. Only 17 minutes from downtown Louisville, you are surrounded by 8 acres of woods and wildlife. Take a walk along the lake, hike through the woods and discover the waterfall. Take a canoe ride or go wading in the smooth limestone creek. Warm up by the firepit and roast marshmallows or use the grill to make your favorite dinner. Play golf or disc golf on the adjacent public courses. Captain's Cabin was featured in the April 2015 issue of Country's Best Cabins magazine, 2015 September issue of Style Blueprint magazine and April 2016 Home of the Week in Courier Journal.
Captain's Cabin is a great place to start your Bourbon Trail adventure, experience one of the Top Foodie Cities, visit the Ark and Creation Museum, bet on the ponies at Churchill Downs or visit Louisville's notable museums, including Slugger Baseball Museum, Ali Center and Frasier History Museum. But many people come here just to relax and get away from it all!

Mia M. Mar 18, 2025 01:33:24 AM

Summary: Such a cool and relaxing place to spend a few days! We don't like to overschedule our getaways so having a clean, cozy and interesting place to stay is always a priority so that we can simply relax! This was perfect for us. Close enough to bourbon tours and delightful hosts. Highly recommend!

Summary: Had a great weekend at Captain's cabin. we immediately started a fire in the fireplace and enjoyed the quiet popping and warmth of the fire all weekend. Tammy's breakfasts are outstanding. Found some fun things to do in town when we finally pealed ourselves from the cabin.

Marita G. Oct 29, 2024 03:10:03 AM

Summary: This was the perfect place for a fall getaway. It was peaceful and felt isolated, even though everything you need or want was a short drive. The cabin is spectacular and the hosts are outstanding. I hope we can return!

Adina U. Oct 23, 2024 08:12:15 AM

Summary: The cabin was gorgeous with lots of amazing antiques and memorabilia. The hosts were sweet and doting, leaving us lots of treats and things. They do live RIGHT next door, almost on top of the cabin, which could be a negative if you are wanting more privacy or a more remote location. We loved having a fireplace we could actually use (many places don't let you build a fire). So relaxing! Having a Sleep Number bed was a huge plus. All in all, it was homey and comfortable. We enjoyed the beauty of the lake, creek, and fall foliage. of little treats and things.

Amy C. Oct 3, 2024 10:06:53 AM
