The space
Completely remodeled from 2021 - 2024, this 22,000 square feet historical building is centered in the heart of downtown Leitchfield. Our location makes it walkable to boutiques, food, entertainment, the Storehouse Coffee, the Spa on Main & the Historic Jack Thomas House. In 1935, this building housed a restaurant, The Alice Theatre and a 23-room hotel called The Alexander Hotel. Today, this building is still home to The Alexander Hotel, which is now 7 short term rentals, The Alice Theatre which is now an event venue where you can enjoy live entertainment, old movies or rent the space for a special day or event of your own. The old restaurant has been revitalized and is now called Steak & Stone. (Both the Restaurant & Event Venue are set to be open Mid-May 2024).
Each Airbnb has been meticulously curated and designed.

Other things to note
Welcome to The Jackson. In 2021, my husband and I poured our life savings in renovating this amazing historic building. This has been a labor of love for our whole family and our friends. We hope you fall in love with it like we did. The only thing we ask is that if you have any problems or need anything, please call us immediately so we can take care of any issues or concerns. We hope you feel the joy in the details as much as we did putting them together just for you.
Reminder: This property is located above a restaurant and event venue.
