Maceo整套民居1室0床1.0卫可住2人 · GrandaddyCarlton's1938DXServiceStation
In 1938 my Grandfather - Hawes Carlton built this small building AND a Sears & Roebuck house on a lot in Maceo. This building was used as a DX service station all through World War II and until 1949. The station was going to be demolished and replaced by a Dollar General Store in 2022. But, my brother was able to move it a few blocks away and I spent a year repurposing it as a modern one bedroom house. I believe my grandparents would love the transition ! A small house.... but perfect for two ! The living room and kitchen are situated in the original DX service station space. A spacious bedroom, bathroom and utiity room have been added. The bedroom can be made into one king size bed OR two twin beds. The house is across the road from a railroad track but the trains run infrequently. We are close to Owensboro and Holiday World. A "service station" theme can be found throughout the house !

I was attending a tradeshow in Owensboro and chose to stay here rather then the host hotel due to its history and more rural location. I was delighted when I entered the house and found it to be everything I had hoped for. I like staying in places that had a bit of history to it and this place delivered. I will definitely use this place again during my travels.
My girlfriend and I had a wonderful stay. Susan communicated in a timely manner and I had no problem getting into the rental. The rental was clean and had character. I quickly felt at home and enjoyed the peace and quiet of being out in the country. I highly recommend this rental and will look to stay here again if I'm in the area and in need of a place.
I received a call late afternoon Feb 5th, 2023, informing me my uncle (my mother's brother) who resides in Owensboro, KY, had been taken by ambulance to the Owensboro Health Regional Hospital and admitted to the ICU. I (and my 73 y/o mother & father) live two (2) hours away. Upon our arrival that evening, we learned the severity of my uncle's condition. Mother wanted to stay with him or at least be nearby every day during this critical time so I immediately began researching suitable accommodations in the area in close proximity to the hospital. This is how I discovered this gem!!!! I wanted mother to feel safe and "at home". This place was PERFECT!!! She was only 10 minutes from the hospital and it was so easy to find! Susan was such a wonderful host - so responsive and caring - making certain mother was comfortable. Mother enjoyed reading about the history of "Grandaddy Carlton's Station" and stated she would enjoy staying again when back in town. I highly recommend!!
Five stars What a gem! This is a comfortable, spacious, well-appointed and private place to stay while in Maceo or Owensboro. The accommodations are thoughtful and every detail was considered. This would be comfortable for just a night or a longer stay. We will definitely stay again!
The station/house is adorable and very comfortable. It's quite roomy, the furniture is comfortable, the kitchen is fully stocked and the laundry room came in very handy! We've already booked another stay for our next visit to Maceo!

Jim and I retired several years ago after living abroad for over 30 years. We have traveled extensively and enjoyed staying with families on four continents. We decided it was so much fun staying with families that we would like to become hosts ourselves! We now have several homes available …. Three in the Maceo community and one in Florida. Each is unique …we hope you will enjoy staying with us!
