On the Bourbon Trail The Buffalo Springs Distilling Company got it's start in 1868. It closed and it's warehouses were emptied out by the 1970's. This building is one of the last structures left on the site. This historic building was the main office and gatehouse for visitors to the distillery, so we can offer one bedroom due to the size of the structure. Queen size bed in the bedroom. There’s also a Queen Air Mattress that can be utilized in a pinch for folks that are staying at least a week
