Katy here – one the the LIY content creators! 👋 My best friend and her husband live in Georgetown, KY, just outside of Lexington! We recently took a trip to visit them, and it inspired me to round up some of the spots we visited and loved along the way! Whether you’re planning a weekend getaway, visiting friends, or just passing through the Bluegrass State, these are a few places worth adding to your list. 💙✨
