About this property

Come explore Jeffersonville & Louisville- our pool & hot tub are open

Welcome to our Utica Estate guest suite. Please browse through the photos and READ the descriptions underneath them. The private hot tub is available year-round. Perfect for relaxing and de-stressing during your stay. The pool is open May 1 - Oct 1. You can stay in and binge watch movies from our collection of DVD's or your Apple TV app favorites on the 110 inch screen in the theater room. There is so much to do and enjoy at Utica Estate and the surrounding area! You’ll love our home because of the location...close to downtown Louisville & Jeffersonville but tucked away enough for a peaceful, relaxing stay. We are located just minutes from Big Four Station, the popular walking bridge over the Ohio River connecting Jeffersonville, Indiana to Louisville, Kentucky. PLEASE take a few minutes to READ through EACH section of our listing (photos, why this property, unique benefits, house rules, rooms and spaces). It is full of helpful information. There is also a description with each photo to help you get a better idea of the layout.
We are exactly 5 miles from downtown Louisville. The 2nd Street bridge is a toll FREE bridge (a.k.a. US-31). You can't miss it because it was painted bright yellow. It is also the fastest route to downtown Louisville. We are only 5.2 miles from the new east end bridge. That bridge goes to the east end of Louisville and is a toll bridge. If you want to avoid the tolls, the free 2nd street bridge will get you to where to need to go in Louisville.
The rental space, attached garage, pool, & hot tub are completely private.
*This is a smoke free rental. We do not allow smoking on the property inside or out. If you or anyone in your group smokes this is probably not a good fit for you.
** We do not allow early check ins or late check outs so please plan accordingly.
***We do live on the property, upstairs from the guest suite, but nothing is shared. There are separate driveways and entrances, so you won't see us unless you need us.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This place is really beautiful and the pictures reflect how nice everything is. The rooms are really big and the bathroom is spacious. I gave it a three out of five in the cleanliness because while we were there, we saw a little over a dozen bugs all different sizes. A lot of them were dead, but there was a few that we had to chase them down to kill them. We text the owner and she text back asking if we wanted her to bring a bug spray so we can spray which of course we said no that she can spray whenever we leave. The pool was beautiful and clean and the hot tub looked nice, however, we didn’t use it. There’s enough towels for the pool and a lot of floaties that you can use. The kitchen has everything you would use at home, including washer, dryer, dishwasher, two refrigerators and a gas stove. It was a little scary having only one way to come in and out of the apartment. The apartment is in the basement so there’s no windows or other doors but it’s great to sleep in late because it’s so dark. The huge theater size TV was amazing and it has all the apps you can imagine that are free to use. There is an extensive collection of DVDs to watch, books to read and games to play with. The fountain outside was cute but needs to be cleaned. The water was green. Dan, the host was really nice and helped us figuring out how to turn on the projector. We told him we would love to meet Melissa because everybody talks about her in the reviews, but it didn’t happen. It was beautiful place.

We stayed here for Louder Than Life 2025 music festival, so we didn’t spend much time at the property. But it was a nice place to spend the nights, and there was certainly enough things there to cook, eat, stay busy. Our host was very kind, and even sent us some local news snippets once she knew we were going to the festival. Thanks!

This was our third year in a row to enjoy the beautiful accommodations at Utica Estate! Our one-bedroom basement apartment, as always, was impeccably clean, well appointed, and comfortable! We spent four full days in and around a crystal clear private pool that is just one feature of a large and tranquil backyard. This was the perfect getaway for two avid swimmers and readers, thanks to our superior host, Melissa! We will be returning next summer for visit #4 to Utica Estate!

We had a great time at Utica Estate. The pool and hot tub were fantastic, there’s good dining within a few miles, everything in downtown Louisville a short drive. The host was very responsive to texts. The basement apartment is fantastic. Lots of room. Thoughtful to provide games and playing cards if the weather is not cooperating. Overall a great trip!
