Came down with a group of 5 guys to visit the bourbon trail. This home met our needs, including enough comfortable beds for everyone, and a central location to restaurants and bourbon options (tasting rooms & distilleries). The water pressure is not great, no issues for 5 guys, but may take ladies some time to get the shampoo out. We had an issue with our stay, but the host was very responsive. We would stay here again.

Great Stay on the Bourbon Trail

We stayed here as a good central point to take in Louisville and the Bourbon Trail, and the place was a great stay! We had plenty of space for everyone in the house, it was very close to downtown Louisville, and the house was close to everything we needed. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Great Stay

Our family enjoyed the property as we were in town tonight see and visit with family. The house provided a good home base for activities. The location was quiet but still close enough to walk to a bagel place for breakfast or dinner. The garage in back was great for off street parking. Our family enjoyed our stay and would visit here again.

We had an awesome family vacation in Louisville. We were able to easily get to all the sites and this space gave us a perfect home base. Four bedrooms and 2.5 baths made it very comfortable for our group of 6 adults and 2 kids. This house is walking distance to some very nice coffee/bakery shops, restaurants, breweries and more. And short drive to downtown. We loved our time together and would stay here again!
