Charming speakeasy house

The house was great to stay and was plenty big for us. Close enough for us to the downtown area and other areas. Matt and Melissa are great and were able to give us a lot of recommendations for places to go and things to do. Would highly recommend staying here for anyone looking to stay in the area.

Great Location and Gathering Places

The house is decorated so nicely with lots of areas to gather. The location is fantastic with it being only a couple of miles from all of the downtown distilleries, restaurants and shopping. The owner was also very responsive. My husband and I stayed with our grown children and we loved hanging out in the backyard to watch the fireflies. Highly recommend this house!

What an amazing property!

We had an amazing time! Not only was Matt extremely communicative, we accidentally locked ourselves out twice. He was there within 10 minutes to save the day. The property was clean and up to date and the beds were comfortable. I cannot wait to return to this property!

Wonderful !

We had 4 couples together for a weekend getaway to attend Keeneland and do the Bourbon Trail. And we had the opportunity to have the Arts fair at the same time. House is very nice, kitchen well stocked, fire pit was perfect at night. The two TVs were great to watch two different games. Loved it!!

70th Birthday Celebration Siblings Only!

Well maintained home and great location to Whiskey Row and Churchill Downs! Our Host was prompt to reply and offered many helpful recommendations for Distillery tours and tastings, as well as favorite restaurants to visit! We thoroughly enjoyed our early morning coffee in the beautiful kitchen and late night movies in the front room! Also, special thanks to our Hosts for the thoughtful touches from fresh flowers to yummy oatmeal raisin cookies! My siblings and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay!❤️

Great Place to Stay While in Louisville!

My friends and I voted to stay here from the VRBO website. We made the right choice! Very clean, and plenty of room for all of us. Matthew had all amenities needed for our stay and the communication was great. He gave us suggestions for restaurants. ( Holy Grale and Jack Frys. Both great choices) But the main reason we came down was for the Bourbon Trail. We used one of the recommended tours to tour the Bardstown distilleries that was reviewed by one of the past customers. All in all, this was a great place to stay!

A group of 8 of us went to the Bourbon and Beyond Festival and rented this VRBO for 5 nights. The host, Matt, was extremely accomodating, communicative, and helpful to us. We absolutely loved the backyard area and the ease of cooking in the kitchen and grilling. We all had a wonderful time and I would choose this home were I to visit Louisville again.

Fun getaway

Enjoyed everything about this beautiful property. Snow came in when we were supposed to check in and Matt made sure to communicate with us on check in. Extra blankets and towels, but my favorite part is that we had a private chef come in to the beautiful kitchen and cook us an amazing supper! Highly recommend
