Great location! It is close to the city, good restaurants and easy accessibility to main highway. The grounds are well kept and beautiful to just take a walk. Peaceful. Beautifully appointed cottage. We certainly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

We stayed at the cottage for a family wedding. The cottage was so conveniently located to the venue that it was an obvious choice. We found the cottage to be lovely and even though it is on the grounds with a main house, it was extremely private and the hosts were great! It is charming and we loved it. If we ever have another event in Louisville, we hope to have the opportunity to stay here again.

Perfect Louisville Getaway

My family and I had a wonderful time at this property unwinding after many miles on the bourbon trail. Communication was spot on regarding the check-in process and we greatly enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely be back when we come back to Louisville!

Overnight stay

It was a cute cottage in a nice area. We were comfortable for our overnight stay. The cottage is older and charming, but did need a little TLC in some areas.
