Story of Butchertown. Cozy, stylish and a great location.
This house was built in 1867, just two years after the end of the Civil War in Louisville’s original meatpacking district, Butchertown. Butchertown has a rich German history of butchers, brewers, and other notable early American professions. Today, the neighborhood is still home to many historic attractions such as the Thomas Edison House. Our Butchertown Louisville rental is in a prime location, within walking distance to waterfront park, the Lynn Family Stadium, and a 5-10min drive to NuLu, the Yum Center, Downtown Louisville, Kentucky Expo Center, and Churchill Downs. It’s also walkable to many restaurants and bars including Sergio’s World of Beers (Louisville’s original craft beer bar & store), Pizza Lupo, Chik’n & Mi, Enso (Southern inspired Japanese),Vernon Lanes (one of the oldest bowling allies in the US!), Apocalypse Brew Works, The Mellwood Tavern (Fried Chicken on Tu & Th) and many more. Butchertown Market has great shopping at Work the Metal and be sure to tour Bourbon Barrel Foods, an artisan food company known for making small batch soy sauce and other bourbon inspired food products. The Mellwood Art Center and Mellwood Antiques & Interiors is also around the corner. You can also step out the front door and bike or scooter your way to the Butchertown Greenway which takes you directly to the Ohio River, or you can walk your way to the Waterfront Botanical Gardens. There's plenty to do and see! The house is stylish well equipped. Pots, pans, a full line of Bourbon Barrel Foods products! Lush towels, great sheets, and plenty of pillows. King sized bed and a queen sized day bed at opposite end of house.

Host was easy to communicate with & accommodating Location was close to downtown & convenient to Interstate & places of interest. Restaurants nearby. Parking was a little difficult at times. Neighbors were loud. Bed comfortable& shower was great. AC was a little tricky to operate
Location and cleanliness was good. Where we would like to have had a better experience: With check in, we didn’t not hear about check in details until 40 min beforehand. For peace of mind when coming from out of time, hearing from the lister earlier would have been helpful. Especially when we drove by and see a for sale sign. Would have liked a standard working coffee pot.Place smelled musty, needed an air out.Back deck/yard could use a clean up so guests can utilize the area
We were in town to visit our son. Matt’s space was perfect for two, clean, well equipped and walkable to restaurants, shops, tours and tastings, rambles through the city!
Very nice home in a charming neighborhood near a little park. On street parking is weird so we parked at the park parking lot. The house is great, bed is comfortable and supplies are great. Not sure what is going on at the property next door.
Terrific VRBO find! Great location In Butcher town area, very easy to get around. Well stocked house great attention to useful accessories. Newly renovated bathroom terrific shower!! Spacious dining area, comfy furniture. I love to cook & this kitchen had everything needed. Spices, garlic press, excellent pots, pans & baking Pyrex! Thanks for helping make our Christmas visit so pleasant. We baked & had all the traditional family favorites!!
This old historical row house was nicely rehabbed and kept the original charm while providing the comforts of home that we expected. It was a perfect getaway for my husband & me. It's located near the market district with lots to visit and explore, whether walking or driving. Parking is on the street and at times can be a short walk to the front door.
The owner was magnificent!! Matt answered all of our questions. The only reason I gave him a 4 out of 5 stars for communication,was not his fault. The emails sent through VRBO were not delivered in a timely fashion. We happened to leave our boots at the house. Matt had them delivered to us free of charge. Wow!! Over and beyond helpful!!
Yes, we highly recommend this gem in Butchertown!!
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay in Butchertown. Everything that we wanted to do was very close by. The rental had everything we needed. Matt was very responsive and quiet to meet any of our needs that popped up. I would definitely consider staying at this home if we returned.
