GUEST ACCESS

You have the entire upper unit to yourself: two private bedrooms (1 king, 1 queen), one full bathroom, and a full kitchen.

A private washer and dryer is yours to use during your stay. It's in the basement — go through the back door in the kitchen and down the steps. The basement is shared with the first-floor tenant, who has a separate set of machines; both are labeled, so use the set marked for guests.

PLEASE NOTE: GUESTS WILL BE REQUIRED TO CLIMB SOME STAIRS TO ENTER THE UNIT. NO ELEVATORS.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD

The Highlands is Louisville's most walkable and most talked-about neighborhood — a long stretch of independent restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, record stores and bars along Bardstown Road, with quiet tree-lined residential streets a block off it in either direction. Cherokee Park is nearby.

GETTING AROUND

The neighborhood is walkable, with restaurants, bars and shops within a few blocks. Rentable scooters are available in the area. Lyft and Uber can get you almost anywhere in Louisville for $25 or less at normal rates — expect higher rates during Derby weekend.

THINGS TO KNOW
