***Reviews*** Here is what some of our guest are saying about this home:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Reanna - May
"If this house is available then look NO FURTHER and snag it while you can! Tony and Christine are BEYOND super hosts and this rental was the best experience I’ve had in all my years of short tern rentals.
HOUSE - such a charming old house with character and the original floors and look with all the modern touches. Kitchens well appointed and great to cook in. Beautifully decorated and a wonderful mix of old charm with upgrades. Beds are super comfortable and linens were nice. Gorgeous fenced in yard that was huge and great for dogs! House layout affords a lot of privacy if traveling in groups or couples.
Neighborhood - LOVE LOVE LOVE - really safe and walkable. Great coffee and breakfast places close by and lots of dinner options and bars too. We got up every morning and walked and were OBSESSED with the neighborhood. All of the neighbors are super friendly. Go out and explore, you will love it too!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Nick
"The host was over the top accommodating and would have bent over backwards for us on anything! This place is worth the stay in bourbon country and has old Louisville charm. The backyard is very private and great for yard games. Book this stay!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Kyle
"The house was amazing. Location and amenities were perfect for our group. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Louisville!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Gerry
"This is a great location for Louisville- close to airport, downtown, Cherokee Park, Bardstown Rd, Churchill Downs, Old Louisville, Bourbon trail. We had a large group and the accommodations were perfect! Beds comfortable! Bathrooms and Kitchens updated and beautiful. Anthony was incredibly responsive. Best thing was access to Bardstown Rd and Cherokee Park for exploring and unwinding. Highly recommended"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Justyn
"Great host! My team and I enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to others. We were here for business for the Kentucky Derby and was conveniently located. The house is spacious and has cool unique vibe to it.
Thank you again!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Joly
"What a fun place to stay, you can rent the entire home, (and upper and lower unit or just one.) I had a couple of family members stay for a few nights while I rented this house for two weeks. It was super clean, very comfortable beds, seriously comfortable. It's charming too. It's a hop skip and a jump from Bardstown Road if you want a little more action.

But best of all is Anthony the host. He was johnny on the spot if I needed anything which was not much. He truly made my stay easier and more relaxing. I hope to return."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Kevin T
"We rented the entire house for 10 days! Grandparents located on the first floor, parents on the second and grandchildren/3 children ages 13, 16 & 18 on the third floor. Was a great arraignment regarding space for all ages. Kitchens were gas and very nice to use and clean. 2nd floor kitchen was extra nice with Italian range, hood and dishwasher (super quiet). Color palette in house was well done. Bathrooms were upgraded and had great showers. Our experience with Tony was very good and responsive, we truly enjoyed our time there and in a great area to walk to a gray coffee shop on the corner and restaurants in the area."
