About the host
Hosted by Leslie
I love introducing our city to visitors, whether they're from out of town or out of the country. We are happy to recommend popular dining and tourist destinations to our guests, answer questions about the area, or help guests find resources for services that may enhance their visit. We love to travel ourselves, so we understand and appreciate the adventure of exploring new places or even returning to old favorites.
Why they chose this property
Perfect as your Derby or Bourbon-Tour headquarters with family and friends, or to relax while on your business trip. This is a Victorian home in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood of tree-lined streets with sidewalks and historic homes side-by-side on every block, just around the corner from one of the most vibrant and popular entertainment districts in Louisville and very close to beautiful Cherokee Park. The house needed a lot of renovation to bring it up to guest-ready, but it was a labor of love...and we love sharing it!
What makes this property unique
A fantastic home with private seasonal swimming pool in a very quiet and walkable neighborhood 2 blocks from the Bardstown Road Strip and minutes from everything you'd want to see or do in Louisville. Great location with easy access to freeways, Downtown, Churchill Downs, EXPO Center, and museums. Explore from here!
