Beautiful cottage with everything we needed for our long weekend. Not at all far from Bourbon & Beyond festival, and a peaceful, quiet refuge from the crowds at the end of long, peopley days. Bonus was that we did not realize there was a washer/dryer. Great communication from host, even late at night. We will tuck this one away for future Louisville visits!

Overnight trip to Louisville

We have stayed at this location a few times before. It is wonderful, out of the way, but very close at the same time. The house is perfect. The space, the comfort, the bed, and the overall experience is a 10 every time.

Experiencing bourbon culture in Louisville

Everything about this property is absolutely perfect! My husband and I stayed here for two nights while we explored Louisville's numerous bourbon distilleries. The cottage is extremely well maintained. The cottage is located in a beautiful and peaceful neighborhood minutes from downtown. The serene landscape surrounding the cottage is welcoming and relaxing. The interior is beautifully decorated and extremely clean. The kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom are well stocked with supplies and comfortable linens. The owners provided everything that was needed for a stress free and relaxing stay. Our only regret is not booking this property for more nights. We will definitely book this property again in the future!

I travel to Louisville often for work and to visit family and friends, and this trip coincided with a big trade show — every hotel in town was booked. I was lucky to find this beautiful cottage, and it completely exceeded my expectations. It’s truly the nicest VRBO I’ve ever stayed in! From the convenient location to the spotless cleanliness, every detail was perfect. Diane thought of everything — the amenities made it feel just like home. I’ll absolutely be booking this amazing cottage again the next time I’m in town. Thank you, Diane, for a wonderful stay!

Great restaurants in each direction within a 10-15 minute drive. Host was great. Very responsive throughout booking and checkin process. We will stay here again if at all possible.
