Fantastic home for large groups. 12 of us did the bourbon trail over five days. Patio was nice for gathering outside after a long day. Centrally located to the bourbon trail. 20 minutes from downtown Louisville. Owners were great to communicate with. House was clean and as described.

This house has lots of room for large gatherings. We were here for a graduation and could accommodate all of our guest from several different states. The only downfall for our group is that we had a handicap guest and the house is not wheelchair accessible (it was built in the 1800s so the doorways are narrow) but that didn’t deter us from having an amazing weekend.

The property was a perfect fit for our group of 8 guys in town for Bourbon & Beyond - it was a bit off the beaten track but great for relaxing and reconnecting for a group of 65 year old high school buddies.

We brought a large group to a conference in Louisville and it was perfect to have all of us stay together. It was a historic house, full of charm. Only negative was the warm water ran out quickly with so many people.

Thunder over Louisville family weekend

We needed a property with both indoor and outdoor space to hold our group of 13. This place was perfect! They were responsive to my revisit questions, the checkin and out process was easy and the home was amazing! We hope to book it again next year.
