Open 4BR/2BA • Sleeps 8 • Huge Kitchen, Covered Deck & Easy Highway Access

PROPERTY OVERVIEW:

Open 4BR/2BA home that sleeps 8 with a huge kitchen, covered deck, and easy highway access. Perfect for families, groups of friends, or work trips, this spacious retreat offers an open layout, a large dining table for meals and games, and a big backyard for gatherings. Guests love the balance of togetherness and privacy in a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood close to Louisville’s top attractions.

WHAT GUESTS LOVE (FROM REVIEWS):

** Responsive & kind hosts: Guests consistently praise Lynn & Perry for being “super responsive and kind,” with “exceptional communication before and during travel.”

** Spacious & well-kept home: Families and groups say the layout “worked out great for our group,” with “plenty of room for 4 couples” and space to spread out while still gathering together.

** Clean & comfortable: Reviews highlight “spotless,” “well-kept,” and “exactly as described,” with cozy bedrooms and comfortable beds.

** Well-stocked kitchen: Guests love the “well-equipped kitchen,” noting thoughtful extras like coffee and spices that made settling in easy.

** Peaceful neighborhood: Described as a “quiet, safe neighborhood with sidewalks and lovely homes,” yet still “convenient to everything” — coffee, groceries, and dining within walking distance, and downtown or distilleries just a short drive.

** Perfect for events & getaways: Whether in town for the Kentucky Derby, Bourbon Trail, sports tournaments, or family celebrations, guests call this the “perfect location” for both convenience and relaxation.

** Relaxing outdoor spaces: The “back porch was great to sit out and relax,” and many enjoyed gathering on the covered deck or using the large backyard.

The house was in a very well kept neighborhood and was conveniently located near major hi ways and thoroughfares. House was neat and clean and the landscaping was maintained. I gave it a 4 star on the first question only because of the stairs. They are a little steep, but it is a home that was probably built in the 60’s. Lynn and Paul were great hosts!

Our group of 5 educators say “thank you” for your clean, safe and well equipped home in a wonderfully located neighborhood. We were able to attend our conference during the day and have a restful place to return to for fellowship and restorative sleep in the evening. The host was attentive to our questions before and during travel as we navigated the city. After our 9 hour drive into Louisville we were also grateful for a neighborhood where we could walk, talk and even dine at a local restaurant around the corner from the home. Thank you for your hospitality.

Our stay was GREAT!!!

The location of this home was great!!! It is far enough away from the big city that you didn't feel you were staying downtown, but close enough that the travel to everything we wanted to do in Louisville was within a 10-minute drive. The neighborhood is quiet, and the neighbors were friendly. There are stores, coffee shops, and restaurants nearby. The house is exactly as it appears on the listing, and the property managers were very kind and available, without being overbearing. We would definitely stay here again, if we are in the area!!!

Cozy, Quiet, and Convenient

This place was perfect for our trip to the Bourbon Trail! It’s in a quiet, safe neighborhood just outside of Louisville, and we loved how peaceful it felt after a day of touring. There’s a great little coffee shop and a grocery store both within walking distance, which made mornings super easy.The home was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. I loved that she had coffee we could use for our first day, we landed close to midnight so it was much appreciated! The hosts were amazing—super friendly, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions we had. You can tell they really care about their guests.If you’re visiting the Bourbon Trail or just looking for a relaxing stay near Louisville, KY, I highly recommend this spot. Would definitely stay here again!

Excellent location

We had a wonderful time on the bourbon trail! Our house was a fantastic choice and a great location! We were close enough to Louisville to drive downtown in 10 minutes and close enough to all the other bourbon distilleries to visit. Our house was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed and Lynn kept in touch for anything else we may have needed! I would recommend this house to anyone coming down to hit the bourbon trail! You won't be disappointed! Paula

Great Stay – Super Clean and Way Bigger Than It Looks! We had an awesome time here. The house was incredibly clean, the furniture was in great shape, and it felt really well cared for. It’s also way more spacious inside than you’d expect from the outside — plenty of room for all six of us.There were tons of towels, and the hot water never ran out, even with six adult guys showering back to back. Everything was easy and comfortable from start to finish. Would definitely stay here again!

Birthday Trip

I went to Louisville for a birthday trip and stayed at this lovely house. The place was perfectly clean, and spacious for the 5 of us. The back porch was great to sit out and relax and it was perfectly situated not too far from downtown and the distilleries that we visited while we were in Louisville. I would absolutely stay there again if I make another trip to the area.
