Perfect for Jack O’ Lantern Spectacular

My boyfriend and I just needed a place to stay for the night as we were in town to see the Jack O Lantern Spectacular at Iroquois and this was PERFECT! They couldn’t have been nicer and the cabin was very well-stocked. Honestly, we ended up wishing we were staying longer to enjoy the cabin itself. 10 minute Uber from the event. You are very close to their home but we felt we had plenty of privacy. Can’t recommend enough

Great hideaway

We were just looking for a place to spend the night, but found this amazing little cabin filled with wonderful touches. it was quaint, well stocked, relaxing and so well decorated. The fresh eggs and other items left out for a delicious country breakfast were icing on the cake. It was a great place to rest and relax.

Great getaway location

I planned a weekend outing in Louisville for my wife's birthday and booked this place instead of just a hotel room. Getting around Louisville is fast enough that we were never more than fifteen or twenty minutes from any attraction, yet it felt like a cabin in the country, greenery all around, no sirens or traffic noises. Lots of nice little amenities, like chocolate, fresh eggs, a loaf of bread, butter and jelly, juice in the fridge (I was able to fix her a nice breakfast). Everything was clean, there was nothing we would need and didn't have. Bed was comfortable. And my wife loved the chickens. I would definitely book this place again for a future stay in Louisville.

About the host

Hosted by Marquetta Poynter, Jerry Phelps

Host profile image
We are so excited to offer America's Barn to be shared and enjoyed by our guests. It has been our dream for years to be able to share our gorgeous and unique property that we have owned for over 25 years. We hope you find your time with us to be relaxing and rewarding.

Why they chose this property

We love the convenience of this location. We are near ALL areas of interest and/or need: museums, sports venues ,fairgrounds, airport and medical center complex.

What makes this property unique

We are in a VERY convenient location but as you turn in the drive the metropolitan access is left behind and the rural beauty becomes the focus. There is complete privacy as well as the feel of 'country' living.
The beauty of wildlife, fruit trees, and the sounds of chickens help you to feel very removed from the 'city' life.

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
