About this property

"Beautiful and clean! We enjoyed our stay and it's perfect for a group of friends or family."

“Brandon's place is beautiful and clean! We enjoyed our stay and it's perfect for a group of friends or family. We were in town for the Guitar Festival at the University of Louisville and the location was perfect for our needs."

"Everything was just above and beyond"

“We had an excellent stay at Urban Retreat. Appreciated the cleanliness and the homey atmosphere and loved the decor of this home. It worked well for our family, which included 4 children.

About the host

Hosted by Brandon Winkler

I was born and raised in Louisville and love sharing all that my city has to offer. The Urban Retreat is central to my favorite parts of the city!

Why they chose this property

It's central to so much of what makes Louisville the great city that it is. Easy access to the Bourbon Trail, Bardstown Road and Restaurant Row, Nulu, the YUM! Center, the University of Louisville, Churchill Downs and on and on. Within walking distance or a very short ride/drive of countless bars and restaurants, and much of the above, you won't spend much time commuting.

What makes this property unique

Tastefully designed, and thoughtfully set up for a great experience. There's plenty to do if you don't want to leave the house, but it's so close to so much of what makes Louisville great that you'd be missing out if you didn't explore.
