Fantastic stay for 5 couples celebrating a 50th birthday. We LOVED the house. We cooked breakfast everyday, made steaks for dinner one night and played games in the living room in the evenings. It was perfect!
Great home with lots of space. Bedrooms are large and plenty of room to relax. Recent snow had been cleared off the driveway for good access. The house had everything we needed for our stay.
It was a perfect house. Huge and well decorated. It's in a great location to plenty of shops and restaurants. The host, Kristen, was very responsive! Highly recommend this house for any group, small or large!
Host and Home was amazing! Plenty of room for all of us, it was great!Wasn’t as close walking distance as I thought to some of the places around the home but we had our cars so didn’t really impact our stay.Would definitely recommend!
Finished a five day trip to Lexington and Louisville with a two night stay at this fantastic house. It was perfect for our group of ten friends. Super clean and well appointed! We had a great time!
In short- this property is pretty awesome. Host was super responsive and in general, one of the best. If you want a neat place to stay and decent proximity to a lot of items, check this house out.
We had a great time! Beautiful spot! Nice home! There is a beautiful park and neighborhood for nice walks but no gym just fyi. The beds were comfy too! It was very nice! Thank you Kristen and Eric!!
We loved this house! We came with 5 couples and the spacious house had plenty of room and everyone got their own bathroom. It is newly remolded and beautifully decorated. We all raved about it. It’s in a cute neighborhood and in walking distance to fun restaurants. We had a wonderful stay!
We had 7 couples stay here and it was perfect! The house is gorgeous, spacious and clean. It also had everything we needed. The location was great. Easy to get to downtown, the airport and Lexington for bourbon tours. Could walk to great restaurants. Eric was a wonderful host and super helpful. We would all stay here again and our group is not easy to please lol!
We had 5 middle aged couples stay for the Louisville experience and it was wonderful. The property was terrific... the house is in a safe neighborhood and was very comfortable for 5 couples. it was walking distance to church, restaurants and a short drive to downtown. It was a perfect spot for us and we would definitely stay here again.
Our gang of six couples gathered here for the Bourbon trail. We are well into our sixties and found the house to be very comfortable. Beautiful historic mansion with very comfortable furnishings. The kitchen was well appointed and we put the coffee makers to work! Kristen was very responsive to questions. The location was convenient for dining, downtown, the highway and the airport.
We couldn't have asked for a more perfect home to stay in during a recent extended weekend trip. Everything about the home is great--the location is walkable to restaurants, a brewery and coffee; the primary kitchen is fully outfitted; the beds are plentiful and comfortable; several big spaces for a group to hang out; and lots of onsite parking. On top of all that, it was pristine and an quick and easy check-in and check-out process. Worth every penny and I would DEFINITELY stay here again.
I can't say enough good things about this beautiful home. It has been flawlessly renovated with details that fit right into the vintage feel. It feels modern, yet comfortable and authentic. Kristen, the host, worked with us on a couple of special requests. She always responded within minutes, and was very accommodating. The home smelled clean because it is clean, and they don't use any of the chemical air fresheners, which is a huge plus for me.
I've stayed in more than 60 VRBOs in the last few years, and this experience is definitely one of the very best.
Lots of nearby restaurants, and tons of parking rounded out the experience.
You can't go wrong with this magnificent home and delightful host!
This house worked well for our 4 generation family of 12 in town for a family wedding. The beds and furnishings were comfortable and in good condition. We appreciated the coffee machine combo of roast and keurig with coffee. The location is convenient. We were not able to enjoy the "walkability" due to heavy rain over the weekend. We were disappointed in check in. 5pm is late for most rentals, and especially when the rehearsal started at 5. I had asked for early check in or notification when cleaning complete. That did not happen. We had to find another location to dress. I went by the house at 4pm. It was clean and no one was there but access code did not work until 5. When we returned at 10pm, we had to unload in torrential rain. There is ample parking in back but maneuverability is not good. Expanding the parking pad would be helpful.
Very clean house we had a very pleasant day. Communication with the owners was very good. I would definitely recommend this house for anybody wanting to stay in the Louisville area
