Beautiful cottage with everything we needed for our long weekend. Not at all far from Bourbon & Beyond festival, and a peaceful, quiet refuge from the crowds at the end of long, peopley days. Bonus was that we did not realize there was a washer/dryer. Great communication from host, even late at night. We will tuck this one away for future Louisville visits!

Perfect retreat for a couple. Perfect location to see Louisville.

The cottage was furnished beautifully and completely. The River Road location is lovely and very convenient to all parts of Louisville. Great restaurants in each direction within a 10-15 minute drive. Host was great. Very responsive throughout booking and checkin process. We will stay here again if at all possible.

Beautiful, Quiet and Cozy

This place is a little gem. It was 5 minutes from downtown but just far enough out that it was quiet and peaceful. The property was beautiful and just as described. As an added bonus we met a beautiful white Lab who was very friendly and welcoming as well. She was precious and so is this quaint little cottage. Highly recommended

Experiencing bourbon culture in Louisville

Everything about this property is absolutely perfect! My husband and I stayed here for two nights while we explored Louisville's numerous bourbon distilleries. The cottage is extremely well maintained. The cottage is located in a beautiful and peaceful neighborhood minutes from downtown. The serene landscape surrounding the cottage is welcoming and relaxing. The interior is beautifully decorated and extremely clean. The kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom are well stocked with supplies and comfortable linens. The owners provided everything that was needed for a stress free and relaxing stay. Our only regret is not booking this property for more nights. We will definitely book this property again in the future!
