Beautiful house in convenient location. Excellent overall.

We are traveling with another couple and spent 3 nights in Louisville at this gem. Very well appointed, clean and exactly as advertised. Very roomy and comfortable home-away-from-home. Very easy setup and communications and parking our rental car out front was never a problem at all. Communication with the owner was prompt, even when we did something stupid and needed some assistance.

Another great stay in Louisville

This was our second stay at this VRBO. Spent lots of time grilling and sitting in the backyard. When we ran out of gas in the grill, Karen promptly had tank replaced. Thank you! Walked three blocks to Paristown for live outdoor, free music twice. Local art fair also happening. Look forward to spending time again in this VRBO. FYI, Steps required to enter VRBO.

Family from MN and MI joined Louisville family for a fantastic four-day stay at this two-level, two full living quarters VRBO. Very quick responses by the hosts. The location is perfect for walking to Paristown Christmas Market, Wiltshire bakery, and many restaurants on Bardstown Road. Nice cooking appliances in the kitchen and gas grill in a welcoming backyard. Will happily return.

Can’t wait to go back to Louisville

Karen & Ken’s place was positively perfect! We had such a great time exploring Louisville for 4 days and were so happy going ‘home’ to such a comfy place each night. We cooked breakfast in the well equipped kitchen one morning - that was a lil bonus! Hopefully next time we visit it will be a bit warmer as we didn’t get to take advantage of the great backyard!

Great Location

The home was wonderful. Very clean, comfortable and updated. There are actually two separate apartments and kitchens which was great when you have some early and some late risers. The beds and sofa bed were very comfortable. We enjoyed sitting out back on the patio. The location is in a quiet, safe neighborhood. There are restaurants that you can walk to in 5 minutes. Quick Uber to Bardstown and downtown. Highly recommend this home!
