Louisville's Historic Shantyboathouse

In this historic Butchertown neighborhood you'll find many hip restaurants and bars and unique local shops and boutiques. Right around the corner from the Shantyboathouse is shopping in the NuLu district, Quills Coffee, and Butchertown Bakery. Walk to the Louisville City Football Club stadium and the Big Four pedestrian bridge for a stroll over the river to Indiana. It's just six miles from Churchill Downs and a short ride to downtown and some of Louisville and Kentucky’s greatest distilleries.
