About this property

Spacious Louisville riverfront retreat, gorgeous fall view, Bourbon Trail.

Spacious 3200 square foot sparkling clean Ohio riverfront home in upscale area just off major Louisville highway, gorgeous natural view across the river of the wooded hills of Charlestown State Park. Large open concept area and generous deck overlooking the Ohio River, plenty of space for your whole group to mingle, yet ample space to spread out for solitary time. Enjoy housewide wifi and large screen tv in living area, comfy sectional with 4 recliners, tvs in every bedroom.

Common area has a wall of glass with 3 doors opening onto deck, sunken living room, large fully-equipped kitchen, riverfront dining room with seating for 8 plus seating for 4 at the kitchen island, cozy, crackling wood-burning fireplace. Four beautifully decorated bedrooms all have queen beds. One also has a daybed with trundle. One also has a futon, double-high queen aerobed (upon request). All bathrooms have showers, one has shower/tub combo, liquid soap, shampoo, hairdryers, and fresh towels.

The yard has ample space for setting up games. Cornhole, giant Jenga, giant Connect Four, indoor Shuffleboard, foosball and multiple board games/cards are included in rental. There is garage parking for 2 cars and driveway parking for 3-4 additional cars. No street parking is allowed. This is a peaceful get-away-from-it-all place to grill out on the deck as you watch the sun set, or relax with a drink and a good book down on the dock where you may spot a blue heron or hear the evening call of the loon. The dock has a kayak launch pad (bring your own kayaks) and you are welcome to tie your boat at the dock.

Camp Husky is within easy driving distance of multiple bourbon distilleries and breweries, 2 golf courses, 20 minutes to Waterfront Park with the walking bridge and playgrounds, 20 minutes from downtown Louisville's YUM Stadium, the Belle of Louisville, Science Museum, Louisville Slugger Museum, Falls of the Ohio, Kentucky Center For the Arts, Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom, Churchill Downs, the Louisville Zoo and Splash Park, Shelby Trails and Woodfern Riding Center, and the Parklands of Floyds Fork where you can rent canoes or kayaks to ride on the creek or bicycle for miles along a paved bike path or enjoy the spray parks, playgrounds, and picnic areas. Up for a day trip? Rockin’ River Tours is an hour away, Mammoth Cave National Park and Noah’s Ark Encounter are both an hour and a half away, and zip-lining at spectacular Red River Gorge is two hours away. We are 3 miles from a major grocery store and quite a few restaurants including Blackstone Grill, Gustavo's, Captain's Quarters, Cunningham's and several fast food restaurants. We are 9 miles from a large theater and major shopping centers.

River

This river house was GREAT! The owner was more generous than any we've had in the past and her book with home-made maps and ideas and brochures was most appreciated. Linens & towels huge, which I loved. Best views on the river. With lots of family in the area, it was great having a home base and will definitely try to book again if we get to do another week stay.

The home is lovely with a great deck, grassy area, dock outside. The clean house was well stocked with towels, sheets, kitchen supplies and detailed information about house & area. Betsy was responsive, helpful & friendly. You can tell this is a well loved property. The location was quiet and beautiful. We hope to return again. Thank you, Becky!

Great experience

So many listings use smoke and mirrors to sell you on the space. Not this host. The pictures don’t do it justice. Spacious (we had four, each of us with our own bedroom). You can have a group of 8-10 without a problem. The location on the river is great. The neighborhood is lovely. The host was helpful and very fast with communication. The only suggestion is for a new skillet or two. And that was our only wish list! Highly recommend.

Location Location Location

It was a beautiful location on the Ohio river. The house was a great layout for 6 people. It had all the basic requirements for cooking and eating at the house with an outdoor gas grill. I would recommend buying a sharp knife. There needs to be a deep clean of the house as there were cobwebs in the bathrooms and bedrooms. Things were not clean in the kitchen. The cleaning people need to pay attention to detail.

If you love the river

We loved this property it fit almost all of our groups needs and you could not ask for a better view from the deck. We were pretty sure when we booked it it had a hot tub listed as one of the amenities but upon arrival there was not one in place. The only other issues we had were the refrigerator ice machine did not work so we just had to buy a bag of ice. Also the bathtub in the upstairs master suite was marked “Do not use” we are guessing because it was a jetted tub possibly, this created a work around issue for one of our party due to a medical condition, but nothing worth calling our host about. The house was very well decorated and staged for our arrival and had more than enough extra amenities and items that helped with the process of staying in a residential neighborhood a short drive away from any stores. The washer and dryer availability was great for everyone as we all returned home with very little laundry to do. The kitchen was also very well stocked with commodities the only thing we had to purchase was our choice of coffee for the coffee maker and our basic groceries for our 4 day stay. We all agree we would definitely recommend this place to any group that has a large number of people due to the size of the home but also wish there was an option for a smaller group at a discounted rate for a weekend stay as we would like to return in the future.

Long July 4th Weekend with Family

We had such a wonderful time! The property was beautiful and we had everything we needed and more. We were there with our children, their spouses and our 2 grandchildren just under 2 years old. We brought toys for the kids, but plenty ofvtoys were there and provided for little ones, as well as games for the adults. The view is amazing. Becky answered all my questions I had before the trip and was very quick with her responses. The house was so clean. I felt very comfortable with my littles rolling around and playing on the floor. My kids and their family want to come back and do it again for a longer vacation next time. We'll be in touch. Thank you, Becky!

Catching up with old friends

Every year 6 lifelong friends, now living across the country, get together to catch up. We are all former athletes and loved the games and activities that came with this property - cornhole, shuffle board, foos, cards, giant jenga etc. Beautiful view of the Ohio river on a spacious porch made for great breakfasts and happy hours. Close proximity to Louisville gave us plenty of things to do. Great property and a great host.

Great home for an extended weekend in Louisville!

We were in town for a family wedding and rented this home for an extended weekend. The setting on the river was wonderful, as were the views from the common area of the house. The kitchen/dining/family room area were perfect for 9 people, and the shuffleboard was an especially big hit. There was an abundance of comfortable seating, including four recliners. We also appreciated the numerous amenities including a great coffee bar. We'd certainly consider renting this house again if needing a place in the future.

Amazing Sister Visit!

This is the second time we have used this property. It suited our family needs 2 years ago, and we agreed that it would be a great location for a sister visit this summer! It was a "coming home" visit for us--there were 5 of us from 5 different states although we grew up in Oldham County. We spent most of our time enjoying the back deck watching the birds come readily to the feeders, gazing at the barges moving up and down river as the speedboats, houseboats, and wave runners steered clear, and simply contemplating the mesmerizing Ohio River. Our hostess answered immediately when we had questions, and she was more than accommodating when she had to gather the items we left behind! The home is clean and well organized, supplied with many conveniences. We might suggest having a supply of tissues and laundry detergent, but we honestly have NO complaints!

About the host

Hosted by Becky

Host profile image
I am a native Louisvillian, and a retired teacher who works part-time, has 3 grown children, and loves to travel.

Why they chose this property

My family have been boaters for many years. We happened upon this house, perfect for us, which has been my little piece of heaven for over 15 years. As I drove home from a hectic day, I could literally feel the stress drain away. I love being here on the mighty Ohio, where it feels like being on vacation every day.

What makes this property unique

The way the sun lights up the island across the river is a moment of joy at the beginning of each day, and the sunsets can sometimes turn the water a brilliant shade of orange. The quiet calm in the winter is a contrast to the activity of boats cruising by in the summer. Both are my pleasure as I spend time reading on the swing in my favorite "room", the deck overlooking the river.
