Great place to spend Derby weekend!

My husband, daughter and I stayed in this house and it was perfect for three people. Our daughter slept on the couch/bed and had her own bathroom while we had the bedroom en suite. Our hosts had equipped the house with everything we needed, including a bouquet of roses for the Derby! (And ponchos as it was rainy!). It was close to Churchill Downs and the Exposition Center where we could shuttle to the track. A perfect spot for three people!
Inside before the Derby with our lovely roses from our hosts.

A quiet, well-appointed and convenient place to stay In Louisville

We loved everything about your lovely place. Well decorated and comfortable. A well equipped kitchen. Parking we could count on right out front at the curb. On a side street and quiet. Close to eateries we enjoyed. Not far from downtown and other Louisville neighborhoods. Staying here was just a really great experience!

Great spot for adventuring around the area

This is a cute house in a really fun part of Louisville. The house itself is in great condition, clean, and with just enough "stuff" to make our stay enjoyable without being too much. The kitchen was stocked (tool-wise) with just enough to make cooking simple meals straight-forward. Parking was simple out back. Access to restaurants, shops, and the highway was easy. We didn't need to contact the host for anything out of the ordinary, but she was quick to get back to me when I messaged her.

Great location and great hosts!

Thank you Karen and Ken for such a wonderful stay in Louisville! We came for Derby weekend and spent most of our time at the track, but it was so nice to come back to a *clean* and updated rental to wind down from the day. The bed was very comfy and perfect for a good nights sleep!! Thank you for the timley communication and clear check-in/ check-out instructions! Lastly, the roses, rain ponchos, and derby koozies were the perfect touch for Derby weekend! The details did not go unnoticed. Thank you!! We hope to come visit again in the future!

Great place to stay!

Have to say when we pulled up to it we were a little worried it was going to be not as nice just because some of the places around it were not in good condition . But once you walk in it’s like a whole different level. This place is well maintained , clean , roomy, comfortable and just a very great place to stay . We had a easy check in and check out process . It’s very close to downtown so you can easily go wherever! We recommend this place to anyone!
