Fantastic stay for 5 couples celebrating a 50th birthday. We LOVED the house. We cooked breakfast everyday, made steaks for dinner one night and played games in the living room in the evenings. It was perfect!
Very clean house we had a very pleasant day. Communication with the owners was very good. I would definitely recommend this house for anybody wanting to stay in the Louisville area
Great home with lots of space. Bedrooms are large and plenty of room to relax. Recent snow had been cleared off the driveway for good access. The house had everything we needed for our stay.

5 couples stayed 3 nights and we all loved the house. Probably the nicest rental we have stayed in. Beautiful house. Historic charm but very nicely modernized. Well decorated, but comfortable. Very clean. Loved hanging out on both the front porch and back deck as well as the 2 living rooms and we used both kitchens. Everyone had their own room with king size beds and each couple had their own bathroom. We would definitely recommend this house.
Great place plenty of room for 6 people to be comfortable.
