About the host

Host profile image
Welcome to Southern Hospitality with a European Flair.

I was born in Holland and grew up in Utah, got married and moved to Cody, WY and then moved for the last time to Jeffersontown, a beautiful, historic town.

I've lived in Jeffersontown/Louisville for over eight years and before that, have visited two to three times a year and couldn't resist moving here. I know you'll love it here, too.

Come and enjoy the comforts of home away from home while you are on vacation or a business trip.

Why they chose this property

I moved from Wyoming to Louisville and for a couple of years had lived in a rental house that had trees but also the glaring lights from the baseball field nearly every single night when I wanted to just sit outside and enjoy the stars. When I found this property for sale, I latched on to it for its beautiful, quiet woodsy setting full of trees, lawn and surrounded by birds during the day and stars and moon at night. We live in a quiet "No Through" street, at the end of the block where you hear nothing but the birds during the day, see lightening bugs in the woods, stars in the sky and an occasional airplane flying lazily by, tree frogs and crickets singing their mating calls at night.
I used to live in the mountains where you could hear only the stream trickling by, birds singing and at night sit outside and enjoy a glass of wine while basking in the warmth of the evening with the stars and moon overhead.
This property is perfect for sharing with you the beauty of all that I've described above for you.

What makes this property unique

This is a spacious four bedroom house with the full use of all the amenities you could ask for. Eat your breakfast or have a small gathering for dinner and refreshments on the deck. Use the large gas grill and or keep your food warm on the warming plate on the side. Cook a full course meal in the kitchen, do your laundry in the large front load machines. Laundry detergent and softener sheets are provided. Enjoy a relaxing evening out on the deck with a glass of wine and look at the stars while the lightening bugs dance around the trees in the woods. Take a walk downtown in our quiet little town in the historic Gaslight district and let us shuttle you to the events downtown Louisville or take in a movie at nearby theaters, bowling, golf and game areas.

If you travel on a regular basis and don't want the usual cold hotel room, need a place that's private and/or need to entertain business partners sometime during your stay, this is the place, or need to have extended stay and don't want to pay a higher fee, contact me in advance and schedule your stays, the price is reduced for extended stays.
