Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you had a great stay and found our home clean and welcoming. It was our pleasure hosting your group of 8, and we're delighted the hot tub, fire pit, and deck added to your experience. We'd love to welcome you back anytime!
The owner was very communicative and fast to respond when we reached out about a few things not working. Both item were fixed immediately. This home is very cute with lots of charm so it does have some older home quirkiness. The home is close to so many restaurant as well. Would stay here again.

Thanks so much for the kind words, J. We’re really glad you enjoyed The Reserve and that we could quickly get those two items fixed during your stay.
It’s true the home has a bit of older-home charm and quirkiness, and we’re happy you still found it cute and convenient to Bardstown Road.
We’d love to host you again next time.
We had a great stay at this property while we were in town for a club volleyball tournament. There was plenty of room for our group of seven, and everyone had space to spread out and relax after long days at the gym.The house was well stocked — we especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like hand soap at every sink and coffee pods ready to go in the mornings.The neighborhood was such a fun bonus. We loved exploring the nearby vintage shops and really enjoyed the character of the area.Jay was a fantastic host — very responsive and accommodating and even adjusted our checkout time based on our play schedule, which we truly appreciated.It is an older home, so there were a couple of minor plumbing quirks (we just had to hold the handle down when flushing), but once we figured that out, it wasn’t an issue.Overall, it was a great place for our group, and we’d definitely consider staying again — especially for future tournaments.

We love that you explored the neighborhood's vintage shops and enjoyed the local character. And thank you for mentioning the plumbing quirk - we appreciate your understanding about the older home's personality traits!
