100 year old house, recently fully renovated. Located off of Bardstown road, close 5-10 min to the Gene Snyder Freeway. Lots of outdoor space to lounge in, including a 100 year old renovated barn. Finished inside fully with Shiplap, the barn opens up to the patio area or private hot tub area. No parties.
The stay was perfect. I appreciated the prompt communication from the host anytime I had a question. We did not get to utilize the space to its fullest potential since we spent the majorty of the time doing wedding stuff all weekend. It was a very comfortable landing spot after a long day.
The house was what we needed to accomdate our family for a college graduation. The hot tub was a plus. Fans did not work in the rooms on the main floor and changed batteries they still did not work. All and all it was perfect for us.
Our family came to Louisville for the graduation of our son. We had 4 children ranging from age 5 to age 11. There was enough room for them to play in the yard and in the basement. The hot tub was fun too!
Stayed there for five nights and had a wonderful time. We had 9 kids and 4 adults in our group, and sometimes it was just nice to have a spot to play board games or watch TV together. The VRBO really felt like a calm place for us with everything we were trying to get done, and we made great use of the kitchen, living rooms, and bedrooms. I definitely have to give a SUPER Shout-out to Sarah here. She was really quick and friendly to respond when we had questions and made things feel like they were simple like check in, check-out, and WiFi. She had messaged it to me and she also had it in a little phone nook the house had (because it still has character). Felt like we had close access to everything in Louisville proper while living a life a little more in the burbs, which was just perfect for us.
We stayed here for a couple nights for a family vacation. It was nice to come back to lots of comfy places to lounge after being out on adventures during the day. Everything worked, it was super clean and well kept. It was perfect for our big family!
This house was perfect for two families with teen girls. Plenty of space for everyone and plenty of bathrooms. Having two living rooms was a plus, as well. We loved the outdoor patio area!
The owners were quick with responses and very friendly.
Not impressed with the property. Advised the owners/manager of water damage as the floor downstairs was peeling up, and would squish under your feet when walking on it and the doors to the downstairs bedroom was split due to water damage so it could not open/close. There were 4 box fans in a closet downstairs but when we asked the owners about water damage they denied it.
We appreciated the room to give us more space to spread out compared to a traditional hotel. Louisville is a great place to visit!! We were celebrating my brother's birthday and it worked perfectly!
The host and property were great. Convenient to stores, highway and the baseball fields. Plenty of room inside and a large outdoor area for playing and hanging out. The hot tub was a hit with our kids. Would stay here again
I was so amazed by this property. It's beyond beautiful and the decor was excellent. So much room to relax and just enjoy the moment. Back yard lounge area was a plus. Will definitely return.
The house was nice, didnât realize it was a multi level house. We wanted king beds which it had 2 but one was upstairs and the other one was downstairs. So we ended up sleeping on a queen. Because of our age I would not have rented it if I had known it was multi level. The host responded quickly to my emails.
This listing was truly awesome just as the pics posted. The host was very attentive to our needs. Gratefully her husband was near by to quickly help out when we have trouble getting the fire pit to work. My family and I really appreciated that. â€ïž
This house is so charming and perfect for multiple families. I wish this was my house! Love the 3 floor levels and the shower in the basement was amazing. The bathroom and room on the 3rd floor was so cute.
My daughter said she felt like a princess. The 2 different dens were great for seperate families. Will definitely book here next time we are in Louisville.
We spent a weekend here, we weren't at the house a ton but overall good experience. There were some dead bugs in the basement. It would be nice and more convenient to have a set wifi password instead of the current process. We just used our phones. The hot tub water was kinda low and it unfortunately doesn't hold heat great. The hot tub stayed around 95 degrees, we set it to 104! I was really looking forward to the hot tub but didnt get a chance to try it out until the last night so the owners weren't contacted.
Overall good stay!
It fit the needs of our group. The kitchen had bare minimums as far as utensils. The stairs both up and down are quite steep. Not a problem for some, but definitely a problem for others. There is no door on the upstairs bathroom or upstairs bedroom so limited privacy. Downstairs bedroom door didn't close properly. One tv remote was missing but we could do without. It was nice to have laundry on site. Communication was very clear and quick with the owner. Nice neighborhood with privacy, and we saw several deer wandering through the property. Close to groceries and not too far from downtown.
Louisville Stay 12/8 thru 12/10
- The neighborhood is nice
- The place was very clean and as advertised
- The host was responsive when we had questions and/issues
- Upgrades to kitchen and bath very nice. Except kitchen drawers
Opportunities for improvement
- There is an unsecured garage near the hot tub. The door will not shut
- There was what appeared to be a blood spot on the comforter/bed on the main floor
- Nearly every drawer in the kitchen appears broken/off the railing
- Torn shower curtain in bathroom on the main floor
- The television on the main floor and basement was not working. Appears to be remote issue.
Overall, the place is decent. Not bad, not great. 7 out of 10. C on letter grade scale. No deal breaker issues, but the place is in need of a touch up. Inside and outside.
Would I recommend this location to a friend? No, VRBO has too many options to settle for C grade location.
Loved our stay! Plenty of room for everyone. Beds were really comfy, hot tub and outdoor areas were nice. Everything was great! Host was very open and communicative.
