Perfect retreat for a couple. Perfect location to see Louisville.

The cottage was furnished beautifully and completely. The River Road location is lovely and very convenient to all parts of Louisville. Great restaurants in each direction within a 10-15 minute drive. Host was great. Very responsive throughout booking and checkin process. We will stay here again if at all possible.

Overnight trip to Louisville

We have stayed at this location a few times before. It is wonderful, out of the way, but very close at the same time. The house is perfect. The space, the comfort, the bed, and the overall experience is a 10 every time.
