Quaint, comfortable, calm
Was visiting a friend and needed something better than a hotel room. This fit the bill wonderfully. One suggestion is blinds on the two windows in the TV room. It felt a little exposed.

Cute and clean
I was attending a convention at the expo and needed someplace to stay. The host was prompt to respond to any questions I had. It was clean. You can hear the people above you unfortunately it is just the design of the space. Thankfully they were also attending the convention so our schedules were fairly similar. I understand the need to keep the matress protected but the matress cover was very loud and hot since it apparently had a plastic/ vinyl layer. I would suggest looking for an alternative.

Cozy Cottage in a Vibrant Neighborhood
This cottage is perfect for two—comfortable, clean, and sophisticated. It’s located in a very cool neighborhood where you can walk to get coffee, wine, and groceries. A quick drive takes you to the park and creek. We stayed five nights for a local event affected by Hurricane Helene, but hanging out at the cottage made it easy. We drove into town, brought bikes, and cycling around the area was a lot of fun. We were grateful to have such lovely accommodations during our stay.

Great stay in my old neighborhood!
Was great to travel to Louisville for my brother’s 70th birthday and stay in a lovely home right in the neighborhood where we grew up. The unit is lovely and hosts are onsite and very responsive, and it’s walking distance to restaurants and shops. We’ll be back!

Nice
Overall, great stay. Positives: super clean, recently updated, nice appliances, nice neighborhood. Considerations: in a carriage house. Host super nice and very rarely saw but it was a little weird staying in their backyard. Also, it had a new small AC unit in the main area near the couch, but with no central air system, the bedroom remained very warm(we stayed in August). It was hot enough that my husband chose to sleep on the couch in the AC vs the bedroom.

We were staying in Louisville to help our son and family prepare their house. The apartment, while it had minimal supplies, was just what we were looking for. We look for clean and basic accommodations. This suited us well.

My daughter and I stayed in this adorable house for the Derby. The home owner was so sweet ! She was wonderful to communicate with and she even bought us welcome gifts!! Overall it was a great stay. This is an apartment in a garage that you have to go through. Didn’t realize that when we rented it. However we would stay again !! It was adorable !

Perfect for a couple
Stacey was great to work with, and provided input on great restaurants and things to do in the area. The carriage house was perfect for us, a central location for visiting Louisville Slugger museum and also Churchhill Downs. We enjoyed walking around in the neighborhood and also sitting out on the deck. It had everything that we needed, clean, and exactly as pictured.

Amazing weekend in Louisville!
My husband and I stayed for the weekend, as we attended the Bourbon and Beyond Festival. The place was super clean and adorable. Great and quiet neighborhood. Stacy recommended plenty of local restaurants and they were all fantastic. I highly recommend staying here, if you are in the area.
