Small and cute
Overall it was a good stay, the place was dated but very clean and we loved the little coffee bar setup. I really wouldn't recommend more than 4 people though it can hold more, it was a bit tight with 5 of us. Comments from my friend include the need for serving size bowls and to check dishes that guests have washed. Would also recommend some coat hooks over the shoe tray inside the front door. Overall, excellent host with good communication, we had a good stay for that part of our trip.

Great little place
Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Some sheets were not clean but others were available. Close to Germantown and several great restaurants. Loved the information available inside and the easy access to WiFi and interstate. Great stay for families!

Cute little place
The place is dated since it only has 1 bathroom. We stayed here for an Event at the Kentucky Expo Center. We were only 10 minutes away. We had a few guinea pigs with us in the bedroom. The owner communicated well with me. The queen bed was comfortable, but the frame was quite noisy if you or your partner moved. It was quite dirty between the wall and the nightstand in the same bedroom - but I didn't see that until 2 days before we checked out. One suggestion is to make sure you take any seasoning with you. There are seasonings in most places I have stayed in, but this place has none. There are snacks, a few bottles of water in the fridge, and an assortment of K-Cups for the Keurig. The area is pretty safe, we mostly were gone during the day and returned late at night.

Perfect location for Bourbon and Beyond Festival
Great location for those wanting to attend events at Highland Festival Grounds. The listing was accurate. No frills but was clean and had everything we needed. The host was very responsive.

Great stay and great host
Everything was just as described and clean. James is incredibly responsive and immediately replied to all of our questions about check in and using the google chromecast. The kitchen is probably the most well-stocked kitchen I have ever stayed in. There were snacks for the kids and coffee and teas, which just really made the stay special for all of us! The bathroom is very well stocked, if you forget anything it's probaby there. There were plenty of clean towels and washcloths for our family of 6. Thank you so much, James, we can't wait to come back to Kentucky Kingdom and visit your place again. Tip is to bring ear plugs and a soundspa if you are suburbanites like us, not used to the city sounds.

A little home to rest your head
A perfect place to set up camp while you explore the area. The neighborhood was quiet and the neighbors were friendly. Close to everything in Louisville and the host was very hospitable and responsive.

Convenient location
Super clean. Very cozy. Antenna tv. Internet was out from storm a few days beforehand. I wouldn’t go walking the neighborhood after dark but all in all it served it purpose of exploring Louisville!

Just what we needed
This was just an overnight stay for us, but we came with 4 children ages 6-16 and 2 dogs! The owner was so helpful and accommodating and even let us check in slightly early to accommodate a memorial service we had to attend. Highly recommend working with this owner.

Lovely Louisville
This was just what the pictures showed. A lovely front porch to sit at night. House was well stocked, clean and many new features. Close to downtown or to points south. A great start to the Bourbon Trail.

Almost perfect until we went to bed
All communication with James was quick. He apologized for not mowing the lawn. It was blazing hot weather so that was totally understandable. The location was as described and we loved the neat and cozy feel. All was well until we opened the microwave. The inside had not been cleaned. Easy enough to take care of. The second find was a bit more concerning. The bathroom mirror was missed in the cleaning as well. We left that untouched. We ran into real trouble when we went to bed. This is where the listing description was inaccurate. Far from comfortable, the bed also squeaked every time either of us moved even slightly. A sleepless night ensued. There were other beds but, as recent newlyweds, we have never slept in separate beds. We had secured the booking for three nights. We left after one night when we returned from church on Sunday morning. We advised James and specified our reason. Very disappointing.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 Jul 2023
There were a couple minor cleaning errors made that have been addressed with my staff. It happens but not very often. As far as the bed, I haven't had a problem with anyone regarding it. These guests were self-described seniors and may have required something in addition for comfort. I have stellar reviews on other sites as well as this one and I can not wait to host you future guests. One bad review will not stop this show!! All are more than welcome. Safe Travels!!!

Really surprised by the property
A couple of us Veterans stayed at this location for our annual meeting. I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and how well stocked the property was. There was plenty of coffee, snacks and any other supplies you could possibly think of. It is located on the backside of an Industrial area, however it was very quiet around there. The only downside I could possibly think of is it did not have a laundry, which honestly was not a major deal. If we are ever back in town, we will definitely look at staying here again.

Clean and basic
Very very clean! Very basic stay which is all we needed for a 2 night stay. We were only there in the late evening and to sleep. Good bit of noise from the train and airport that’s very close by, but by the second night, we slept better. Friendly neighborhood!

Wonderful experience.
Host was very gracious. Property super clean. Very convenient to our dog show. Only thing was the property said fenced and it wasn't fenced completely so we couldn't use the yard but I would stay again. We locked the wrong lock and got locked out and our host came and let us in immediately. Just a wonderful person.
