About this property

Come explore all that Jeffersonville and Louisville have to offer

Welcome to our Utica Estate guest suite. Please browse through the photos and read the descriptions underneath them. The private hot tub is available year-round. Perfect for relaxing and de-stressing during your stay. The pool is open May 1 - Oct 1. You can stay in and binge watch movies from our collection of DVD's or your Apple TV app favorites on the 110 inch screen in the theater room. There is so much to do and enjoy at Utica Estate and the surrounding area! You’ll love our home because of the location...close to downtown Louisville & Jeffersonville but tucked away enough for a peaceful, relaxing stay. We are located just minutes from Big Four Station, the popular walking bridge over the Ohio River connecting Jeffersonville, Indiana to Louisville, Kentucky. The pool is open May1 - Oct 1. PLEASE take a few minutes to READ through EACH section of our listing (photos, why this property, unique benefits, house rules, rooms and spaces). It is full of helpful information. There are also a description with each photo to help you get a better idea of the layout. ** We do not allow early check ins or late check outs so please plan accordingly.
We are exactly 5 miles from downtown Louisville. The 2nd Street bridge is a toll FREE bridge (a.k.a. US-31). You can't miss it because it was painted bright yellow. It is also the fastest route to downtown Louisville. We are only 5.2 miles from the new east end bridge. That bridge goes to the east end of Louisville and is a toll bridge. If you want to avoid the tolls, the free 2nd street bridge will get you to where to need to go in Louisville. Once you get on the bridge your GPS will reroute you. It will add about 3 minutes to your commute.
*This is a completely smoke free rental. We do not allow smoking on the property inside or out. If you or anyone in your group smokes this is probably not a good fit for you. *We do not make exceptions.
The rental space, attached garage, pool, & hot tub are completely private with your own entrance. We do live on the property, upstairs from the guest suite.

Great place with a hot tub.

Perfect for my husband, two small children and myself. We were attending a conference at the Kentucky Expo Center and this was convenient and in a quiet neighborhood. The guesthouse had everything we needed and the spa was nice. We will definitely stay here again. The host was very helpful and accommodating.

Wonderful stay

We had a great time at Utica Estate. The pool and hot tub were fantastic, there’s good dining within a few miles, everything in downtown Louisville a short drive. The host was very responsive to texts. The basement apartment is fantastic. Lots of room. Thoughtful to provide games and playing cards if the weather is not cooperating. Overall a great trip! Be sure to ask about the kittens! Thanks again!

A Little Slice of Paradise

Our stay at Utica Estate was all that we hoped it would be! Our basement suite was immaculate and well appointed with all of the comforts of home. Our kitchen and bathroom were stocked with virtually every item we would have found in our own home. We enjoyed the theatre room during both late evenings of our visit. The backyard provided us with a private paradise that included a beautiful pool and deck area. We spent hours in the water and in our lounge chairs! Just minutes away are riverfront restaurants and walking paths as well as a bridge that allowed us to walk from Jeffersonville into Louisville. We have already booked a return visit!

Large Apartment 5 mi from Louisville

This fabulous basement apartment was everything we needed for our stay. Comfortable bed, well stocked kitchen. Large dressing area. Beautiful shower and bathroom. Kitchen table seat six and we used it to play games. The Living room, theater room, was comfortable. Plenty of space for anything you might want to do. Plenty of coffee! Five miles to free parking for the Big Four bridge. The hot tub was fabulous and we enjoyed it every night. The yard was delightful. Would stay again with pleasure!

Nice rental, quiet but accessible

We were in town for a basketball tournament. The rental was just outside the town of Jeffersonville. Quiet neighborhood. I loved the quietness of the home and property. The workout equipment and yard were really great too. The rental is in the basement so there is no natural light. I did miss that but it was great for a quiet and dark sleep area! The layout of the basement was a little awkward. The bathroom is located in the direct flow of traffic. When someone was in the bathroom you had to use the back hallway to get to the kitchen or to leave the rental. Melissa is very responsive and helpful with any questions.

Perfect for a family

Utica Estates was the perfect place for a long weekend getaway. We had planned a vacation to Gulf Shores but cancelled due to Covid-19. In order to salvage some sort of family trip, we searched for a home that wasn't too far away with access to a private pool. This place fitted our requirements perfectly! Melissa was such a gracious host. She helped us with suggestions to local restaurants that had outdoor seating and told us about the wonderful Big Four Station, along with events happening that weekend. Her property is conveniently located near restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping. Everything we needed was within a 5 minute drive. And the backyard and pool were heavenly!! It's heated but not too warm, so it was just perfect for a hot summer's day. Everything was clean in the apartment and there's plenty of room for our family of four. Overall we had a great stay and are hoping to return next spring!

Lots of room

I really liked most of the space, but I will say it was hard to have no light. I am not sure lower level made it clear it was going to be the basement. The only window is on the door that leads to the garage-which is dark as well. Not having any natural light was strange. I also think I did not understand we could use the sun-room. It just made it somewhat disappointing-but owners were very nice and place was clean.

Wedding Eve AND Wedding Night

We stayed the night prior to my wedding…me, the bride, my daughter, my sister, and my best friend and her two little girls. We had such a good time relaxing watching movies, soaking in the hot tub, and we had plenty of space to spread out and rest. The night of the wedding, my new hubby and I spent the evening, also taking advantage of the hot tub and a late movie night. Host communicated well, promptly, couldn’t ask for a better place for such a special occassion
