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.

Beautiful, Quiet and Cozy

This place is a little gem. It was 5 minutes from downtown but just far enough out that it was quiet and peaceful. The property was beautiful and just as described. As an added bonus we met a beautiful white Lab who was very friendly and welcoming as well. She was precious and so is this quaint little cottage. Highly recommended

Lovely stay

We so enjoyed our stay in the carriage house. Beautifully maintained and styled. Very easy to access the city and all we had planned for the week. Kitchen was stocked with supplies. We also appreciated a large walk in closet. There is parking around back, the other house guests used our spot for most of the stay but we were able to park in the main house drive right next to the carriage house. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to any friends and family traveling to Louisville. Thank you Diane!

Experiencing bourbon culture in Louisville

Everything about this property is absolutely perfect! My husband and I stayed here for two nights while we explored Louisville's numerous bourbon distilleries. The cottage is extremely well maintained. The cottage is located in a beautiful and peaceful neighborhood minutes from downtown. The serene landscape surrounding the cottage is welcoming and relaxing. The interior is beautifully decorated and extremely clean. The kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom are well stocked with supplies and comfortable linens. The owners provided everything that was needed for a stress free and relaxing stay. Our only regret is not booking this property for more nights. We will definitely book this property again in the future!

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.
