My Old Kentucky Home

GuidoRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great place to stay- the apartment feels really new and is in a modern and clean building. The apartment itself is large, has a nice kitchen and nice layout (bedrooms are not connected). The area is beautiful and you are steps away from a wonderful walk/hike/run at the Falls of the Ohio state park. All amenities are there. The bathroom could’ve been a bit cleaner - I think this was a short oversight as the rest of the house was very clean and tidy.

1bdrm Apt 11min from Churchill Downs

JeffreyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Great location. Nicely laid out apartment. Though we didn’t use it much, the kitchen was well stocked; most spices and even some food. They supplied a bottle of wine and some water bottles which was nice. Plenty of towels, wash clothes, shampoo, etc in the bathroom. Nice closet, comfortable bed. Comfortable furniture in the living area, lamps (not just overhead lights, which is a pet peeve). Ashley was very responsive the few times we reached out, and checked in with us a few times to make sure we were enjoying our stay or if we needed anything. I was a little confused by the Key Cafe which is how you get your key at check in, but probably because I was unfamiliar with it. There is an app which goes with it, but they also supply a code which is easier to use. The building where the apartment is located is very upscale and welcoming. There’s an honor bar for snacks and drinks, a number of businesses in the building, and a pizza place / micro brewery at one end of the building.
A spacious living area features a gray sofa adorned with a soft throw pillow, positioned beside a sleek coffee table. A large mirror reflects the room's light, enhancing the open feel. The kitchen area is visible in the background, showcasing dark cabinetry and modern appliances.

Exquisite Louisville Area, Derby, River Retreat

TeddyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
5 Stars! The place was amazing! Beautifully located on the Ohio River, it offered breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere. The beverage refreshments were such a thoughtful touch, making the experience even more special. Micha was incredibly easy to talk to and very accommodating. Hands down, this place is a gem tucked away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing stay! Wonderful location, accommodations and hosts. The most well stocked of any place I’ve ever stayed. My husband and I had a wonderful weekend away. Perfect home base while exploring distilleries of Louisville. Felt like coming home when returning to Jodie & Doug’s place. Norton Commons is a sweet neighborhood with plenty to offer all on its own.

City Loft Escape with River Views! By Hollyhock

JoeyRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Place met all needs for our stay: walking distance to so many great bars, restaurants and breweries, easy to get into and spacious for the whole group, ample kitchen storage and appliances for in home meals, and overall convenient with check in and out instructions. we had a maintenance issue while there (at no fault of the host, cause by a storm in area during our stay) They responded early the next morning when we notified them and had it taken care of same day, before we even got back from our distillery tour. would definitely stay here again. close enough to downtown but far enough from the bustle that it was quiet at night.

Spacious Riverfront Condo Minutes from Downtown!

RobinRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Awesome stay. Although it's not the best view of the river and Louisville in the distance, the area more than made up for it. Our kids were competing in the NASP tournament at the KY Exposition Center in Louisville which was a quick trip across the bridge. The indoor pool was heated and jetted. This was an unexpected luxury and extremely relaxing after a long drive. This was our first AirBnB and we loved the privacy and ease of access to many attractions as well as restaurants.
