Meet your host
Lives in Louisville, Kentucky
My family and I started hosting on Airbnb from our 2 bedroom home in downtown Napa California in 2015.
A close friend was undergoing medical treatments, and because we did not have a lot of money, we decided to rent out our house (and stay on his couch) for the weekend of a now famous music festival.
The weekend was a huge success, the guests had an amazing time, we made new friends, and our friend got the money for his medical treatment. After that we were hooked!
Since 2015, we have lived the goodness everyday that hosting people can generate. We have now hosted thousands of visitors in properties around the country that we either own renovated and manage, or have helped others renovate and/or manage.
Our family works extremely hard to provide our guests a luxury experience (at a price point for everyone) by combining perfect accommodations, unrivaled service plus concierge access to the local area.
We love hosting weekend getaways, large groups for Bachelor/Bachelorette parties, extended stays for traveling professionals. Anyone with goodness in their heart are always welcome at any of our homes.
We have a small staff that helps answer any question 24/7, but we're a very small family company with a passion for providing an incredible guest experience.
We look forward to hosting you!
Cheers- Christian (big bro) + Shannon and John (little bro) + Lauren (VentureBNB)
