The Cooperage ~ NULU ~ 4 Bedroom/3 Baths
Cooper: A maker of casks & barrels.
Kenzie & Kyle present to you: The Cooperage. Named after the space where bourbon barrels are forged, you’ll find variations of oak & iron throughout our home – a nod to the humble beginnings of all Kentucky bourbon. Making an imposing mark on NuLu, The Cooperage pays homage to its warehouse district through a vintage-style brick facade, large colonial windows, and exposed steel balcony.
We've crafted every part of this brand-new home with YOU in mind. It's bold in design & full of textural elements, telling the enriching story of Louisville's bourbon scene.
We invite you to experience our one-of-a-kind home away from home.
LEVEL 1: Right through the front door, you'll enter an open living and dining concept with everything you need to enjoy conversation & cocktails. You'll find 1 full bath & 1 King bedroom down the hallway. Head straight out the backdoor for an evening around the fire, bourbon in hand.
LEVEL 2: Head upstairs to the primary bedroom with en suite bath. Straight ahead you'll find 2 bedrooms, split by 1 full bath. Finally, head out the front door to our balcony - the perfect spot for morning cup of coffee, while overlooking NuLu.
LIVING SPACE: Think hunting lodge meets cigar lounge. Our African Bushbuck and Colorado Pronghorn watch over this dark and richly textural space. Touches of bronze lighting and velvet drapes cast a moody glow for nighttime cocktails and conversation. Our living space features 10-foot ceilings, 85" TV, Bose Soundbar, Cigar humidor & Poly & Bark leather seating.
KITCHEN: With a fully stocked kitchen & an oversized island, it’s a cozy space that makes you want to pull a seat - and stay a while. Whether it's pouring your morning coffee or baking a scrumptious dinner, we've got the supplies for you to make it all. The Pottery Barn copper pendants, Blanco sink, stainless steel appliances and wood grain backsplash are a few of our favorite kitchen features. Key Appliances: Microwave, Oven, Coffee & Tea Pot, Blender & Toaster. Your bar alcove awaits! Serve up the bourbon cocktail of your choosing with a selection of our favorite Crate & Barrel glassware + barware.
BED 1 - WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS: Drawn from cigar haze, smoked cocktails and fire-born barrel staves, smoke is a central element to all stages of bourbon – from barrel to glass. The cloudy strokes of smoky Bauwerk limewash, metal dipped lighting, marble side tables & smoking portraits provide context to this room theme. You’ll find icon Anthony Bourdain front & center, honoring our shared passion of food, drink, & travel. As is standard with all our bedrooms, you'll find a TV, closet with hangers, ceiling fan, full length mirror & suitcase stands.
BATH 1: Immerse yourself inside of an aging bourbon barrel surrounded by hints of copper and bronze tones. The stark & towering matte black tile shower is the ‘smoking gun’ of the space - reminiscent of oak char.
BED 2 - OAK & IRON: Experience a barrel’s key elements in raw form. The oak slats provide an impactful backdrop for the iron-look bed set. Comfy, cozy & spacious, our primary bedroom windows let in all the natural light - or close the blackout curtains if you're looking to sleep in! This room features Pottery Barn nightstands, Bourbon bottle lamps & wood slats. We hope you enjoy our alcove. The perfect spot to sit and read - or enjoy your morning coffee before hitting the bourbon trail!
BATH 2: The en suite bath is designed to provide a fresh, natural take on oak and iron. Step into the fully-surround wood-look tile shower for ultimate relaxation. Featuring: 63" West Elm vanity, mosaic stone floor tile & Signature Hardware bath hardware.
BED 3 - FEATHER IN YOUR CAP: The room with an air of sophistication. Tartan plaid, brass accents and a pheasant mid-flight offer a unique take on classic men’s Derby millinery creations and this age-old phrase.
BATH 3: Iron barrel rings hold an important role in the world of bourbon. The gunmetal hardware accents, metallic splashed tile and pewter vanity light let this Cooper’s material shine. Check out the oversize soaking tub! This bath is shared with bed 3 & 4.
BED 4 - WHISKEY THIEF: Our 4th and final bedroom stole its namesake from the industry’s straight-from-the-barrel taste tester. Look up and take in the vintage-style copper ceiling tiles, a selection we made to ensure you felt immersed in the element of copper. We've placed a genuine Vendome (located in NuLu) copper whiskey thief above the bed. The circular mirrors are designed to stack like a pot still. You'll also have the balcony view with access through the hallway. Your room will include a TV, closet with hangers, ceiling fan, full length mirror & suitcase stands.
BACKYARD: Pour yourself a glass and step out to a roaring fire for the perfect bourbon trail nightcap. We kept the backyard space simplistic to let the Edison string lights, custom firepit & Polywood Adirondacks become the backdrop to fireside memories.
LAUNDRY: Our Washer & Dryer are available to you during your stay as well as an iron & ironing board.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

We had an excellent stay at The Cooperage. Kyle and Kenzie were incredibly responsive and even met us at the property when we arrived, sharing great local restaurant recommendations. The house was spotless, well-equipped, and perfectly suited for our group of seven (three couples and one single). The location couldn’t be better—walking distance to restaurants, tasting rooms, and bars—yet still felt private and comfortable. Highly recommend this rental, and we’d absolutely stay here again.

We stayed at The Cooperage with a group of friends for a celebration and bourbon tastings, and it was absolutely perfect for the occasion.Every bedroom having a unique style but also a king-sized bed was a huge plus, making it comfortable and fair for all guests. The entire space is one of the most thoughtfully designed and purpose-built VRBOs we have ever visited. Everything from the layout to the decor feels tailored for bourbon-themed gatherings.The location is also fantastic. It's tucked into a quiet section of NuLu, but still within easy walking distance to great restaurants, shops, and bars. Plus, it's just a short rideshare to pretty much anywhere in the city.The vibe is stylish yet cozy, and the hosts were wonderful, responsive, helpful, and genuinely easy to work with. If you're planning a group trip to Louisville, especially anything bourbon-related, The Cooperage should be at the top of your list.Highly recommend!

Great communication with owners. Very nice place.
We stayed there with 2 other couples to do some Louisville attractions such as distillery tours and Churchill Downs. The house was great. Still seemed new and well-decorated. The kitchen was very well equipped. The gathering space was great. Kenzie was very responsive when I had questions before and during our stay. I would highly recommend this house.

Perfect Stay!
This was the perfect fit for our group of 8 for my husband’s 40th birthday trip. Beautiful and spacious home, easy check in and hosts were SO helpful in answering questions about the area and providing recommendations. They went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. The location was walkable to great spots in NuLu and a short ride to Whiskey Row.

Perfect Bourbon Base
A very well thought out new place. We loved how it was appointed in a very classy way for bourbon lovers. Very well appointed. Had everything we needed and then some. Outdoor space is really nice. And the den is awesome. Bedrooms are very spacious and comfortable. And the entire place was spotless. Communication was excellent. Great hosts. It is very close to downtown, so there were some noises at night - street noise, distant train, etc. So note that if you are a super light sleeper. But that would not prevent us from staying here again. A very lovely place. Thank you!

A Jewel Downtown in NULU
The Cooperage is a fantastic property! It is one of the best short term rentals we have ever stayed in. It is a new home, extremely well appointed and professionally decorated. It could be featured in an interior design magazine. It was a perfect location in downtown Louisville as our home base for our weeklong Bourbon Trail tour.
Kyle and Kenzie are wonderful hosts. They are very friendly, caring, communicative, and insured we had a pleasant stay. They checked on us several times throughout the week to ensure everything was going well and we were having a good time. They have appointed the property with everything you need, including incredibly comfortable beds, linens, and furniture. The kitchen is extensively equipped with gourmet, cookware, dinnerware, bare ware, and appliances.
We enjoyed hanging out in the large comfortable living room with the 85 inch smart television. The backyard fire pit and chairs were great on a cool evening as we enjoyed bourbon acquired on our bourbon tour, along with a good cigar.
There are plenty of cleaning supplies, dishwashing and laundry tablets, and paper products. They even set out a nice selection of teas, honey, sweeteners, and a local bag of coffee.
The details in the fit and finish of the property are well appreciated, including little details like soft, closing toilet lids, nightlights, tissue boxes, wooden coat hangers, luggage buddies, endless hot water, and great Wi-Fi.
I highly recommend this property!

This was an outstanding property in a great location. Everything was new and maintained. The hosts were incredibly helpful throughout booking and had an extensive/detailed list of recommendations in the area that we used throughout the trip. Lots of bars/restaurants within walking distance, and many more just a short drive/uber away. Some of us are already looking into staying again on our next trips. Thanks for everything!

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!
Wow! Simply put, this is a must stay, and it is one of the best properties we’ve stayed in over our many years of travel. It felt very spacious for the 8 of us and we had everything we needed - and then some. It's one street behind the main strip, so we walked to a number of great distilleries, dinner spots and bars. The backyard was stocked with wood, so the fire pit and glass of bourbon were perfect to cap off the night. Everyone in our group wants to repeat our stay at The Cooperage next year!
