The property is truly beautiful, set up a little funny, but very nice, very well kept and communication with owner was very rapid.Problems1. Internet, such a poor signal the smart televisions on the property could not connect2. It said it had a grill, it did not. It had a fire pit.3.a lack of cooking utensils, no frying pans no spatula ...really nothing 4. Vent fan over oven and light over oven not functional.

Lovely Place!

Very clean! Easy access to anything in the downtown area (within 15 or less minutes). Definitely has the country feel while still in Louisville. Super easy check in and check out!

Absolutely amazing rental!

You could tell the renter went the extra mile, both financially and with design, to make the renter's stay comfortable, fun, and luxurious. We appteciated the quality bath linens and bedding, and the beds were so comfortable. The design made it feel inviting and high end. Communication with the renter reflected the large effort of this renter. She was timely and professional, and very reprogram to our family's needs. I highly recommend this property. You cannot beat the location or the effort put into this rental.

Lovely

Although the pictures posted were not the rental we got, we enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean and the location was perfect - although lacking the Ohio River view that was the reason we booked this location. The host was friendly and showed her concern about an issue with the key. We would gladly book there again and recommend it to friends.

Comfortable Cottage!

Very nice location! Close to the River and minutes to downtown Louisville and public parklands! The cottage was very nice, easily accessible and located in a quiet area. There is onsite parking. The property owner was quick to respond to any communication. I would stay here again.
