Everything you’ll need
The house is in a great location one block off Bardstown Road. The neighborhood is tree lined with beautiful older homes. The house has everything you’ll need - plenty of towels, well stocked kitchen, baby gates for the stairs, etc. We were all impressed with how well appointed the house was. Sat out back and enjoyed the patio. All around great experience.

Charming home and neighborhood
Super charming, well stocked home in a beautiful, walkable neighborhood. The hosts were very responsive and had even stocked coffee and snacks, which was so appreciated. Beds were comfortable - and the AC worked great on all levels, which was amazing since we visited in a heat wave. Kids loved hanging out and playing the arcade games in the basement, and my mom loved that there was a bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen on that floor so she could avoid stairs. We walked to Cherokee Park and great restaurants nearby, and loved sitting in the hot tub in the backyard in the evening watching fireflies. I hope we can stay here again on a future visit to Louisville…so much to do and see - and feel like we just scratched the surface in our week visit. Thankful we had such a great home base for all the adventures!

Great Family Getaway
We booked this place as a family getaway meeting point halfway between our locations. The house had lots of room for everyone to spread out and be comfortable. The adults were upstairs, and the kids were in the lower level. If they stayed up late, we weren't kept awake. The house was a short distance from groceries and shopping. Many places were within walking distance. We planned to visit several museums and the zoo. We made it to the zoo, but it was rainy the day we planned to visit the museums. We decided to stay in and play games. We would gladly book it again if we decide to go back to Louisville.

Wonderful vacation
We loved staying here!! The home is beautiful and cozy! We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub, we spent a lot of time there. The beds were comfortable and the basement was a blast for our youngest (who is 7)! We were all adults plus her, so it was the perfect space for all ages! Great location and the host was so kind!!

Perfect stay
Our stay in Louisville was made better for this property and it’s owners. The home was lovely and perfect for a trip to my hometown to see family for my birthday. We had an emergency with our child but the owner allowed us much grace to stay in the property longer than a typical check out time so that we could recover. Even though they didn’t have another renter, they didn’t have to be so gracious and we really appreciated and needed the hospitality. This house is more beautiful and unique than the photos can depict. Lots of space; every kitchen utensil you could imagine, plenty of space to entertain. Perfect for large families. The owners are a beautiful example of kindness and I hope to use their property again upon our next visit back home. Thanks again!

Wonderful Family Thanksgiving
Had a wonderful stay with my family for Thanksgiving. House was clean and spacious. Had a ton of extras all the kitchenware you might need, cleaning products, paper products, and even holiday themed paper plates for our use. I even found nail polish remover! Hot tub was amazing. Beds were comfy. Lovely neighborhood so close to everything. Took daily walks at Cherokee park. All surrounding homes are beautiful! Can’t say enough good things about the property! Well kept. Property manager was kind and responsive! Highly recommend!

A group of girls in our family stayed in this home for a long weekend. The home was big enough to spread out. The furnishings were stylish and fun.

Happyspace in Louisville was a great choice
Excellent location, easy communication with property host, plenty of room and lots of attention to little amenities such as a nicely stocked breakfast nook with coffee and light snacks. Well equipped kitchen that met our needs. The lower level could function as a self-contained unit, which was great for our newlywed couple in the family. On the upper level, a very nice touch in having a makeup/hair cubby that helped to extend the bathroom space. Would def rent this property again.

This is an adorable home within several great restaurants. It was also a midpoint for several bourbon tours. We also enjoyed many of the trails nearby. Plenty of room for our party. Could’ve had 4 more people stay comfortably. James was incredibly courteous and responsive.

Nice stay in a nice neighborhood
We really enjoyed the house and found it very comfortable. It has everything we needed to hang out and cook for our little family of 4. The baby gates, high chair, pack and play, and toys were perfect! The hot tub was a nice addition for the adults. We’d definitely stay there again!

We enjoyed our stay in this home. The house was stocked with all the essentials. Shampoo, conditioner, snacks, coffee, curling iron, make up wipes etc. You name it, they had it! Would be a great place to get ready for a wedding, we loved the make-up room! This place would also be wonderful with children. A small play area indoors, high chair, baby gates. So many comfortable beds and just a warm and cozy home overall. The hot tub was amazing!

Bachelorette weekend
We had a bachelorette weekend planned in another city but the weather complicated that so we had a last minute weekend in Louisville and it was wonderful! The house is huge, big enough for any number of guests and there is everything there that you need. The location is perfect! Within walking distance of all kinds of places to eat and shops and just a short drive downtown. Would definitely recommend!
