The Bourbon Belle is one of Louisville's original shotgun homes. Louisville is known for it's preservation of these unique homes that "you could fire a shotgun from one end of the home out the other". They were built in the early 1890’s by German immigrants working in small farms and butcher shops.

Other things to note-

Louisville stay

The VRBO was in a perfect location for us. We attended a volleyball tournament at Louisville convention center. I would recommend anybody stay at this location. If we get back to Louisville, we will definitely try to stay at the same place.Tom Wilson

Bourbon Belle Stay

Came to Louisville for a long weekend to visit with my son and his girlfriend and to watch the national football championship game. Can’t imagine our staying at a hotel again as long as homes like this are available. It’s so much more relaxing and has the benefit of a kitchen available.

Wonderful location and a lovely shotgun home. Was in town for work and ended up having to stay a few extra days - so glad I had this great space to come back to each evening. I also highly recommend Phalcha Coffee down the road :)

Nice place to stop!

We were looking for a place to stop between Millersburg, Ohio and Chattanooga, Tennessee and decided to stay here. It was close to dining and shopping and we slept well, the area felt safe and if you are into baseball, horses or bourbon it would be a great place to stay a couple nights for sure.

Quiet getaway

The Bourbon Belle was the perfect location for a quick, quiet visit to Louisville. The home was cozy and comfortable, very convenient to downtown and distilleries and for hopping on/off the interstate. We’ve already recommended to friends that have Louisville and tastings in their travel plans. Thanks to Karen and Ken for sharing their stylishly updated shotgun house!
