About this property
Estate: Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Game Rooms, Pets
A KENTUCKY COUNTRY HOME FOR TIME TOGETHER
If you’re the one choosing the house for everyone, you already know the challenge: finding one place where grandparents are comfortable, kids have plenty to do, teenagers actually come downstairs, and the adults can relax too.
That’s what Glencairn Knoll was made for.
Set on 3.75 private acres near Louisville, Glencairn Knoll is a beautifully updated 1958 Kentucky country home with the warmth and character of an established property, thoughtfully set up for the way families travel today.
Five king beds mean no bad room assignments. A main-level suite gives grandparents or anyone avoiding stairs an easy option. Two separate upstairs wings add privacy. And with a pool, covered hot tub, game rooms, karaoke, indoor play spaces, a large kitchen, and nearly four private acres, the house itself becomes part of the trip.
Children follow mystery clues and make snow cones. Teenagers head for the arcade or pool. Grandparents join the games. Someone who swore they wouldn’t sing ends up with the karaoke microphone.
And the person who planned it all gets to enjoy it too.
AT A GLANCE
• 5,500 sq ft on 3.75 private acres — room to gather and spread out
• Sleeps up to 12 — built for multigenerational stays
• Five king beds + queen sleeper — no bad room assignments
• Main-level suite — easy for grandparents
• Two upstairs wings — added family privacy
• 38-ft saltwater pool — all-day fun
• Covered 6-person hot tub — year-round unwinding
• Two game areas + karaoke — rainy-day backup built in
• Chef’s kitchen + 2 refrigerators — easy group meals
• Firepit + gas fireplace — cozy gathering spaces
• Nearly 4 private acres — room to roam
• 20–25 min to Louisville — close to the action, away from the noise
• Pet-friendly for up to two dogs
WHY IT WORKS FOR 12
Plenty of homes technically sleep 12. Glencairn Knoll was designed to make 12 people comfortable.
Ten guests sleep in five king beds across four spacious bedrooms. Two additional guests can use the queen sleeper sofa with an upgraded mattress in the separate Speakeasy Lounge.
The main-level primary suite has its own private bathroom.
Upstairs, the home divides into two wings, each served by its own full bathroom.
That means different generations and family units can stay under one roof without feeling on top of one another.
“Three families, each had their own ‘wing.’” — Monte

MADE FOR GATHERING
Glencairn Knoll is especially well suited to multigenerational family trips, grandparents-and-grandchildren getaways, milestone birthdays, holidays, reunions, and wedding weekends.
Instead of twelve people scattered across hotel rooms, you get one place to actually be together:
Breakfast in the same kitchen.
Kids in the pool.
Grandparents on the porch.
Teenagers downstairs playing games.
Everyone back together for dinner.
“Our favorite home to rent—and we’ve rented a lot over the past 10 years.” — Holly, Kentucky
FRIENDS, COUPLES & BOURBON COUNTRY
The same layout also works beautifully for longtime friends and couples traveling together.
Five king beds mean grown adults don’t have to draw straws for the good room.
Old Forester, Angel’s Envy, Kentucky Peerless, and Evan Williams are approximately 20–25 minutes away in downtown Louisville.
Explore during the day.
Come home, pour something good, and stay awhile.
DOGS WELCOME

We provide bowls, treats, a pet bed, and furniture blankets so your dog can settle in comfortably.
Up to two approved dogs are welcome. Pet fee: $100 per dog, per stay. Dogs are not allowed in the pool or on the pool deck. A signed pet agreement is required.
LOCATION — LA GRANGE, KENTUCKY
Country quiet. City convenient.
Glencairn Knoll sits on 3.75 private acres in La Grange, approximately 20–25 minutes from downtown Louisville.
Groceries and gas are about 5 minutes away, and charming downtown La Grange is nearby.
You can explore Louisville, Bourbon Country, horses, restaurants, and Kentucky attractions—then come back to a private country retreat.
“Comfortable luxury.” — Jean, Kentucky
THE KIND OF LUXURY WE BELIEVE IN
Glencairn Knoll is a beautifully updated 1958 country home.
Its character is part of what we love about it.
This is not a precious house where everyone has to worry about touching anything. It’s made for real vacations—wet swimsuits, pancake breakfasts, cannonballs, grandchildren, dogs, karaoke, birthday cake, and conversations that run later than planned.
Polished enough to feel special. Relaxed enough to actually enjoy.
More than anything, Glencairn Knoll is a place for connection—a place to swim, laugh, cook, play, slow down, and enjoy the people you worked so hard to bring together.
Built for Joy. Made for Generations.
If your dates are available, we’d love to welcome your family or group.

My family enjoyed the house. We loved the pool and hot tub and there were so many other things we could do while staying in the house. The kids loved all of the games and the karaoke. The house fit our needs perfectly and the hosts were very kind and helpful.
This place was incredible! Has everything you could possibly need and more. It was one of the cleanest and homey places we have stayed. The beds were SO COMFY and the place had everything you could need. Thank you so much!!!
We had the best experience staying here. From the gorgeous property, fabulous pool, to the excellent communication from the host. 10/10 definitely would recommend and would stay there again. We did not want to leave!
This is an amazing property, very well appointed and many thoughtful touches. (Our grandkids loved the snow cone machine!) It's close enough to Louisville for all the tourist sites and activities but far enough away for peace and privacy. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well supplied. There are several cabinets reserved for guests' food which doesn't always happen!The pool and hot tub are great. The pool cover takes a little extra effort but is worth it.An air conditioner unit that cools 2 of the bedrooms broke but was dealt with promptly. Communication was exceptionally responsive.
This place was gorgeous. Very quiet area and lots to do within driving distance. The pool was beautiful and it was fun for the whole family. Communication with the owner was the best we have had with a vacation rental
This is one of the most fabulous properties I have ever stayed at. I brought my family to celebrate my doctoral graduation, and it was truly a pleasure to work with Deb, the host. I highly recommend this property if you’re looking for a peaceful, family-oriented space where you can have a great time.
My dad, brother, and I did a little boys trip for a few nights there. Wanted to get out of the hustle and bustle of our business in the city. What an awesome spot to get away for a few days to unwind and recharge the batteries. One of the cooler and nicer properties I’ve had to opportunity to stay at! Definitely would book again!
We had an incredible five-day stay at this fantastic house, which offered endless family-friendly activities including a pool, hot tub, karaoke, pool table, foosball, and firepit—none of the kids or adults wanted to leave! The owners were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, making this place highly recommended for an unforgettable family getaway. 5 stars for sure!!!!
This place was amazing it had everything you could ever need fully equipped kitchen with spices, coffee,all small appliances even a basket of snacks,beach towels for hot tub,all kind of games,even bath bombs,the most relaxing front porch with rocking chairs,all of our grandkids absolutely loved it and wished we could have stayed longer. The hosts were amazing in every way and was there if we need anything. This home was so fun we never left our whole stay.
We had a wonderful time at this amazing property. Deb was an amazing host. She was readily available to answer any questions we had. The property is absolute perfection. There is something for everyone. The home is beautifully decorated, the rooms are spacious, and the beds are comfortable. There are also great amenities like a pool, hot tub, and fire pit. We highly recommend this property.
We had the most amazing time with our children and our good friends. The teenagers always had some activity to do, the younger kids loved the pool and exploring the house, and the adults loved that the home had something for everyone. We rarely left the house because it was the perfect calm vacation that we all needed after a busy few months. The home itself is immaculate. Getting to cook in the beautiful kitchen while having countertop space for everyone to hang out, as well as additional tables and chairs close by made it the perfect set up to spend time together. Deb was phenomenal at communicating and we are so grateful we got to have this time together making memories that will last us a lifetime.
We celebrated our first baby turning 12 at this amazing house. From day one, Deb answered all my questions before I even booked the house. She sent me ideas about what we could do on the trip. I travel with a lot of stuff. I did not even need any of it. The house was fully stocked with anything you would ever need. She even left flowers and a balloon for my baby girl. The house is well-planned, from the decor to the layout. The kitchen bar was so amazing. The beds felt like heaven. The pool and hot tub were so clean. We travel a lot. And this was, hands down, our favorite house. We pulled back up at home, and all looked at each other and said we missed our Kentucky house already. The neighbor is building a house, and there were no problems with that either. They were quiet and we did not even know they were over there. If you are thinking about booking this house, do so now. You will not regret it. We loved it so much.
Our stay was incredible! The most amazing amenities and they have every age in mind for things to do. Games and even a karaoke room! They even have a scavenger hunt to compete as couples or families - such a treasured time. The pool and outdoor space is phenomenal. The master bathroom is to die for. The beds, are so comfortable and the bedding makes it even better. This home, the space, and the property is just so incredibly stunning. Communication with the host is perfect. If we are ever this way again, we will be staying here! We had the best time!
Had such a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, fun and exactly as described. The host Deb was responsive, and made everything easy for us. Would definitely stay again!
An amazing house! Big kitchen, spacious bedrooms, and a basement that has entertainment for hours with games and karaoke. A pool and firepit area. We loved having privacy, and this house was perfect! The owner was very responsive and helpful.
Great overall property and great homeowners. We had an issue with the kitchen refrigerator and the homeowners reacted and responded very quickly. Deb was fantastic!
This house and property were gorgeous. Perfect for a weened getaway with friends and family. We had the best time and host Deb made every detail seamless. Would highly recommended this property!
This property is a hidden gem. We used it for a family vacation with our adult kids and our grandchildren. The house was spacious and the pool was fantastic. The host Deb was very responsive and genuinely wanted us to have the best time. She truly cares about her guests and their comfort. I would highly recommend this property and will definitely book again in the future.
When I say this property’s description undersells what it truly offers, I say that sincerely.
Our family came here for our first meaningful gathering together, and from the moment we booked, Deb went above and beyond to ensure our stay would be more than we imagined. Weeks before our arrival, she took the time to answer every question with genuine care, warmth, and attention to detail.
The property itself is nothing short of magnificent. Every amenity is thoughtfully explained, with clear notes and instructions that remove any uncertainty and allow you to fully relax. The level of organization, preparation, and thoroughness reflects an extraordinary investment—not only in the home itself, but in every person fortunate enough to stay here.
What makes this place truly exceptional is the heart behind it. You are not treated like a reservation number; you are welcomed like family. There is a rare sense of peace, healing, and comfort here that cannot be manufactured.
We originally planned to do much more during our trip, but simply being here became the experience. This property provided exactly what we needed: connection, serenity, and lasting memories.
If you are considering staying here, do yourself a favor and book it. You will not regret it. What Deb has created is more than a place to stay—it is a gift.
