Convenient Location nice house
We stayed for 3 nights - house was clean and as advertised. Nice quiet neighborhood, nice backyard, we enjoyed sitting and watching birds and BBQing in the yard. Good location, easy to and from airport, and Louisville, waterfront park and pedestrian bridge were nice and close. House was clean, kitchen had what we needed. Would recommend to anyone needing a place to stay in this area.

False advertising
The property listings at six bedrooms, and it is only a three bedroom property. The property manager was on site when we got there, the hammock was broke, the hot tub was a very nasty. And the sauna is not as nice as it looks online. The property manager told us about his personal problems and had somebody mow the grass while we were outside playing basketball. Tyler verbally stated that he was going to refund us and he has not. He also is ignoring all messages. I asked a Verbo management or supervisor to call me. They said they would within 24 hours and I heard from them yet either .

Beautiful House, Great Location, Responsive Manager
My spouse and I stayed here for 4 nights along with 3 of our friends. The beds are really, really comfortable and the master shower was to die for. (I didn't use the other one but the other guests said it was pretty good.) The whole house was really clean and comfortable. Well, except for the dining room chairs, those were definitely not made for folks with big bottoms lol. Some of the starter stuff that was supposed to be stocked was not. We had a Duraflame log but no starter wood and the coffee area was not stocked. We had to have Doordash bring us sugar and creamer before we could have coffee the first morning. We didn't get the s'mores thing the other reviewers talk about so they are probably not doing that anymore. The hot tub was somewhat dirty and we had to mess with the chemicals to make it stop foaming like a bubble bath. However, once we wiped the nasty from around the waterline and got the foaming stopped it was very nice and we enjoyed it very much. We only used the sauna once but it was very clean and worked fine. Overall, we would definitely recommend this house if you have a reason to stay in the Louisville area! The manager was super responsive even at 9 o'clock at night. We really appreciated everything he did to make our stay great. He even mailed some things we accidentally left there back to us, at no charge.

Great House
We spent a long weekend in the house and it was perfect for our group. We had four adults and an infant, and there was enough space for all of us to feel comfortable. It's in a good location to Louisville (a quick 10-15 minute drive) if you'd like to stay away from the busy downtown area. The house is as pictured and has everything you might need for your trip. Communication with the owner was also easy. We really didn't have any complaints, but I would say that the yard is fenced in for your dog although there's about a four foot section of the fence between the neighbor's yard that is only large-holed chicken wire. It was ok for our dog because she's big, but if you had a dog probably 25 pounds or smaller, it could easily fit through the holes. There is a dog on the other side that seemed friendly enough, but I would be cautious if I had a small dog and would maybe take them out on a leash upon entering the yard at least the first time.

Perfect for us
This house was cozy and was in great location to Louisville. We brought our kids who are age 6-19 and our fur baby. Everyone was comfortable and had a good time. We enjoyed the hot tub it worked great in the freezing cold and enjoyed making s’mores (treat provide by owner) on the nice fire pit outside. Most the toiletries was provided even extra toothbrushes came in handy since my 13 yr old forgot to pack his. Plenty different flavored coffees provided as well which is a big plus for me. I love my coffee! My only suggestion is that the steps that go up to the hot tub need a non slip mat or something there bc in the freezing weather the water turned to ice making the steps super slippery. Overall this is a wonderful home away from home! I would definitely stay again.

Spent 3 days over thanksgiving with a couple family members. Enjoyed the house and the area a lot. House was clean, beds comfortable, and well supplied. Ate at Cluckers restaurant on the river, very nice. Visited the candy store in Jeffersonville. Kids loved it. Went to Derby playhouse theatre to see Santa show- wonderful! The fire pit, hot tub, sauna, outdoor area was superb. Ingredients for s’mores was nice touch, as well as the water in the fridge and the toothbrushes and toothpaste. Plenty of towels. Washer and dryer came in handy. Would stay their again if in the area.

Poor customer service
We arrived in the late evening, unpacked our belongings and settled in. The property appeared to be as listed on VRBO however in the morning my boyfriend and I discovered we were unable to use the yard due to hornet/wasp infestation surrounding the hot tub area (the hot tub was a huge reason why we chose this property). We immediately contacted the host who responded in a lackadaisical approach. Tyler came to the property with a can of spray attempting to rectify the situation however the problem was much more serious which lead us to contacting VRBO directly. The host became argumentative, condescending and defensive when we decided we no longer wanted to stay at the property. This lead to a 3 hour long mediation with VRBO, Tyler and ourselves. When trying to come to a solution Tyler became very petty and ultimately refused to refund or accept any accountability of the inconvenience. Ultimately we decided to leave as many of the property’s amenities were unusable. Total disaster, poor customer service, we wish we’d stayed home. Be aware of the autonomy given to hosts on VRBO, read policies before paying anything.
