Great place for a big group
My group of 8 had an excellent time time at the house. There were ample beds for all to have their own private room and many additional beds to spare. The space is a wonderful historical mansion, with clearly several additions over the years. The outdoor spaces are sensational! Great destination for a big group!

Derby weekend
The house was a good fit for the amount of people we had. Definitely an older home with a lot of history. We enjoyed ourselves. Thank you

Conference
This was a roomy house for a group of friends staying together to attend a conference in Shelbyville. The property was private and the grounds were lovely. The house has a lot of charm. It suited our purposes well. Some of the beds were in spaces that were living areas. That would be fine for kids or younger people- just be aware that a couple rooms are not truly bedrooms.

Bourbon Trail Bachelor Party
A group of 11 of us stayed here for my bachelor party and this property made the trip beyond special. The property was clean, private, and just as spacious as advertised (if not more). We had ample space to spread out and also be together as a group, each room had so much character, and it was fun to explore the bits of history in each room as well. Location is great because it's quiet and private, and also easy to call Ubers for the group when we went to different neighborhoods. Beena was also a fantastic host, very responsive when we had any questions, and made the whole process smooth and seamless. Could not recommend this property more for group gatherings of friends, families, and any other large groups!

Great for Family time
Thanks so much for creating such a wonderful space for large groups or families. We had 25 people coming in for a wedding and wanted to have some place that could host all of us and that would be comfortable for ages 2-70! We looked at hotels, but that is so restrictive! This place was perfect! Some of the family got in around noon and the host was great about letting them get in a little early. The grounds were beautiful. Everyone had their own space and we all had to shower and get ready for a 2:00 wedding. This place accommodated all of us! This older kids stayed in the family room and got to watch shows and have their time. My daughter and her husband have a 2 year old and a 6 year old. They had a room with 2 twins and a queen, which was perfect. The host even provided a pack and play for the 2 year old. We would definitely would stay there again. Host was very accommodating and very responsive. Thank you for a wonderful family weekend.

Wedding Party
This place is amazing! The host was so accommodating, making sure we had enough space for the 24 people who stayed with us and the extra 20 or so people who joined us for our rehearsal dinner. It allowed us to have everyone together at an affordable price in a beautiful place. It was close enough to downtown Louisville without being in downtown Louisville, and there are many fast food restaurants around as well as a Walmart right up the street that allowed us to go get things here and there as we needed them without driving all over the place to find a store! We truly had an amazing time here and can’t recommend it enough for large family/friend stays! Our stay was in winter, and we got really lucky with the weather, but I can only imagine how much more beautiful it is in the summer!

Beautiful Property, Great for a big group
We stayed at this property with a couple of other families for a nearby event. The first night we had some issue's with the garbage disposal, and couldn't figure out how to turn on one of the showers. The owner was very responsive and had the garbage disposal fixed the next morning, and even came by to show us how to use the shower. He even provided some soccer balls and racquets for the kids. On the last day, we had a later flight, and he adjusted the cleaning crew scheduling to come a bit later so we could check-out a bit later and wouldn't need to wait for hours in the airport. Between the very cool property, and the owner being so accommodating, made the weekend very memorable, and would definitely stay at this amazing property again! Thank you!
