    The Mansion is a wonderful place for large groups to stay! Full kitchen and lots of room to gather on the first floor was wonderful. Good parking. Lavish furnishings. It's absolutely stunning.

    This house is great for larger groups. There were plenty of bedrooms & bathrooms and spaces for the whole group to gather & hang out. 13 of us came to Louisville to run the Urban Bourbon Half Marathon & this was a great location for our stay. It was an easy drive from the airport, to downtown, to Churchill Downs. It is a bit on the noisy side at night, being in a flight path and near a train crossing, but it makes up for it in space and atmosphere! The host greeted us upon arrival & when the door code stopped working he was there quickly to help us get in. If you are looking for a place to stay with a large group, I’d definitely recommend this house.

    This historic home was absolutely beautiful and a wonderful place for my friends and I to stay to celebrate my 50th birthday with a tour of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. Plenty of space, very comfortable and a wonderful vibe for the trip. Only feedback would be that the handles on a couple of the showers were not working properly and should be fixed and the hot water temp was way too hot and should be adjusted for safety. Overall, a beautiful home conveniently located near downtown Louisville, would rent from again for other large party events!

    Myself and 15 others stayed here for a bachelor party. It was a great place. Plenty of space and room for people to sleep. Plenty of bathrooms and ahowers as well. Indvidual ac units in all the rooms. And the location is centeally located in Louisville. We went wverywhere from there, and nothing took to long to get to. The operators of the property were very friendly, helpful, and communicated very well. The history of the mansion was also pretty radical. Overall a great place to stay!

    Me and about 13 women stayed here for my bachelorette party. We loved the house and it became one of the main talking points of the trip. It’s beautiful. It has some original finishes from the late 1800s but has been updated where needed, although it maintains the charm of an old mansion. It’s very clean and spacious. It’s not like cramming a bunch of beds into one room so the host can say it sleeps more people. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms so that we felt like we all had plenty of space. The owner is very responsive and will even meet you at check-in to go over the history of the house and to show you how things work. I highly recommend this property.

    Fantastic historical home and our host Thomas was super. We came here as 16 adults celebrating a milestone birthday and there was plenty of room for all of us. Wish we would have done the guided walking tour of the neighborhood but ran out of time! Home has all the basic needs covered but could use a few spices in the cabinet for cooking. Thomas lives in the neighborhood so gave us some great recommendations for dining. Would come back again.

    This was a great place for a group of 15 to stay! We had enough bedrooms for everyone, everyone had a bed and no one shared rooms with another couple. It was clean and had enough bathrooms. It was very easy to Uber from here to head down to Whiskey Row or ride scooters around town. The host gave a tour with some history of the house which many of our party appreciated! if you're looking for a fun, unique experience in Old Louisville, this house is it!
