We loved the property and the host was very helpful.
This property is located perfectly for our needs and Nicole goes above and beyond was a host.
What a fantastic weekend and all staged at this wonderful property. Owner was very responsive and everything was as advertised. It was a special weekend, a terrific location and a huge UofL win to boot. Thank you and God Bless
Peppermint Cottage was just perfect! It was super clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need while away from home. Nicole was a super host and close by in case of emergencies. I would highly recommend staying here.
Wow! Nicole was amazing! Her home was so welcoming and the extra touches she put in were beyond special! The neighborhood had great walkable restaurants and shopping. We hired a chef to come in and that was great too!
The house was perfect for our family to stay at for a convention. We loved being outside of downtown. The neighborhood is so nice and the house was very clean. She had any and everything you could possibly need for your stay. The beds were very comfortable, and she even left snack baskets for us with loads of snacks! We will definitely stay again when in the area.
Host and property were so awesome!
Friends and I stayed here during a bucket list trip to the Kentucky Derby, and the property and host couldn't have been better. Nicole was awesome, and the property was clean and as advertised. I'd highly recommend this property for any trip to Louisville.
Beautiful place
Excellent. Lots of goodies. Very well appointed… this host thought of everything.
My family and I stayed at the Peppermint Cottage for 1 month during our house renovation. I have stayed at 20+ VRBOs in the past and this place was by far the best. There wasn't a detail missed. The cottage provided so many games to keep my kids busy. The details of added necessary amenities and toiletries like paper towels, tissues, qtips, coffee, creamer and lotions was honestly beyond what is expected in a VRBO The king bed in the master was awesome. My husband and I sleep on a Tempur Pedic at home and this bed made us equally as happy. Nicole was so easy to work with and was always very quick to respond to any questions I had. I cannot wait to stay at this VRBO again! Thank you Nicole for a great month away from home!
We visited family for Thanksgiving. We decided to rent a VRBO instead of a hotel. Norton Commons is a beautiful community-it’s like Seaside, Florida. We arrived at 11 pm, but the lights were on, fridge filled with waters and 3 charcuterie trays. Coffee, real creamer, tea, oatmeal and all types of snacks were also sitting out. There were toothbrushes, toothpaste, feminine products, etc. also in each bathroom. We have stayed in VRBO’s for years and years, this was over the top. The house was clean and nice. Beds were very comfortable. Great stay! Nicole is very helpful.
Great experience overall
Nicole’s house was perfect for our girls trip. We were traveling from Columbus, Ohio and wanted to stay in a clean house that was walkable to restaurants/shops. Norton commons has a cute downtown with everything you could need. We spent one day exploring the neighborhood and the next day drove 15-20 minutes to downtown Louisville. Nicole is the perfect host! She thinks of every little detail and provides more amenities than any rental I’ve ever stayed in. Highly recommended!
This property is amazing! The community of Norton Commons was adorable as well. My daughter has been asking if we can move here! Nicole goes above and beyond from the ease of the check in/check out process to the extra little things around the house (coffee, water, snacks, toiletries). I will be returning the next time we are in Louisville. I would give this 10 stars if I could. Thank you Nicole for making us feel so at home.
We could not have enjoyed our stay more! Nicole was excellent at communicating with us and was helpful with sharing restaurant recommendations and local events. The house was very clean and by far the best stocked house I’ve ever stayed in. She thinks of everything! Absolutely would stay here again.
I’ve stayed at many short term rental properties over the years and I have to say Peppermint Cottage far exceeds what I’ve experienced in the past. The home itself is just beautiful, a lovely front porch and a private backyard including a fire pit. The furnishings and accessories look as though they’re straight out of a magazine. Nicole was a gracious host. She was communicative throughout the process. The kitchen is fully stocked and she even included an assortment of snacks, coffees and teas. The bedrooms are beautiful and very comfortable. The home is spotless, just gorgeous. I cannot wait to go back for another stay! Thank you, Nicole.
This is by far the best home we have ever stayed in. The host was phenomenal. The neighborhood was something out of a movie. The design and decor of the home was straight out of a magazine. This host thought of everything. From the Starbucks Keurig cups and snacks, to the toiletries, this host thoughtfully prepared their home for our maximum comfort. If ever in Kentucky again I will definitely stay here again.
Found this BEAUTIFUL house and I had to have it. All the decorations, HUGE mirrors and all other amenities checked all of my boxes for myself (bride) and 6 other bridesmaids to get ready for my wedding. Parking was a breeze, snacks were a cute surprise added, even had toiletries and water bottles availabe for us to use if needed, detailed instructions on accessing the property, etc. Nicole helped in every way possible to make my wedding weekend experience one to remember. She went out of her way to communicate, came over when I was unpacking to ask if we needed anything and check in right before we checked out to make sure we didn't have any questions. Overall, this space was amazing and hoping to get back to use it again!
