The Chestnut - Nulu

Property was within walking distance to many great restaurants. Exactly what we were looking for to feel more like home. Neighborhood is quiet for the most part except the occasional helicopter in the middle of the night. Host is great with communication.

Overall, it was a great place to stay. It was close to everything. 5 minutes from 4th Street Live, 5 minutes from the ballpark and Angel's Envy. Multiple breweries very close by. The place was very comfortable and quiet.The not so great... A/C unit was broken when we got there. Scott came out right away to check on it and realized it wasn't fixable. He brought window units that night and installed them. Very quick to respond. His electrician was at the place on Tuesday to assess. We planned to sleep in on Wednesday but had the A/C guys there to replace the whole unit, so they were in and out of the house all day. Nice team, but we essentially had to share the house for the first 3 days of our 5 day vacation. That was a bit frustrating, but cannot control Mother Nature, but hoped for a little price break.One thing to mention is the master bathroom. There is a claw foot tub with a shower and wrap around curtain. Showering was a challenge because the curtain attacked you from all sides.If you are looking for a convenient place in Louisville, you cannot go wrong. The A/C was a one time thing. Everything else about the place (save the hostile shower curtain) was fantastic. I would definitely stay there again.

Great little property in a perfect location. We really enjoyed our stay.

Was able to park in front of house and neighborhood was quiet and nice. Had issue getting into house as had received an access code that was later changed and not communicated. Not sure why would be sent a code that would later be changed. Had to sit outside the house for about 30 minutes while getting into contact with host and getting the right code. House was clean inside but outside porch, walks, and deck were somewhat dirty. Was reasonably well equipped but had a number of maintenance issues. e.g. Had to problem solve and fix no internet access, coffee maker had to be replaced, gate at front of property drags on sidewalk and difficult to open. Host was fairly responsive to address issues.

All good

Wonderful! Dreamy, very clean! I’m not the savviest and completely missed the wonderfully informative message the owner sent with everything I needed to know how to get in. The owner was SO quick respond and we got in and the place was wonderful and very cute and every detail was covered including makeup remover wipes which was just what k needed. There’s even a cute bar cart with a cocktail recipe book and cards! And for me the best thing was : A CLAWFOOT TUB!! What? Perfect perfect stay. Thank you!

Parking was very good under the awning in the back. The alley could use some clean-up work. The host came over right away when the entry lock wouldn't work correctly. The only major complaint that we had was that there were ants in the kitchen (we left a note for the cleaning crew to spray the kitchen counter where we saw them).

This was a great place to stay during my trip down to Louisville

I’ve used VRBO for years and have never left a negative review, but this experience raises serious safety and integrity concerns.We booked this home for one night. Upon arrival, the keypad/deadbolt malfunctioned repeatedly, making both entry and securing the home difficult. Inside, there were multiple maintenance issues, including dim lighting, a non-working ceiling fan light, sloping floors and a loose, unresponsive thermostat.The most serious issue occurred when we returned around 12:30 AM. The bathroom window was not just unlocked—it was open, had no screen, and would not lock. It was large enough for someone to easily enter the home. This is a significant safety risk, not a minor issue. The host stated it was an original window (1900) and claimed he was unaware, which is unacceptable for a rental property.Because we did not feel safe, we gathered our belongings to leave. While doing so, we discovered a trap door hidden under rugs, which further heightened our concern. We left immediately and drove nearly four hours home in the middle of the night.The host initially agreed to issue a refund but later refused, making false claims that we stayed overnight and misused the property. This is inaccurate—we left shortly after returning due to safety concerns.Due to the security issues and the host’s failure to honor a stated refund, I cannot recommend this property.

A very nice property with great location. Perfect for a quick visit to Louisville.

The house has old charm with modern conveineces. Scott was super friendly and reachable. Great location and nice to have a place to park behind the house.

The host was very communicative and helpful. The house is clean, beautifu, and spacious! Great location

Host was very responsive. The house was nice, loved the parking in the back since we couldn’t ever find a spot on the street. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a very spacious home with all the amenities you would need! Scott was helpful and a nice host.

Spacious, clean home exactly as described. I appreciated the comfy King mattress, covered parking in back, and convenient location.

Scott is the perfect host! If we could give more than 5 stars, we would. This is a cute little house in the perfect location. 15 minutes from the Louisville Slugger Museum, 20 minutes to Mega Caverns and Lights Under Louisville, several churches and great restaurants are nearby. The neighborhood was quiet, the house is well-equipped with basic essentials (and great coffee). We’re saving this one for another trip to L-vil.

The house was perfect. Clean and lots of extra motor touches made for a great weekend

Great shotgun house. Very clean and well equipped. Unique home. Master bed was not the most comfortable. I’d suggest a better mattress and frame. But overall, we were quite please with our stay. Thank you.

Very spacious.

This house was huge!! And the back car park was so convenient. It had everything we needed. We’ll definitely stay here again!!!

Great stay! Wonderful communication pre- and during the trip. The house was roomy and had just about everything we could need. It was walkable to some of the locations we were visiting, and easily driveable to the rest. We loved the car parking in the back and appreciated the clear instructions provided in the book in the kitchen. We did stay in the secondary bedroom to have better access to wall sockets for overnight charging, but both rooms were very comfortable. All around great stay!

Property was clean and the neighborhood was fun

We had a great stay. This property was MUCH larger inside that it appears on the listing and gave us plenty of room to spread out and have our own space, or spend time together in the kitchen and living room. The covered parking was an added bonus! Would definitely recommend staying here and consider visiting again.

Great property, pristine and clean and conveniently located with good parking.

Stayed for the st.james festival

Great little cottage in a great location. Scott was a great host and had some great advise on spots to check out. Little hiccup with the door lock but Scott was there in 10 min to get it sorted for us.

Perfect location for our weekend plans. Convenient parking, short walk or cheap Uber to restaurants and Whiskey Row distilleries.

Everything was great!

Great

What a beautiful space! We only stayed for one night, but the beds were comfortable, the house was clean, and the instructions and communications with Scott were excellent. Thank you for making a short stay pleasant and easy.

The house is adorable and beautifully restored inside but with a little bit of exposed brick for authenticity. Parking is in the alley so you don't have to jockey for street parking. Very nice stay.

The neighborhood was very quiet and an easy walk to the Nulu area. We enjoyed our stay immensely. The house was lovely and quite comfortable for our family trip.

Had a great time

The home was lovely but the neighborhood was definitely not Nulu.

This property was perfect! Very well kept, clean, and everything you need. We loved the location as we walked to whiskey row every day and it was easy to get in and out. There is a covered area to park your vehicle behind the house. We will definitely stay here again.Pat and Wendy

This place was great! It was a convenient location close to everything we wanted, super clean, and had any amenity we needed. The binder of recommendations was also super helpful. Highly recommend!

We stayed here for a

This is an awesome place to stay, felt like home. The beds are really comfortable. We made a great choice in choosing VRBO instead of hotel!!

Business trip The house was perfect for our stay

Scott, was such a great host. Communication was outstanding.

It was easy getting in and out and it was much larger than we thought

This cute little house was perfect for our stay. Plenty of room for 4 adults. Loved the location. Easy to get downtown to the Yum Center as well as the other great attractions downtown. Visited Louisville Slugger Museum. Also did 2 different Evan Williams Bourbon Experience. This house is also very close to all the great shops & businesses on East Market Street. All within a 5 minute drive. Our host provided an easy check in process, gave us some great recommendations for food & beverages. Any questions or concerns were answered & resolved very quickly! Definitely would stay here again when in town!

Clean and updated. Great host! Parking in the rear of property with covering.

Scott was a great host. House was nicely decorated with comfortable beds and hot water for showers. There is parking in the back with a covered awning that made getting the luggage very easy. Would definitely stay here again.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The home is amazing and is very close to several restaurants. The host is very responsive to requests. I would love to stay here again.

Large spaces, great decor. Adorable neighborhood!

Scott went out of his way to make sure we were taking care of!
