Family/Pet-Friendly Riverside Home w/Amazing Views

The stunning views of the river and tree-lined shore beyond from your private deck
certainly steal the show when you stay in this recently remodeled getaway in a tranquil
location just north of Louisville. But there’s plenty to enjoy inside this beautifully
presented 2-bedroom home from home that features brand new (2023) flooring, plus a
new kitchen and bathroom suite. If you like an upscale family-friendly home with granite
and marble everywhere and you want genuinely stunning views, this beautiful place is
for you.

SINGLE LEVEL HOME
This is a step free, one floor home, granting guests easy access to all areas, which
makes moving around easy for younger guests and people with mobility issues.

THE LIVING ROOM
For those occasions when you’re not making the most of the wonderful nature all
around you, the living area features twin blue couches gathered around a coffee table.
It’s a great place to make plans for your next adventure, and to watch the large
flatscreen TV. Even bigger is the freestanding full length mirror that’s great for perfecting
your look just before you head out!

THE KITCHEN
Everything you see is new as the kitchen suite is just one of the remodeled features of
the house. Check out the list of amenities to discover everything that’s in here for you.
Highlights are sure to be the Keurig coffee maker for a delicious start to every day, and
the dishwasher that’ll save anyone wasting time washing up. There’s also a rice maker,
not something you’ll find everywhere you stay!

THE DINING AREA
There’s a table and chairs at which you can sit and enjoy all those delights you’ve
created in the kitchen, or perhaps food you’ve ordered in. Clear away the plates and you
can use the space for work and games (board games are provided).

THE 2 BEDROOMS
This family friendly home has a room with a double bed for the grown-ups in your group
and a second room with bunk beds that’s sure to appeal to the young and young at
heart. A flatscreen TV in the double room gives you viewing options if someone’s not
keen on what’s on in the living area. Both bedrooms have storage space for everyone’s
clothes and bags, so there’s no need to live out of your suitcases when you stay here.

THE BATHROOM
More shiny welcoming newness in this tiled treat of a bathroom. Start every day under
the glorious shower, and use the cabinet space under the sink to store all your toiletries.
There’s no need to bring towels as they’ll be provided by your hosts.

OUTSIDE SPACE
And so to perhaps this home’s most remarkable, wonderful, unbelievable feature, the
stunning views of the river and the tree-lined shore on the opposite bank from the patio
area. Now, you’ll no doubt have encountered many homes that say they have stunning
views, but this one is truly hard to beat. An uninterrupted view which you can enjoy from
comfortable quality seating on the deck.
Remember, staying here doesn’t just give you great views of the River Ohio, it gives you
easy access to the water too. If you’re bringing a boat, the boat slip gives you
somewhere moor it. Also in the backyard, there’s a firepit, great for gathering around at
the end of the day, and a BBQ grill to ensure that all the food preparation doesn’t have to
happen in the kitchen. The outdoor dining area gives you all somewhere to enjoy those
grilled delights.

FAMILY FRIENDLY FEATURES
Younger guests are welcome to stay here and are well catered for, with a crib available
as well as children’s dinnerware and a whole host of board games to play – if you have
time!

BRING YOUR PETS
This is a family friendly home, and your dog is a big part of your family, so they’re
welcome to join you here.

FREE PARKING
You can leave your vehicle right outside the property, giving you a short distance to
wheel your bags when you arrive.

LAUNDRY – WASHER AND DRYER
Spending lots of time outdoors which you surely will while staying here, can get clothes
a little dirty, but you can use the washer and dryer for free to keep on top of your laundry.

REMOTE WORKING
If you’re planning a workcation, this is the ideal spot with those inspiring views and plenty
of table space inside and outside for your laptop. And yes, the whole place is served by
Wifi.

YOUR AVAILABILITY / GUEST ACCESS
You’ll have full and private use of the house and the deck during the duration of your
stay, plus access to the river and use of the boat slip. It’s a single level, step free home,
making accessibility easy. Your hosts will be on hand to ensure your stay is as
remarkable as the view from the deck. Their contact details will be shared with you when
you confirm your booking.

YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
This riverside property nestles on the Kentucky / Indiana border just north of downtown
Louisville. It’s a truly beautiful part of the world that will afford you the chance to relax and unwind, enjoying being surrounded by nature and having easy access to Louisville.
Bring your boat if you’re lucky enough to have one, as there’s a slip where you can moor
it and access the Ohio River that runs right by the backyard. And if you can tear yourself
away from those picturesque views from the deck, there are other places you can drive
to from here, if you’re ready to explore the local area. These include:

 Harrods Creek Park -1.0 mile
 Downtown Kentucky Convention Center - 13.0 miles
 Kentucky Science Center – 13.3 miles
 Kentucky Derby Museum – 17.5 miles
 Churchill Downs - 17.5 miles
 Fair and Exposition Center – 17.7 miles

GETTING AROUND
You can park right outside this single level Kentucky home in a quiet, riverside
neighborhood. With a boat slip at the back and direct access to the Ohio River, you can
explore the area on the water if you like. Back on dry land, as well as your own car, you
can hire Ubers and get someone else to do the driving.

Amazing house with awesome views!
We stayed at the house for two nights while in town for a horse show. We had an amazing time and the house was perfect for us. The house had everything we needed and we really enjoyed the deck out back with the small fire pit and view of the river! Overall an awesome house.

Great location
Right on the river, great view. Convenient to the city, about 20 minutes. Front porch(first impression) needs some work…. Lots of empty boxes, used AC filters, and ant bait sprinkled everywhere. Door hinges also broken. An easy cleanup to prevent a bad first impression. Comfy beds, clean interior rooms. Just needs some TLC on the outside. Would stay there again though.

View
The view was great. House needed swept. It would be good to have a broom and dust pan incase of a mess and some cleaning supplies. The floor needs addressed with dips in the floor causing the wood flooring to crack in several places. Cynder blocks to hold up the couch was not appealing.

Could be really nice
Front entrance smells horrible. Inside house was nice. The back yard could be nice if deck area was swept and there was cleared access (have to walk though overgrown weeds) to the nice dock.

Nice spot on the river
I couldn’t give it five stars, it’s like 4.5. Pros - Quiet neighborhood Beautiful view of the lake Deck and a dock to hang out on Inside is very clean Bathroom and shower is just as shown Beds are comfortable, towels are fluffy Kitchen is stocked well with most things you need Cons - The front entrance is rough and smelly. The smell though doesn’t go into the house. The cushions for the deck furniture was sitting in a container that had water in it. We set them out for a day and let the sun take care of that. Side note - this place is secluded and takes you off the beaten path. Depending on who you are this is a really good thing or something to avoid. Overall excellent stay. Glad we did.

Quaint
We had a great time during our stay. Our entourage included my husband and I, 3 teenagers plus 2 large dogs. It was the perfect size for sleeping, but a little tight for hanging out unless you hang out outside on the hige deck over the river. The furniture is college dorm style, but works for the purposes we needed. All in all it is a cute little house and a great location.

Louisville Family get together
We enjoyed our stay at the River house!! We were in Louisville for a Family get together. The views from the deck were beautiful. Too bad the weather wasn't warmer so we could spend more time on the deck! We didn't spend much time at the River house, since we were there for a Family get together. It was perfect for my Husband, myself and our dog!!

Good place for the basics
We came to town for a family reunion- my aunt and uncle live about 8 minutes from this property, so we really didn't stay in the house often. Just there to sleep and shower, basically. I will say that this place works well for the basics! A clean place to stay, ample parking, with a kitchen and bathroom. I should also note some feedback for improvement- the couches and chairs in the living/dining space all had stains of some sort. Possibly food? There were no throw blankets which made the living room less cozy and inviting (especially because we were there when it was really cold in the mornings and I wanted to enjoy a hot tea on the couch while waking up). The back door didn't lock fully- the alarm on the wall kept saying it wasn't locked. Both fire alarms were beeping when we entered so we had to take out the batteries to keep them from chirping. There was no hand soap in the bathroom, so I borrowed some from my aunt. I think I'd stay here again if I needed to, but I'd have to come prepared with extras to make it more comfortable for me, personally.

Family visit to relax at the river
This freshly remodeled home right on the river was perfect for our three night stay. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. We’ve always been wildly active on vacation but are learning to relax. Watching the river from the brand new deck helped slow us down in a good way. The host was very communicative and helpful with any questions. I was hesitant bc of small number of reviews bc it’s new to the rental market, but took a leap of faith and it worked out well!
