Germantown, located in Louisville, KY, is a unique blend of past and present which has made it an attractive area to both the young and the old. With plenty of restaurants and local attractions including Monnik Beer Company and historic Nords Bakery just blocks away from the home, there is something for everyone. This gem of a neighborhood is conveniently located within reach of several desirable destinations - only one mile to The University of Louisville, Churchill Downs 10 minutes away, downtown Louisville a few miles to the north and the NuLu district nearby. All this makes it quite clear why Germantown captures so much interest!

Beautiful home!
This is probably the cutest home we've ever rented on VRBO. It was super clean, had many amenities, and was a great space for a large group. I'd absolutely recommend it to those visiting Louisville or the Bourbon Trail!!

Great House, Great Location!
What a cute house! Comfortably slept 11 for a great family celebration. Conveniently located near Churchill Downs, Louisville Campus and other major attractions. Plenty of dining, craft beer and nightlife nearby. (Recommend Hauck’s Corner!) The backyard is spacious enough for Ladder Golf or Cornhole but bring your own if you can. My Dad is already talking about coming back for his 85th! Thanks Kristen! You were a great host!

Perfect Little House
We were there for a stock show at the Kentucky Expo Center and this house could not have been in a better location for us. It was quick access, easy to get around, in a wonderful neighborhood, just overall a great house for our 9 people!

Super clean, nicely updated home
This listing is just as the pictures are. It’s a VRBO where you are happy to see that the pictures are a true reflection of the home. The beds were very comfortable. The bathrooms were very clean. The home is nicely updated with very warm and welcoming touches. My only thing to say is the location. Driving into the neighborhood made me a little apprehensive. It’s a neighborhood very close to U of L. I wouldn’t walk anywhere at night. I didn’t not feel safe per se. There are a lot of families that live in the neighborhood. There is an airport very close by but the noise machines in each room drowned out any noise. All in all, it’s a very beautiful home with lots of great space for 3 families (10 people total) to have plenty of room. Having 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms was really nice for our week long stay.

Fabulous Stay
Property owner/management was very responsive, but not much was needed while we were there. The home was clean and all bedrooms/bathrooms we’re comfortable and well stocked with necessaries. Thanks for the Julips and a great stay during Derby week❤️
