Cottage vacation rentals in Jefferson County

Went to the Kentucky Derby with a group of friends. He graciously left us a derby care package at check-in. This place was perfect for 8 guys who just were looking for a place to sleep and have a BBQ in the driveway. Pillows could use an upgrade, and the closet in the bunk bed room had games and toys thrown about, but overall a good place to stay and worth the money of the rental.

If you’re planning a bourbon tour, this Airbnb is an absolute gem! We couldn’t have picked a better spot—close enough to hit several major distilleries but tucked away just enough to relax after a day of tastings. The location made it super convenient to explore the trail without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. The space itself was spotless, cozy, and well-stocked with everything we needed. Comfy beds, a great outdoor space to unwind, and even some thoughtful local touches that made us feel right at home. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and gave great recommendations for nearby restaurants and hidden gem distilleries we wouldn’t have found otherwise. We’ll definitely be back next time. If you’re into bourbon and want a perfect home base for your tour, look no further!

We loved our stay here and Cliff was wonderful. We were three couples and there was plenty of room. This house is larger than it appears from the pictures. We had an issue with the gate code being different than what we were given but Cliff was instantly available, very nice, and got us in. It's a beautiful home and we'd stay there again. Very quiet, places to walk, and clean. I think if you switched the bunk beds with a Queen sized bed from downstairs it would be set up better for Adult couples. Thanks so much for our stay and we loved our Kentucky trip!

Lovely location, loved the space, the back porch was such a lovely way to end the day with the hot tub. Super responsive, and a great central location to the bourbon trail! Definitely will stay here again when we visit this side of KY!

After the recent passing of my Mom, I needed a getaway to relax , unwind and clear my head . I wanted someplace cozy and private, surrounded by nature. I knew nothing of the area but was very pleased. So quite and relaxing. SUPER clean, very impressive, no details overlooked. While relaxing in the hot tub, you could hear an owl calling in the distance. Exactly what I needed. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage with us.

Great place. We would stay here again

I used this cottage to prepare for my wedding. It had great spaces for several people to get ready including a large area in the master bedroom upstairs. The wedding venue was right across the street. We stayed here for the weekend so we could setup and take down without having to rush. The jacuzzi out back was clean and private. The home was beautiful and comfortable. I would highly recommend!

We loved the warm welcome of flowers, snacks, waters, and bourbon gift basket. Everything was spotless and very homey. We had plenty of room in the kitchen and appreciated all of the different types of glasses etc for drinking and eating. We enjoyed our stay very much and appreciated all of the thought and time that went into making this cottage a great vacation retreat for the two of us.

Great Experience. The house had a beautiful view of a creek and had plenty of room for entertaining. Very clean and well kept, I would definitely stay here again.

This place is a little out of way, but so peaceful and beautiful scene. Very comfortable bed! Judith checked in a couple times via email to see if we needed anything, but we really had everything we needed. It was one of the best for us.

The cottage was very accommodating and very clean. It had everything we needed for our stay. Check in and check out was very easy. The host was amazing and very helpful. We would definitely recommend to others.

We’ve stayed here several times over the last few years and we plan on continuing to do so on our annual Kentucky trip.

We had a wonderful time staying at Jared’s cottage! Felt right at home! There was an issue with the hot tub but he had someone come out right then and there to take care of the issue. Very responsive and flexible!

Perfect for our weekend stay as we explored nearby distilleries. Quiet, tucked away place with lots of charm.

Such a peaceful, quint place! Julia and her family were perfect hosts…will definitely be back!

This is a good spot and was worth the price. It had everything our group needed and made for a comfy stay. The only things that I have that are even kind of negative are the lack of a few cleaning/trash supplies (no big deal, the host was graciously okay with us just piling stuff near the trash can on our way out) and the kind of creepy basement. But overall excellent place, exactly what you want out of a BnB in Louisville.

We truly enjoyed our stay. Everything was very clean and cozy; in fact, “cozy” was what our guests said about the cabin. Incidentally, we had somewhat of a small family reunion during our stay. We will definitely plan another trip. Thank you!

Perfect! The pictures do not do justice for this place. It was such a nice and cozy cottage. We felt so much at home. We were only about 12 minutes from town to go get dinner one night and a beautiful country drive there.. The rest of all the meals we cooked in the house and everything was there we needed. We did not want to even leave. We came down to visit the farm machinery show and tractor pull at the fairgrounds. It was a nice easy drive there. So nice to get out of the busy area to such a beautiful home and farm. We felt so safe. It rained the whole weekend, but enjoyed the cottage from the inside listening to the rain and thunder. Everything was so nice. We enjoyed looking through the books throughout the house. It was updated with new but still felt like you were in the original era of the house. I cant say enough how much we loved this place and can't wait to go back!

Very easy to find. Friendly gentleman, will go back again.

Thanks for the stay. Very unique. Pretty amazing view.

Meg goes above and beyond!!! Not only does she have the best view of the lake, the accommodations are impeccable from the screened in porch to the hot tub to the adorable kitchen and amazing sleeping accommodations!!! Every other cottage on Taylorsville pales in comparison!!! If you have not been, you need to check it out!!! There is a peacefulness and tranquillity that you immediately get as soon as you open the door to the #17.

The place was very nice. Very clean and quiet. Loved how peaceful it was the entire time. Can’t wait to come back and stay again.

Cute cottage right in Bardstown, really reminds you of how it was probably like hundreds of years ago, in a good way!

Loved the place. Loren was great to respond when I was booking. The house was perfect. We have stayed in the area before. Did have a problem with the hot water tank. She came up with a solution. Was able to finish our trip. thank you!
