Louisville's Central "Lilly Pad"
Our Nightly rate now includes all Airbnb guest fees. We are very proud of our smaller home boasting a big personality with its cozy amenities that it offers. This is a shotgun style home which means that you enter through the enclosed porch area into the living room & the home goes straight back with no halls & an open bedroom area in between. Very typical of the age & style of this Schnitzelberg neighborhood. It is on street parking & most times parking close to the home is no problem.
