The 50' x 25' saltwater pool, is surrounded by mature perennial gardens and has a baby pool (pool is open seasonally, early-May to mid-September, depending on weather). Pool is NOT headed but should be pleasant during the summer.

Situated on one of the most elite streets in the city, in prestigious Seneca/Cherokee Gardens neighborhood just blocks from restaurants, shops and bars, and just steps from famed Cherokee Park. Easy freeway access, close to downtown and airport and just a short 20 minute drive from Valhalla Golf Course or 15 minutes from Churchill Downs.

Hosts were easy to reach, communicated proactively, and very helpful in ensuring we had a wonderful stay. The home was perfect for our size group especially with the multiple hanging out areas.
Awesome house with tons of character. Hosts were amazing - met us to walk us through the house and then said reach out if we need anything. Our friends loved hanging in the kitchen and great room and with plenty of beds and bedrooms for our group!
The house is amazing! We had 4 couples and it worked so well. The host was very kind and helpful, we had no issues. It was a wonderful vacation and would love to stay there again! The kitchen was very large with a great island and bar area attached for all us to hang out and a great gathering room attached that we all could lounge around in. Deer wondered the property…a beautiful safe area!
Absolutely gorgeous home that was perfect for our multigenerational family gathering. Plenty of beautifully decorated living spaces for everyone to be together. The pool was a huge hit for adults and kiddos alike - so nice to have the baby pool as an option for our littlest family members. Lisa and Keith were extraordinary hosts. Thank you!
The home was absolutely beautiful, the layout of the bedrooms really allowed our volleyball team families to have personal space but still be together. Wish the weather was warmer for the girls to have enjoyed the fantastic pool on the property. We would certainly stay here again! Thank you for a great trip Keith and Lisa!!!
Check in was smooth
Owner met us at the door
The living space was very nice to play cards watch tv
Plenty of beds for our family
The pool was a Huge Favorite
The rental was very comfortable but needed a little going over to repair a few things. But overall, we had a very good time. Excellent neighborhood and plenty of anilities. Excellent pool and enough bedrooms for our family. Owner responded very quickly to all of our questions.
I hosted a group of employees in town for a large trade show and we could not have been happier with our choice to stay at Stonecote. Everyone was comfortable and had space for privacy, but it was a treat to be able to socialize at the end of every day somewhere besides a crowded restaurant or hotel lobby. Great experience for all and our hosts could not have been more gracious. We will be back next year!
My husband and I rented this house for our large family to attend our son’s wedding in Louisville. The house was perfect for our family. It was in a beautiful safe, quiet neighborhood surrounded by mansions. The gathering rooms were also large, which was great for hanging out. We did a lot of cooking and grilling at the house which was equipped with everything you would need.
Had a wonderful stay at the beautiful property located 9 minutes away from the Lynn Family Stadium.
Pool house was beautiful and we will be returning with our extended family to make use of this spacious house. Fully equipped with everything needed that makes a house a home.
This is an incredible estate! The house is amazing, and the pool is perfect for lounging and playing with kids. Each morning and night we saw several deer traipsing through the yard, and the front lawn is huge, Big enough to play lots of games. You’re super close to downtown Louisville if you want to venture out, but you won’t need to, we stayed for 4 days and we never felt the need to leave.
The home was beautiful. Indoor and outdoor flow worked well for large gatherings. The dining room was large enough for entire family to enjoy nightly dinners. The pool had a baby section that allowed smaller children to play but still be close to adults. Pool area was awesome.
The house is a wonderful place to stay. It is centrally located in the city which makes it easy to get around. In addition to a really nice kitchen, there are gathering areas which accommodate a large group very well. The pool had already been closed but looks like it would be great fun in the summer. I've already recommended it to several of my friends.
Ten of us enjoyed the privacy and luxury of Stonecote’s accommodations. We spent 7 nights with a fantastic amount of interior space and outdoor seating areas. The kitchen exceeded our needs even though we had such a large group. Our hosts were immediately accessible both for local information and a couple of easily remedied issues. Our best VRBO experience in the last 5 years !
The property was beautiful, there was 13 of us staying with plenty of room. The host was available and responded immediately when I needed them.The weather was a bit chilly so we couldn't enjoy the pool. The pool house was nice and located very close to the main house. The location was excellent and within 20 minutes from every where we wanted to visit. I would definitely come back!
The property was amazing with all the southern charm and beautiful grounds. Lots of amenities provided. Keith was wonderful. Any problem was responded to immediately. The pool was the highlight with the kids and adults alike. The boys played baseball in the spacious front yard while we sat on the front porch. It is such a beautiful property and would highly recommend it. We would love to come back.
We all said it was better than the pictures!! Spacious home. Clean, well-equipped and the hosts were very responsive. We had a couple little issues and Keith came right over to address. Beds were all very comfortable, kitchen was wonderful, and the salt-water pool with the fans to sit under was perfect. Multiple large game and sitting areas. We will definitely consider renting this again.
We booked this gorgeous home for a long weekend for a family of ten people. My brothers and I wanted to share time with our elderly parents, and we needed a place that was big enough for all of us and close enough to South Carolina that we could drive. This home was a perfect spot to celebrate life and time together. There was plenty of room and the kitchen is fabulous- 2 ovens, 2 dishwashers, a large gas stove, coffee bar, etc. There even is an additional dishwasher in the bar area. The house is wonderfully decorated, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed it so much that we did not even leave the property on Sunday. We used Instacart to get food to the house and just sat around and talked. It was great family fun!The hosts, Lisa and Keith, were there when we arrived to get us acquainted to the property. The house had everything at you could possibly need. My husband and I stayed in the pool house, which is large enough to live in permanently. Just a quick note here- the washing machine and dryer are located in the pool house. This was not a problem for us at all!!!I highly recommend staying in this property if you are visiting the Louisville area and the Bourbon Trail.
Our group of 6 couples enjoyed 4 fabulous nights at Stonecote. The house is beautiful, spacious, and extremely well-stocked with everything guests might need. There was ample room to gather at the dining table, in various places in the house, and on the front and back porches overlooking the lovely grounds. We had lots of fun preparing meals in the enormous kitchen and butler's pantry. We took full advantage of the 2 refrigerators, beverage refrigerator, and ice machine. The 3 dishwashers made clean up easy! The location was perfect for us! The house is a short walk to the park with lots of green space while still being only 20 minutes or less drive from everything else in and around the city. Our hosts were helpful and responsive during the reservation process and welcoming, gracious, and attentive during our stay. We felt incredibly well cared for and knew that - if we needed it - help was just a phone call away. There are many reasons why this property has so many 5-star reviews! It was truly one of the very best VRBO experiences I have ever had. Thank you, Lisa and Keith!
Fabulous house on a beautiful property. It was a wonderful place to celebrate the matriarch 's birthday - plenty of room for the whole family. And the pool was great!
This was the perfect spot for our family gathering! The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time together. The owners were great—very responsive and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Check-in and check-out were smooth and hassle-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would definitely come back again!
I could not recommend staying here more. We had a group of 8 and we all had more than enough room. The house is great, the pool house is great, everything was clean and the hosts walked us through the house to explain everything given the size which was really helpful. The hosts were awesome. Also the pool is really really nice if you come when it is open. The neighborhood is really nice and location convenient.
Very nice house with lots of character. Kitchen very well equipped for cooking for large group. Pool was amazing. Hosts were communicative, informative and very helpful.
