About the host
Hosted by Leenette
Hello, I am a Louisville KY native working full time that purchased the The Filly to renovate to host guests such as yourself. It has been a labor of love getting it ready and I am so excited to share it with you. My first love is running, so having Cherokee park just 2 blocks away is the perfect place for me. I also compete in body building competitions and love to do country western, swing and line dancing. I love to eat, and the The Filly is walking distance to some of the best food around with lots of options and prices to choose. I have a small boat that is the best money I have ever spent, and a beagle that is my baby, so bring your running shoes, appetite, boots and pups when you come to visit :)
Why they chose this property
I chose this property for the location. Located in the Highlands, known as the commercial corridor and the cultural center of the city, yet nestled in a traditional neighborhood that is the most sought out area in Louisville.
What makes this property unique
My previous guests speak better of my place than I can say myself. Below are just a few reviews.
Carolina October 2019
One of the most cleanest and pet friendly places I’ve ever stayed at! Our stay was welcoming and very homey. Not only is it located in a beautiful neighborhood in Louisville but easy access to Bardstown Road and everything it has to offer. Would definitely book again!!! :))
Abby October 2019
My husband and I stayed at Leenette’s place for our anniversary, and we could not have picked a better place. The apartment was so cute and cozy, and it was less than a 10 minute walk to the main strip of the Highlands which has tons of great bars, restaurants, and shops. We spent lots of time exploring the incredible neighborhoods! Leenette made us feel so welcome. Check in and check out were a breeze, and the apartment had everything we could have needed for the weekend. We can not wait to come back for our next stay!
Justin October 2019
The space is stylish and cozy. My top concern when staying at an air bnb or hotel is cleanliness and Leenettes place didn’t disappoint. The apartment is in a beautiful neighborhood and is a short ride to many of Louisvilles attractions. Check In was quick and easy. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat the next time I visit Louisville.
Allison August 2019
This was the perfect dog friendly location. Everything in the apartment was exactly as described, and it was sparkling clean. The neighborhood was awesome, old houses, parks and great restaurants and shops were within walking distance. Leenette was a great host - she welcomed us as soon as we arrived. The space was beautiful and she has done an amazing job with utilizing the space. We would love to stay here again and would recommend it to anybody visiting Louisville!
