About this property

Riverfront retreat. Stunning view. Dock. 20 minutes to downtown Louisville.

  • Relax in restorative oasis close to home! Spacious 3200 square foot sparkling clean Ohio riverfront home in upscale area just off major Louisville highway. Gorgeous natural view of the wooded hills of Charlestown State Park across this lakelike section of the river. Large open concept area and generous deck overlooking the Ohio River, plenty of space for your whole group to mingle, yet ample space to spread out for solitary time. Enjoy housewide wifi and large screen tv in living area, comfy sectional with 4 recliners, tvs in every bedroom.

    Common area has a wall of glass with 3 doors opening onto deck, sunken living room, fireplace with easy-on electric logs, large fully-equipped kitchen, riverfront dining room with seating for 8 plus seating for 4 at adjacent counter. Four beautifully decorated bedrooms, all with queen beds. One also has a daybed with trundle, and one has a futon. Double-high queen aerobed available upon request. All bathrooms have showers, one has shower/tub combo, liquid soap, shampoo, hairdryers, and fresh towels.

    The yard has ample space for setting up games. Cornhole, giant Jenga, giant Connect Four, indoor shuffleboard, foosball and multiple board games/cards are included in rental. There is garage parking for 2 cars and driveway parking for 3 additional cars. (No street parking is allowed.) This is a peaceful get-away-from-it-all place to grill out on the deck as you watch the sun set, or relax with a drink and a good book down on the dock where you may spot a blue heron or hear the evening call of the loon. The dock has a kayak launch pad (bring your own kayaks) and you are welcome to tie your boat at the dock.

    Camp Husky is within easy driving distance of multiple bourbon distilleries and breweries, 2 golf courses, 20 minutes to Waterfront Park with the walking bridge and playgrounds, 20 minutes from downtown Louisville's YUM Stadium, the Belle of Louisville, Science Museum, Louisville Slugger Museum, Falls of the Ohio, Kentucky Center For the Arts, Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom, Churchill Downs, the Louisville Zoo and Splash Park, Shelby Trails and Woodfern Riding Center, and the Parklands of Floyds Fork where you can rent canoes or kayaks to ride on the creek or bicycle for miles along a paved bike path or enjoy the spray parks, playgrounds, and picnic areas. Up for a day trip? Rockin’ River Tours is an hour away, as is Rail Explorers (railbike tour) in Versailles. Mammoth Cave National Park and Noah’s Ark Encounter are both an hour and a half away, and zip-lining at spectacular Red River Gorge is two hours away. We are 3 miles from a major grocery store and restaurants including Blackstone Grill, Gustavo's, Captain's Quarters, Cunningham's Creekside, Veronica's, and several fast food restaurants. We are 9 miles from a large theater and major shopping centers.

River

This river house was GREAT! The owner was more generous than any we've had in the past and her book with home-made maps and ideas and brochures was most appreciated. Linens & towels huge, which I loved. Best views on the river. With lots of family in the area, it was great having a home base and will definitely try to book again if we get to do another week stay.

Great home for an extended weekend in Louisville!

We were in town for a family wedding and rented this home for an extended weekend. The setting on the river was wonderful, as were the views from the common area of the house. The kitchen/dining/family room area were perfect for 9 people, and the shuffleboard was an especially big hit. There was an abundance of comfortable seating, including four recliners. We also appreciated the numerous amenities including a great coffee bar. We'd certainly consider renting this house again if needing a place in the future.

Amazing Sister Visit!

This is the second time we have used this property. It suited our family needs 2 years ago, and we agreed that it would be a great location for a sister visit this summer! It was a "coming home" visit for us--there were 5 of us from 5 different states although we grew up in Oldham County. We spent most of our time enjoying the back deck watching the birds come readily to the feeders, gazing at the barges moving up and down river as the speedboats, houseboats, and wave runners steered clear, and simply contemplating the mesmerizing Ohio River. Our hostess answered immediately when we had questions, and she was more than accommodating when she had to gather the items we left behind! The home is clean and well organized, supplied with many conveniences. We might suggest having a supply of tissues and laundry detergent, but we honestly have NO complaints!

Camp Husky was amazing! The house was spacious and great for a group to gather or spread out. The area is a quiet get-away right on the Ohio River. We loved watching boats, barges, jet skis, and swimmers. Also great place for family with all kinds of games and dvd’s. The host was quick to respond. Will definitely stay there again if we visit that area.

The 10 out of 10 rating you see is accurate. Great home in nice quiet area on the riverfront with an amazing host. We stayed here over the Derby weekend with two other couples and would return again if we ever make it back. The host pays attention to all the details, and it shows. Thank you for the Kentucky hospitality from your Canadian guests!
