We were SO impressed with the personal, friendly touches! Snacks, water, tea and coffee welcomed us. Beautiful decor. Quiet neighborhood. Quick answers when we did have questions. Best place we've stayed on this trip, and we have been traveling for eight weeks.

Only a 4 on location/neighborhood due to parking and we thought it would be a little closer to Bardstown Rd. Other than that, a great experience!

Truly a Happy Place
Our stay at the Highlands Happy Place was perfect! The apartment was just as described, nicely decorated, clean, and perfectly stocked. There was not one thing our group of 7 were needing or wanting that wasn’t there. The snacks and water bottles were much appreciated to tide us over until we were able to get to the store. James responded promptly and was very friendly and accommodating. Oh, and the neighborhood was nice, safe, quiet and the neighbors we met were very friendly. I hope we have a reason to return to Louisville. We will for sure stay at the Happy Place again! Thank you!!

Absolutely Perfect
3 Moms 4 Teen girls and we had a wonderful stay! We felt safe (apartments next door but no issues) off street parking, nice restaurants near by. Owners Very accommodating and this unit was very comfortable and adequately equipped for short or long term rental. Please note you will see posts about a baby gate. Its at the top of a stairwell to an exterior door only. Its made to sound like it separates from a living area down stairs. Not the case. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you for your hospitality!

Teacher Conference
Absolutely loved this property! It was perfect for our group of four, and the amenities were above what was mentioned in the description. It was perfectly located between the airport and the conference venue we were in Louisville attending. Several dining options are just over a mile away, and a cute coffee shop is less than a half a mile away for coffee lovers! James was awesome to deal with, and answered messages in a timely manner. Checkout is 10 am and we didn’t need to head to the airport until around noon . . . James allowed us to leave our luggage at the property while we walked to a restaurant to have brunch! That was extremely helpful and kind! I will definitely stay here again when in Louisville!!!

This place was perfect for adult children + their spouses looking to establish some space/boundaries with local Boomer parents. In all seriousness, very accessible and great location! The space was clean and well appointed. We greatly enjoyed our stay for Thanksgiving!

The apartment is exactly what we needed. It was enough area for all of us. We wasn’t on top of one another. The washing machine was great to have to watch the show close both bathrooms were wonderful and the beds were magnificent. We look forward to it for next year.

Perfect for a Louisville Getaway!
The property was even better than the description and pictures revealed. Not only is it super close to everything in Louisville, the neighborhood has a safe-suburban feel. They also had coffee and snacks available (which my kids loved!) and there were the most delicious fresh baked cookies waiting for us when we arrived.
