    We all need a staycation or a trip to a different city from time to time. Whether you’re a Louisvillian feeling a little cooped up or a visitor looking for a special Derby City experience, picking the perfect home away from home is crucial.

    We went looking for unique lodgings around town that showcase that Louisville spirit. So choose your ideal digs, pack your bags, and get ready for a memorable getaway.

    Check into this quaint two-bedroom home outfitted with art-making supplies, musical instruments, books, games, movies, and more. Perched on a cliff overlooking downtown, this stay offers privacy with convenient access to the city.
