Your Kentucky Story

Your Weekend at Cottage 37

Six moments that make this more than just a rental.

1

Arrive

Punch your gate code, wind through wooded hills. Cottage 37's warm lights greet you—park steps from the door, unload in two trips. By 6pm, you're unpacked and on the deck with a cold drink.

2

Settle

Claim your bedroom, explore the cork mosaic, flip through the guest book. Kitchen's stocked with bourbon glasses and s'more supplies. Everything's where you'd put it—because we vacation here too.

3

Relax

Hot tub at 104° under stars, deer wandering past at dusk. Morning coffee on the deck, wrapped in quilts, watching the lake wake up. No agenda, no rush—just exhale.

4

Explore

Jim Beam 28 minutes south, Maker's Mark 36. Rent a pontoon at the marina (8-min walk), hit Springhill Winery to sign your cork. Louisville's 30 minutes—Derby Museum, Fourth Street Live, bourbon bars.

5

Belong

Sign a cork for the mosaic, leave a guest book note. Grill burgers on "your" deck, nod to neighbors at the pool. Second night feels like the tenth—you're not a guest anymore, you're home.

6

Return

Sunday checkout feels too soon. You're already planning Derby Weekend or fall colors. 67% of our guests rebook—they know what you'll learn: Cottage 37 isn't a one-time trip, it's a tradition.
