This property was the perfect setting for our family retreat. The spacious and well-appointed rooms made everyone feel comfortable, and the beautiful surroundings offered plenty of opportunities for relaxation and bonding. The fully-equipped kitchen allowed us to prepare meals together, and the outdoor spaces were ideal for both quiet reflection and family fun. The location was serene, providing the perfect escape from our busy lives, yet still close enough to enjoy local attractions. Overall, it was a memorable experience that brought our family closer together with the help and kindness of the owners and Pixar!

We had a great family vacation here! It was just the right size for our 10 people which included 3 kids under 4, a teen and 6 adults. We really enjoyed the space; the screened in porch was the big winner listening to the waterfall outside, the pool and hot tub were well maintained. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home. We had everything we could have needed!

This was a perfect location for our group of 12. Alicia and Glenn were so accomodating for all our needs that we can't say thank you enough. My sons wedding was beautiful and staying here topped it off. Thank you

We had a dream to go to the Kentucky Derby. had tickets for 2020, well we all know what happened then. We had Family and Friends join in on the Adventure and the rental was PERFECT. I just hope we were not too loud after 10 pm. Thanks for everything. This had all the things needed for a comfortable stay for 14 people.

We stayed here with a couple friends for a tournament in Buckner and had a great time! It was off the beaten path just enough to feel secluded and was perfect for our stay. I even ventured out for a short run on the quiet country roads which made my heart happy :)

The purpose of our trip was to get away for a relaxing vacation. The owners were there to welcome us on our arrival and were very hospitable. We bought food and everything we needed to be comfortable was provided. Be aware that telephone signal is weak in this area depending on your provider but their wi-fi was sufficient to enable calls as well as stream movies. The waterfall was down a few days but was repaired soon after. It is amazing and glad we were able to enjoy it while there. All of the amenities from the pool, hot tub, treehouse(which my youngest loved) were awesome. I have stayed in many vacation rentals but this one is one of the best. I definitely recommend you stay here.

Great Getaway
The house was great for our family get together. The pool was really nice and we even visited a local state park for some light hiking.

Great for family gathering
I stayed there with my extended family to celebrate the holidays. We had a great experience and my daughter and nieces escecially appreciated the swing set.

Wonderful retreat!
This place was amazing! So many thoughtful details - coffee and spices stocked in the kitchen, plenty of towels for both shower and hot tub, and the beds and pillows - SO comfortable! The kids loved it, between the hot tub, frog pond, basketball hoop, playhouse and swing set there was something for everyone. The house itself is just so cool, beautiful decor. Can't say enough great things! We would love to come back!

Nice But Not What We Expected
No issues and it was a great property. Really nice owners but they actually live in the house they rent. The photos and description didn’t indicate this and we were surprised upon arrival. Even after reading the listing again we didn’t feel they made it clear they resided in the same house, along with their children. It all worked out and we just wanted a couple days away with friends so we made the most of it. I will definitely read all the details and ask questions in the future.

Bourbon Trail/get away
We had 3 couples that stayed here. We loved that anything we needed was there. The grounds were very nice. We had a bonfire which was started for us which was so nice. There was screened in porch were we played games in the evening. Hot tub was relaxing. The only reason why I did not do excellent for location was we had to drive a little farther for distilleries. I would stay again even though we had to drive further to get to distilleries. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay! Loved it !

Wonderful Waterfall Retreat Weekend
We really enjoyed checking out and enjoying each other's company this weekend. The home was well equipped with everything you need and want. The kids loved the pool and looking for frogs! The adults loved the hot tub! We made some great memories and would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday.

Big things!
When my 11 year old, my rarely happy 11 year old, said this was the perfect length for a great trip, something big has happened! I'd agree with him that this property is something special. It is well kept and seems "to have been built for a large family." The waterfall just outside the entrance is phenomenal! Apart from more time, my family couldn't ask for anything more.

Great GetAway for Families
The waterfall walkout is a great place to escape from the demands of the routine. Quiet, rustic setting, house is well equipped and nicely furnished. Grandchildren enjoyed pool, trampoline, creek, and large area to roam and explore. Waterfall creates great backdrop. Owner was great and responsive to all requests. Rooms were comfortable, bedding was excellent. We made 2 short day trips into Louisville-30-35 minutes away. Landscaping with rain and size of yard is a large task, but cutting grass just outside enclosed screen area and a little more attention to weed-eating on path to pool would have been appreciated. Overall, great experience, be aware that while it sleeps 12+ there is extra charge per person for large family group which was noted in booking process.

Great family getaway!
Our family had a fantastic time staying at the waterfall house! It was the perfect setup for our kids and also for my parents who came along for the trip. The kitchen was well equipped for making our meals and the kids had a great time in the pool. The interior was very clean and cozy. The exterior maintenance was a little lacking, but with a huge property like this, I can understand how it would be a lot to maintain. The Ahlers family was extremely friendly and great to work with. We would definitely stay again if we are ever in the area.

Beautiful, comfortable, clean!
We had a wonderful stay at the waterfall house! Our family gathering was very comfortable, all expectations met. The house was very clean, all amenities included - beyond what we are used to from rent houses. We enjoyed the waterfall, pool and other outdoor areas. Host were easy to contact and responsive to our questions. Highly recommended!

Rest, Relax and Enjoy
Over all we were very happy with our stay. A bit of a drive (40 min) to Louisville and 20 to grocery but we managed. Fire Pit only disappointment. To far from our beautiful patio location and kids sleeping, would have preferred that to be more private. Even if just a small fire ring. They are working hard to continue making improvements.

Great Girls Weekend Getaway
This place was made for a great girls weekend getaway. There were 8 of us and we were very comfortable. We wanted a quiet place to getaway and reconnect and this was perfect. The pictures are a great representation of the place. The Waterfall was beautiful and the sound of it was lovely. A special bonus was a visit from the owners' dog Pixar. The kitchen was well stocked - we had everything we could have needed- we cooked dinner both nights there. It was a easy drive back out to get to Lagrange for lunch.

The house was wonderful
Our family really enjoyed our stay. Everything was lovely. The owners were amazing and so helpful from lighting the fireplace and the gas grill. The price was right and we will be back.

Very nice with all the comforts of home.
We had a wonderful Christmas get together with my sons and grandchildren. The home was spacious and comfortable. The Kitchen was fully stocked and we really enjoyed the waterfall and fire pit. The kids loved the treehouse and the trampoline. The grands were asking when we could come back in the summer. We would definitely book this property again!!!

Wonderful place to get away with family!
We spent 5 wonderful days celebrating Thanksgiving with family from Ohio and Tennessee. Perfect halfway point for everyone to meet. The house and property are beautiful and the owners Alicia and Glenn were kind and gracious. We had plenty of space to relax indoors with a nice fire pit outside and plenty of things for the kids to play on (treehouse, trampoline, volleyball net, etc). I can’t say enough good things about our time there and fully plan to go back!

Great home in the country but close to the city
This home and the owners are way above average, boardering on excellence. We didnot want to be twenty feet from our neighbor, so the country location was perfect. We wanted to be no more than an hour's drive from all the places of interest - worked perfect. The house is large enough that we were not in each other's way. The weather prevented us from taking advantage of all the outdoor activity at the house, but it was a great place to home to. Will rent again.

The Waterfall Walkout Is Beautiful!
Our group included myself and my husband and my 2 sisters and their spouses and my 2 nieces and one adult child and we had sufficient space. Every amenity was provided for and great care has been taken to make sure every detail of every need is met in the house. The screened in porch was really nice for visiting. I would say this would be a great space for a get away where you are not going in and out of town a lot and also, it's not necessarily the best place to take toddlers and children below school age just because it is geared toward adults and the kids like to mess with all of the pretty stuff that is around. The driveway is single lane, steep and long but not impassible with normal passenger vehicles. There is no cell service in the house and limited service occasionally outside. Since we arrived during storms the internet was down but it eventually started working again and they had wifi there as well as a landline. This is the perfect getaway for relaxing, no doubt. You hardly knew anyone was there even though you know a whole family was above you. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone. The decor lets you know they love God and are praying people and you also know you are supporting a good work by staying there! Thank you Ahlers family for making such a lovely space!

This was the perfect spot for our group of ten women.
The kitchen was great and had everything you would ever need. The porch and outside space were great as well. Since it rained we were able to sit outside and play cards and hang together. Most of all, the family was really lovely and welcoming. They all came down and, being a choir group, we sang for them, and their daughter Hope sang for us a couple of songs she had written. They were lovely. We all visited together for quite a while and it was the highlight of our trip. and although it is in the country, it is very close to La Grange, which is a cute little town. We also went to a botanical gardens and Artisan Distillery for a tour. They were both great and really close by. It was nice to go on an outing and have a great space to just be together with your friends. I would recommend it to anyone.

Tranquil getaway!
The homeowners put all the extra touches one doesn’t get at a hotel! Bath salts and toiletries. And of course the beautiful waterfall view which was lite up at night to make the stay extra special! The owners were very responsive to all questions since I this was my first booking at HomeAway. Big kitchen and bedrooms. Saw lots of wildlife from our living room window!

Wish We Could Have Stayed Longer!
Glenn greeted us upon arrival which was very nice...told us if we needed anything they were there for us. The Waterfall Walkout makes a great first impression from the moment you walk through the door and only gets better once inside! Everything was beautifully maintained and it was by far one of the most clean rentals we have seen...and we have rented at least 70-75 houses over the years in our travels!!
Unfortunately, we didn't get to truly enjoy all it had to offer, as we were staying there for the Kentucky NASCAR races which were 3 night races each of the nights we stayed. However, with the time we were able to spend, it had everything we needed and provided a peaceful, homey, immaculate place to rest. We already said we will be back next year and hope to stay longer, explore the beautiful property, and truly enjoy all this place has to offer!
I highly recommend the Waterfall Walkout...it's a hidden gem!! Thank you Glenn and Alicia for making the entire process painless!
