9790 Shelbyville Rd is a 6-bedroom vacation home on the Bourbon Trail that sleeps 12, from $300 a night, with game room, golf simulator, hot tub. It is owned and managed by the Hillenmeyer family and books direct with no service fee.
The house
Picture it: the Kentucky hills roll out in every direction, the pool shimmers in the afternoon sun, and twelve of your people are already arguing over who gets the golf simulator first. That is a Sixgen Rentals estate — 10 private acres, zero neighbors, French-country stone architecture that stops you the moment you pull up the long drive. Thirty minutes to downtown Louisville and the Bourbon Trail. Seconds to exhaling completely.
Ten private acres. Six bedrooms. Heated pool, hot tub, golf simulator, pool table, ping-pong, pergola with outdoor TV — and a horse barn with paddock if your group wants to go full Kentucky. This is what a Sixgen Rentals estate looks like.
The stone French-country manor was recently renovated top to bottom. Two-story great room with wrought-iron balcony railing, dark stone fireplace, and soaring windows. A formal sitting room plus a casual keeping room off the kitchen with vaulted beamed ceiling and leather chairs.
Kitchen: massive marble-top island, bar stools for four, professional range, herringbone tile backsplash, butler's pantry/bar nook with beverage fridge. Formal dining room seats everyone: navy walls, crystal chandelier, long dark wood table.
BEDROOMS (sleeps 12):
Primary Suite (1st floor) — Four-poster canopy king, ensuite with soaking tub + marble shower + double vanity King Suite 2 (2nd floor) — White wainscoting, Palladian window, private ensuite King Suite 3 (2nd floor) — Plaid accent wall, private ensuite, king bed Queen Bedroom 1 (2nd floor) — Sage green wainscoting, shared full bath Queen Bedroom (2nd floor) — Chevron-vaulted ceiling, shared bath Basement Bonus Room — King bed, exposed stone wall, wet bar access
BATHROOMS: 4 full + 1 half. Every bath stocked with towels and essentials.
GAME ROOM: Golf simulator, putting green, pool table, ping-pong. Rainy day? No problem.

BOURBON TRAIL GROUPS: Jeptha Creed at 11am, Bulleit by 2pm, then back to unwind in the hot tub or by the pool. No Louisville rental puts you closer to the trail with 10 private acres to come home to.
CORPORATE RETREATS: High-speed WiFi, dedicated workspace, a dining room that seats twelve, and a golf simulator that closes more deals than any conference room.
