Allen and Jeff are the proud owners of the Louisville Bourbon Inn. Their journey to innkeeping is a captivating tale of transformation driven by their deep-rooted passion for hospitality and entertaining. Allen and Jeff share a love for bringing people together through the art of hospitality. Back in Columbus, Ohio, their home was always buzzing with friends and family. Whether it was crafting delectable butter boards, hosting make-your-own pizza nights, or sizzling steaks and veggies on the grill, they knew how to create memorable moments filled with food, fun, and camaraderie. However, their paths took a different turn as Allen pursued a career as an HR business partner in the financial sector, while Jeff took on the demanding role of overseeing special education programs for a sprawling urban school district. The pressures of their professional lives left them yearning for something more, something aligned with their true passions. After an exceptionally stressful week, They took a spontaneous trip to escape the chaos of work. Little did they know that this impromptu journey would unveil their destiny. As they sipped drinks at a bar in Dayton, Ohio, the realization struck them like a lightning bolt, their shared love for entertaining and hospitality was their true calling. Driven by a few more drinks and this newfound clarity, they devised a plan to turn their passion into a profession. A quick Google search led them to the Louisville Bourbon Inn. Six short months later, they took the leap, becoming the proud proprietors of this exquisite property. Their story is a testament to the power of following one’s heart, even when the path is uncertain. Now, as the stewards of the Louisville Bourbon Inn, they are committed to sharing their unwavering love for hospitality with everyone who crosses their threshold. Every guest who stays at their inn will experience not just a place to rest, but a warm and welcoming haven where the spirit of hospitality is alive and well.
