About Natalie and Chris McNulty

We still live just a few miles away in Louisville with our 3 children. We had hoped to sell one of our 2 homes, but with the turn in the real estate market, we decided to share this magical place with visitors to Louisville.

Natalie and Chris McNulty purchased this estate in 2005
Why Natalie and Chris McNulty chose Louisville

When we lived at this property we always felt like we were on vacation. It is just the most relaxing and magical place we ever lived. We fell in love with it the first time we drove up the long wooded driveway and have enjoyed so many good times with friends and family here. We know you will love it too and build your own memories in this oasis!

What makes this estate unique

Brand new furniture, beds, linens & mattresses, throughout the property. We provide about 15 new beach towels for the pool as well. Private setting perfect for getaways and events like weddings or parties in town that want one place to stay and enjoy the true essence and beauty of Kentucky living.

Fantastic Stay at Greytail Manor

5 of 5
Submitted: May 20, 2013 Stayed: May 2013
My friends and I were looking for a vacation property in Louisville to take a group for the Derby. We found this property and starting talking with the owners. They couldn't have been nicer and more thorough in letting us know about the details of the two houses on the property, the pool, fire pit and outdoor space. The negotiations were professional and we again received a lot of help and perspective on the local area leading up to our stay.

The house is set well off the street and gives you a feeling of being miles away from civilization, even though the shopping center is only 3 mins away. When we arrived, the houses were completely ready for us and we were shown around the property by one of the owners who made us feel right at home. The main house is perfect for a group or family to gather in one of the many living rooms. There are plenty of TV's and the kitchen is built to cook for a quick a few. We loved hanging out on the many porches and decks as well as around the fire pit at night.

It was a great stay, the landlords were available and helpful during our trip. While we were in Louisville for the Derby and the Bourbon Trail, GreyTail Manor was the reason that we enjoyed our trip so much and would go back to this property again.

Incredible house, property and management

5 of 5
Submitted: March 25, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
Our group of 6 just returned from a long weekend stay at Grey Tail Manor and we can't say enough about this property - the photos really don't do it justice. The house and grounds are enormous, the property is very well taken care of and the furnishings are top of the line - even the beds are comfortable! While the house is a little bit outside of downtown (20 minutes), the privacy and country environment were really nice (think lots of deer and wildlife). There are plenty of stores and shopping nearby. We didn't get to take full advantage of the property due to the cold weather, but there are so many things to do here (poker table, golden tee, fire pit, etc.) that we didn't even notice. Chris and Natalie were amazing owners/hosts and made the entire process so easy - from providing wonderful recommendations for local food, to being there to welcome us (with a bottle of bourbon) and to treating us to breakfast one day. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property and if we're ever back in Louisville, will definitely stay here again!

My Personal Heaven

5 of 5
Submitted: January 30, 2013 Stayed: June 2012
This property is my personal heaven. It is extremely private, family friendly, romantic by nature and rich in Historic Culture.It is locally known as,"The Manor" . It features many amenities that my family had the privilege of enjoying. Some of which were, tennis on the court,followed by a wardrobe change in the charming pool-house, then settled in the heated pool for some R & R. AWWW!! Next up was roasting s'mores by the camp fire. On a few occasions we enjoyed a fabulous cookout on the outdoor grill while the children waded their precious feet and splashed in the creek and explored the lush 6 acres the estate offers in all it's glory. We have had the privilege of staying in both the cabin and the main house on more than a few occasions. My family has made many precious memories at the estate and will treasure them always, so many in fact, that although we reside in the beautiful and Sunny California, this spectacular estate offers so much that we are planning our next vacation there this summer. Looking forward to once again being spoiled with, rest,relaxation,privacy, being recharged and enjoying all that the gorgeous estate offers. My beautiful piece of Heaven. Hope this review helps to better understand the solitude,charm,luxuriousness and homey feeling that is found here. Hope you ENJOY it as much as we have!!!!
