Enjoy time away from it all! Gather your family and friends at this secluded lakefront home. Beautiful views of the lake from the patio, the covered porch and the fire pit. Plenty of seating on both levels for everyone to sit outside. Propane fire pit table located on the upper level for your evening enjoyment. The wood fire pit is situated close to the lake. S'mores, anyone?!
You enter the home on the lower level where you have a recreation room with a 70" TV, a second refrigerator, games & cards, a dining area and pool table. There is also a bedroom and a bathroom with shower on this floor. Upstairs you will find the kitchen and living room as well as three other bedrooms and another full bath (with tub/shower). The washer/dryer is also tucked away in a closet in the upstairs bathroom. Enjoy the gas fireplace in the upstairs living room on chilly nights. A baby gate has been added at the top of the stairs to keep the little ones safe!
The 4 sleeping areas provide you with flexibility to fit everyone who comes to visit. The large upstairs bedroom (bunk room) faces the lake, walks out to the deck and has a 55” TV.
The eat-in kitchen has everything you need to feel at home including a Keurig coffee maker, a drip coffee pot, electric griddle, dishwasher, plenty of pots/pans and a full-sized refrigerator. Grill up your favorites on the propane grill available for your use. Our welcome book has information on many local restaurants should you not want to prepare your meals every day.
Just a short walk to fun on the lake! Nolin Lake is known for great fishing. We have two single person kayaks and one stand-up paddle board available to use during your stay. Assorted life jackets are also provided.
Fall note: the Corps of Engineers begins the seasonal reduction in water level on 10/15. By 12/1, the lake will reach winter pool. Likely you cannot access the water at our dock after the end of October. The lake typically resumes full level again by mid-April.
With Mammoth Cave National Park nearby, be sure to reserve a cave tour! All the hiking trails in the park are also dog-friendly, providing you with lots of options to explore one of our nation's treasures. There are so many nearby attractions from Adventures of Mammoth Cave (zip lines, canoe/kayak rental, horseback riding and aerial challenge course), Blue Holler Off-road Park, Kentucky Down Under (Australian animal park with a cave - terrific for the younger crowd), many KY distilleries, the Corvette Museum, Lost River Cave, golf & disc golf courses, and more! Let us know if you have any questions about things to do or places to see!
We are pet friendly and welcome visitors that travel with their furry family members at no extra charge. Two dog crates are available for your use (sizes medium and extra large). It's OK if you have more than two dogs. Just bring what you need.
Don't miss this great opportunity to tuck your family away for a week (or weekend) of fun and relaxation! We look forward to your visit!
During the summer, we typically book Saturday arrivals to Friday departures. Our calendar will reflect days available for arrival/departure.

We absolutely loved our stay! It felt like a home away from home. The views of the lake were fantastic, the hosts accommodating, would definitely recommend!! They even made it an easy process for our furry family member to join us on our trip.

Thanks for staying with us & sharing your pictures! So glad you enjoyed your trip!
We just stayed for a guys weekend and it was truly perfect spot for a group of old friends to gather. The hosts go above and beyond with lots of firewood stacked and dry, and everything you could need! The lake views are beautiful on the back deck. We will definitely be back!

Thanks for staying with us! We appreciate your kind review!!
House was well stocked and very roomy. I was surprised that it actually took 45 minutes to get to Mammoth Cave Visitor's Center - the description says 20 minutes. One day we travelled to Cave City (also 45 minutes) and toured the Onyx Cave, which we really enjoyed. The tour took about 30 minutes and we descended 80 feet into the cave, but steps were spread out so we didn't have to walk up or down many at one time. Good experience!

Thanks for staying with us! I’m glad you enjoyed some of what the area has to offer.
I’m sorry your drive to the Visitors Center took longer than expected. The section of the listing called “Explore the Area” is generated by VRBO and we are not able to influence what is shared there. Mammoth Cave NP covers about 80 square miles and it looks like they used the center of the park to compute the distance, not the Visitor’s Center.
Everything about this cabin was perfect. The cabin, the location, the dock and pet friendly! The owners were so nice and respond quickly. We will definitely book here again!!

Thank you for your review! Good to hear that everyone enjoyed their stay - even your beautiful pup!
Amenities were great and plentiful. The house decor was perfect for the holiday season! The attention to detail throughout the home was amazing, the hosts thought of everything you might possibly need. We loved the pool table and fire pit. Didn't go out to the lake because it's winter but maybe in future we can come back and enjoy the lake. Doggos loved it here and had many cozy naps. Our group loved every second of it!

Thank you for recommending our lake house to your friends! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay!
Beautiful property and home. Very welcoming when entering with little touches to make us feel at home. Best yet - my dog loved the area and there was a long leash outside so she could just hang out. The deck was wonderful.

About the host
Hosted by Judy Mahan
We are a Cincinnati family and have always enjoyed taking lake vacations and traveling to National Parks. In 2020, we had the opportunity to purchase this great home right on the lake and so close to Mammoth Cave National Park. When we travel, we prefer to stay in VRBOs when they are available. As fellow travelers, we know what we look for and appreciate when we travel, so we have tried to provide those things for our guests when they travel. We are happy to share information about the area with our guests and are committed to doing what we can to make sure you have a great stay!
Why they chose this property
We love everything about this home and property! Easy walk to the lake. A dock in place. Room for our dogs to run. The home has beautiful porches on the upper and lower levels to watch the lake and enjoy the setting among the trees. I enjoy having my morning tea on the covered porch with a chorus of birds in the nearby trees. You feel like you are "away from it all". With room for all our family and friends to gather, we are looking forward to making many memories on this lake!
What makes this property unique
We are happy to host families and their pets at no extra charge! We don't leave our dogs at home, why should you? Crates are available at the house, if you need them for your pets. One less thing to pack in your car. Water bowls are available, too. Don't stress about leaving your pet at a kennel, bring them with you!
