Above and beyond

Brett was amazing throughout our stay. There was a weather related issues during our stay and he reached out to ensure our safety. The house was perfect and then some. It was perfectly situated between everything we wanted to do, and was beautifully decorated and comfortable. It was peaceful to sit outside and enjoy our morning coffee. Host also went above and beyound to think of family activities offering several inside and outside games.The house was also very quiet and restful with super comfy beds. We highly recommend this house. If we come back to the area, this will be where we stay. This was the best home away from home for us.

Private, Quiet & Comfortable

Our stay was perfect. The host had thought of everything from leaving snacks (which was well received after a 7 hour drive) to a personalized welcome note. It was well decorated and super comfortable. We visit Lucas ever year for an event at Barren River State Park (which is right down the road) So we will definitely be back!! Highly recommend!
