Our family had a wonderful visit - the house was spotless and had everything we needed, and the property is beautiful. We especially enjoyed fishing on the boat dock, and roasting marshmallows by the fire pit. The host is very responsive and helpful - definitely recommend!

Exterior could use a bit of care and it is really close to a bigger home on the property. It’s is a mobile home. But otherwise was wonderful. Clean and well stocked.

We are so glad you found our home welcoming, clean and well stocked. There is another home on the lot next door and their driveways are adjacent to each other. There is plenty of room in the driveway for 3-4 cars for each home and we have parking across the street, as well. Thank you again for staying with us.

It was as lovely as the pictures. It had multiple, great outdoor spaces and stairs down to a private dock. The hosts were extremely responsive through the VRBO app but never intrusive. It was a perfect stay for a long weekend getaway! We'll be back!

If you are looking to get away and enjoy a great view of nature and quite then this is the place to visit. The location was central enough to provide us trips to Mammoth Cave, Lincolns Birthplace and the Underground lost river. We visited the restaurant Steak and Stone in Leitchfield which was amazing. The home had such warm touches and was so welcoming.

The trailer was elevated and super clean. There were extra blankets for the beds, throw blankets in the living room, Kleenex, qtips and extra sheets. Lots of towels. Very well appointed. Super clean! The river was a lot of fun; clean and warm. They kayaks were great. Close enough to Mammoth Cave. The communication was excellent and quick. Great place, great hosts.

We had a terrific stay. I would definitely stay here again! The house is comfortable and clean. Everything you need if you want to cook. The weather was perfect for an evening campfire. Mammoth Cave is nearby and a trip to the Zoo, Kentucky Down Under was a highlight. You can feed a kangaroo or two or several.

Great location to local attractions!

We had a great stay here while out sightseeing with our kids and dog! Lake is beautiful and our kids loved the yard. Would be awesome to use in the summer when lake is in full swing.
