We really enjoyed the accommodations. Had a great time. Great for watching sports and having family together. Lots to do with the pool table and the video games etc. Would like to return and stay again when the lake is full.
We loved our stay at Joy on the Lake. Our daughter was getting her Masters at the University of the Cumberlands on a Monday morning and we chose to make a family weekend trip out of the event. We chose this home for
The view is beautiful. The owner is awesome to work with. The house is great for a large group especially with kids as the basement is a great space for them to play and enjoy. Thanks for a great stay!

Thank you so much! You guys were wonderful guests and you're welcome back anytime!
Great place! Highly recommended.It lives up to other’s reviews. Super clean, well-stocked with plenty of towels and toiletries.Great view of the lake.Located in a quiet neighborhood.Host is quick to respond to any questions.
First the owner Jordan is outstanding! The house is lovely. Very clean. View is beautiful of lake. Close enough to fishing and town for convenience but in quiet neighborhood. We have a few mobility issues and house was perfect for us. Nice getaway from Cincinnati without being too far. Hope to return.
We stayed here three nights and the setting is beautiful. It had all that we needed and was conveniently located close to where our “main house” meals and activities were. Plenty of room to accommodate more than just our 5. Jordan was very easy to communicate with and timely with codes and instructions.
We had a great weekend with friends and our families. The property was easy to access and all of our teens enjoyed the basement bunk beds, large TV’s, karaoke machine and pool table. The adults enjoyed the easy to use kitchen and outdoor deck for relaxing. Perfect for families / groups. Lots of bedrooms and easy to spread out. We went to the Pulaski County Park for kayaking (just 10 min down the road). Rented from Kumberland kayaks.
Communication with host was fantastic! A great weekend!

Kelly was a great guest and communicator. We would love to have them back anytime!
The property was in such a great location and the sunset views were so lovely, a perfect way to wind down the day. Everything in the house was very well appointed, even down to the nice silverware which was such a nice treat. The back deck was amazing and the eight of us enjoyed the space every night, and it might sound silly but the screens on the doors were a perfect touch for our dogs to be able to come in and out without letting the bugs in. The inside of the house was very clean, it was only the deck outside that need to be swept and furniture that needed to be cleaned off before using them, but that certainly didn't detract from our enjoyment and time at the property. Overall it was great, and we would recommend staying here and have talked about coming back again!

Our neighborhood is nestled in this picturesque setting, where friendly neighbors are quick to offer a wave or a helping hand, adding to the area's charm and warmth.
What we enjoy most about this neighborhood is the perfect balance it strikes between tranquility and activity. On any given day, we can enjoy the quiet solitude of a morning by the lake, the soft sounds of nature providing a soothing start to the day. Yet, adventure is never far away. Whether it’s hiking through nearby trails, visiting local markets, or enjoying water sports on the lake, there’s always something to do that connects us with nature and each other.
The community here is vibrant and engaging, with local events and gatherings that bring everyone together, creating a sense of belonging and togetherness. It's this combination of natural beauty, community spirit, and the endless possibilities for adventure and relaxation that made us choose this neighborhood.
