Great place to get away and enjoy nature. They had everything ready for us that we could possibly imagine. Even had lots of firewood for our nightly campfires. Loved the comfy coziness of the house. I particularly enjoyed the all of the cedar doors and woodwork. The deck was amazing and spacious along with the rooms and living area. We were just minutes away from many places to kayak and fish! It was amazing!

Great cabin!!!

We enjoyed our stay and were very impressed with how clean and cozy everything was. The owners were so easy to get in touch with! One of our favorite things was how quiet the neighborhood was and how many different types of wildlife we got to see while there. Beautiful!!!

KY Vacation

This is a beautiful property. My family enjoyed making s'mores at the fire pit and hanging out on the deck. Inside the open floor plan was wonderful and the kitchen was fully set to cook. The property was convenient to the marina, lake, and Cadiz. If our travels bring us back to Lake Barkley we hope to stay here again.

Quiet

The property is located with the lake a short wy walk through the woods. The neighbors were friendly and the owner was quick to respond with questions. The deck is a great place to hang out and enjoy a game of darts, eat, and take in the quiet. Lake barkley Beach access is 15 minutes away. Great place

Cozy Stay

Great place to stay. Lots of little details. The owner really thought of everything. There is a full binder and folder with plenty of information and flyers for the surrounding area. Our kids were excited to see deer within yards of the cabin. Unfortunately, the storms hit during our second day and we lost power, but the owners opened their personal barn to let me park my truck inside so it wouldn't get damaged. They also checked on us the next day. I highly recommend this location if you are visiting the area. We are happy to stay there again the next time we visit the area.

Very clean and cozy

Nice little getaway. Close to the lake but not right on it. Love the porch and outdoor seating. The cabin was equipped with nice pans, utensils and dishes. We brought must of our own paper products but the owner also had extra toilet paper, paper towels, and other bonuses like cleaning products, few bottles of water, tea and coffee. Made the stay very nice. Loved the coffee bar area as well. Lots of seating options in living space. Everything was clean. The loft area with the the twin beds were very nice. Would stay here again!

So relaxing

The place looks just as listed. Easy access. Plenty of parking (and we had a boat). The decor was very relaxing and comfortable. Love that it is pet friendly. Plenty of room inside and out. We were very glad that there were ceiling fans on the covered deck. Also ceiling fans in the bedrooms and living room. We did not have any children with us but we saw several accommodations for those with kids, from books and games to a pack-and-play crib. Definitely a very nice stay for our family.

Beautiful cabin close to Lake

The house is amazing! We couldn’t have picked a better place. It had had everything we needed and more. Pictures didn’t do it justice. Comfortable, spacious and very clean. After spending the day at the lake, we grilled out burgers and spent the evening out on the porch with an amazing view. The beds were really comfortable and the bathroom was well stocked with towels for everyone to take showers. ( 4 adults and kids) The kitchen had everything needed for any occasion. Very impressed with the games and books provided for the kids. Celia provided a folder with information of good places to go or do in the area, as we are hopeful to come back. We really enjoyed our stay!

Very clean and quiet (stayed with young kids)

The house was great. Very clean. The neighborhood is clean, quiet and comfortable. Lots of wildlife. Not far from Lake Barkley, which was wonderful. We were able to attend a community event there. The home had every amenity we could possibly need to make us feel at home. The coffee and tea bar is a cute touch that we just loved. It was a rather warm weekend so the air conditioning was much appreciated and worked great. We really enjoyed the patio for almost everything from naps, to dinner and playing games with our family. The linens smelled amazing. The only negatives we experienced were the shower needs some attention because it would only half turn on when put in shower mode, part of the pressure was still coming from the faucet spout. The firepit furniture wasn’t the most comfortable to myself but we were happy to have and use the pit anyway. Our kids didn’t seem to mind one but. They enjoyed exploring the woods and playing with the available games in the home. They were able to watch TV at night when winding down. The apps did need updates that we weren’t able to do so they couldn’t watch all their apps but Tubi and YouTube worked fine for us.

About the host

Hosted by Celia E Blauser

Host profile image
My husband, Rusty and I have lived in Kentucky for almost 40 years. After he served in the Army at Ft. Campbell, we raised our 3 children here. We now have 10 grandchildren! We moved to Cadiz 7 years ago and live on Lake Barkley. When we acquired the property, (we needed the large pole barn for storage), the little house was a very run down, old fish camp. We knew we had to turn it into a fun little rental with a "lake cabin" feel, so that more people could enjoy the beauty of the Land Between the Lakes just as we do. We enjoy hiking the trails, kayaking and boating and fishing here. The many species of birds and animals that live around the lake provide even more natural beauty to view.
We learned a lot during the renovation because we did most of the finishing work ourselves. Rusty made all the barn doors and I did the tile work in the bathroom. You could say it was a labor of love to add our own personal touches. We are excited to share it with you and we really hope you will enjoy your stay.
