We enjoyed our stay in this very private location. The cabin sits atop what seems to be the highest hill in view overlooking Lake Barkley. The cabin is even more spacious than represented in the pictures. There are gathering places around the fireplace in the living room, kitchen table, porch table, Adirondack chairs, and around the firepit. The bunk room is fun and comfy. All of the beds are comfortable. The shower water pressure and temperature are perfect. The cabin is exceptionally clean. In other reviews people mentioned a concern about dogs. There are no roving dogs. However, there are dogs in the neighborhood below the cabin and they do bark on occasion. I considered this part of the county experience. We occasionally visit family in the area and will be happy to stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay, the property was peaceful and clean. We did get a bit lost finding the home, and the road to the house is a bit steep. We did bring food to cook on the grill as listed in the amenities but arrived to find no grill. We were advised that there is a grill 2 minutes down the road. Not ideal for us as one of us has mobility impairments. For an unknown reason the carbon monoxide detectors went off at 10pm on our second night, not a big deal but a little startling. It is a cute home in a peaceful setting.

Underwhelming

The inside of this property was nice and clean but everything else was left to be desired. This was listed as a lakeside property but at best it was near a lake across the road and you could see slivers of it through the trees if you looked hard enough. The hammock was completely unusable and needs replaced. One of the chairs for the fire pit was broken. Wood was stacked in an area not kept dry so we had to get our own wood. The smoke/carbon monoxide detector kept randomly going off for no reason. The house was nice and decent but it was in an area that is extremely rundown and quite frankly looked sketchy. Random dogs kept showing up on the property when we were outside. We will definitely not be returning.

Nice Place!

No street sign and no GPS once in the area, so knowing exactly how to get to the rental is a must before heading out!It was clean and the bedrooms and beds were very nice. The Master Bedroom did not have a closet and the chest was broken so couldn’t be used. We had to work out of our suit cases. The other bedroom had a nice closet however.Full size baths. No bar soap, shampoo, or hair dryer. The only soap was a foaming hand soap that was difficult to operate.The kitchen was roomy and had a long table with chairs to accommodate all of us! It has a gas stove and oven which worked out well!The coffee pot was a single cup type and I had taken coffee to be used in a regular coffee pot. That would have been ok if there had been a pod or two to start us out, but there were none. We got up early the next morning to go buy a regular coffee pot.We were approx 1 mile from the boat ramp which was great! We enjoyed being so close as we had our boat with us!Other than a few oddities, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

Our stay was fabulous. The home was beautiful and had all ammenities needed. Our main issue was finding the property. We used the second driveway but the rv and cabins were grown up really making us question if in the right spot. Some signage or focal point would have been great for confirmation so my anxiety didn't go through the roof feeling like a tresspasser. I initially turned around thinking wrong place. The first drive goes to the property as well but its washed out - dont use.There is a big dropoff behind property -watch little kids closely. There are toys to play with. Be wary of the bugs at night if opening the door nearest driveway. We cleaned and vacuumed for 2 hours because my husband went to the car for dip. He literally just opened the door to go out and 100s came in. It was crazyness. I don’t know if it's like that all the time or just a certain time of year thing. We didn't have the issue on the first night and were in and out all night going to and fro from both doors to the fire pit so I don't know what inticed them to do it the next night. We saw a nice buck at the property in the driveway along with a lot of widlife while we visited the LBL area. The beach at Linton was closed due to bacteria from all the heavy rainfall. We saw a copper head snake near the beach in some fallen limbs while fishing along with a lot of wasps in the rock so always stay alert. Lake Barkley and Bison prairie 🥰All in all memories made & recommend!

We stayed here for Memorial Day weekend and had zero complaints. The house was very clean and stocked well. We didn’t find extra paper towel rolls or toilet paper but otherwise the house had all essentials. It was very secluded and quiet. Beautiful scenery. There isn’t much around the area for shopping so we had to drive a ways to get to a dollar general. Our kids loved the bunk style beds! We would highly recommend this house to others and enjoyed our stay.
