About this property

Condo on the Water with a Dock on Kentucky Lake

Spectacular lakefront Condo with private dock!
This first floor condo is the perfect retreat. The condo has 3 large bedrooms, each with a private bathroom. An open kitchen, dining, relaxing space with a pool table, and a den with wood fireplace.

During your stay, enjoy your huge patio space, the dock and the private boat ramp. Swimming and kayaking is amazing from the dock in this sheltered cove at the mouth of Big Cambridge Bay overlooking the main channel of Kentucky Lake. The condo is situated on the first floor of a two story home. My family reserves the upstairs for our personal use.

Enjoy your morning cup of coffee in the fully equipped kitchen while watching the sunrise over Kentucky Lake. Challenge your friends and family to a game of pool and serve snacks and drinks at the large island with seating for four. After a fun day on the lake, throw your towels in the washer and kick back on the two full size sofas in the den to catch-up on Netflix. Then retire to one of the three large bedrooms, each with a queen bed and private lavatory.

I truly hope you enjoy your time at Kentucky Lake and look forward to doing anything I can to make that more memorable.

We loved being right on the water. We fished off the dock and used the provided kayaks. We were close to a marina to put in our boat, close to restaurants and shops as well. We ordered pizza from a shop a mile away and had dinner on the patio overlooking the lake. Everyone slept well and enjoyed the accommodations!

Clean place, a lot of room on the patio, the nick was awesome. We were able to park our pontoon right there and just walk down to the lake. No boat slip needed at the marina, money saved. The host was great and the place was very comfortable fir the seven of us. Thank you fir a wonderful stay. Sorry fir setting your smoke alarm off upstairs the first day we grilled out!

Lovely Lake Kentucky retreat!!

Great peaceful place to visit with family. This place had everything we needed and then some. The only downside of this weekend was the dead fish smell from the dead fish that came into the cove by the house which is not something the owners can control but hindered us being on the water. Overall highly recommend this place!!

Relaxing getaway

Our 2 night stay at Condo on the Cove was a perfect relaxing getaway for the family. The property was exactly as described, well supplied with everything we needed, and the host Kimberly was very responsive in answering questions. The location in the cove by the lake was private, quiet and very scenic. There was also a country market a short druve up the road with a deli, homemade pizza etc. Had a great time!

About the host

Hosted by Kimberley Lightfoot

Host profile image
I live on the Lake!! Beautiful sunrises every morning, deer grazing thru the yard, and fish biting - well somewhere out there. Other people seem to catch fish, I don't know what is wrong with my pole, or bait, or hmmm. Oh well.
~Kimberley
I respect the privacy of my guests, but am available promptly when needed.

Why they chose this property

This property captured our hearts with the fabulous views, the easy water access, and the amazing amounts of wildlife. We don't go a single visit without seeing deer, cranes, otters, or some other critter roaming about.

What makes this property unique

The cove is perfect for swimming and kayaking. At summer water levels it is approximately 7 feet deep off the dock. It is protected and is not a pathway for boats, which makes it great to let the kids swim in or to paddle the kayaks around without worry.
