About this property

NEW! 3Br Retro-style Cabin on KY Lake waterfront

For September 2026 only, contact me first for a discount! I have just opened this property and want feedback and some great reviews to kick things off!

This charming cabin will have you wanting to stay longer! The 3 bedrooms have plenty of room for your family, friends, or fishing buddies. Each features a queen bed and two of them add a twin for the kids. The living room is spacious with plenty of room to sit and relax. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook and new retro style appliances.
Enjoy your morning cup of coffee in the indoor porch facing the lake while you watch the wildlife. Grill up some dinner and enjoy your favorite drink on the extensive exterior patio.
The property meets the lake along an extensive coastline of Cambridge Bay. The bay is calm and great for kayaks and swimming.

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

Great Weekend Getaway!This place checked every box when we decided to book a last-minute trip. The direct lake access was exactly what we were looking for, and being able to bring our furry family member along was huge! Ed’s place is thoughtfully decorated—we truly appreciated the charm, details, and character of the house. The comfortable beds were also plus!The hosts were very attentive and responsive!We can't wait to come back!

Why they chose this property

We couldn't pass up this fabulous cabin when our dear neighbor called to sell. "Uncle" Ed has loved this place for decades and we can't wait for a whole new set of memories to flood it.

What makes this property unique

This cottage was built with live in the 50s and we tried hard to keep that charm.
