We were looking for a slow family getaway for spring break and that's exactly what we got. Kara and her team thought of every little detail. House was very spacious and the back deck was amazing. If you're looking for a place to stay for Mammoth Cave, this is it!
The perfect home for a long weekend exploring Mammoth Cave. Great for kids all ages with video games, toys, etc. Especially loved the deck and sitting in the rocking chairs to relax after a day of hiking. Will definitely stay again when we come back to the area.
It met our needs of having at least four bedrooms and four bathrooms. We would definitely recommend it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
First, we found a dead mouse (caught in a trap) in the kids game room in the basement, along with a spread of several tens of dead insects (ladybugs mostly). I get that the house is in a rural, wooded area and wildlife will find a way to get in - that's not the problem. It's that all that was there waiting for us, which begs the question as to whether the landlord or host did a timely walk through. Additionally, the basement itself does not have any heat. There's an inoperable wood stove, but I guess it's mainly for show. Consequently, with freezing temperatures outside and no extra blankets, the basement bedroom (4 bunk beds - ideal for kids) was unusable, as was the sitting area. Also, If you have a party of more than five, good luck with the limited hot water. Lastly, we never received any check-in/out instructions via email or through the Vrbo app. I had to call Vrbo's 1-800 number upon arriving to get the host's number to call to get instructions on how to open the door. Otherwise, there was no communication or even acknowledgement of our stay from the Host. There are plenty of Verb properties in the area, so I would recommend looking at others.

Amazing Place to Stay!
My family and friends booked this house looking for a retreat and this house was perfect! Plenty of space for everyone with plenty to do. The deck outside was so peaceful and the walking trail on the property was perfect to start the day. There is fun for all ages with the game room, board games, and video game consoles. My kids really enjoyed the swings under the deck. We used the nearby boat ramp at Dog Creek to put our boat in the water ($5 launch fee). Nolin Lake is beautiful for boating and plenty of coves to hang out in. We will definitely be back and will book again. I highly recommend!
