About this property

"Sweet Waves" of Barren River Lake - Lake Access!

Lake Side!! Boater's paradise! Bring your Boat, Canoe, Kayak. Silent walk to the water, “NO STEPS”. From the rear porch you can see the lake, and from time to time, deer and turkeys. This lake home has it all: Full kitchen, living room area, upstairs loft, Sunroom. Swing for 2 in the edge of the woods facing the lake. Stroll down to the water's edge and wet a line or take a dip. (Bring Extra Towels - You'll Want to Get Wet!) Barren River Lake is known for its Bass, Crappie, Hybrid Bass and Large Catfish fishing. As night begins to fall, find a place on the bank and watch as moonbeams beckon the water to dance. Or just curl-up in a chair and read that favorite book.

Excellent location and amenities

Loved the wooded location with lake access, proximity and ease of drive to Mammoth Cave. The accommodations were great, and we especially appreciated the complementary hot chocolate and firewood. We were incredibly excited that access to a canoe and paddleboards were included and made great use of these! Will definitely be coming back!

A cozie family stay

My family of 5 stayed here as we navigated a variety of different attractions in the area that were literally minutes away. Loved the setup, experienced woodland creatures, fishing, camp fire smores and grilling in this secluded woodland comfort. Would do it again.

Lake Vacay

We pleasure boated, fished and relaxed. The kids had a blast and the adults did too. Very nice cabin with great accommodations. Having a dock slip is a game changer when boating for an extended period. Would definitely recommend for a family vacay. We plan on retuning in the future!

Quaint house

It is a secluded house in the woods. Very clean and had everything we needed. Doesn't really have a view of the lake. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't kind to the area and before we got there the lake got so much water that all the docks were under water and the beaches were closed. So we stayed in more than anticipated. The house is not a very bright place with lots of natural light. But would be perfect for evening retreat after a day on the lake.

Beautiful Spring Break Stay

We stayed for four nights and it was a very relaxing stay. The lake was very low, and we looked up the lake to find that it is lower during certain times, so that is something to consider activity wise, depending on when you stay. We had fires and roasted smores nightly, enjoyed the deck and grill usage, fished (unsuccessfully, lol) and enjoyed being able to cook at the house since there are little options for eating out without driving 25 minutes. I was glad there were cleaning supplies there-I vacuumed daily thanks to my heavy shedding dogs. I was able to have instacart deliver a few things from Food Lion which was nice. The pamphlets, maps, and guides in the guest book were so helpful, and we all left wishing we could stay-I can't recommend it enough!

Perfect Barren Lake Getaway

Great lakehouse, very private, near the end of a dead end street. We stayed for a week and just wish it could have been longer. Caught (and released) dozens of fish off the pier and had many fun hours out floating on the lake. The house is fully furnished: a few welcome surprises that I haven't seen mentioned in other reviews are fishing gear, inflatable lounges, small dog bed, dog food and water bowls, blender, and lawnchairs. We had my little sedan loaded to capacity and would have packed a lot lighter knowing that all these were available. Greg and Lora are great hosts, very responsive and we could tell they take pride in maintaining a great family lakehouse and work hard to save their guests a 20 minute drive to town for incidentals. The internet really lives up to the high speed claims, can easily watch movies on prime video or youtube on a stormy day. Looking forward to the next time we can get away!

Peaceful getaway

Sweet Waves is located in a quiet remote area, with direct lake access. The home is well maintained, stocked with all the essentials, and has several rooms for family members to get private space. Full kitchen, 2 full bathrooms, plenty of towels, kitchen utensils, and board games. A short walk to the dock and we were able to paddle board and swim. There is a canoe available as well. Don’t hesitate to book this place for your family, you will love it. We stayed 5 days and visited local attractions like Mammoth Cave, Kentucky Down Under animal park, and the National Corvette Museum in Bolingreen. Greg was very responsive and helpful during our stay. Thanks for sharing your home!

Sweet PEACEFUL Waves

The woods, the lake, the wild life, the bonfires, the house and it’s amenities and it’s cleanliness - all made for a very peaceful weekend where we had so much fun and made beautiful memories. We brought far too many things that weren’t needed because this house has it all - well stocked kitchen, so many outdoor chairs, lots of pillows, games, big family table… I could go on. 😀 Exceptional lake house!
