Family vacation

Getting up and down to the lake was EXHAUSTING. It is across the road and down a long, steep hill. We also found a rat king that almost made me leave. That is a group of mice whose tails get tangled, and they eventually die in a ball. This thing was obviously there awhile. Other than that it was great. We were there for the ark and creation museum. We weren’t at the house much. It had what we needed when we were there but I felt the need to clean everything after seeing signs of rodents.

Country Stay

We choose the Boyer Family cabin because we were taking our grandchildren to see the Ark. Not wanting to stay in a hotel with a pre-teen and a teenager. This was the perfect place. everyone had their own bed and there are 2 bathrooms. Although having use of a washer and dryer, would have been great.

Nice view of the lake

We enjoyed our stay but were surpised that there was such a slope to go from the cottage down to the dock. We are older and getting back up that last bit of hill to the street was an effort. Some stone steps might be a great addition! The indoor fireplace was very nice. The house was comfortable. The steps to the second floor are a bit steep. The kitchen is well equipped.

Peaceful and relaxing

Just what we needed to relax (great view)and we even did a visit to The Ark which was a nice treat. I was a little freaked out with the hills and crazy roads but I'm not a country girl so I was unprepared. The owner was super nice and we had no issues ( except me learning to park on a hill :) We will visit again in the future.

Kentucky wedding

Warm and cozy place for our family to stay for my niece's wedding. The kids really enjoyed the dock and the open space to play, even though it was rather chilly for us Californians. Overall, the lake house provided perfect views and atmosphere for our Kentucky visit!

Lake House

Was a perfect tucked away place. Easy to access the main freeway and not to far away from certain things we were planning on doing/seeing. The Cabin was clean and well kept. Would definitely stay here again, or recommend to anyone looking for a place in that area

A beautiful retreat

Our family of 7 absolutely loved our stay at the lake house! It was tastefully furnished with many special touches including super comfy deck furniture, string lights, and an awesome fire table. The view was breathtaking, and we enjoyed the fire ring one evening beside the lake. We're so happy we found this hidden gem! Our only regret is that we didn't have enough time there since we visited the Creation and Ark museums. We highly recommend this beautiful place!

Relaxing Lake House

Had a wonderful time relaxing at this lake house. We loved using the kayaks, fishing off the dock, and just chilling out on the deck. It was an easy drive for a day trip into Cincinnati to go to the zoo and explore Smale Riverfront Park (about 45 min.) A nice place to chill out and have some quality family time. Agreed that the hill down to the lake is a little steep, it was no issue for our family but good to note for those who may have mobility issues. We loved our time here.
