Super cute and cozy house!

The Jolene house was very cute and nicely decorated, and was very clean. It had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend stay and was a comfortable place to hang out and feel at ease.

Wonderful stay

This place was very clean and had a very comfortable mattress on the bed. I recently had neck/back surgery so I was worried about the bed being uncomfortable but it was very comfortable. The house was very cute- definitely will go back.

Great house close to the lake!

This was our second time staying at Jolene's and we're planning on going back in August. The house has everything you need for your vacation, including some complimentary snacks and water bottles! I would definitely recommend staying here if you're going to the lake or even Cumberland Falls!

Jolene, Jolene!

We absolutely loved staying in Jolene! It is truly an amazing property with easy access to town and beyond. I specifically picked this property based on distances to what we were doing in the state. Everything is about an hour and a 1/2 away from Jolene! Jolene is immaculate! From the cleanliness to the decore - extremely well done! This fun theme is found throughout the home from large details to the smallest detail! Well stocked, thought out additions, and access to a variety of streaming services. I'd stay there again - in fact, I said I would live there! Well done hosts! You nailed a perfect vacation rental!

Clean house in between Corbin and London. There are basic things provided like coffee, tea, and bottled water that I have not had in other rentals I've stayed in so that was a really nice addition!

Laurel River Lake fishing adventure

Great place to stay 😊!! Plenty of parking for a 21’ boat and 2 vehicles.The house was super comfortable and very clean . The massive cold front made fishing extremely tough , but the scenic beauty was amazing.would highly recommend Jolene’s Place to family and friends. 😊✌️❤️

Perfect Anniversary Getaway!

We stayed at Jolene's for our 22nd anniversary and everything was just perfect! The house is such a gem - everything perfectly decorated and comfortable! Loved having all the amenities available! The deck/porch area with the fire pit table was a favorite spot for us to just sit and drink coffee. Nice area close enough to everything! Would love to stay again!!

About the host

Hosted by Joey

Host profile image
This all began because of our love of Laurel Lake. I grew up in central Kentucky while my partner was raised just a few miles down the road. Over the years I was introduced to Laurel lake and just fell in love. It soon became our go to spot for quick get aways and full vacations but we would have to camp or stay with family. Now I love camping and our family but we really wanted a place to call our own. One day some close family friends mentioned moving to a new home and I jumped at the chance to purchase Jolene's Place. The rest is history.
