Great Place to Escape to!!!

This lake house was clean, easy to find, and the location was great! Proximity to Bowling Green and Mammoth Caves NP made daytime adventures easy and accessible. Even though it was winter, the lakefront location was relaxing and quiet. Definitely worth the trip.

Loved the cabin. Never wanted for anything. The owner was quick to respond to questions. Did miss seeing the lake but it was drained for the winter. Still very pretty area. Would definitely stay again.

Surprise Proposal

This property was one of only 2 available for our last-minute dates for a family trip to visit our "to be engaged" daughter. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property to include engagement photos taken down by the lake. We were able to unplug and spend quality time fishing, kayaking and playing games together and discuss the upcoming wedding. The property was very clean and well stocked. The communication with the owner was excellent. We will stay again for our next visit.

Only 2 bedrooms!!!

The listing for this property states this house has 3 bedrooms. In the “rooms and beds” part of the listing the host lists 4 bedrooms and their beds. This property has 2 bedrooms. When we inquired with the host he replied that the basement room with the pool table was being counted as a bedroom. We travel with another family. They have 2 teen girls and we have 2 younger boys. They are not sharing a bedroom. Our boys ended up sleeping on the floor of the walk in closet. There is a pull out bed in the living room but when pulled out there is not room to walk around in the room. The posting states accommodates 9. The kitchen table seats 4. The living room seats 4. There is only 1 towel hook in each bathroom, etc., etc. This is a super tight squeeze for 8-9 people. The posting states this is a “lake house”. The lake is DRY this time of year which was not mentioned in the posting. After asking around town, we learned the water is released at the end of May and damned again every fall. All of that being said, the house has been updated nicely and would be a nice stay for a small family or group. Also, of note, the house is really in the middle of nowhere so if you are looking for a quiet secluded stay, this might be a nice choice. The house was definitely not what we thought we were paying for but nonetheless we had a nice time.

Nice stay with a few drawbacks

The Lake house was beautiful. The owner has put money and care into updating the house and making it very comfortable. We had an enjoyable stay and Barren River Lake is beautiful. The house was listed as 3 bedrooms but there are only 2. The living room pullout couch must be thought of as a third bedroom. There are three double beds in the basement bedroom. There was still water seeping up from the basement floor from a broken pipe last winter. It wasn’t much but I wasn’t made aware of it until the day we arrived. There are downed trees, limbs and branches at the shoreline which made it impossible for our grandkids to swim and limited fishing possibilities. Our grandkids did use the paddle boat and enjoyed it. The area is quiet and relaxing. Also the owner was quick to reply with any questions I had.

Quiet cabin

Cute cabin on Lake. Visited with family of varying ages and 2 little dogs. Ended up working well for fishing directly from property. Be prepared for steep incline down to water and steps in house. Cabin was well equiped and updated. Location was a little further away from attractions than I expected. 29 miles takes about one hour due to curvy and hilly roads. Made it more dufficult to plan the day especially with little dogs. But if you like being away from city this is definitely the place for you. Overall, would recommend.

Pleasant, with some suggestions

Property was clean, owner had good communication. We liked the privacy, fireplace and hot tub. We were not anticipating the sheer amount of water seeping up from the floor downstairs. I would also suggest curtains and additional seating in the living room upstairs. There wasn’t quite enough space for a family of four to be comfortable and stretch out.

Lovely property for a nice getaway stay. Spacious. Would say it sleep less than 9 comfortably. Maybe 5-6 guests. Would recommend adding extra bed or bunk beds down stairs.

Peaceful time on the lake

Phillip is a great host. It is obvious that he put a lot of work and love into the home. It was clean and comfortable and has a great deck for morning coffee and evening cocktails. We brought our kayaks and loved taking them out to explore the lake. Very quiet and serene. It was a good home base for visits to the Corvette Museum, Mammoth Cave and some distilleries and tasting rooms. All things we did and enjoyed. We found lots to do and had a nice place to call “home” in the evenings.

Nice place

Clean and cozy. The 3 bedroom listing is kind of misleading. There are only 2 bedrooms with doors. The other beds are futons in living room and pool room. Lake was nice and paddle boat was awesome to use. The owner was very responsive. Concerning storm hit and he responded at 9:45. So grateful for that. Only thing I would say for someone looking..for the adults there is only one bedroom for privacy. The other bedroom will be shared if more than one couple goes. To some it matters. To us it didn't. Great time and great memories were made!

Beautiful peaceful spot on the lake!

This is a beautiful property right on the lake! The house has a very comfortable and homey feel! The wrap around deck is great and gave my kids plenty room to run around! My wife and I also enjoyed sitting out listening to the serene sounds of nature and the lake at night. It's a good spot for fishing as well! The house is also not far from attractions in the area like the caves, Bowling Green, or even Nashville! We could really tell a lot of thought and love went into this house! Philip was a great host, too! He was very friendly and attentive! He really does care about his guest's experience! I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

About the host

Host profile image
Myself, wife, and 3 children always dreamed of waterfront lakehouse. We bought this home and remodeled it completely ourselves. Very proud of it and decided to share it with others. There is a photo album on coffee table from changes the property has overgone through the years and the extensive remodel performed in 2020.
