We loved being right on the water. We fished off the dock and used the provided kayaks. We were close to a marina to put in our boat, close to restaurants and shops as well. We ordered pizza from a shop a mile away and had dinner on the patio overlooking the lake. Everyone slept well and enjoyed the accommodations!

Clean place, a lot of room on the patio, the nick was awesome. We were able to park our pontoon right there and just walk down to the lake. No boat slip needed at the marina, money saved.

Lovely Lake Kentucky retreat!!

Great peaceful place to visit with family. This place had everything we needed and then some. The only downside of this weekend was the dead fish smell from the dead fish that came into the cove by the house which is not something the owners can control but hindered us being on the water. Overall highly recommend this place!!

This stay was perfect for us to meet up with family. I can see that in warmer weather, this would be a fun time. There's a dock and boat slip. Both have swimming ladders. We did make great use of the pool table.
