We had a wonderful time! Property was as described. Communication with host was wonderful. They insured we had everything we needed and answered all of my questions ahead of time. My kids loved the s’mores supplies that awaited us! Fishing off the dock and sitting in the hot tub were top activities enjoyed by all. Location was great- visited Fort Knox, Mammoth Caves and the Ark Encounter.

We loved this lake house, we all felt immediately comfortable when we got there and thoroughly enjoyed the back porch and fishing off the private dock. The coffee maker in the kitchen was very good, and our kids were super happy with the beds in the open area at the top of the stairs. Overall a very relaxing and comfortable vacation - one note, be aware and check yourselves for ticks, we had a few on us and our dog but no ill effects. Just make sure to check every day. The towns nearby were great and the area is beautiful!

Second year in a row we stayed during our guys trip to Kentucky! Great central location for hitting many distilleries and still have a comfortable place to relax in the evenings. Love the covered deck facing the water, fire pit, grilling steaks, etc.

Cute cottage tucked away on a quiet lake. Multiple distilleries and horse farms within easy driving distance. House was clean and had all we needed, but bring firewood and charcoal for the grill. Host was responsive to any questions or concerns. Tip for those with kids or guests who prefer privacy, two of the beds are in the open area at the top of the stairs between bedrooms. We had a comfy stay and would recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Todd & Sherry

Host profile image
We just got married (May 2022). We are disciples of Christ and enjoy being active with making new disciples. My daughter is a Senior at the University of Kentucky. My favorite thing about the Goose Branch Lake House is sitting on the back porch in the early morning with coffee just watching nature and the people on the water. I find the greatest pleasure in living simply while I'm there. Slow down and relax.

Why they chose this property

LAKE LIFE!! Centrally located on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. Make this your bourbon trail HQ to see more distilleries during your stay. Located approximately 45 minutes from Lexington, but only 30 minutes to the Keeneland Racehorse Track and an hour from Louisville.

What makes this property unique

Walk from the back porch down to the dock in your back yard with your fishing pole to fish. Enjoy watching kayaks and boats meander by on the water.
