THE COTTAGE

The architect's plan for this refurbished, lovely stone cottage, positioned with truly the greatest view of the main Lake, was to create the ultimate retreat for couples or friends in search of unmatched location and prime fishing. The perfect base from which to explore Kentucky Lake has successfully been constructed. The 680 square-foot lake front area of its deck offers spectacular sunrises without another structure in sight - only a calm unspoiled setting - the lake and nature. This majestic environment seems complete as visitors experience the remarkable image of a Bald Eagle reflected on the water as it soars in to perch on the branch of a surrounding tree. The wrap around deck totals 1100 square feet and is the ideal place to discover the beauty and serenity of Kentucky Lake by the light of day or under a starry sky at any season of the year. There is no more beautiful setting to begin or end your visit to the Lake. Conveniently located only 13 miles from Murray State University. We do include Free WiFi.

While the cottage's design maintains a rustic mood special attention has been paid to provide distinctive quality furnishings and unique amenities that ensure the guests' comfort and a restful visit. The top floor of the cottage has a cathedral ceiling. The living space and dining area feature a grand stone fireplace and floor to ceiling windows that share the main deck's great views. Two well appointed queen bedded rooms and a full bath are also upstairs. Downstairs with a separate entrance is a quaint twin bedded room with a full bath, as well as a laundry facility.

Enhancing and maintaining quality is a happy necessity that keeps our customers returning. Ensuring that every season be one of great memory making feature a custom boat dock adjacent to the cottage with an on property boat rental. A very thoughtful process of considering what features make for the best waterfront experience has brought about many conveniences with the addition of the deluxe dock.

First, There is the Access - Here there is no steep slope or long trek to your boat. Being only one hundred feet away, step out the door and be on the dock in a minute or less. Please note: Lake levels are Gov't controlled and may be lower during non peak season. Minimum 357ft. lake level required for boat rental.

Coverage and Quality are Redefined – Equipped with an attractive and highly functional hip roof, superior protection from the elements is ensured. Not only is the aluminum decking non-slip, but it is splinter free.

Then, there is the Relaxation & Recreation – If after a day out you return full of the sense that exploring and playing on the lake can be both fun and hard work, here is the place to reflect on the day you have had and contemplate tomorrow’s plans. Having a 12x28 swim platform complete with a retractable ladder makes this the spot to share a fun and rejuvenating break lounging, sunbathing or swimming.

We cannot forget the Exceptional Fishing Possibilities - Many of the cottage’s guests return to revisit the location right on our lakefront where they have had very rewarding days fishing for blue gill, bass, crappie, and catfish. We are confident that their future visits will leave them happily convinced and surprised that their past successes here have been surpassed.

The Property Boat Rental: Several well-equipped boats are available to guests at special rates. It is one more convenience, and can add hours to vacation time on Kentucky Lake. There is no drive to and from a marina to collect and return a boat. For a rental over multiple days how great it is to have the driving completely eliminated? Imagine instead the pleasure of a sunrise breakfast ending seamlessly with a stroll across the lawn to board the boat that awaits you at your private dock. Effortlessly, straight from the comfort of your cottage a day out on the lake begins...

While visitors may be satisfied to not leave the property during their stay, there are many great experiences to be found locally:

FISHING: The fish are surely not hard to find, but for visitors with the goal of maximizing their fishing experience the owners have established relationships with the areas most knowledgeable guides. We are delighted to introduce guests to any one of these specialists who have each made it his life's passion to master and uncover this lake’s greatest features - impressive fishing opportunities and a wide array of wildlife. They are at the disposal of the expert or the novice and promise anyone wishing to learn and have the mysteries of Kentucky Lake revealed a day that will long be remembered.

GOLF: In addition to the satisfaction a day on the water offers, just a 15 minute drive away is Miller Memorial Golf Course - considered to be one of the finest golf courses in west Kentucky's lakes region, it presents many challenges for even the most seasoned golfer.

LAND BETWEEN THE LAKES: Guests have a direct view of the Land Between the Lakes from the cottage itself. It's just a 15 minute drive away. It is a national recreation area with 170,000 acres of wildlife, history, and outdoor activity opportunities, surrounded by 300 miles of undeveloped shoreline. LBL’s Elk & Bison Prairie is a 700-acre restoration of Kentucky’s native barrens. The Homeplace is an 1850’s working farm where west Kentucky’s history comes alive - Interpreters in period clothing demonstrate on a daily basis the chores and activities of another time. There are special events and festivals for every season. On another day one might return to explore the 200 miles of trails, the Nature Station, or the Golden Pond Planetarium & Observatory.

This place was amazing! The property was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. One of the best parts was being able to fish right on the property—and the fish were really biting! That made the trip even more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with great fishing opportunities.

Our gracious host Pam met us at the property and before we even walked inside the home I had a feeling I’m gonna wanna come back here again. The house is very clean, very organized and very well stocked. Our stay was absolutely perfect very peaceful, very relaxing and just an incredible view from the large deck. The boat dock was used for fishing and it did not disappoint. We caught so many fish and so many different species… What a trip can’t wait to go back. Do not hesitate to book this property. It is absolutely fabulous. But please take good care of it cause I’m coming back.

Great house and location!

We came to fish and relax a few days. This house was perfect. Very clean and well stocked. They have a boat to rent as well if you like. We were going to do that one day but my friend had already got too much sun, so may be next time.

House was terrific - clean, well appointed. Paul & Pam were great hosts. The location was really great; quiet & secluded, beautiful private dock where our kids spent hours and hours swimming & fishing, Murray is such a cute little town with everything you could need (15-20 mins), Nashville was a quick 1.5hour drive. We rented one of the boats and brought our own tow rope & intertube. A day well spent on the lake! Cottage had two rooms and a separate room and bath downstairs - you do have to go outside to get downstairs, but great to shower off after swimming and laundry machines too. Great vacation destination for us!

The best vacation we have had!!

From start to finish, we had the best stay! We live in Louisville and decided to travel closer for vacation this year, since we are taking a cruise in October. And I’m SO glad we did! The check in process was excellent, the cabin was cleaned and stocked with everything we need for cooking/cleaning! Paul rented us a boat for our stay and the kids had the best time tubing! (It was my first time too) we cruised up to Burger Barn for dinner; which was delicious and excellent pricing. We had the best views of the sunrise, and every morning we tried to get our their on our paddle boards! We had a surprise visitor on the lake with us; an armadillo!! He swam right next to us, so cool, another first for us! Pam and Paul were gracious, kind, and always there right away for our questions we had! Couldn’t have asked for a better, more fun trip filled with great fun, food, activities, sights, and more! We can’t wait to come back again for all seasons!! :)

Just what the Doctor prescribed

Sunsets, sunrises, wildlife and water views were absolutely stunning. The cottage was outfitted with nearly everything one could need. We were discovering items on our 5th day! And the hosts, Pam and Paul, were responsive to our needs. My only critical review is that the 3rd bedroom and 2nd bathroom are in a below grade level that is only accessible outside. The ceilings are low in this level and there is a distinct odor of dampness. That being said….. I plan to return and rent the same cottage.

Why they chose this property

Having been raised on Kentucky Lake I can’t imagine life anywhere else. I don’t take for granted how fortunate I am. Now sharing all the lake offers with others is extremely rewarding for us. Hearing from first time visitors that Kentucky Lake is so much more than they imagined it would be makes having developed our properties all worth while.
After completing several projects, both commercial and residential, my ;lifelong interest in architecture is combined with that of assuring a great vacation.

What makes this property unique

From the ground up there’s an emphasis that comes naturally on making sure our accommodations be of a quality not found in rental homes in the area, and that the features compliment this exceptional property and location. Whether it’s a unique attribute incorporated in the structural design or a special element that creates an unexpected convenience, making it unforgettable is the priority.
With my wife Pam having had a 20 year career in the luxury hotel & resort industry she lends a professional touch. As a Director for North America & Europe she lead a talented team overseeing Sales, Marketing and PR for many of the finest resorts & hotels in the world. Her knowledge is on a global scale from a wide array of 5-star themes. She visited renowned properties and met with clients on frequent around the world trips working in the U.S., Canada, the Caribbean & Bahamas, Mexico, and numerous countries in Europe, the U.K., Asia, South East Asia, Australia, French Polynesia, and South America. She ensures a consistent commitment to the principles that keep our customers returning. Pam approaches each guest’s visit with the dedication she did as she helped cultivate standards that would exceed the expectations of dignitaries and celebrities alike.
