About this property

Welcome to our house at Dragonfly Pond! Just minutes from Dale Hollow Lake.

Our home is approximately three miles from Dale Hollow Lake, with four marinas within 10 miles (Hendricks Creek, Sulphur Creek, Safe Harbor Holly Creek, and Dale Hollow State Park). We have plenty of parking space for you to bring your boat and jet skis, or you can rent them at one of the nearby marinas.

The house sits on 15 acres down a dead end road, and we have a small pond out back. If you like to hike, there are several wooded acres beyond the pond for you to explore.

We purchased the house in August 2019, and we spent months working on upgrades. The house has new appliances, beds, paint, and new flooring throughout. The 2020 season got off to a rough start with covid, but still amazingly exceeded our expectations.

The house's living spaces are divided by a two car garage. Both "suites" are included in the rental price as we do not book them separately at this time. Because access to the garage is currently restricted, you must go outside to walk between suites.

"Suite 1" sleeps 10
-kitchen, dining, and living rooms on the 1st floor
-Roku TV in living room
-full bath on 1st floor
-queen master bedroom on 2nd floor
-queen bedroom on 2nd floor
-twin over twin bunks on 2nd floor
-full bath on 2nd floor
-two queen sleeper sofas in the living room on 1st floor

"Suite 2" sleeps 4
-kitchen
-full bath
-2 queen bedrooms on 1st floor
-Roku TV in bedroom / kitchen

There is a deck with a gas grill and patio furniture that wraps around from the dining room to the rear deck doors in the living room. There are also balconies off the front and back of the house, accessed from the upstairs bedrooms. Both balconies have outdoor seating.

We have an outbuilding with a porch and patio furniture for guest use as well.

Please don't hesitate to ask for more information!

About the host

Hosted by Amy Rice

Host profile image
Scott and Amy Rice have been vacationing on the lakes of Kentucky for over 14 years. They started out pulling a camper and renting boats at campgrounds each summer. When their children literally outgrew their camper bunks, they sold the camper and started renting vacation houses near the lake. In 2019 they were able to make a long-time dream of owning a home near Dale Hollow Lake come true.

Why they chose this property

Amy grew up visiting her grandparents at the lake every summer. Each day was spent fishing, swimming, gardening, exploring the lakeshore, and scratching mosquito bites! She introduced Scott to her love of the lake while they were dating, and they have shared that love with their children. Standing beside the pond the very first time, watching the dragonflies dart and the butterflies dance, it was like being back on the water with her grandpa again. It felt like home!
