About this property
Barren River Lake House
Spacious home that has been newly renovated all to yourself! Home is fully equipped with WIFI and has a stunning outdoor living space overlooking Barren River Lake with Brownsford Boat Ramp only one-tenth of a mile away. The lake is over 10,000 acres and is ideal for fishing and water sports. It also has multiple marinas that offer boat rentals of all sorts.
This home is a quiet and restful retreat from all the hustle and bustle!
Please Note:
For the remainder of 2021, there could be staff from Barefoot Republic Camp (the camping ministry that owns Lakeview Lodge that is on an adjacent property) staying in the apartment next door. These staff do not have access to Lakeview Lodge, will respect the privacy of all guests and primarily use the apartment at night. Please contact your host with any questions or concerns. And, please let your host know if you would like to tour Barefoot Republic or desire more information (www.barefootrepublic.org). Beginning in 2022, Barefoot Republic will no longer require the use of the apartment during guest rentals of Lakeview Lodge.
There are several nearby opportunities for adventures! Public golf courses, Barren River State Park (beach area for kids, tennis courts, 18 hole golf course, horseback and miles of trails), Kenny's Cheese Farm, Farmer's Market on Thursday in nearly Scottsville (home of the first Dollar General), The Lavender Farm, lots of small antique and yard art places and a thriving Mennonite community are within 10 miles.
If you would like to venture out a little further, Bowling Green is 36 miles away and has all major restaurants, movies and all sorts of attractions including: Jackson's Orchard (largest orchard in south central KY), The Corvette Museum, SKYPAC - performing arts, Spillway Bar and Grill, Beech Bend Park (water park, roller coasters, race track, etc.), Drake's Creek - canoe drop, Lost River Cave with Zipline Tours, boat tours and butterfly habitat. If you would like to venture out any further you can visit: Mammoth Cave (45 mi), Horse Cave and Dinosaur City (39 mi), Maker's Mark Distillery and Gethsemani Monastery (approximately 2 hours away - Great Day Trip). Of course, we are only 1:15 from all of the fun and excitement of Nashville, TN (70 miles).
Plan your adventure and then come home to rest, make use of the outdoor kitchen and have your dinner outside watching the lake and our Fountain Run Eagle!
