About this property
Above J’town Marina, LCKY. boat parking. 3 full baths. pool table. pet friendly.
Come stay in this unique hexagon-shaped cottage on Harbor Springs Road. Shady Lake Hideaway sets atop JAMESTOWN Marina, Lake Cumberland, KY. A convenient 2 MILE drive by road to JAMESTOWN MARINA and Lakers Tap & Grill, live music, boat rentals, fuel & store. Located 5 minutes across the water is Lake Cumberland STATE DOCK. 4 MILES to the CENTER of TOWN and 2 MILES from LILY CREEK Boat Ramp. With a one-of-a-kind appeal and ideal location, this cottage was built for enjoying time with friends and family...and PET FRIENDS as well.
Shady Lake Hideaway offers quick and easy access to LAKE CUMBERLAND and local and hiking spots. The 60 FOOT DRIVEWAY on the property allows for BOAT PARKING in addition to the main driveway.
All 3 QUEEN BEDROOMS have their own bathroom. Yep! 3 FULL BATHROOMS. An additional sofa bed is located on the lower level.
This hexagon-shaped cottage is truly unique. Lovingly called "the nut house" (as in hexagonal nuts and bolts) by the road's veteran residents, the cottage has an open concept UPPER-level that includes 2 bedrooms with QUEEN beds. Both bedrooms have an attached bathroom. The upper-level bedroom 1 (sleeps 2) has an attached shower. Bedroom 2 (sleeps 2) has an attached shower/tub combo.
The FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN allows for home cooking with all major appliances, cookware, dishes and utensils. The bar height table seats 6-8 people with the expandable leaf found under the table. A live edge breakfast bar seats an additional 2. The upper-level conversation area has board games and a Smart TV with access to the GRILL DECK and outdoor seating/eating area.
The LOWER-level doors open to a welcoming FIRE PIT with Adirondack chair seating where one can roast s'mores, share stories and play a game of corn toss.
The lower-level POOL TABLE, Smart TV, and JBL PartyBox allow for an evening of kick-back and relax after a hard day of play. You will find the Bedroom 3 (sleeps 2) QUEEN, FULL bathroom with shower, sleeper sofa (sleeps 2), and laundry room on the lower-level.
Nestled amongst the tall trees of Kentucky's scenic outdoors, you'll agree after your stay that life is better at the lake!

Due to the steep and rocky shoreline, there is no direct lake access from the cottage.
The street has views of Jamestown Marina below.
*I take my cleaning practices seriously and follow the guidelines of POSI (Prevention of the Spread of Infection) which includes Covid. If you have questions regarding these practices please let me know.
Make sure you check the box “I am travelling with pets” in order to get the pet fee at the time of booking. If there is no marked or paid pet fee you will be considered in violation of house rules.

About the host
Hosted by Suzanne Mason
Looking for a place to get away from it all, I purchased 🌳Shady Lake Hideaway in June of 2020. Whether my family and I are spending the day tubing, knee boarding, water skiing, fishing, or simply raft floating in the beautiful jade waters of Lake Cumberland, we always enjoy coming back to the cottage to relax, hang by the fire, grill some eats, roast some marshmallows and play a few games before sleeping that deep sleep you get after having a hard day of play.
Being the daughter of an elite Army Ranger, I have had an upbringing that has allowed me to live in different states and countries. No matter where my family and I travel, the simple beauty found amongst nature has always been our most memorable adventures. I believe life is about moments...even the mishaps add to the adventure!

No matter where my family and I travel, the simple beauty found amongst nature has always been our most memorable adventures. I believe life is about moments...even the mishaps add to the adventure!
Why they chose this property
I started water skiing when I was in junior high school and many summers were spent on the waters of Lake Cumberland boating and tubing. I grew up and came back with my own family. I toured Jamestown and this cottage with my husband and children. All of my kids liked this property. When we lived in Germany we also lived in a hexagon shaped house. One-of-a-kind seems to catch our attention. Sometimes life is that simple. There was a bidding war and my youngest son told me what he thought the offer should be so we looked like we meant business. My oldest son clinched the deal by choosing our final counter-offer. All 3 kiddos helped choose the name to describe the property. It has been a family affair from the beginning. Some places just have that good vibe! It's just that simple.
What makes this property unique
🌳Shady- The shade from Kentucky's surrounding forest is a huge benefit to the property. Past noon, most of the property is covered in shade and this is the reason why it was incorporated into the name of the property.
🌳Lake- Don't be mistaken, I was drawn to Harbor Springs Drive because it is a stone's throw from the Jamestown Marina. The convenience is top-notch. Life is better at the lake.
🌳Hideaway- The way the cottage and the outdoor spaces fit into the land around it, gives the cottage a comfortable and protected feel. Some of the veteran residents of Harbor Springs Drive have said that the cottage has been called "the nut house", as in hexagonal nuts and bolts, and simply the hexagon house. Either way, it's the only house of this shape on the street. It is our hideaway to get away from it all and enjoy our time together.
Live, Love, Lake!
