Cozy Cabin with Everything you Need

My family, which included a teen, a tween, two grandparents and my spouse very much enjoyed and appreciated the charm and coziness of this cabin. The lake was at its lowest which made it perfect to go find fossils, which we did! It was so nice to come back here and relax after all our cave adventures. We would definitely stay here again. Also, we very much enjoyed finding all the frogs hidden in plain site! That was a fun game.

This cabin sets the standard for VRBO!

Every aspect of this cabin was a premium experience! S’mores kit, firewood & kindling, comfortable beds, fishing rods & tackle box, kayaks & life vests, swimming, Sonos speakers, tvs with Apple TVs, condiments in fridge, toiletries. I could go on and on how great this place was. Did I mention it was SUPER clean? 19min to Mammoth Cave, 20min to a Walmart. It’s going to be so hard to stay anywhere else after this cabin!

Disliked: Communication

Small and cozy but some issues.

When we first arrived we were treated by a mouse on a sticky pad. Needless to say we found mouse droppings in a lot of places. Including our towels. I tried communicating with the owner after our stay and never received a response. The sleeping accommodations are for 7 but that is the only thing. We had to bring seating in from outside to have comfortable places to sit in the living room. There is only enough seating at the kitchen table for 4 but there are tv trays. Other than all of that it was a nice place to stay. Beautiful views and comfortable beds. Also be aware the beds are all upstairs and downstairs which we didn’t realize (but should have). Not a great place for small children or elderly.

About the host

Why they chose this property

Our property sits in Cooks Creek Cove directly across from the Narrows Marina. We love this Cove because it's in a No-Ski Zone, has water year round and is conveniently located on the center of Barren Lake.

What makes this property unique

A Stone's Throw is a unique blend of modern amenities (fiber hi-speed wireless internet, central heat & air and smart TVs) along with eclectic design touches throughout the cabin. We sit at the end of North Gillock Rd in a quiet lakeside neighborhood and have tried to blend in with the natural surroundings to ensure the area wildlife can coexist uninterrupted.
