Mammoth Cave Trip

Great house. Beautiful screened in porch with comfy chairs and a great view. Quiet private road. Close to a convenience store. Close to boat dock for boats and kayaks at the dam which was quiet and beautiful. Gravel drive is very steep. Walkable boat dock but many many narrow stairs.

Relaxing stay

We enjoyed our stay & our trip to mammoth caves. There was plenty of room for our two families. It even gave us nice areas to break away from each other when littles needed to nap. Would return.

Relaxing Stay!

We had a fantastic stay at this spacious house near Mammoth Cave National Park over the Thanksgiving holiday in November of 2023! Our party included six adults and four children, and the house accommodated us perfectly. The kids really enjoyed their own space in the bunk room. The house was incredibly nice, well-stocked, and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the fire pit for relaxing evenings. The drive to Mammoth Cave National Park wasn't too far, making it a convenient location for exploring. We would definitely rent this home again if visiting Kentucky. Highly recommend!

Peaceful

We had a really incredible time. Baby and toddler and teens alike- meeting in the middle between atlanta and Detroit - it was a great spot. The best was just having the big fields to play corn hole together under the wide summer sky and setting sun. Swimming in the little cove lake felt like our own private hidden spot, everyone jumped in with their clothes still on, just great memories were made. Thanks so much. Love the strawberries growing and just the beauty of the Kentucky hills.

New, clean, nice location if you are looking to be away from the city, noises and enjoy a peaceful time off with your family. internet is not existing, very slow, not much of TV channel, was not able to watch the NFL games, we were not happy with mowing the lawn with very loud lawn mower right by the window at 7 am. Too many instructions and penalty for almost everything including the garbage. we enjoy our time at the property, great peaceful location, nice balcony, grill and fire pit. if the above concerns were to be addressed we will not mind going back.

Perfect family getaway!

Our main objective was to see Mammoth caves National park. It was about a 45 minute drive to Mammoth Cave NP. We are a large family from Florida with 10 adults and 4 kiddos (2,4,8,13 years old). The home provided plenty of space for all of us to sleep and relax. Nobody felt cramped. Rooms were very clean and spacious. The downstairs was perfect for the kids. The house itself was beautiful and updated. They provided a lot of amenities and everything was labeled. We enjoyed the fire pit and they even provided the firewood. They left us a nice s’mores kit that my kids were so excited for. At night, we got to see fireflies and in the morning we saw a Doe and her baby! There is also a friendly cat that loves to visit. Boots quickly became a family friend. This was a perfect gem for our family vacation. Overall, I highly recommend and will most likely come back for another stay! Jon is an amazing host and communicates very quickly. He obviously put in a lot of effort for the comfort of his guests.

Let’s do this again sometime.

There were only a few drawbacks to this property. The road going out is very steep and we were thankful to have AWD. The property isn’t really on lakefront and you couldn’t see the water. The cleaning fee was a bit steep especially for a family that likes to return the property as clean as they found it. Negatives aside because the positives outweigh them. Mammoth Cave is less than 20 minutes when taking the ferry. Your navigation apps won’t direct you this route so you need to know how to navigate to it. It’s quite simple. Played golf at Shady Hollow and Park Mammoth. If you’re going to play golf try both. We loved the hiking at Mammoth Cave. The house was very relaxing and the screened deck was the perfect spot for morning coffee and reading a book. We loved our evenings around the camp fire, too and appreciated the supply of fire wood. The open space concept in the family room/dining/kitchen was great. There was plenty of room and we didn’t feel crowded. The view was nice as well. This is just an overall good space to relax. The owner responds very quickly to questions and truly wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stay and that we did. Nice job!

Family Together Time

The house was perfect for a family gathering. Plenty of space and seating indoors and out for cooking, eating, playing games, watching movies, throwing the football, and sitting around the fire. Very clean, beds were very comfortable, and the house was well stocked! By well stocked I mean everything, kitchen utensils, toilet paper, fire wood, marshmallows roasting sticks, pens for playing games, ice etc. Besides food and drinks we also brought our own spices(my husband loves to cook) games (they also have many at the house) and a Bluetooth speaker. I only wish we could’ve stayed longer!

We enjoyed the cabin in the woods

We had a group of 11 for a long friends/family weekend. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, pots, pans and miscellaneous cookware. The whole place was clean and well represented in the pictures. The host was quick to respond when we had questions before and during our stay. We would totally stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay. We took trips to both the parks. The house was beautiful and clean. It was a fantastic set up for families. Nolin Lake was low so no fishing in early spring here. Will have to make a trip back a bit later in the spring/summer.

Great getaway spot

This place was perfect for our family to get some relaxing time away. The space was clean and perfectly setup. Everything was communicated with great detail. The owners responded very quickly to any messages and had great tips on things to do. There is a steep gravel hill to get into and out of the area so make sure you have a capable vehicle. Our trusty minivan had no problem.

A relaxing getaway

We enjoyed our stay in August 2021. The house was just what we were expecting--we knew ahead of time from reading the VRBO listing, house guestbook, and reviews that grocery stores are not close and that there wasn't a lake view. Our group had a great time enjoying the large porch, the fire pit (with s'more kit waiting for us when we walked in), and huge front yard for the kids to run on. The house has a lot of things you would need, from kitchen items to sand toys for the kids to use at the nearby beach. I'm grateful that the guestbook let us know there are ticks and chiggers in the hiking trails behind the house because we found some on us after we checked. It was a nice experience: very quiet, comfortable, and isolated. The owner was also friendly and quick to respond to questions.

About the host

Hosted by Jon Hathaway

Host profile image
Our family loves the water. We can spend all day out in the lake. It started in 2008 when we bought a junker boat to see if the family would love the water and boating. Fast forward 12 years and we bought a vacation home on the lake so we would always have a place to stay and park our boat. We wanted to share this with others and hope that you see our home as your vacation home as well.
