About this property

Updated cottage across from Lake Barkley, awesome patio, pets welcome!

Unwind in this great nicely updated cottage across the street from Lake Barkley. Freshened up with love and attention to detail. We kept the unique vintage style and added modern touches like new appliances, new flooring, fresh paint and great coffee/wine drinking screened in patio that will fit the whole family!
Community boat ramp is a 10 min walk.
Easy access to Hwy 68 will lead you to all the wonderful things to do in The Land Between the Lakes. Start with antiquing in historic Cadiz, go to the planetarium or bison prairie. Try horseback riding, biking, hiking on and off paved trails, kayaking, the best fishing around. Boat ramp near by. Land Between the Lakes has several marinas with restaurants on the water, there are local cafe style, bbq, and Mexican restaurants. If you want to stay in and cook, fully stocked kitchen and a grill.
Entertainment year round!
We are available to answer any questions, we are the owners and self manage all three of our homes. When you call, you reach "US" my husband John and I are near by to assist or answer any questions.
John and I are experienced hosts w/3 homes near Lake Barkley Ky

This is a very wonderful property located on the land between the lakes. It is up on a hill and allows you to see the sunset and beautiful surrounding views of the lake. The house itself is very clean with plenty of space and a nice back yard. The property is very large and has a big screened in porch. It’s especially nice to sit in this porch as the sun sets. The owners had very good communication and provided plenty of information to make our stay the best possible. We hope to return someday.

Great place. Hosts are responsive to questions. VERY Well stocked kitchen. Plenty of games and puzzles. Place lookes recently remodeled. For a place that takes pets, there were no smells or stains. I would stay there again. Nice large screen porch. A/c was very quiet and easily kept up with the 100 degree heat.

The house is so warm and inviting...like home away from home. Very clean and comfortable. We liked the location, which is near the lake, on a quiet street of houses. Lake Barkley State Park is less than 2 miles away and Cadiz was only 7 miles. We loved the sun porch, where we spent a great deal of time in spite of the high temperatures.We appreciated the extra toiletries in each bathroom and ample kitchen necessities. We had a great stay here. We were happy!

More family rented house next door, so ideal location for both families to be together. Fortunate to meet Julie, very pleasant. Will be back next year….

Thanksgiving Getaway

I took my daughter, daughter-in-law and five grandchildren, (two are 9, one is 5, and twins are almost 2) on a short getaway (just two days). The location to all of the things we wanted to see at Land Between the Lakes was great. It was close enough to come back to the house for lunch and a short break between morning and afternoon events.

Thank you for your feedback and choosing to stay at our home! We're thrilled that our home's location was convenient to all the things you wanted to see during your Thanksgiving getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Julie

Host profile image
My husband John and I are experienced short term rental hosts with 3 properties. Creekside Cottage is our home sweet home, and only offer it when traveling. We also have two homes side by side across from Lake Barkley Kentucky.
We love creating special places for our guests to enjoy.
We also sell antiques as a hobby, each home has "one of a kind" items not found anywhere else. We hope we can help you create wonderful memories and a feeling of relaxation and comfort whenever you stay in our homes.

Why they chose this property

This is our favorite property to date, as it was a complete remodel that we did together. We love everything about this property. It is perfect in size, spacious and cozy. We filled it with mid-century furnishings, giving the house a warm and inviting vibe. We created a special space for retreaters to go if the weather is not cooperating with vacation plans. We call it the rainy day room. So far we have filled it with board games, books and a treadmill. But our favorite space is a large screened patio on the back of the house. Perfect for coffee or wine drinking.

What makes this property unique

Also note that we offer the house next door for rent. This is a perfect situation for large families needing more than one house. Plan ahead if you want to book both homes!
