The property was spacious, we had 2 couples and 6 kids with plenty of places to sleep. The dock access right on property was great for swimming and paddleboarding. If you rent a boat definitely look for one at the Eddyville marina as Moon River is much further. It was very well stocked with anything you could need. The property has ton of trees which is nice but also had to sweep every day to clear the deck and dock etc- a leaf blower would be a great addition. The only thing that put a pretty big damper in the weekend was the heat- it was 100 degrees outside and the AC never got below 75. It would have helped if the AC had been turned on prior to our visit.

We're so glad you enjoyed the space, and especially the dock and the paddleboards we provide! We always recommend Eddy Creek Marina as it's by far the closest one to the house, less than a 10minute drive. The house is surrounded by big, gorgeous trees which is great in the summer because of the shade they provide, and of course falling leaves aren't a problem until early September (there is a leaf blower in the shed if that was a necessity). It's unfortunate that it was a very hot the weekend you were there, and the AC was on, we just set it at a higher temp to conserve energy when no one is in the house. We live 3 hours away so we're not able to adjust it right before an arrival. However if all doors are kept closed the house cools down as needed, and the ceiling fans in every room and several floor fans help also.

Very nice, well taken care of, unique lake house! We loved all the antiques and super cool stained glass windows!There is a private boat dock that sits in the cove behind the house that the owner allows you to park your own boat! We rented one from the arena and it was so nice to be able to park it for our stay! We cant wait to come back!Thank you for our stay!!

Beautiful home

Great place to stay had everything we needed and great dock. The pictures don’t do the house justice. Hosts were fantastic and non intrusive. One tip the moon river marina offers multi day boat rentals. And Eddy creek marina very fair on gas prices.

Wonderful cabin, lake access could be better

Love the cabin, the host goes above with stocking and amenities inside. Plenty of room , nice deck, screened in room , really couldn’t ask for more . My only concern is the lake access. Many lakes in Kentucky are man made and as a result are cabins built on steep hillsides.

Thank you for your comments about the home, we do our best to make it very comfortable and to keep it well stocked for our guests. As for the lake access, it's true that the home is built on sloping land. But the listing photos clearly show the steps down to the lake and we mention that there are many steps down to the water. So it seems odd to look at the photos, book the property, and then complain about access to the lake. We hope that future guests will read the descriptions thoroughly, look at all the photos, and contact us with any questions before booking.

Great location and owners

Loved everything about the house except the AC wasn’t working great. The owners were very helpful and had a guy out the next morning but the temp was inconsistent throughout the house.

We're glad you enjoyed the house and location. The HVAC system is older and requires some maintenance (keeping a filter clean) that we will definitely be more on top of in the future. And we would have had someone to fix it right away but we weren't told about the problem until Sunday evening. We always tell our renters to let us know about a problem right away so we can take care of it! Also it's important to keep in mind that during this particular stay there were excessive heat warnings as temps were in the mid to upper 90s. But there are floor fans or ceiling fans in every room so with normal summer weather the home is very comfortable.

Family vacation with friends

We spent 9 nights at this home for our first ever family vacation. Our kids ages range from 13 - 28. The home was very spacious leaving room for everyone to spread out and not get in each others way. The bathrooms are stunning. The kitchen is very well stocked. The whole house has everything you need as if you were already home. I enjoyed coffee every morning on the deck and the screened-in porch when it rained. We spent lots of time on the dock fishing and in the water. We highly recommend.

Perfect lake house

Brenda’s home was just what we all wanted and needed! The house was comfortable, clean and beautifully styled. A perfect combo of rustic and modern with all the comforts of a home! There was enough seating at the dinner table as well as a big table with lots of seating outside-huge plus, and often hard to come by! Many deck levels were very fun to hang out at! Fire pit with lots of wood provided by the owners! Loved all the bird feeders on the top deck, which was huge and completely surrounded by trees! Enough bath and beach towels, extra blankets and pillows, and all beds were comfortable! Kitchen was well stocked with variety of cooking utensils, as well as spices, sugar, etc. Fishing by the dock was superb, kids kept catching fish all weekend long, as well as seeing turtles! The area is wooded with tall old trees, and is easy to get to from the main road. Big thanks to Brenda for letting us spend such a fun weekend in her beautiful home!

If you're looking for a quiet off the beaten path place, this is it. We were able to enjoy our morning coffee out on the dock listening to the wildlife, not traffic. The house is exactly as described, and very unique. Paddle-boards and life jackets, swimming off the dock, and a fire pit with wood provided, made staying here complete.

Beautiful peaceful home on the lake. Clean and well stocked with everything you need. Comfortable beds and plenty of space and seating for people to hang out. Most of our time was spent on the huge deck that's shaded by large trees. Very relaxing.
