About this property

The Salty Dog! 5 Bd/4 Bath, Hot Tub, Pickleball Court, Perfect for Families

Welcome to The Salty Dog! 5 minutes from Wax Marina & 15 minutes from Mammoth Cave National Park, this spacious & bright home has 5 spacious bedrooms, 4 full baths, multiple seating areas, and large open rooms perfect for entertaining. The home also has an outdoor shower, outdoor fire pit, screened-in deck, separate laundry room, and hot tub. Recently added in September of 2025, the property now features a large flat concrete pad at the bottom of the driveway with a basketball goal and pickleball court/net.

This house is perfect for families and large groups. There are two separate indoor living rooms/family rooms, stocked with plenty of games, puzzles, and kid toys, as well as 5 TVs located throughout the house (one being on the upstairs screened-in deck). The kitchen is large and spacious (and fully furnished), with an island that seats 8 and a large farmhouse dining room table that seats another 8-10. Enjoy cooking a meal on the Blackstone grill located on the screened-in deck, or relax around the fire table while watching TV on the deck. And of course, this house is located right on beautiful Nolin Lake, with a gravel walking path from the house down to the water (approximately 0.3 miles).

Per COE rules, guests are not permitted to use the dock. However, Wax Marina is only a 5 minute drive if you want to be on the water during your visit. Mammoth Cave National Park is also located nearby, making this the perfect getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Danielle Lewis

Host profile image

We live just outside Louisville but spend as much time at the lake as we can. We built this house in 2019 and 2020 so that we could make memories with our family and friends in one of our favorite places in the world! We love hosting and want every person who stays in our home to truly feel like our guest.

What makes this property unique

We built this house with the specific goal of being able to host large groups comfortably (hence the open floor plan, extra large kitchen island, and four full bathrooms inside the home). A couple of years later, we screened-in the upper level deck and added an outdoor shower and hot tub. In September of 2025, we added a large, flat concrete pad at the bottom of the driveway so that we could put in a basketball goal and pickleball court. We try to spend as much time outside as we can, and we want our guests to have plenty to enjoy outside as well.
