Family getaway

This property is beautiful! Its was very home like vibes. My kids loved the loft bedroom! It wasnt too close to neighbors! We enjoyed sitting out on the porch, building a fire. There was really everything here that you needed. We stopped for groceries on the way, and realized we forgot a few things. But they had it!!! A very comfortable stay!

We stayed at this property over the weekend. We chose it based on the reviews. Which I'm sure many people make decisions on travel properties by reading reviews just as we did. However, some of the items in the reviews we found to not be quite the same for our stay. We definitely can't give this place 5 stars.Overall for what we paid it didn't match the 5 star reviews. We give it 3 stars. The hosts were really great about messaging us and answering questions. We did have an issue with the shower not draining properly. We messaged the hosts and they responded immediately. Less than ten minutes later they had a maintenance guy out to fix it.The bedroom downstairs has very thin see thru curtains. Anyone can see right inside and at night I was not comfortable. We ended up putting blankets over the windows. The downstairs bedroom has a closet but its where the cleaning company shoves everything from the vacuum to toilet paper. It was just thrown in. AwfulCleanliness---in some areas--- NO in others. There were lots of cobwebs hanging in corners in the bedroom downstairs. Cobwebs hanging in the overhead doorway of sliding barn door going into the bathroom. Dryer and washer were dirty with sand and roþcks in the dryer. Pots in lazy Susan in corner by coffee pot were nasty. Coffee pot had to be completely cleaned before my husband could use it.

The cabin is tucked into a quiet neighborhood. It was peaceful in the evening and has a nice firepit for evening fires. The cabin was comfortable for four adults with indoor and outdoor seating. The cabin is about a 40 minute drive to the visitors center at Mammoth Cave National Park.

The cabin itself is great and is well-air conditioned and equipped. Our three kids loved the loft and it was nice having kitchen to have breakfast in before going out to explore Mammoth Cave and go horseback riding. We also liked the porch, but were not out on it much, as we discovered there was a hornet’s nest in the bird feeder on the porch. The neighborhood is fairly run down, and some of the roads are blocked off as “private”, so we couldn’t drive around to see the lake. We had planned to utilize the Nolin Lake State Park beach while we were there in mid-July, but were surprised to learn the beach had been closed since April when there were damaging floods. There was no immediate indication when googling the beach that it was closed, so it was a disappointment. We ended up leaving a day early because we’d run out of family activities to do. If you are looking for fresh(ish) food, make sure to pack it and bring it with you, as the shops within a 40 min drive are really limited with their offerings.

Mammoth Cave Adventures w/ a quiet cottage

We thought the cottage was quiet and secluded. Everything was easily accessible and the porch was perfect for a morning cup of coffee. The firepit was far enough from the house to not make everything smell Smokey. Wildlife was beautiful to include a skink (lizard), deer, cat and a screech owl at night. The Lakeside Cafe at the end of the road was absolutely delicious! Pizzas were amazing and cinnamon rolls and breakfast casseroles were scrumptious before heading out to the caves.

Nice gateway for Mammoth Cave NP

Great cabin for a short summer vacation in Mammoth Cave. Very easy check in, check out process. One of the cleanest vrbo we had stayed in. Very comfortable and nicely decorared. Keep in mind, driving to the park visitor center is about 40 minutes. That is where all cave tours start. We really enjoyed biking and hiking in the park as well. Also, keep in mind that Nolin lake park is closed due to flood damage. I didnt realized it and was kind of dissapointed that we couldnt use their beach area and hiking trails. Overall it was a great stay. Recommended.

Perfect weekend getaway

Our family just stayed for two nights here to visit Mammoth Cave and it was the perfect cabin. We spent a ton of time on the giant covered porch enjoying the outdoors and fresh air. The kids loved playing and sleeping up in the loft and the adults appreciated the kitchen with all we needed to cook dinners.
