Real Lake Cabin

This is a great older cabin that has had some renovations and updates. It is not the Ritz in the woods but is a very nice cabin with all the amenities that you should need. The screened in porch is a great area with a view.

The place is as advertised, a comfortable lake cabin with a boat slip and easy lake access. The kitchen is well furnished and the big porch is great for eating meals. There is no dining area inside.

Relaxing lakeside gem.

While the launching ramp and dock access can be a bit taxing this cabin is pure relaxation with a view. We have rented several places around this beautiful lake but none with ease of access provided here. The cabin and fishing made for a great birthday getaway. Hope we can return next year.

Great Location. Nice Home.

The place was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The only thing is that the fireplace has been used so the den area smelled of wet soot. Other than that, it was awesome. The screened porch was fantastic.

Great location and super clean

This cabin was a perfect stay for us. I loved the screened in porch, the front porch, and being able to dock our boat just down the hill from the cabin. The location was excellent. We found everything we needed to cook with. I did miss having a dishwasher bc we don’t eat out a lot but it’s such a nice place, would definitely come back.

Nice place but come prepared

Nice location and having dock access was nice with a boat we had. It’s Cumberland so it’s going to be a steep climb from boat no matter where you’re at but it was manageable. The one BIG Bummer was no propane in either of the 2 tanks. Brought $80 in steaks that didn’t get cooked. Bring your own TP to make sure you have enough (we always bring ours during VRBO stays)

Perfect for small families

We absolutely loved staying at this property on Lake Cumberland. The neighbors were so friendly and welcoming. The location of the boat launch in the neighborhood was perfect. My husband always launches the boat by himself so this initially created some anxiety for me, but it forced me to drive the truck and boat trailer while my husband drove the boat to the dock. Now I'm a pro. Finding a house with a dock is a must for us. The dock is beautiful and was accessible even during a time when the lake water level was high. We have a rather large truck and had the boat trailer to park and were able to park in the yard next to the house. The bed linens were nice and clean. The inside of the house was also very clean. I always look for cleanliness in reviews before I book a location. We will definitely book here again if we come back to the area.

Be prepared to clean

When we arrived, yard was overgrown. You could tell it hadn’t been cleaned this season. Steps from driveway have no handrail. Coffeemaker had old coffee caked in it and Keurig had old water in tank. Bedrooms were clean. Grill was so dirty, wouldn’t touch on filthy back porch. Living room furniture that is white needs to be cleaned. Chest that doubles as coffee table was broken across top. Screened porch was nice. Our dock was underwater and steps to dock broken. Stephanie never replied when we emailed her. We had a good time but didn’t enjoy the home. No easy access to water.

Beautiful views, Wonderful owner, incredible porch, comfy beds

No pictures can or will do justice to this quaint lake house. It was one of our best vacation destinations because it had everything, lacked nothing! Every evening we loved the gigantic screened in porch, just relaxing and playing games with the kids. Every morning we enjoyed sunrises from the dock. House was CLEAN, no old food left in fridge or cupboards. We brought our boat and the boat ramp was great. Bathroom is obviously newly remodeled and looked great! Going into this I was worried about the lack of Internet/Cable but quite honestly there is so much to do during the day that we came home exhausted. We would end our days having dinner on that gorgeous screened in deck and playing a few of the owner supplied games. It was so nice to be away from the TV and engage each other for a change. Will return without a doubt, for longer next visit! Tips to future renters: Bring some candles for the screened in deck. It's too fun to not be out there and enjoy the quiet evenings playing games or talking by candle light. They tell you which dock is theirs by a dock number but the numbers are only visible if you're standing on the shore or on the dock itself. The numbers you see from the water are not the right numbers. If you have a boat trailer of any size, there is plenty of trailer parking along the boat ramp road. Don't waste your time fighting to fit it in the small spot next to the house. Bring some wheel chocks as it's on an incline. The owner says there's limited cell-data service but our sprint phones had data service good enough to watch youtube and get work email.

Great place

We very much enjoyed staying at the cabin, very clean and a lot of updates to the property, it was very homey with a touch of rustic., we had 6 Adults and a toddler, the Sleeping arrangements did involve two people sleeping in the living room on pullouts, which didn’t bother us any. The kitchen was a big plus for us, we prepared all our meals while there for 5 days. And we enjoyed eating on the large screened in porch. The neighborhood was very quiet, ( they are currently remodeling the cabin across the street, so a couple of days there was some noise from construction, but that wasn’t an issue for us, we know those things happen and we were on the lake most of the day fishing., we really like having the dock available. We could access the boats at any time and pick up any who didn’t want to get up early and go. And we could also fish an hour or so after dinner. There is a slight down hill walk to get to the boat dock. ( it’s not paved and no steps, just a path from the top of the hill.). But we didn’t have any problems. Anyone who has ever boated or fished Lake Cumberland knows that everything headed in to Cumberland is down hill. And up hill coming out. And finding a cabin on the water or close to the water with a dock is very hard to do . The roads around the cabin are a little tight, but once we figured out how to maneuver around we were ok. Backing the boat down to the Clifty Creek ramp is a little long, but not a issue for us. Stephanie was always quick to respond to any questions that we had and offering point of interest for our grandson, and even extended our checkout time on the Final day. We will be coming back and staying in the future.

location was wonderful with easy access to dock and ramp to launch boat. house was fine to sleep and make breakfast then be on the boat all day. the cleaning has a lot to be desired. surface cleaned only, cabinets had old food, pans needed scrubbed before use. no extra necessities such as toilet paper or garbage bags. Rustic cabin is a new way to say needs updated.

2 night stay. Friday and Saturday nights. Clean comfortable home. Strong wi-fi. Most everything needed was supplied, towels, linen, pots, pans, etc. bed was firm and comfortable. lake access was close but the water water level was very low at the time of our visit. Neighbors that we met, were hospitable if not friendly. Only room in driveway for a very small boat trailer and truck. Overall very happy with our stay. Hope to return next year.

No Boat Trailer Parking

This cabin was adorable. It does need a good cleaning. There were crumbs in the silverware drawer and dog hair on the porch. There were to be no pets. So either the owner had a dog or prior renter. The cabin was well fitted with everything you need. It has a great location and dock. It should be noted there is no parking and definitely no where to park a 26 foot trailer. I took my boat down this road. I was very upset that all the tree limbs scraped the side of my boat. Please just be honest with people about parking. I will stay again because the location is great and overall the cabin is adorable. Suggest getting a better cleaning crew.

Host profile image
Our family has been coming to Clifty Creek at Lake Cumberland since the 70's. We had such great memories of our childhood at the lake and we wanted to make great memories with our kids ... a girl, 2 boys, 2 golden retrievers and 1 chocolate lab. In 2004, our family had the opportunity to purchase this cabin. Since then there has been very few weekends that we have not been at the cabin. It is such a special place no matter if its summer weekends, holidays, fall or snowing winter nights. We hope you enjoy this cabin and your time there as much as we have through the years.

Why they chose this property

Great opportunity to stay at a cozy lake cabin, within an easy walk to your boat.
