Sunset Cottage will accommodate multi-family and friend gatherings and reunions, as it has beds for 12 but will sleep up to 14 people.

The property has a gently sloped yard that leads to a private covered dock and 2 jet ski pads. Guests are invited to use the perimeter of the private dock during the summer months as the owner's boat occupies the covered lift. Ropes and bumpers are provided. A fire pit near the water's edge provides the perfect opportunity for roasting marshmallows and hot dogs, or just relaxing and making memories with family and friends.

Sunset Cottage is located in the popular Little River area of Lake Barkley, with Sandy Beach just across the bay. Enjoy your morning coffee while watching the deer play at the water's edge, or catch a glimpse of the famous Bald Eagles and Great White Pelicans as they soar across the lake.

Two kayaks are provided for guests who would like to explore the tranquil area by water.

The home's loft is the ideal space for a family with kids. It has a king-size bed and 2 twin beds with trundles to accommodate 2 additional persons.

We have stayed in several VRBO properties at Lake Barkley, and this one was our favorite! We had four couples, and each of us had our own bedroom and bathroom. The lake access and private dock were perfect for us, and the driveway was spacious enough for our boat trailer. Great stay!

About the host

Hosted by WOW Properties, LLC

Host profile image
We found Sunset Cottage in the Fall of 2016. We are lovers of the lake and outdoors, and wanted to capture memories with our young adult and teen children. We decided to list Sunset Cottage through VRBO since we live in Owensboro, KY, and are unable to be at the lake full time. Sunset Cottage is our Happy Place, and we feel positive that it will become a favorite of yours as well.

Why they chose this property

Simply stated...the view, the lake, the beautiful home. We fell in love....

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with Sunset Cottage because of the design, and the fabulous views of the lake and sunset.
