This property was large enough to accommodate our large group. And the location was perfect proximity to the event we were attending.
10.0 / 10.0
We very much enjoyed our stay at the house and cottage.
The property provided ample parking for all of ohr vehicles plus a boat trailer.
Own private dock made getting out on the water hassle less and there is a boat launch within 2 minutes of the property.
The house and the cottage was more than enough room for a group of 8.
The cottage is a nice addition to give some separation bewtween the adultsand teens.
This is by far the best option for a large / blended / extended family or friends gathering / vacation. I will definitely rent here again.

The place was what we needed to have all the family together to fish, swim or just hang out. The screened in porch was the best part of the house. The floating dock got a lot of use too. There are a lot of stairs so make sure you are ok with that.

Lake house family vacation
Beautiful lake views. Loved the open kitchen living room, with enough seating for every one to share a meal, the owner was quick to respond and have the air conditioning repaired, when it stopped working, we would have liked more privacy with the bedroom

Comfortable and spacious!
This was our first VRBO booking and couldn’t be happier! The house was very comfortable and well equipped. The cottage on the property was perfect for the three teenagers in our group to have their own space. The property owner was very informative and responded to questions promptly. The screen porch was a perfect setting to watch the kids on the dock or enjoy watching the action on the lake.

Great place for a family getaway
We traveled from MO to KY with another family for this lake getaway. The kids loved swimming off the dock. The large living room in the main house has high ceilings, and is a great place to gather for dinner or just chill out. Loved the screen porch. Great place to relax with a cocktail in the late afternoon.

Amazing Lake Vacation
Two families stayed at the Yates property. Everything was just as described. The kitchen was well stocked, there were plenty of towels and enough soap to get you started until you could get to the store. The boys/men in both families enjoyed the “bungalow” of additional space. It was our “man cave” for the week. The views were spectacular and the convenience of being on the lake was awesome! Michael responded very quickly to any questions. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area.

Perfect place to social distance!
Very comfortable and spacious! Had everything we needed...even down to a vegetable peeler! With a Monday to Monday rental there was very little activity on the lake except for Saturday. We were able to kayak and canoe easily and safely. It seemed we had the lake to ourselves. Quiet neighborhood. Owner responded very quickly to my many questions. Wonderful place to slow down, be quiet and enjoy family.

Great fun for all!
Entire extended family had a wonderful time while enjoying this great property. The dock was both a spot to swim and sun and made it so much easier to enjoy boating on beautiful Kentucky lake. Having access to both the house and the cottage made it possible for everyone to have their own space and to enjoy lots of family time as well.

Relaxing and fun stay at Inspiration and Selah
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. With the main home and cottage, there was plenty of space for our two families of 4. The property was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, and the views of the lake are fantastic! The owner was extremely responsive and helpful. Overall a wonderful stay. We hope to be back soon.

Beautiful View
Our family enjoyed our stay very much and Michael was very responsive. It was clean and well stocked in the kitchen. The separate cottage worked well for our family dynamic and having 2 kitchens was helpful for meal preparation.
Navigation to and from the dock takes care with little ones, but the platform was great for them. The only negative we encountered is the lack of handicap accessibility. My mother-in-law was unable to use the downstairs bathroom in the main house because the toilet is on a platform.
