Everything was great. Exactly what I was looking for. To get away from the city and relax. I wanted to use the grill and cook some burgers. All I had to do was go up to Zack’s Food Mart down the street and got everything I needed. The DVD player was there but didn’t have any cords to hook up the tv. I think my seven year old left a DVD in the player when he found out it wasn’t working. The check out instructions did say to check the player and they were not responsible if anything was left behind. That was our fault so I’m upset. The tv was a Roku tv and had satellite, so plenty of options for the kids. I was a little disappointed the Barren River Lake behind the cabin was so low. I did ask around and found out it fills up throughout Spring and tops off at about memorial day. Other than that we had a fantastic time and will be going back.

The location of this cabin was beautiful! The cabin itself however is a little out dated. Tacky signs hang all over with messages for guests to wash dishes/not touch the thermostat/ check out process etc. The scrub brush for the dishes looked like it hadnt been changed in several stays. The beds we uncomfortable. One squeaked with any little movement. The other felt like the middle was caving inward. If you can get past those quirks and some of the outdated it decor, it was nice for a short stay and again the location is breath taking.

Would recommend this cabin again and again! Back deck was my favorite hangout with the gazebo and beautiful lake view. I loved that the cabin was secluded so very relaxing getaway from everything and everyone. Very short drive to restaurants and other stores. Less than a mile to Barren River Lake State Park.

was such a nice quaint cabin - my friends and I had a great stay and spent time on the sizable deck space and walking around the the water (the lake was mostly dried up - maybe for the season?). Cabin was also located in a small neighborhood which wasn’t as secluded as I had hoped but it was still in the country side of KY and we had such a nice time it felt like a weekend camp.

We arrived for our weekend and the power was out due to bad weather. We stayed hoping the power would return and never did. We were able to stay off grid and enjoy each others company with complete humbleness. The owners were very kind and generous to our stay. Highly recommend their hospitality.

House was clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed visiting Paradise Point and Kenny's Farmhouse Cheese. One of the reasons we chose the property is because of the photos of the lake. Unfortunately, the lake is only there a few months of the year.

My wife and I enjoyed our two day stay very much. I thought the cabin was almost perfect. The only downside is that there is quite a bit of traffic noise from a bridge that is quite a ways away but the sound carries.

Very peaceful
What a great cabin and peaceful location. Excellent view of the lake, close to town, and many things to do just minutes away. We had a very relaxing time. Cabin was in excellent condition and very clean. The people who manage it were so friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend this cabin to anyone. Thanks Charles

Lovely Getaway
We had such a lovely time, we extended an extra night! Very cozy, tree-covered property, with a cliff view of the lake. Located on a populated street, but secluded by a long driveway and canopy of trees. It's a short drive to the marina where we rented a boat on Saturday, and an even shorter trip to a nice hike on Sunday. Perfect meet-in-the-middle for Nashville and Lexington.

This cabin was amazing I had taken my sister dor her birthday. The bed was a little on the short end and the back door was hard to close other than that no issues.

Nice couples getaway
Very cozy winter getaway. The cabin was very comfortable and nicely decorated. We saw two bald eagles flying over the lake . Just an added bonus!

Mom/daughter weekend
Second time I’ve rented a hideaway cabin. All thumbs up. Somewhat rustic, but nice and clean place, kitchen had basics (tiny microwave,) front and back porches good for sitting to enjoy beautiful woods, couldn’t find trail to waterside, gas fireplace added coziness. 👍🏻

Great location!
We loved the location and privacy of this property. Had everything we needed and a great view for being so woodsy. Loved the porch swing. Was not too far from town and real close to the park. Wished the outdoor furniture on the back deck was a little more since we love being outdoors.

Really great place. My only complaint, and for me it’s a big issue, was the musty smell. The real problem likely what was causing it, as I had to start antihistamines during my stay. I was able to significantly thwart the smell with Lysol and candles. The front and back sitting areas are great! The view of the lake great! You are secluded without being too far away from other homes and cabins. The interior was clean and both porches were also clean. Outside insects such as spiders and disgusting flying gross things were very minimal which is a huge plus for me. No signs of insects on the interior either. I expected much more as this cabin is nestled among trees on all sides. I would definitely stay again if they could confirm to me that the musty smell had be dealt with. Managers said they would look into it. I saw a comment on bed being squeaky and uncomfortable. I slept in back bedroom and I thought the bed was quite comfortable and did not notice a squeak. I drive a 3rd row SUV and I feel like getting turned around at the base of the drive might be a challenge with anything much bigger. Not impossible, just challenging for some drivers. All in all, a great place.

Beautiful place!
It needed to be cleaned better and the mats in the bathtub are dangerous. They slide around. Having nothing is better. Also, no cable on our last morning. ???

Property was fantastic for a quick Labor Day weekend getaway!
The property was a fantastic little getaway for the family to go exploring caves and hiking! Cabin had everything as explained and was very clean upon arrival. The back porch area is a fantastic place to look out at the lake and relax!

Cabin retreat
This cabin offers a beautiful view of barren river lake. The cabin is cozy and comfortable. There were a few concerns with lighting and water pressure which we had spoke to the manager regarding. We will be back!

Beautiful Property - A Little Hot and Not *Great* for Small Kids
We enjoyed our stay and would absolutely return. I'm leaving this four stars for just a couple of small items: (1) Having to get a physical key was annoying mostly because the instructions said the building had a red roof (which it does not) and no one inside was masked. The key was not in the overnight box, so we had to go inside and wait. (2) The actual check in instructions say that children are only allowed with a signed waiver, but since we were automatically confirmed on VRBO with a stated 6yo in our group, I didn't see that there were warnings or concerns. We didn't have any issues, but young kid should NOT stay here. Aside from the large, ungated cliff outside (which is in the pictures and beautiful) all of the banisters are at least 8 inches apart. My 6yo could have EASILY squeezed through and fell off the second floor. And (3) the AC doesn't work super well and the instructions say to keep the temp at 75, which meant the upstairs was easily 85 at night. We opened windows but it didn't help and there were no fans at the property or any of the local stores. We really had a wonderful time, I'm just posting these items for future guests!

Kentucky cave cozy cabin
Great spot to plan our cave explorations and to return to put up our feet and relax. Not in the thick of things, close but just far enough away. Beautiful view of lake -

Lovely lakeside getaway
I took a mini vacation with my son before school starts and we had a blast! Literally next door to the park. The cabin is beautiful with amazing views. Watching the lake you can see how alive everything is around you. Quiet and secluded with everything you need within 5 minutes. The area has sharp drop offs sand cliffs. I would not bring children under 10 to this cabin, just for safety reasons, my son was a wild child when he was younger.
