About this house rental
Located directly across from King Creek & Big Bear community and at the end of a cul-de-sac for privacy, with views of the lake from all areas of the home.

We stayed here as a family, 2 grandparents a family of 4 and a family of 5 so 11 people total. Kids ages ranging from 4-14. We loved it. Rented a pontoon boat from big bear marina, campfires with smores in the evening, fishing from the dock. It was a wonderful place to stay and everyone is already saying thy want to do the exact same thing next year

Loved this new location for our family and our Kentucky Lake family vacation! Spacious accommodations and great lake access for both of our boats, with the covered dock. Boat ramp access was fantastic! Grandkids loved the house, the outside area (they were amazed at the tree in the middle of the upper deck and lower driveway), the firepit area (which was a great place to wind down at the end of the day). I would have to say the ONLY thing that we could suggest for this awesome place is a bigger fridge (or a second fridge possibly on lower level) - with our family and eating all of our meals on site or on the boat, space was a little tight in the fridge. Communication with management was fast and efficient! Thank you for letting us stay with you and making more memories for our family!

This house is perfectly located off our favorite cove on KY lake. Comfortably sleeps 10 adults. Dock still had plenty of water to moor even over labor day weekend with extremely low water levels. The back yard area is the highlight of the property with numerous areas to sit and enjoy the water.

Stayed over Memorial weekend and it was fantastic. The house is wonderful. Plenty of space for our 4 adults and 3 teens. One of the best locations on the lake. Close to Moors, Big Bear and King Creek yet quiet and relaxing. Amanda was great and provided all information needed.

The house is in a great location, with very nice outside areas to view the lake, Access to the dock was an added feature for our crew. The house was nicely furnished and had all the amenities that we expected.
Owner was very responsive to our questions. Can't go wrong with this lake property.

We had 3 families stay this past weekend. Our son brought his boat and was able to dock it at the house. We floated by the dock and it was perfect! The house was beautiful and well stocked--we did not need anything! We did bring a few air mattresses because our kids brought friends. We had plenty of room! Indoor and outdoor space was great! Plenty of seating to eat out doors and plenty of seating on back sunroom to eat/play games indoor. We all loved it and will be back!!

Excellent clean property
We’ve been coming to Kentucky lake from Southern IL for the past 12+ years. This has been the cleanest house we’ve ever stayed in and one of the best for easy access to their dock. We enjoy being close to Moors and being just across the lake from the cliffs and beach. We put our boats in at Big Bear campground which was super close. The dock was about 8-9 ft deep when we were there, so no worries about shallow water. We had plenty of room for 6 adults and 6 kids. The two pullout couches helped.
The owners had lots of amenities for us. There is plenty of parking too. We were worried about only having 2 bathrooms with so many people, but it worked out just fine. Couldn’t rate this property any higher. We’ve never repeated a stay at a house on Kentucky lake but hope to with this one.

Awesome view. Great setting with a good size dock
This house was very very clean. Everything worked work. Large porch to hang out and look over the water. House has an excellent setting. Very well equipped with gas grill and logs for the fire. Plenty of seating. Sleeps a lot of people but only 2 bathrooms. And one bathroom is only accessible from the master. Didn’t affect us much but it’s good to know if you plan on having 10-12 ppl stay for a week. We will be renting this place again! The setting is unbeatable.

Perfect spot for gathering with friends
The property is wonderful. Recently updated and there are so many places to sit and watch the world go by. Loved the easy access to the dock and the boat launch (Big Bear) is literally one street over. Will definitely be coming back!

Spring break 2021
We came this spring and thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Kentucky Lake. The space was newly renovated and nicely decorated. The beds were very comfortable. The 4th and 5th bedrooms are pull-out sofas in the sun porch areas but we didn’t need to use them. We loved having the dock available to fish off of and park our boat. The boat launch and park were within walking distance.

Beautifully decorated and very clean
This property has recently been updated and is extremely clean. It's décor is very nicely done. We had a great time and it was very comfortable. One minor issue was the extra bedrooms (# 4 and 5) are sun rooms which had no curtains or doors. I would however stay again.
