Private Lake House Retreat

You will love this lake house retreat. This beautiful 3 bed 2 bath house is hidden on a quiet dead end street. The views from the dining room and back deck are breath taking. We offer access to 3 docks on the bayside of the street with the public boat launch just a half mile away. There is plenty of room for your boat. Our docks are available for your use year round however in the winter the water levels are low and may limit the access to the docks. The newly constructed 4 lane bridge is also a half mile away and offers a walking and biking trail that will take you over to the Land Between The Lakes National Park.


All linens are provided, the kitchen has all the basic pots and pans you need for every day cooking. If there is a specific pot or pan you need we suggest you bring it with you, this house is stocked like a vacation home. Free wifi is provided.(Password will be provided when you arrive). • The neighborhood is located on a dead end street and is usually very quiet. • Our neighbors’ kids play in the street so please drive with caution. • The grill is propane and the propane is provided. Bring a lighter as ours tend to walk off. • The outdoor grill is not cleaned by the cleaning staff, please clean up after yourself. Also, please excuse the last guest for not listening to the first part of this statement. • You are welcome to swim at the shore, or fish of any of the 3 docks you see. • The bottom of the lake is rocky and semi-muddy. I recommend wearing lake shoes. • Yes, you can fish from the shoreline. KY fish and game laws apply. • You can use my covered dock at the end of the street. • Everyone is welcome to come to the end of the street an use my lot at the end of the point. Your pets are welcome with an additional cleaning fee per pet. Our grocery stores are no comparison to the stores most are used to in the city. I am (almost) always available by phone or email. Our cell service isn’t always the best so please leave a voicemail if I do not answer.

With being on the lake there is always a chance of bugs, please understand we do everything we can to keep the outside of the house clean but sometimes it just is not possible. June, July, and August have what is called a Mayfly hatch occasionally, they do not bite and are good for fishing.

CHECK IN IS 4:00 PM CST CHECK OUT IS 11:00AM CST

Steps from water/ boat dock.
Great place to stay. Served all our needs. The house was very well equipped with towels, kitchen supplies. There was a KitchenAid mixer, blender, nice pots, and pans, plenty of utensils. Two grills on deck patio furniture. Extra lawn chairs. Nice appliances. Icemaker worked great. More than enough boat docs. We even got a covered one. Property manager lives three doors down. He took really good care of us. Had a few request he took care of them immediately.

Peaceful & relaxing lake getaway
The property is exactly as described. It is very clean with lots of space inside & out. The lake is very nice & calm. Very easy to swim in off shore. We brought paddle board & spent one of the day just floating around & swimming in the bay. The host communication was excellent. Would definitely recommend this place to friends & family.

Relaxing at the lake
The property was as pictured and clean. Nice quiet street and the home had plenty of space. We rented a pontoon and our 8 yr old grandson caught his first catfish, almost 3 lbs. ! Would have liked a tv in our grandsons room, but we knew when we rented there wasn’t one. I brought my laptop and he was able to watch streaming channels from the homes free internet/Wi-Fi.

Fell way short of our expectations
We really wanted to love this place. The great location, the beautiful views of the lake, the easy access to the water, it is all as described. So, if you are planning on spending all your time in, by, or on the water, this might work for you. If, however, you are also looking for indoor comforts, you might be disappointed. Our biggest issues were the bedrooms. The room downstairs was extremely loud since the air conditioner is literally on the other side of the bed's headboard. I am not sure how anybody could get a good night's sleep there. My family couldn't. The bunk bed frame is so squeaky that you can hear it throughout the entire house every time someone turns in that bed. I don't know how more than one person can sleep in that bed and get any rest. Except for the room with the bunk bed, none of the rooms have bedside lamps. If you want to read an old fashioned book at night, you will have to do it with the overhead lights on. If you need to get up in the middle of the night, good luck finding the light switches on the wall. Nor ideal for kids or elderly people. The bedside lamps are certainly not a huge issue but representative of the overall lack of TLC. This house could be a real gem but needs some serious attention, starting with a deep cleaning (think cabinet and closet door, floor boards, THE SCREENED-IN PORCH!). Making sure that the doors fit well into their frames might also prevent mice in the house. Not my idea of a relaxing vacation to start the day by cleaning mouse droppings off the kitchen counter. To summarize, we were determined to have a good time and we did -- but it shouldn't have taken such effort. Btw, the property manager was very responsive and immediately took care of issues that we reported to him; namely, those issues that could easily be addressed (Obviously, he couldn't have done anything about the location of the air conditioner, etc.).

Our family of four takes our two grandparents to this or neighboring lake properties every 4th of July weekend. Lucas never fails to deliver a great, hassle-free renting experience. Recommend the BBQ at Greg's Grill and ice cream at Lake Barkley Marina. Good summer fun!

Lovely view!
The view and the multi-levels of decking allowed us to enjoy the lake and not be cramped! We had some squirrels visit us on the screen in porch as they had a nest in the rafter (or maybe we visited them). Manager was very quick so acknowledge them. Open floor plan was nice. Very clean. The basement was very cold (we had temps in the 40’s - 60’s) and no matter what we did on the thermostat it remained cold. You may want to pack extra blankets! Otherwise, we enjoy our stay and would go back!

Nice place to just hang out after a day of fishing or exploring the area. Clean and comfortable and private enough without feeling completely out in the boonies.

Cul de sac on a cove = peace and quiet.
We enjoyed our stay overall. The location is perfect for us. River views and we love the cove as well. Communication with the property owner and check In was easy. The front door entrance was a mess due to a birds nest on the front porch. The kitchen sink leaked twice while we were there which was a huge nuisance. Lucas fixed it once and then it broke again. Just a suggestion to the propert owner. Go the extra mile and fix that the right way so future guests won’t have the same issues we did. The view of the cove and the ability to walk right down to the river is awesome. Overall we enjoyed ourselves. Dealing with the broken sink was inconvenient and frustrating but we made the best of it. The wildlife was awesome. If you love Bald Eagles you’ll see some for sure.

Great Location!
We spent Thanksgiving weekend at the lake house and really enjoyed it. The location was great, the view was wonderful and the house had everything we needed for a great weekend. The only issue we had while there was the basement was pretty chilly compared to the upstairs but it was manageable with extra blankets on the bed for sleeping. Overall it was a great trip and somewhere we would absolutely visit again! The host was very helpful as well. I messaged on the day we were to arrive that our arrival time would be later than expected and they had the house lights turned on and ready for us when we got there so we didn't have to walk into a dark house that night. Very thoughtful!

Nice relaxing few days. Quiet neighborhood. Easy access to lake. Well stocked. Rented pontoon from the property manager that was few doors down. Easy process. Enjoyed our time on the lake but I will say if you don’t know lake Barkley it isn’t easy to navigate to avoid shallow areas. Loved all the hummingbirds around. Would stay again.

Our experience was great. The house was extremely clean, decorated nicely, comfortable and fun to spend time in. The screened-in porch on the back with the lake view was perfect for early morning coffee and late game nights. We loved the large decks on the front and back, along with the large yard. Kayaks were available upon request. The neighborhood was safe and friendly. It was a quick drive to anything you needed. Lucas was quick to respond and very helpful. Couldn't have asked for more.
