Peaceful Place to Stay
My husband and I stayed at this cabin while visiting The Ark and other attractions in the area. It was perfect for us in every way. Very quiet with a beautiful view of the lake. The cabin was very clean upon arrival. Although we did not do much cooking, it appeared all cooking utensils were provided. Donny was a wonderful host and checked with us every day to see if we needed something. This place is a 👍

Can't wait to come back!
We really enjoyed our stay. The location was great for going to the Ark and Creation Museum. Cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Kids really enjoyed the lake -fishing, swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding. It was nice to have access to kayaks, floaties, paddle board, etc. If your looking for a relaxing vacation on the lake, we highly recommend this lake rental!

Even Better Than Advertised
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house was very clean and cozy and the dock setup is amazing. Our kids really enjoyed swimming off the dock and having fun with the kayaks and paddle board. My wife and enjoyed hanging out and eating meals with the family under the large covered deck that looks out onto the lake. The property owner was very helpful and responsive.

Home Away From Home
We loved our time at Paradise Cove! The cabin is quaint & cozy with everything you need. After exploring all the area attractions each day, we had family time around the fire pit to make s’mores & memories. Donny (host) was fantastic to work with, making sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Paradise Cove is their personal home & you can tell they love it. If we ever find ourselves in the area again, I’m reaching out to Donny to secure our dates! Stay here - you won’t be disappointed!

Great outdoor living. Lake fun Close to the Ark Encounter.
We stayed a few days with two of our grandkids. I like the water and so do the kids. Poppa loves fishing and is teaching his grandson. Moening’s place is great! Close to the Ark Encounter and right on the lake. We had all we needed. Host was kind and very accessible. Beds were comfy. If a longer stay we would need a washer and dryer, but we made due for our three night stay. A+

Moening Lakehouse Magic 🤗
The Moening Lakehouse was the icing on our cake for our trip to the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter. We were able to park right beside the house which made it easy for my mom and aunt to get into. The electronic lock meant no keys to keep up with. The house was cozy, well designed, and stocked with essentials. The front deck overlooking the lake was amazing. My sons stayed down on the dock fishing and swimming and we capped each night off with s'mores by the firepit. I would love to go back and just spend a few days there. It was beautiful and relaxing.

We appreciated Donny's quick replies to all questions we had & his willingness to share kayaks, etc. & texts of fish that were the "catch of the day" by other guests. The location was ideal to be able to get to the Ark Encounter & then get back to the fun activities at the lake (side note - driveway is very steep). Even though we only stayed a day & a half, my family enjoyed hours fishing (both day & night); listening to the sounds of nature around the lake; & watching the boats out on the main part of the lake. Donny is accurate with the amenities description on the site, but I had overlooked the cottage not having a washer/dryer on site. We were on a long road trip & had been planning on doing laundry at the different properties we stayed at. Most of the other properties we had looked at had them, so I had honestly quit looking specifically for that amenity. We made it work as our KY part of the trip was our 2nd to last stop; just something to consider if that amenity is a "deal breaker" for you (especially if you plan on doing lots of water activities & want to do laundry). I kept the 5/5 as it was not listed & it was my error for not noticing it was not available. Another "feature"/highlight not listed, but that was a wonderful surprise & certainly added to the value of this location (IMO) was being able to see both the sunrise (looking out to the lake from the dock) and the sunset (looking the opposite way from the dock) - lots of photo-ops :)

Lake days are the best days!!
This property is just as described and more. Such a charming cottage and property full of lake life fun. I was mostly impressed with the thought out details that made every inch of space so practical. Hooks and drawers in all the right places, pocket doors that make the space feel larger. Fully equipped kitchen with CLEAN fridge, stove, microwave and dishes. I do recommend looking at what they have before running to Walmart.. I bought TP, paper towels, paper products and plastic utensils, sponges for dishes, foil, lighters, etc … but they already had it all. We came in March so we did not come with the expectation of using the outdoor amenities but they were available and we did have a memorable night by the fire with our teenage boys. Donny was great to rent from. If I had to say one thing that could be improved (definitely not a deal breaker) it would be the main bedroom mattress. It was perfect for my husband, but I found it to be too firm. Plus side was the sheets and comforter were very comfortable and clean! (I’m usually the kind of person who brings my own bedding and when I don’t .. I do a full inspection before climbing in) I didn’t feel the need here and that made my OCD heart happy 😊 I bet this lake property could only be better with warmer weather. Hope you enjoy as much as we did.
