Great Nolin Lake Stay

We have stayed here before and every time has been wonderful. Communication is great and the home is cozy, clean and comfortable. The covered deck is a great place to hang out after a day on the lake.

Quick getaway

Everything was as listed. Clean and comfortable quick trip with the family. Drive to Mammoth cave visitors center was longer than expected, but that's cause we didn't do our homework properly. It is about 50 minutes to the main mammoth cave entrance.

Excellent

This house was exactly what we needed, relaxing, clean and in a nice area. We loved exploring Kentucky. Mammoth cave was amazing, we went canoing down the green river, we swam almost daily in the lake. Lake Nolin is beautiful and clean. We enjoyed the walk, it's not bad at all. Kentucky is a beautiful state and we'll definitely be back. The beds were comfortable and the house had everything we needed. The Amish community was a pleasant surprise!

Exceptional!!

Our stay was beyond exceptional. The property owner, Jason was so incredibly kind and accommodating. He provided us a very detailed overview of the property, how to get to the lake and things to do in the area. The property was clean and inviting and we had the best time. Our kids had a blast fishing and swimming off the dock, which was secluded and the perfect little relaxation spot. I cannot recommend this property enough! If I could give 10 stars I would! Can’t wait to return!

Cozy Lakeside Home

The property was pristine and just as described. The information included was extremely detailed and helped us prepare for our relaxing stay. A short walk down the road takes you to a stunning lake and huge dock where we were able to swim and fish. It took us about an hour to get to Mammoth Caves- we didn’t get to experience the ferry because the water levels were low. Be prepared to do a bit of driving because everything is spread out but it is beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Kentucky Lake Cabin

This cabin is so wonderfully perfect! Our family of 5 comfortably stayed here for 5 nights. The layout allowed us togetherness with multiple options to have quiet space. The deck seating by the frog pond was our favorite retreat. The lake is a little hike away from the house, but the reward is privacy. It reminded me of undeveloped lakes in Northern Minnesota, but the water was much warmer! The Dollar Tree nearby was helpful for last-minute items. We had a baseball tournament in Elizabethtown, and ultimately wished we had stayed closer as it ended up being a lot of driving on the twisting country roads. We hope to make a return trip with more time to explore the area!

Beautiful and cozy

We loved the home! It’s beautiful, cozy and quiet! Our stay was fantastic and we would definitely stay again! Our only suggestion is that the directions, even using the alternate directions, did not get us to the home. This could be because it was dark. We would suggest giving directions to Circle Drive rather than the large building. Once we found Circle Drive, we found the home easily.
