Kentucky Getaway

This home was perfect for our yearly family getaway. We had kids ranging from 0-10, each family had their own space. We loved the lakeview. Only downfall was most things to do were 35mins or more away.

Enjoyed our stay at this Nolan lake house. House location was perfect for our party. Extremely clean and welcoming. The view was outstanding from the two decks. Made some wonderful memories at the house and on the lake.

This property is AMAZING!! Quite, private road, perfect view of the lake, the 2nd patio was my place to be in the morning. The sunrise was breathtaking, even seen a shooting star! The bedrooms....there is so much room!! Definitely coming back with my entire family for a longer time to enjoy the house and all it has to offer. A weekend isn't long enough!!

Perfect

We had two small dogs and this had a fenced in yard for them which was perfect. We hosted a dinner for our friends and family and had a great time. Love the house and look forward to renting it again.

Summer Family Vacation

This cabin was everything advertised and so much more. Our family had one of the best vacations ever. So much of what we needed was already supplied, everything was clean, in working order and decorated so nice. We would definitely come back again.

Wonderful cabin and room for the entire crew!

This home is so comfy and inviting. It rained the entire time we were there, but the cabin is so spacious with amazing covered decks and plenty of games and indoor activities that we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will definitely be back in better weather to take advantage of the lake!

Beautiful Lake House

We will definitely be returning to this house in the years to come! The lake access wasn’t available unless you wanted to sink in mud because since there has been so much flooding, the lake had risen up so far up the property to where you really couldn’t find the path. But there is plenty of other places to fish and enjoy the water. Nolan Dam is cool. The house is very very well stocked with everything from dog toys, kids toys. Games, kitchen appliances and the kitchen is more stocked than any Airbnb I’ve ever been to. Beautiful views from the awesome decks and patio! Cell service is sketchy so I would advise you to have all your information on getting into the house without having to log into the VRBO app. We had issues with the WiFi but after contacting the host and resetting the router, it was great! The host is very accommodating and is quick to respond to calls or messages!

Family Get Away

This was a perfect spot for our multi-generational family. We ranged in age from 2 to 70 and everyone had a great time. We all enjoyed the game room and the outside spaces. The trail to the lake was a little difficult for us older folk, but we all made it and enjoyed the view from the shore! A couple of the adults took out a canoe and loved it. The kitchen was very well stocked with all we needed to cook all of our meals. Lots of towels came in handy. We all hope to visit again soon - especially to enjoy the lake and local attractions.

Great short time vacation

We had a great family time for 3 days at this house. Plenty of rooms on 3 levels, good space for family with little kids and seniors as well. Spectacular and calming view of the lake from front porch. A little inconvenient that you have to drive 18 min to public beach and 25 min to the marina, however we did both trips. I would not recommend to spend driving time for beach , rather spend the time on the boat (rent advance!) .One of the good points that you allowed to bring a couple of dogs!

Quiet Kentucky home

The Bee Spring Cottage we stayed at was very tidy, comfortable, well stocked and perfect for our large 7 person family. The property was in a quiet friendly neighborhood. Home was very pet friendly for our large dog. I would happily recommend this rental to family and friends. My kids are already asking to visit again. It was roughly a 40 min drive to Mammoth caves, and 20 min from Nolin State park and Dam. So many beautiful and historic destinations can be accessed from this rental. We really enjoyed staying here! And the hosts were so quick to communicate. 10 out of 10 stars!

Lake weekend

Great lake house! Friends and I enjoyed the multiple porches, hot tub, proximity to Mammoth Cave, as well as rented a boat nearby on Nolin Lake for the day. The house had a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of linens and room for all of us. We did not bring the kiddos or pets but the property would've accommodated both with toys/games/DVDs available, a dog door and mini dog yard. Some carpenter bees making home on the upperdeck posts, but otherwise pest-free. Could also use some new seating around the firepit.

Lake House property

Overall nice house, great location. Listing details somewhat mis-leading as the house is not truly lakefront. The biggest disappointment however was the lack of working hot tub. We were never able to use it during our entire stay and a hot tub was among the top 3-criteria when searching for a rental. Very Very disappointing!

Nice lake house

We had an issue with checking in. The housekeeper was running late and pushed back our check in while part of our group was already there. This was resolved by the fantastic host, but it is an inconvenience and something to be aware of. There were a few other minor issues, but for the most part the house was great and as advertised. The views from the deck are superb and the hot tub is adequate.

Great house and amenities

The house was absolutely wonderful. The sleeping arrangements were as described and the owners had everything you might need. The hot tub and fire pit were awesome to have and use. I do feel it’s important to know that there is absolutely no water access to renters. There is a dock that owners can use, but there is signage that does not allow renters to even walk on the dock, swim off of or put a canoe or kayak in. It was hard for us with young kids to not allow them to walk out there or get in the water even though no one was around. For this reason, we would not stay again despite the great house and accommodations.

Great Family Getaway

This was a great place for a big family getaway. The house was neat and clean and had plenty of room for our 7 adults, 2 kids and 4 dogs. The fenced yard and doggie door were especially awesome, as was the hot tub. The 2 decks on the house were great, we only wished that the main level one had more lighting so that we could all sit outside and play games together in the evenings, and it would have been nice if one of the decks had been screened in, there were a lot of mosquitos in the mornings and evenings. There was an issue with the wifi not working. After a bit of troubleshooting with the host, she suggested we contact the internet provider and troubleshoot with them, but none of us wanted to spend our vacation time doing that so we just did without, which was fine. Overall we loved the place and had a great time, would totally recommend!

Enough room for family and pets

We enjoyed spending our “quaran-cation”, safe from the public in this beautiful home! We were thrilled to find a fenced in area for our dogs to use and the fully stocked kitchen for cooking all of our meals. There was plenty of room for all 8 of us to spread out and have our own space, and plenty of activities on site for all ages. However it was disappointing to be right on the lake but unable to access it without driving 10 min to the dam or beach (we were given strict rules to stay off the dock, which takes up the entire lake access area, making it impossible to fish or even load in a kayak - our main goals of our trip). The listing did not disclose that we would not have lake access. Unfortunately the housekeeper also seemed to have failed to show before our stay, leaving us with trash laying around, toys in the hot tub, a full dishwasher and dryer, old birthday cake in the refrigerator, and dirty bedding. For the price paid, the home could use some repairs (several holes in doors, coffee table looked chewed by an animal, broken tiles, etc.)
