Cabin/Vacation Home In the Woods on Private Lake Close to Louisville, Ky

Welcome to Little Cedar Lodge, our little slice of heaven, near the town of Elizabeth, Indiana. Enjoy the peace and solitude overlooking the quiet private lake, only 5 minutes from Caesars Casino, and ten minutes from the Sporting Club at The Farm or Chariot Run Golf Club. Best Vineyards is 2 miles down the road. Downtown Corydon is 17 minutes away where many caves and hiking trails are available. We are just 20 miles from downtown Louisville with all its activities and nightlife. Great getaway for two, or for your entire family.

Enhanced cleaning and disinfecting procedures in place gleaned from publicly available information from WHO and CDC and recommended by the booking platform.

Enjoy the view and peace and quiet of this cabin in the woods overlooking a private 125-acre lake. Watch for the many varieties of wildlife including the bald eagle, ducks, geese, herons, eagles, osprey, deer, turkey, beaver, and others. No highway noise, and very seldom ever even hear an airplane. No boats or jet skis whizzing up and down the lake either, the lake is wake speed only. Even with all that you are only 20 miles from downtown Louisville. Only 5 minutes from Caesars Southern Indiana Casino. Even if you don't gamble they have several dining choices from casual to fine dining.

Enjoy your morning coffee on the large screened-in deck overlooking the lake. There are two private bedrooms with queen beds, a large loft with 3 full beds, and one twin bed. The family room and kitchen area are open to the roofline, and the loft railing overlooks the downstairs. When you're not outside you can enjoy the Smart TV in the family room, internet and WIFI, along with Netflix and Hulu. We provided a slew of games and cards and poker chips. Family gatherings are okay, but no parties or large groups with booze please (ie bachelor parties, etc).

We have sought to equip our home to a high standard and to anticipate your needs by providing all the things you might want for a luxurious and relaxing stay. Internet, WiFi, TV, hairdryers, iron, ironing board, coffee maker, towels, and common toiletries are provided as standard and a washing machine and dryer are available. You may not swim, fish, boat, or get on the dock as association rules require an owner to be on-site for lake use. There will be a $250 fine/fee if a guest or anyone in the guest's party is caught swimming, fishing, or boating in the lake and you agree if anyone in your party breaks this rule you may be asked to leave. Be advised there is a camera overlooking the lake.

Basic rates include up to two persons. There is an extra $15 charge per person over two per night.

No extra charge for children 3 years or younger (NOTE: Do not enter children under 3 in the children box or the platform will charge you the extra $15 per person. Just tell us the ages of your children in a text message)

Pets are allowed, $15 per night extra charge, must be on a leash at all times when outdoors, must be crated if left unattended, not allowed on furniture, must be potty trained. Clean up after your pet and place it in the lined trash can under the deck (plastic bags can be found in the closet under the stairs). Trash pick-up days are Wednesdays.
No unsafe activities please as we have neighbors on both sides (no discharge of firearms, shooting bows and arrows, fireworks, etc).

We love "our" house on the lake!
I think this was our fourth stay at Cedar Lodge.....and we love coming back to it. It's our first choice when we are in the area and need a place to stay. We were in town for a family wedding. My husband, our three adult kids and one significant other all stayed a various number of days. The cabin was clean, has everything we needed, close to family and the venue and in a beautiful location. Very peaceful and beautiful. Owners are very responsive to any concerns or questions. Power went out while we were there (storm?) I contacted Susan, who did a quick check on what was going on with the power outage (24K out?) and kept us updated on the progress. Power was back on fairly quickly and our weekend proceeded without a problem. We love this house and will be back whenever it is available and we are in the area. It really is starting to feel like "our" cabin! Thank you!

Disconnect close to the big city…
Absolutely amazing cabin close to Louisville but secluded enough to fill like you are far away from the hustle and bustle! From the sunrise on the water to the twinkle of twilight in the evening the cabin is situated perfectly next to the lake. This is a great place to rest and relax!

Nice quiet Cabin on the Lake
The cabin was nice, could use some additional dusting and pest control. It is in a wooded area, so bugs will always be a concern. Know before you book, you do not have permissions to use lake. That is unfortunate. Basic Kitchen supplies and more available.

Comfortable Cabin Escape
We took a short four day trip down to Southern Indiana/Louisville. The drive up to the cabin is picturesque and the view from the screen porch is stellar. The beds and rooms were very comfortable and we played several games both in the living room and out on the porch. The hosts were very communicative and proactive to make sure you were able to find the property. Wifi was strong and fast which was great since we lost cell service. We stopped at the local general store in Elizabeth to get some deli sandwiches, the store had several basic goods if you arrive late and just need something quick. Highly recommend staying here!

Another Great Stay!
I think this is our third time at this cabin-I grew up in the area and it is very convenient to stay here when visiting family. Ron and Susan are very responsive to questions. Cabin was clean and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen. No dishwasher is sad, but wasn't a huge issue. Two of our adult kids stayed for one night while we were here and really liked the cabin. Thanks for another great stay! We will be back!

We spent the majority of our time on the porch. We used the cabin as our base of operations and explored Indiana. When we were at the cabin, that porch was phenomenal! We did everything there: ate, gamed, drank coffee, and fellowshipped.

Fall break getaway
My family - 2 adults and 4 kids - had a great stay at this property. There was plenty of space and everything we needed for a two night getaway. We were in a reasonable driving distance to Huber Orchard and for activities in Louisville. Enjoyed being by the water and the nature setting was a perfect escape. Highly recommend!

A little touch of heaven, peace and quiet
Everything was just amazing. From the drive to the morning visits from the Canadian geese. So peaceful, quiet, and just plain comfort. The cabin has everything you'll need for your stay. We arrived late, hardly any place was open. So I was thrilled to find not only coffee, but creamer as well. Which I enjoyed every morning on the screened in porch, watching the hummingbirds come and go. We were on our way to a wedding in Illinois, which I would've gladly skipped to stay here longer ! If you're driving at night, watch out for the many deer that graze along the roadway after dark. Listening to the owls at night was pretty cool too. Overall, 5 stars, wish I could score it higher ! Thank you Susan for making our trip one of our best !!

Beautiful cabin in a peaceful setting. We especially enjoyed the fire pit and screen porch. Everything we needed was provided. The nightly flyover of geese and a visit by possums added to our experience. I highly recommend this quiet location.

We stayed here last year and loved it so much we wanted to stay here again. My favorite part of the home is the patio, which is wonderful for morning Scripture reading and evening relaxation. It also had a new swinging couch addition. We definitely want to return.
