We had a great family vacation.
Beautiful spacious home with everything you need for a week of relaxing or adventuring. Home was very clean and comfortable! Owner was very accommodating and answered all my stupid questions. The only thing that would have made it better would have been a better view of the lake. (We knew we weren’t water front and it was worth giving up a lake front house for one this nice). The public launch ramp was right down the road, so we spent a lot of time on the lake. We saw so many waterfalls and wildlife. Such a beautiful area! We appreciated the little things like labeling the light switches. Maybe ceiling fan instructions for next time🤣.

Awesome option on Lake Cumberland
This property was fantastic.Booked for family visit off-season just outside Somerset and visited them often over the long weekend.Beautiful large open home with all amenities. Best temp or vacation rental I've ever booked. Hosts provided great details on check in / out and surrounding details. We loved this place so much. Wish this was my my home! And price versus a hotel for what they offer, kitchen, laundry, multiple bedrooms, privacy you can't beat it for family time in a vacation. Stay here!

Fishing get away
The house was great. Super nice and clean. All the light switches were labeled which is nice in a house you’re not used to. For what we were doing it had a bench style bed which comfortable but would have rather had 2 beds in that room. Would differently rent this place again if it’s available next year for our trip.
