Relaxing visit
This was the perfect opportunity for us to hang out while not being stuck on campus. Everybody was able to relax and Visit in such a peaceful setting. The ride to campus wasn’t very long Which made it a nice alternative to being in a hotel.
Condo was clean and very accommodating ! The view was incredible ! Host where very nice and made you feel right at home ! I would recommend staying here when staying at the lake . Had a awesome time will definitely stay there again !

Staff was wonderful, especially Ken and Kim. Coming there for years, at least 13yrs. Was clean but the couches in livingroom were very worn out and as a senior with arthritis in low back made it hard to sit in livingroom. Brought in a kitchen chair but that gets uncomfortable after time.
This was cabin 11 from 29Aug-02Sep. Overall a nice place

It's a nice place, but a little run down. Staff was nice. Everything is too crowded and not much privacy.. For a get away weekend It's ok.

Was a great mini vaca.... everyone was so nice and we had a great time.... bed was very hard but little cottage was clean and just right for me and my husband
Great place to stay. Out of the way, but not hard to find. Not fancy, but comfortable and we had everything we needed. There's a lot to do and and see even if you're not boating or fishing. Lovely place. We can't wait to go again!

Great Family Retreat
This was our second stay here. The first time was only my wife and I for our anniversary. We enjoyed it so much that we brought our children along. The location is quiet and secluded and the staff are all friendly, courteous, and helpful. The water on the cove is very calm with no wake issues. It's also shallow so it's easy for wading and beginning kayakers don't have to worry. The cabins have full kitchens and a nice complement of dishes, utensils, and cookware. The beds are comfortable. i prefer a little firmer but I'm a heavy guy so slimmer people should be very happy. Nevertheless, I slept well for three nights and didn't wake up with any pains. The grounds have plenty of chairs and patio furniture located throughout as well as firepits and firewood. We will definitely go back again.
The cabins were equipped with everything you need.

weekend getaway to Kentucky Lake 3/19 to 3/21
Kate was awesome. She upgraded our unit. Yes, we were here during the Covid19 period and most things were closed. We enjoyed hikes in LBL and Kentucky Dam. Our unit was cozy and clean. Everything we needed. Hope to bring kids and grandkids when season is warmer.

Great place, we unknowingly booked the smallest cabin on premise. It was clean slightly outdated, but nice. The staff, especially Ken goes above and beyond to make your stay great. The views of the lake/river are spectacular. Read your confirmation email, bring towel! We didn’t but they accomadated us! Great place we will be back! The pics were taken from another cabins deck.
