LOG Cabin, 5 miles from town, but very country setting

This cute log cabin was built by my grandparents about 35 years ago. The cabin is a little over 5 miles from downtown Somerset, and about 30 minutes from the lake. Play golf up the road at Eagle's Nest Country Club if you don't want to go to the lake, or play a round before the monthly car show. The road is a residential road, with little traffic. Area is very quite, and gets dark, but night time is a great for a time to gather around the fire pit in the back yard. There is enough room in the front to park several cars, and enough room to park the boat when you pull it out of the water.

House also has a pack-n-play in the master closet.

House includes a charcoal grill. Fire wood for the fire pit can be purchased locally if there is none in the back yard.

The master bedroom has a queen bed with ample room, sleeps 2, as well as a futon, sleeping 2.
The second bedroom has a bunk bed with a twin on top and a full on the bottom, sleeping 3.

Laundry facilities are also in the bathroom.

House does have internet, as well as a roku with YouTube TV in the livingroom. As well as a firestick with YouTubeTV in the master bedroom.

No smoking is allowed in the house. However, there is an ash tray provided on the front and back porch.


Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a water park or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Old But Clean & Peaceful
PROS: Full of character & charm. The property is exactly as listed. Great value for families. Well equipped with all the amenities for a stay with families. CONS: Furnishings are dated & well used, carpet very stained & well worn (I’m sure it’s clean but because the carpent is so worn and has several stains, it feels dirty,)

The best family getaway
We had the best time staying at Grandma's Peace. You are far enough away from the town to enjoy the peace and quiet but close enough to get anything you need. We were basically just at the house to shower and sleep. It seemed to have any kitchen amenities you would need. There was plenty of toys/books and board ganes for the kids. Putaide thereare bokes and a scooter to ride. The outside looked very relaxing but the mosquitoes were terrible and we had a newborn with is so I didn'tget to enjoy it with the family. The futon bed in the master bedroom was perfect for middle of the night feeds without waking anyone else. Our only complaint is the water pressure isn't great but you cam have that anywhere. The sweet neighbor dogs came over to play and our 1 year old loved them. She kept calling him Big Dog.

Perfect weekend getaway
We absolutely loved the home. We were amazed that this beautiful home was built by the grandparents. I enjoyed the digital pictures and knowing the history of the family. It was so beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing. The location was perfect. Aaron was so amazing and accommodating. We travel a lot but this has been our favorite home by far. We will definitely stay at this location again. My whole family gives it a 5 star.

The cabin n is a little worn but was definitely worth the stay. We had a deer come up right beside the deck and tons of beautiful birds and wildlife.

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was a beautiful area of Kentucky and a cute cabin but there was a ton of mouse droppings all over the kitchen counters, inside cabinets and on pans. Therefore we didn't use the kitchen at all. There was also a pretty big pile of old sofas/garbage on the side of the house. Although we loved the history of the cabin and surrounding area we are glad we only needed to spend one night there.

Sweet Stay at Grandmas Peace
We really enjoyed our stay this past weekend. We hauled a vehicle for the cruise in and had plenty of room for the truck and trailer. Our ONLY negative was that the carpet was a bit worn in places, but the place was so clean and comfortable. Thanks for a great stay!

Nice cabin
It was a nice cabin overall. The carpet was torn in some places as well as worn and well used, and some other cosmetic issues, but it did not detract from my enjoying myself in the peace and quiet. I did sit outside for some time and took it easy on the wooden bench, it was nice watching the wildlife.

Kentucky stay
Easy to get to town. Was disappointed in the paranormal museum. Was more like a big foot museum. Cute old downtown area. Beautiful area for summertime with lots of trees and trails not as much to do in the spring. Overall a nice relaxing place to stay.

Such a great little cozy cabin. It has all the necessities needed for a comfortable stay without all the high end items (especially with younger kiddos). This is the second time we have stayed and would love to come back again.

LOVE this cabin! Location is PERFECT. Quiet, peaceful, and pet friendly. Owner is pleasant and we learned a lot about Somerset. Wi-if worked wonderfully for the TV streaming. The backyard has a great string of lights to sit out and enjoy the porch or fire pit. Best week ever!
