New Lakefront LUX Retreat FullyLoaded Private Dock
We’ll be coming back! The place is stocked with everything you would need to feel cozy + at home. We spent so much time on the water and curled up with books on the patio. Air bnbs rarely have throw blankets, and we really appreciated having those! Thank you so much!

Beautiful Blue Lake House-8 Miles to Ark Encounter
Debra’s place was beautiful. The lake was a bonus!

Bass Fisherman’s Cottage on Wood Creek Lake
The cottage was exactly as described and felt cozy and comfortable as if we were at home. The surroundings were clean, beautiful and peaceful. Will definitely be staying here again at some point.

New- Lakefront w/ Dock- Hot tub-7 miles to Ark
My friends and I had a wonderful stay here! The house was beautiful, clean, and exactly as described in the listing. We were able to have a cozy galentine's day get together with plenty of space and a delightful location. Brad and Meg were quick to respond and happy to accommodate anything I needed, which was so helpful. We're already talking about booking again when the weather is warm- we love it here! 5 stars, no notes for this stay :)

The Rock House (lakefront with private dock)
Peaceful location and very nice little A frame house. Great view and exactly the get away we were hoping for. We have shared and recommended to others, would be ideal for a single family or a pair of couples looking for a rural retreat.

Water view, beside Boat Ramp with Game Room!
David was a great host. The house was great and it was extremely nice and comfortable. The back porch was nice. We will definitely will be staying again if we have to come back for work. Thanks again for everything.

Beautiful Waterfront, w/ Dock, Firepit, Hot tub
Kelly’s place was AWESOME. We came during the “great flood of 2025” and still had a great time. The place is very spacious and easily fit 12 people. The house was clean and very welcoming. Kelly was super responsive and gave us great local recommendations which was so helpful. Felt like a little retreat and we highly recommend this little piece of paradise! You won’t regret booking this Airbnb.

Beautiful 3 BR Lakefront Home with Private Dock
This home was PERFECT for a short getaway with my son for Spring Break. The property was serene and private and accommodations inside were BETTER than the photos. Lots of modern amenities made our stay comfortable and truly enjoyable.

Grace Land
It’s clean and comfortable. The little extras like coffee and a shower stocked with soap and shampoo make all the difference. Makes traveling easy.

Eagles Nest
Eric’s place is stunning! It’s in such a beautiful and peaceful setting!

Funky Little Shack at Grand Rivers
It was a sweet, peaceful get away!

peaceful private suite in the middle of Etown 102
The place is in great location. And quiet

Mermaid Cottage
I was in town staying with family and it’s located next door. It made the trip so special and the opportunity to catch up on some much needed sleep. Comfortable and quiet which is exactly what I was looking for that week! So was so patient even when I had fallen asleep and blocked her driveway. This was the first stay of hopefully many to come!

The Grand Escape - Central Kentucky Vacation Stay
Our plans were almost canceled due to water damage at another Airbnb but were saved thanks to a last minute pivot and very prompt response from Chris. It wasn’t what we were planning originally but we enjoyed our stay here so much more than we would have with the other place. It was a great location and we were able to go on a very nice hike which was our favorite part of the trip. The space was super clean and we felt right at home right away! Chris was super responsive very quickly for our entire stay and made things a lot easier for us. We would highly recommend a stay here and would love to come back ourselves.

Hey Bear! Spacious Condo KY Lake
This condo exceeded our expectations. It was very clean and had everything we needed plus more. You can’t beat the location and view. Beds were very comfortable. Loved having access to the garage, most condos we’ve stayed in keep the garage locked. Made unloading so much easier and gave us a place to sit outside without being in the sun. Mason was a great host and made us feel at home the moment we walked in. We absolutely will stay here again!!

Anna’s Place
The place was so clean and felt like home. There were a few snacks left on the counter and a few waters in the fridge. The owner was very quick to answer back when we had a question. We liked it so much that we stayed until check out time and had to leave. Will definitely rent again when I come back.

River House - Cottage with KY River View & Access
Great place for a quiet retreat. Simply beautiful with gorgeous views and light. Perfect place to spend time with a friend or loved one. Clean and fit description.

Paradise Cottage Enjoy lake Views and Lake Access!
Tonya's home was a perfect place for my family to stay while in Ky for a wedding. There was space for everyone and the home had everything we needed.

Private guest house with lakefront views
This was our second stay with Liz. We felt right at home when we walked in. Everything was super comfortable and loved all the afghans. It was so peaceful. Enjoyed coffee on the deck and listening to all the song birds.

Get Away From It All
We had a wonderful time staying at Jared’s cottage! Felt right at home! There was an issue with the hot tub but he had someone come out right then and there to take care of the issue. Very responsive and flexible!

Lake Front w/ PooL! Between Ark & Creation Museum.
Tonya was an AMAZING host! Her place is just as described, and she was extremely friendly, helpful and thoughtful. We stayed in early April right after it had been raining heavily for a few days, so sadly we weren't able to enjoy all the amenities she had to offer as much as we wanted, plus the pool wasn't open yet. The first day we arrived; we did go on the kayaks for a bit, but it was short lived because it was too cold, the second day was super windy and colder than we had expected, which prevented us from being able to do much outside, (but we ended up visiting the Creation Museum that day anyways, and then the ARK the following morning; both were 5 stars!) but unfortunately we had to cut our trip short, so i paid for 3 nights and ended up only staying 2, and couldn't really enjoy the added amenities due to weather while we were there, so I wouldn't give the experience 5 stars, but I do give Tonya and her place 5 stars b/c everything was exactly as described. :) Thank You Tonya

Lake Livin' & Bourbon Sippin'
Great accommodations!

Stylish Bluegrass Cottage 7 min to Ark - Fire Pit!
Adorable very clean home. Beds were very comfortable. I love how everything was decorated. They have shampoo and conditioner and body soap there for you in case you forget some. Liked walking through the backyard to go walk around the lake. Nice sitting area around a little campfire in the backyard. Definitely would stay again if we were in the area!

Lake Refuge near Louisville & Bourbon Trail #52
We enjoyed our stay at Matt's place, very clean, Matt is very responsive, he always responded to my messages in less than an hour. Perfect place to stay while visiting the bourbon trail.
