This home does have lake access.
This is the perfect place to enjoy a quiet getaway without the busyness of the city! In case you forget something, there are several local mini markets (Webb’s and Sailings) close by and a Dollar General Market about 10 minutes (5 miles) away. One of the local Amish stores has amazing donuts on Saturday mornings and a Walmart is just 30 minutes away in Leitchfield.
Please be advised the US Corps of Engineers own Nolin Lake and is used for flood control. Lake access is best during the summer as the Corps lowers the lake (25 to 30 feet) starting late October. Due to flood control aspects of the lake, the walk up and down to the water is steep, and some guests might find it difficult. Winter pool is 25-30 feet below summer pool. Which makes the lake inaccessible during winter months. During rainy seasons the lake has been known to go 25 ft above summer pool. Also making the lake hard to access. We try very hard to keep the access to the lake available but sometimes the levels change drastically and are hard to keep up. We do the best we can. The water levels can be checked at the Nolin River website.
Owners reside next door and the property has exterior security cameras.
Two dogs (under 50 pounds each) are allowed for a pet fee of $75/trip. Please be sure to add them to your reservation prior to checking out.

About the host
Hosted by Joe & Corlynn R.
We have been on Nolin Lake for over 20 years and have made countless memories with family and friends. Sharing our lake home with family and friends is one of our favorite things. Together we enjoy hosting all those who come through our doors. We hope you and your family and friends will make memories here, as some of our favorite memories are at the lake.
We reside at the home next door, lovingly named The Camp by our children and now a grandchild. Throughout your stay, we will be available for questions, including recommendations if you wish.
