The location is beautiful, not too hard to get to but very peaceful and quiet, at least at this time of year (late fall). We were able to go to multiple good hikes within close distance which was awesome! We spent a lot of time on the porch looking out at the view. The fully stocked kitchen was a huge plus. Only thing to be aware of was not to forget your coffee or filters, which was definitely on us. This place was great!

About the host

Hosted by Kim

Host profile image
My husband and I decided to retire in beautiful McCreary County, KY after 30 years in the business world for him and 30 years of teaching for me. We love the outdoors… no better playground! We love trail riding with our 5 horses, boating, hiking, SxS riding, and all things outdoors. We are living life to the fullest and hoping others can do the same, through our rentals in the area!

Why they chose this property

The Cumberland Lake Cottage is especially special to us! We love the lake access and all the other outdoor adventures this location has to offer. It’s close to hiking and SxS trails. The tranquil setting in the woods makes a great place to relax and recharge. Seasonal views of the lake from the deck are spectacular! Love the wrap around deck and outdoor living space. The cottage itself is bright, cheerful, and comfortable. What a great place to just kick back and enjoy!!

What makes this property unique

The proximity to the lake is definitely a stand out feature of the Lake Cumberland Cottage. In addition to that, the wrap around deck, firepit, and outdoor living is a treat for those that love the outdoors. Inside, the cottage is clean, comfortable, bright and airy. This is the perfect home away from home.
