Wedding stay

We had a wonderful time gathering as a family at this property. It offered all the amenities that were necessary and advertised. Close to where we needed to be and a beautiful quiet location. We, as a family, got to totally enjoy each other with the time we had. It was sweet!

Short stay in Eddieville

My wife and I had a nice stay at the Barefoot Resort. Really like the area. The 2nd bedroom could use a better mattress for a adult but fine for kids. Nice affordable place to stay!

Our getaway

Our mini getaway was great. We had such a great time in eddyville at Sandy’s retreat. We were all able to chill and relax and spend quality time with family. We went to Kuttawa beach and also spent all day at Venture river water park. The house was in a good neighborhood and was big enough for our family. It’s very cozy and beautiful and I recommend this place for anyone. Also the house is fully equipped and had just about everything we needed. The owners are also very friendly, if I had a question she answered it very quickly. We will be staying here again one day for a adult trip.

Just okay, much room for easy improvements

Let me start by saying this property has great potential, and with some restocking, repairs, and some heavy-duty cleaning, it could be much improved. The washing machine would not agitate (no guarantee sheets and towels weren't washed in this non-functioning machine prior to our stay), and the outdoor grill was horrid, we refused to cook on it. We notified the hosts of both issues during our stay, and supposedly washing machine and grill will be replaced or repaired upon our departure. Either the furnace/AC filter needs to be changed, or the heating/cooling unit itself needs a deep cleaning, as there was a layer of dust/dirt on the vents and on the louvered door in front of the unit (I attempted to vacuum off, but no vacuum attachments could be found). If dust/grime on horizontal surfaces such as lightbulbs, mini blinds, baseboards, cabinet tops, etc. is a turnoff, this is not the place for you. I've never seen such rusty cooktop drip pans. The kitchen linens (1 dishcloth for the week, and a black bleach-stained towel) were lacking. 3 table knives in the drawer (there were 4 of us, and advertised to sleep 8), there were 2 steak knives. I came across a paint scraper razor blade in the top of the kitchen sink garbage disposal that almost got chopped up. The kitchen sink needs new drain stoppers, there is not one for the garbage disposal side, and the other side is just worn out. There was only 1 hand towel for the week in each bathroom (there were good number of wash cloths and bath towels). Only 1 of 3 lightbulbs was working above the master bathroom sink (we did find 1 spare bulb in a kitchen drawer, so replaced 1). The bed pillows really need to be replaced, they are old, stained and flat. Toaster should be replaced as the cancel button does not work, and it only toasts on 1 side. On the positive side, the house is in a great location, with lots of living space, and communication was frequent, yet not intrusive. We really did try to not complain too much, despite being disappointed; and we attempted to leave it cleaner than when we arrived - we washed almost all of the dishes in the dishwasher (that I cleaned out the interior of, with the dishwasher detergent we had to purchase), and we wiped down cabinet interiors. I mention again that this rental has potential, and perhaps it will be improved for future guests. Unfortunately, we were not impressed.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because it is bigger and centrally located to the lakes. We wanted to provide a lake experience that people can afford.

We do not have any infant stuff available at this time, they are welcome.

We provide all the essentials to make you feel at home. We are committed to your vacation or time here being a pleasurable one. We have wifi, but hope the kids see the beauty of the outside and near by attractions. We love this area, and believe you will to.
