Family Summer Vacation
My Son and his family work at the camp next door so this house is perfect for our family vacation. The Boat dock is perfect for our boat. I fish in the morning and the family goes boating in the afternoon. The house is also perfect. My Daughter and her family use the up stairs and my wife and I stay in the bedroom on the main floor. We do not use the basement but as the grandkids get older we might start using it. The bugs are bad around the lake so in the summer time we do not use the patio much but we have used it in the fall on past visits. This house is a good choice for family vacations. The fish cleaning table really got used this year and the outdoor cooking area it a good place to fry fish. Thank you for use of your house!

We love this area of KY Lake! The location was perfect for us to come off the lake and eat at Belews & Dinner Bell both 5 min away! Boat dock was very nice. House was very cozy & comfortable for our family. We definitely want to book it again.

Rental review
We had a great time but were an older family group that found the steps and stairs a bit hard to manage and there seemed to be a shortage of electrical outlets. The outside was a bit neglected compared to the neighborhood. But there was nothing we couldn’t handle.

Over all a good place, just need some fine tuning. Air conditioner upstairs needs a real good cleaning out.Both were discussing and that’s the air we were breathing. Need a better walk way to the dock, it’s very easy to trip going down. No walkway of any kind. This would be to the next level if someone would just take some time to clean it up some.

Couldn't have asked for a better vacation
This was an adorable property on the lake at the end of a road, so no traffic. The house was fully equipped (the kitchen better equipped than my own)! There was plenty of room for our family of six. The lake was beautiful and the swimming was great. Perfect water temperature and we were surprised at the minimal boating taking place. We expected a lot more boat traffic. The house had a bag set that we enjoyed each evening, along with the firepit and back patio with beautiful views of the sunset. The back patio was large and covered and we were all able to relax there and grill when we needed shade or cover. We honestly didn't want to leave! The owners were extremely responsive and easy to communicate.

The perfect private home & dock for us
We had 2 adults and 4 teens, so this property fit us well. Just 4 nights. The cove is perfect for kayaking, tubing and knee boarding. Dollar General was 10 minutes away in either direction for any needs. Good restaurants we dined at was Los Amigos & Belew's Dairy Bar (a must for shake lovers, we went twice!) Land between the Lakes is close, we drove thru the Bison reserve, fun to see those. All is all this quick getaway is just what we needed to unplug and relax. Only complaint I heard was a couple of the upstairs bed were a bit hard. I would recommend bringing a couple extra mattress foams if using all upstairs beds. The house was clean and stocked with all kitchen utensils and soaps. We were only in it to eat and sleep. We spent most of our days on the water. Not a lot of boat traffic in that cove which was ideal. The deep fishing was not great for my husband that weekend. A few drum & gar. Teens had more luck just dropping a line off the dock. The decor in the house is a bit dated, but it reminded me of my grandma's, felt homey and comfortable.

Perfect for our annual family fishing tirp
We've been visiting Kentucky Lake for several years, and with our family expanding, we decided to book a larger home to accomodate us this year. This property was percet for us. Some of the things we loved: -Very well stocked. Everything from firewood, pots & pans, trash bags, laundry/dish detergent, toilet paper, tin foil, zip lock bags, utensils, etc. We were really pleased with how little we had to obtain from the store when we arrived. -The private, covered dock fit our fishing boat perfectly. There is even an cabinet on the dock to store your lifejackets, fishing poles, supplies, etc. Really convenient! -The beds were more comfortable than we antiicipated! -We had filled up both trash bins before the scheduled pick up date, and the owners made arrangements to have that picked up for us very promptly. -The house is stocked with several games, including cards and a bags set! -Kentucky can get steamy mid-July, but the back yard is very well shaded and has beautiful views. -Perfect for fishing, swiming, or any water activities! A few things to consider: -We would have loved to have a large outdoor table on the patio to eat at. Bring a few folding tables if you're considering booking and spending a lot of time outside. The patio is large enough to accomodate it. -Not all of the bedroom doors lock in the home, including a very tricky bathroom door lock. -The bathroom toilet on the upstairs level is not made for tall humans. If you're over 6 ft, it will feel like it was made for a potty training a toddler. -The family room couch has seen better days, and is falling apart at the seams. We didn't have to worry about this too much, since the majority of our time was spent outside. Our biggest concern from this property was that there is not a handrail down the steps leading out to the porch. It's very hazardous, and my father in law took a bad tumble down them. In the future we would like to see one placed there for safety reasons. My guess is that it is very close to Kentucky's building code for handrails. All in all, this home gave us everything we needed and wanted for our trip, and are really appreciative to the owners for being so accomodating and welcoming. We hope to be back!

Kentucky Lakes Vacation Home
The property is covered with huge oak trees so the back of the house all the way to the covered dock is shaded almost all day. Combine this with a breeze that blew all but one day during our stay, and the back patio overlooking the lake was a great place to the afternoon and evenings, when we weren’t on the lake. The house was spacious with a screened porch, a new kitchen and comfortable beds with plenty of sleeping room for kids. The location of the house is close to marinas, boat ramps, restaurants and activities. I give this property 4 1/2 stars overall.

Beware of bedbugs
The house was nice but after a few days of random bites showing up on our bodies- we discovered a massive infestation of bedbugs. We immediately packed up and called the owner who was very responsive and called Terminex immediately. Unfortunately we were stuck driving 4 hours to a family home with a 1 year old past bedtime only to spend the entire next day cleaning everything we own and praying we don’t bring any bugs home with us. We did receive a full refund but the extra time, ruined experience and cost of deep cleaning our belongings is enough to make me never book a VRBO again.

Great family vacation spot
We had an amazing time at the Kelly’s this week. Our group of seven (four adults and three kids) had plenty of room to spread out. The house had everything we needed and more. The listing and pictures are accurate. The view is spectacular and the house is close to nearby attractions. We didn’t drive more than a half an hour to anything. This was my first VRBO experience. Would definitely do it again! We are leaving today, and we are all sad to go!

We all had a great. The location on the lake was one of the best. We loved having a private dock for our boats and the kIds loved swimming off of it. They were even able to fish off of it. There were plenty of beds for all. The kids even switched it up a few nights. Beautiful vies out the window to the lake. We all agreed it is a place to return to.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy and Mike Kelly

Host profile image
Mike is a financial services representative and Nancy is a registered nurse. We love the lakes area. We have 3 daughters and 6 grandchildren and they all love water sports and nature. Our home has been a great place to spend some time together. We have been renting our homes to travelers for over 25 years.

Why they chose this property

We have been visiting the Lakes area for over 30 years. This is our second home on Kentucky Lake. We love the area because it is quiet with great fishing. We can just sit on the patio and watch the sun set or Great Blue Herons land or our dock. It has year around water at the dock.

What makes this property unique

Our home is close to the Land Beteen the Lakes Recreation Area. You can golf at Kentucky Dam State Park or at Boots Randolf Golf Course in Barkely Dam State Park. We are on a quiet part of the lake and a quiet neighborhood. We have the best location for sunsets. We are thrilled with our new remodeled kitchen, upgraded floors and carpet.
