The cabin offered plenty of space for iur family of five and two dogs to spread out. The hot tub was clean and well-maintained. This would be a great rental for families or people traveling with pets. There were a few areas that appeared to be in the process of being repaired, but they did not impact our stay.
Calvin was great. Very responsive and happy to assist. Cabin was nice and clean. TV and theater style couch was wonderful. Beds were comfortable.Loved the view and hot tub was relaxing. Grill was clean and easy to use. Water pressure was good. Did not use fireplace or out door fire pit but both looked nice. Plenty of seating.

It was great we had nice time the cabin was fine but definitely need some tender loving care
Took a little road trip to KY for our family vacation this year. They place is amazing. So spacious, very clean, communication with owner was great. I would say we will definitely rebook!
We had an awsome time, very secluded and private, Calvin was awsome, we didn't get in until late in the evening..he stayed awake to make sure we made it safe...the cabin has everything you need for a relaxing getaway in the mountains.
Cozy cabin that had everything we needed for a family with 4 adults, 1 child and 2 dogs
Property manager was very warm and attentive to any questions or things we needed. We will definitely be staying again for our next visit to lake Cumberland
We had a wonderful time at the cabin. The area is scenic, the hot tub was amazing, it was hot and running upon our arrival. The check in and check out process was easygoing.

Glad to hear that you had a great weekend at the cabin! Thanks for visiting and come visit again!
A very lovely and spacious cabin with amazing views. Tho fact that it was a gated community and also secluded was refreshing. The soaks in the hot tub was what we came for but, the memories we took with us was definitely the best part of the entire experience.
The property was perfect for our stay and everyone had their own space for sleeping. Calvin was great to work with and property was just as described. We really enjoyed it !!!
The cabin was very nice. Calvin was the best property manager I’ve ever had when using VRBO. He would always reply back promptly and was very helpful during the process. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice Cabin at the Lake
We had a great time at Lake Cumberland and enjoyed staying in this spacious cabin at Lake Cumberland Resort! There was plenty of sleeping room and it was in a private location. The best parts were having coffee each morning on the covered patio, relaxing in the hot tub, and fishing on the boat ramp right at the resort. And the pizza and wings at the resort restaurant were amazing!

So glad you guys had a great visit! Looks like your week had plenty of activities- and relaxation. Come visit again next year and claim your $50 discount.
Calvin was very responsive and gave great info about the cabin and area. It’s private and quiet and the decks are wonderful. The hot tub was nice to relax in after a day on the lake. We had a pontoon and found it was too big to bring back to the cabin everyday. We paid a small fee to park it near the office and that worked great. The pool was great and just a short walk away. There were never more than one or two other people at any given time. We enjoyed it more than we thought. The area is beautiful and that part of the lake is very clean and quiet. We will definitely be back.
The property is just as described. We enjoyed having our morning coffee on the back deck watching the hummingbirds and all the other wildlife. The hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. Calvin is amazing also!
