About this property

Lakefront home near Mammoth Cave

This home is perfect for your family gathering. Located on Nolin Lake in Brier creek, right off the main channel of the lake. Swimming, boating, fishing, paddle boarding, canoeing and kayaking are perfect activities here. Enjoy Wifi and 200+ channels including Netflix and Amazon prime video.

*Mammoth Cave is approximately 35 minute drive.
*There are golf courses, horseback riding, Amish shops and the state park beach/play area are within minutes of this home.

Please be advised Nolin Lake is owned by the US Corp of Engineers and is used for flood control. Lake access is best during the summer as the Corp lowers the lake (25 / 30 feet) starting late October. Due to the flood control aspect of the lake, the walk up and down to the water can be steep and some guest might find it difficult.

There is a boat ramp 1/4 mile away that you can launch and recover your boat very easily with parking at the ramp (parking can be limited on weekends).
Swimming is available off the shoreline, or at the boat ramp, or one of the nearby public beaches (Nolin Lake State Park).

This home is equipped with outdoor security cameras

This house was nice. Plenty of space for our family gathering. And the beds were comfy. We enjoyed the deck space & outdoor firepit. The owners were very responsive and added a nice touch with a Christmas tree in the living room. Only downside was that The neighborhood was a bit odd.

Everyone enjoyed the weekend. The house was exactly like the pictures. The only negative was the bed in the loft was full of dog hair. Other than that, everything else was great.

This was great place with a beautiful view of the lake! We got lucky with really nice October weather to use the lake but we were only able to use 2 of the kayaks due to only 2 paddles available and 2 of the kayaks had holes in them. It was a little more off the beaten path then we expected but no the less we really enjoyed it!

Nice house on the lake, 30-45 minutes from Mammoth cave visitors center(depends on who's driving). Lake is great for fishing, tubing etc. We had 6 adults 5 kids in our party plenty of room to spread out or gather at this property.

The property was as described and perfect for our stay. We were there for Spring Break and unfortunately experienced the historic flooding. But the house was a great base for nearby sightseeing and relaxing.

Great stay

We had a great extended family weekend - everything was as expected. Plenty of space indoors and outdoors to relax together. The dock was not accessible due to the high water level (we knew that the water level would be unknown until we got there), everything else was wonderful!

Our stay at this beautiful lakeside cabin was wonderful! The views were absolutely stunning, and the location—tucked away on a quiet street—made it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The home offered plenty of space for our group to spread out comfortably, and we really enjoyed the café just at the edge of the neighborhood - convenient and great food! A few small suggestions that would make an already great stay even better: adding a TV on the main level (a swivel-mounted one where the clock is above the kitchen table would work perfectly), including a few dish towels in the kitchen (if they were there, I didn't find the), checking the light in the left-side main-level bedroom (it flickers), and replacing the bulb at the rear entry on the deck. None of these detracted from our experience—it was a beautiful and peaceful getaway, and we would definitely return! Check-in was easy and descriptions accurate. For those not familiar with the area, it is a dry county so come prepared if you plan on a drink with dinner.

Thank you for your great review. We will address the issues with the light bulbs. As for the tv's, we try to keep the house somewhat disconnected from electronics. We enjoy all of our time there outside enjoying the view. And we hoping limiting tv's encourages our guest to as well.
