About this property

LUXURY Timber Lake Lodge - Nolin Mammoth Cave+View

Timber Lake Lodge is a stunning 6-bedroom timber-frame home on Nolin Lake, set within a completely private, gated 40-acre estate with a boat dock and no neighboring homes. Designed for both entertaining and serene relaxation, it features an open-concept kitchen, multiple living areas, large-group dining, breathtaking woodwork, a two-story cupola, indoor and outdoor stone fireplaces, and a covered deck and patio.

6 Bedrooms:
Primary: King bed with ensuite
Second Primary: King bed with ensuite
Upstairs 1: Queen bed sharing jack and jill bath
Upstairs 2: Queen bed sharing jack and jill bath
Bunkhouse: 2 sets of twin bunk beds and a trundle, plus a double size bunk bed, for a total of five twin beds and two full size beds.
Bunkhouse loft: Queen bed

There is a king bedroom with ensuite on the main floor, and a king bedroom and ensuite on the first floor. On the upper floor, two more queen bedrooms share a jack and jill bathroom. The wonderfully appointed bunk house sleeps 9+ and has an additional living area and kitchenette.

The wooded lakefront cabin is located on 40 acres at the end of a secluded and serene cove on Nolin Lake. It is the only home in the entire gated property, located just six miles from Wax Marina, and only nine miles from Mammoth Cave National Park.

The first floor includes a spacious open floor-plan great room with a stone gas fireplace that looks up into a two-story cupola. Plenty of comfortable sofas surround the fireplace sitting areas. A large dining table is situated close to the kitchen, and provides ample space for a large gathering

The granite countertop island is large enough for a sizable buffet, and has a five-burner gas cooktop and six barstools. The Chef's kitchen offers everything you will need, including a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, a stand-alone ice maker, pots and pans, coffee maker, prep and cooking utensils, serving platters and bowls, small appliances and pantry staples. The kitchen is stocked with dishes, silverware, and glassware for 24.

Down the hall from the great room, the first floor bedroom with king bed is situated to view the trees from the beautiful bay windows. A two-sink vanity and tiled walk-in shower, two closets, as well as a private entry to the covered deck await the guests that occupy this suite.

Just off the kitchen, a pantry with pull-out shelves, mudroom/laundry, and a half bath complete the first floor.

Up the stairs, with another impressive view of the estate, there are two Queen bedrooms with a jack and jill bathroom. The bathroom has a double-sink vanity that is separated from the bath/shower combo and toilet, giving privacy for multiple guests. A pack and play is available in the closet.

Let the fun begin downstairs with a pool table, wet bar with beverage refrigerator, large screen television and plenty of plush seating to watch a movie or the big game! Over 250 DVDs await movie buffs. Indoor time can be filled with the array of board games, cards and toys. A second full-size refrigerator is located in the storage area.

An additional king bedroom with the same footprint as the first floor bedroom is located down the hall from the basement living area. Here, another two-sink vanity, tiled shower and two closets, as well as a private entry to the covered patio await the guests of this suite.

Just steps away from the main home, a wonderfully appointed bunkhouse with two additional bedrooms, kitchenette with sink and beverage refrigerator, a full bathroom with shower/bath and living area can occupy additional guests, including all of the kids and teenagers. They will have a ping-pong table, full size arcade game with over 1,000 games, large screen television, sectional sofa and gaming chairs to immerse them at night or anytime they need a break from outdoor activities. The bunk room has three sets of bunk beds and a trundle, for a total of five twins and two full size. The upstairs loft bedroom has a queen size bed, and is perfect for adults that want to supervise and sleep in the same home as the children.

From the gorgeous interior, step outside to the IPE exotic hardwood constructed deck to enjoy nearly 750 square feet of covered porch with built-in outdoor stone fireplace, gas grill (we provide the propane), and outdoor dining table. Beautiful forested views surround you, and yet the gentle sloping path to your private dock on Nolin Lake is directly in front of the home. A swim ladder from the dock gives you access to the private cove, located directly across from a nature preserve, providing peace and quiet.

The entire home is outfitted with bed linens, comforters, plush blankets and comfortable & supportive mattresses. Look forward to 100-percent cotton towels in the bathrooms.

An outdoor utility closet houses a double hammock and corn hole, and an oversize Jenga game. Pack up some beverages to take with you out on the lake using the commercial grade wagon. Put on your sneakers and take a hike across the 40-acre property. You won't have to leave the estate during your entire stay!

The home is located within minutes of several ramps and marinas including Dog Creek boat ramp, Wax Marina, Moutardier Marina, and Ponderosa Marina.

For boat and jet ski rental we recommend two marinas. Moutardier is closest to the home by boat and their website is: moutardiernolin.com. Wax Marina is closest to the home via car and their website is: waxmarinanolin.com

About the host

Hosted by Kristin Townsend

Host profile image
I am a wife, mom to two children and an Interior Decorator. While I was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, and currently live there, I have also lived in Atlanta, Georgia, and New York City. My family and I have lived in Louisville, Kentucky in the historic Cherokee Triangle neighborhood for over 18 years in a home built in 1896. We love being close to Cherokee park and all of the activity on Bardstown Road. We also have a second home and boat on Nolin Lake that is our sanctuary from the city. Being on the lake brings us such happiness! My family and I like to travel year round, but especially in the summer when our children are out of school.

Why they chose this property

After spending a couple of years looking for the perfect lake property, we found Timber Lake Lodge. With a private 40-acre wooded estate and direct access to one of the most beautiful & serene coves in all of Nolin Lake, we couldn't find anything in two years of searching of this caliber available at Nolin or any other lake in the state of Kentucky. We knew this was the spot we wanted for our second home with its location in the middle of Nolin Lake for our boat, and the short path to the lake directly in front of the house. We feel blessed to be able to share it with others.
