The cabin's main bed was very cozy and comfortable to sleep on as well as the pillows. There was no hammock as promised in the ad. The ad led us to believe that the amenities included were apart of our package, but when we arrived, we found out that there were extra fees for laundry, ice, firewood, etc. Myself and my husband thought these things were included due to the way the ad was worded. The ad also made the cabin appear larger than what it was and not what we were expecting. We felt that we spent more money than what ot was worth, even though the host was amazing and the facilities were well kept. The cabin floors were dusty though and there were cobwebs and we felt it should've been cleaner since the host was expecting us due to our booking. We also expected to be more secluded than we were and came to find the campground packed with campers and RV's.

The ad appeared as though the bathroom was in the cabin! Very hard for two 70 women to trek up to the main building in the night during 20 degree weather! Heat had quit and had to get help! Beds are very very hard. Bottom bunk cold due to freezing air around the floor. There is a gap between the door and door frame about a foot or more long from bottom of door up allowing freezing air coming in all night. Coffee pot with coffee and things to make coffee and no water! I don’t think I will rent it again.

Labas! Love the Chicken Coop

Big Fan with all the facility had to offer. The Bee Hive was better than Beyonce. Big pile of firewood for us to burn. Fresh water for my dog. And I am now addicted to the chocolates they provided.

Cabin was great and clean

The property was great. Maybe a sign at main road would help to find the campground. Perfect for a weekend stay. Definitely would do it again. It was so cutely decorated and had all the necessities and bathhouse and pool are close as well. We really enjoyed it.

Perfect little Kentucky getaway

It was in such a nice and quiet campground. The Cabin was clean and perfect for 2 or 4 people. We utilized the front porch, the grill, the picnic table and hammock during the whole stay. It was located nicely in the center of all area attractions. We would definitely stay here again!

Clean, comfy cabin

We enjoyed a clean and comfortable stay just a few minutes away from multiple hiking and recreation spots. Although too cold to enjoy the picnic table or hammock we took advantage of the fire pit. The shower house was very close and the bathrooms were large and very clean.

Great Camping Spot

We had an amazing time staying at the cabin. It was exactly what we needed for our weekend getaway. Everything worked well and the cabin was clean. It was nice that the host set up the first round of firewood and had a lighter, lantern, towels, and charcoal. The decorations for Halloween were so cute and welcoming. We will definitely stay again.

Cute cabin near Kentucky Lake

Cute little cabin with linens provided. Reasonable cost. Very nice bathhouse. It is located in a campground with what looks to be permanent campers. The campground is well kept and the owner was helpful. It is very close to the lake area.
