About this property
Lakefront Home | Private Dock, Hot Tub & Kayaks
Nestled on Kentucky Lake, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage in Murray is the perfect getaway for your next fishing trip, small family vacation, and outdoor retreat! After spending a day on the lake with the 2 provided kayaks, come home and lounge on the screened patio and take a dip in the hot tub, then fire up the grill for a family cookout. If you’d rather keep your feet on land, explore the on-site hiking trails or venture to the Lakes Recreational Area for over 500 miles of trails and wildlife.
Tie up your boat in your own slip or rent a pontoon boat or jet ski on-site.

Because we live and work locally, we understand the Kentucky Lake area and are available when our guests need us. We’re happy to share recommendations for family activities, restaurants, fishing, boating, hiking, Land Between the Lakes, and other nearby attractions.
We take pride in:
• Clear communication with detailed arrival information and helpful responses • Clean, well-maintained homes prepared with care before every stay • Thoughtful amenities that make family vacations easier and more enjoyable • Local knowledge to help guests experience the best of Kentucky Lake and Murray • Responsive support throughout the booking process and during your visit

Why they chose this property
Driftwood Retreat is made for easy, memory-filled family vacations on Kentucky Lake. Unlike a basic fishing cabin, this comfortable 2-bedroom lakefront cottage combines private water access with the practical features families need for a relaxing stay.
Your family will have a private covered dock for swimming, fishing, kayaking, boat tie-up, and relaxing beside the lake. Two kayaks and life jackets are included, making it easy to explore the shoreline and nearby coves without arranging a separate rental.
The screened porch is another guest favorite, featuring a private 6-person hot tub that can be enjoyed rain or shine with fewer bugs. Outside, families can gather around the firepit for s’mores, play cornhole, relax in the hammock, grill dinner, or enjoy meals on the deck surrounded by peaceful wooded and lake views. Firewood and propane are provided.
Inside, the spacious living room has a large sectional, 65-inch Roku TV, electric fireplace, and futon for family movie nights and extra sleeping space. The fully equipped kitchen, dual-use Keurig, washer and dryer, fast Wi-Fi, king bedroom, and queen-over-queen bunk room make Driftwood comfortable for weekends or full-week Kentucky Lake vacations.
Driftwood Retreat is also close to Murray, Kentucky and Land Between the Lakes, including hiking, wildlife viewing, scenic drives, Elk & Bison Prairie, and The Homeplace.
Optional on-site pontoon and jet ski rentals are available April 15 through September 15 for an additional fee, so families can enjoy a complete Kentucky Lake adventure without towing their own watercraft.
Driftwood Retreat gives families more than a place to sleep—it provides private lake access, year-round amenities, comfortable gathering spaces, and everything needed to slow down and make lasting memories together.
