About the host

Hosted by Mark Holzer

Host profile image
Janet and I are both retired living full time in Kernersville, NC. We both grew up and raised our family in Indiana. Janet is from Corydon, Indiana and graduated from Evansville University. I grew up in Versailles, Indiana and graduated from Purdue University. In 1996 my company transferred me to North Carolina. We love living in North Carolina but still have family in Indiana. I love hunting and fishing and am an avid runner. I run the Indy Mini every year. My brother owns 180 acres attached to our property. He has a nice cabin on the far side of our property about a mile away.
This is also his 'get away' property. His permanent home is in Versailles and I have a sister that lives about 10 minutes away in Cross Plains.
We were fortunate to find such a beautiful property in an ideal location to relax and enjoy outdoors. My wife loves to read a good book and finds the property perfect for tranquility.
We have two grown daughters married with two children each. They also love to visit the home. It is great for the grandkids as they love to roam the outdoors and fish. The photo is one with my oldest daughter, son-in-law with friends. We comfortably stayed at the home sleeping 6 adults and 6 children.
We visit the home about 3 months through out year.

Why they chose this property

This property is most valuable to us because of its setting. It is surrounded by woods and sits a good distance from the road. The road deadends less than a mile past our house and traffic is very limited with just a few homes past our property. It is very private and quiet. It is not uncommon to see wild turkey or deer crossing the yard not to mention the squirrels and rabbits. The house is fully furnished with linens for bath and beds and the kitchen is furnished with everything you should need. The outdoor fire pit is popular to fire up late in the evening and perhaps make s'mores for everyone. The 50 foot deck in the back provides a scenic view of the lake and forest. Includes a gas grill and gas cooker. A lighted dock next to the lake is also enjoyable in the late evening to enjoy a nice beverage and conversation with family and friends.
It is in the country and very secluded but near enough small towns and villages for getting essential groceries. It is near historic towns to visit. Vevay and Madison.
In the winter months a wood pellet stove provides plenty of heat for the home and displays a beautiful flame.
Free wifi and cable tv is provided.

What makes this property unique

Although it sits in a very country setting it is not far from Louisville, Lexington, Ky, Cincinnati Oh, Madison, Vevay, Lawerenceburg, Aurora, and Versailles, Indiana.
The Kentucky Speedway, Belterra Casino and Resort and Vevay are less than 30 minutes drive. Nascar has a cup race every July. There are nice shows at Belerra Resort along with golf courses. Vevay and Madison have nice historical museums and wineries to visit. Vevay has a wine festival every August. The Creation Museum and Ark Museum are less than a one hour.
