Om boendet

Off-Grid Solar Lakefront House / Private 80 + Wooded Acres På Nolin Lake

Kom bort från allt på "Disaway", ett miljövänligt, privatägt sjöfronthus på 80 + skyddade hektar skog på Nolin Lake, perfekt för både Lovers och Nature Lovers. ***** ABSOLUTT FANTASTISKT ATT BESÖKA I FALL OCH TACKGIVNING ***** Turkiet Roaster är tillgänglig och väntar.

Detta enstaka, solskyddade hus (w / back-up generator) var en av de första någonsin solhusen i delstaten Kentucky, men har nästan alla bekvämligheter i det moderna samhället utom två: det har INGEN TELEVISION / WIFI OCH INGEN NÄRBARHETER (Men utmärkt cellmottagning för de flesta). Över 80 + hektar, de flesta som aldrig kan utvecklas, förknippas med huset gör denna möjlighet som ingen annan. En frist här ger en extremt bekväm plats att uppleva Kentuckys natur, med en privat brygga som nås via en mild lutning, omfattande terrass- och uteplatser, stjärngazerande däck, skärmad veranda, över 3/4 miles av lakefront, skidåkning / slang, fiske, vandringsleder precis utanför din bakdörr och fågelskådning på plats. Du kommer att ha närliggande tillgång till båtuthyrning, ridning, golf och Mammoth Cave National Park.

Fördjupa dig i vägarna genom de privata skogen som ger miles att utforska de naturliga omgivningarna. Ett urval av fågelobservationer på fastigheten inkluderar Bald Eagle, Osprey, Kingfishers, Scarlet och Summer Tanagers, Indigo Buntings, Whippoorwills, Bob Whites, 5 + sorter av spett, 4-5 hökarter, kranar. . . listan fortsätter och fortsätter. Den mogna skogen är hem för hjort, kalkon, bobcats och tvättbjörnar, bland andra (inga björnar). Över 20 typer av naturliga vildblommor noterades vara blommande på en dag inom 150 meter av garaget. Använd de medföljande kajakerna (och flytvästarna) för att utforska den längsta privatägda strandlinjen i huvuddelen av Nolin Lake eller ta med egen båt för att knyta upp till den enda privata bryggan.

Passiv-sol design och öppen planlösning med massor av fönster möjliggöra vacker utsikt från alla rum i huset. Den centrala öppna ytan tillåter huset att kylas av en enda energieffektiv split A / C-enhet, och uppvärmd av sten spis (men kan kompletteras med de inbyggda propan värmare). Den stora sjö vetter däck och uteplats kan sitta över 2 dussin människor, och ge ett lugnt skuggat område för sommardagar eller det perfekta svala vädret sittplatser för en nattvakt som lyssnar på Barred Owls och Chuck-Will-Widows. (Ved tillhandahållen!) Med inga ljus från grannar kan vinklar från vildmarken vara andfådd på en månlös natt.

Detta cedar-sidiga hem ligger bland höga vita ek, hickory och bokträd med solpanelerna 250 meter bort i garaget. De fyra sovrummen (varav en är ett loft) och 2. 5 bad på 2100 m² kan bekvämt rymma 12-14 (Plus 1 med tillgänglig Pack-N-Play). Det moderna, fullt utrustade köket har kyl / frys med ismaskin, gasugn / spis, mikrovågsugn, kaffebryggare, dubbla handfat och separat prep diskbänk. Utegrill är också propan. Huvudvåningen sovrummet har ett eget badrum, queen size-säng, och ett sittande / spelområde mot sjön. På övervåningen sovrummet har en queen size-säng, läsarea med en utfällbar futon som kan sova 2 mer. Den extra sovrum och loft område kan sova 2 och 4 mer respektive.

Nära attraktionerna inkluderar båtuthyrning på Moutardier Marina, Mammoth Cave, Corvette Museum i Bowling Green, relativ närhet till Bourbon Trail, golf vid Shady Hollow, ridning genom Mammoth Cave på Double J Stables .

En ganska brant kulle hälsar en efter att ha kommit in i landet, och vägen tillbaka kan verka som att det kanske inte är något ljus i slutet av tunneln. Men ett ljus är där så var tålamod. Ibland kan generatorn startas manuellt (instruktioner ingår naturligtvis).

Om du letar efter en vild, feststämning där hälften av folk kramar kring en TV på spelkväll eller en annan för "reality TV", är den här platsen inte för dig. Om du letar efter behandling för det överväldigande samhällets förflutna, en plats för att komma undan allt och återupptäck naturen, återansluta med din familj, spendera oändliga timmar som flyter i en avskild vik, utforska inhemska Kentucky skogsmarker eller vätska en linje, välkomnar vi Du som våra gäster.

Very peaceful!

We enjoyed our stay. The house is well off the main road. The only sounds we heard were from nature. The deck and fire pit was perfect for catching up and hanging out. The house is solar powered so we did lose power a few times for a few minutes. The owner was always available to help us through the generator start up. But we knew this going in. There is not much to do in the area outside of the caves. Plan on cooking in. Would definitely stay there again.

TLC needed

The owner was outstanding and very easy to work with. The property, however, needs a lot of TLC and the cabin needs a deep deep cleaning before it’s rented again. Mark was top-notch and help us through a power outage. I’d rent from him again, just not this cabin in its current condition.

Private lakefront property

Private and heavily wooded property. Private dock was great for the swimming and our boat tie ups. Not ideal for biking as trails were not visible or too wooded to traverse.

Family vacation

We really enjoyed this home! The lake is lovely and fun swimming in this quiet cove. The kids fished every evening and caught quite a few every night right from the dock. The walk to the dock was not too bad, a little bit of a workout coming back up in the 90 degree heat. The house did pretty well staying cool in the extreme heat, but we did use a few portable fans. The house was exactly as described and we did not miss having a TV or WiFi Kitchen was well equipped. My only suggestion for owners would be to add another trash can- because a week with 11 people created quite a bit 😊 We have never been to Nolan lake and will definitely be back. All the kids and grandkids agreed that they liked this house and lake and location better than previous vacation rentals.

Great Place for 4 couples!

Our group of 8 (four couples) had a great stay during a long weekend stay over Memorial Day. Kitchen very well socked and handled many cooks in the kitchen easily, with kitchen bar seats so we could all talk comfortably while preparing meals. Likewise the large table was perfect for meals together. The sofa is large and comfortable so we could all hang out in living room with comfortable seating. Beds and linens comfortable and everything was ready for us when we arrived. Several members of our group took advantage of the kayaks and started the day with a great dose of Mother Nature. The wooded setting is absolutely beautiful and made you just want to hang out together and soak in the nature. Abundant windows throughout the home brought nature indoors. We had a fire in the fire pit one night. Everyone fit around it and there were plenty of deck chairs but I think8 might be the max around the fire—but the adjacent deck is huge so if we had had more there would have been more than enough room there. It somehow worked even though the wood was really wet. Luckily my husband brought a fire starter. Owner great to work with. He accommodated one request and was a delight to deal with. Loved the idea of being in an off-grid place, but we ended up using the generator do to our extensive use of lights, ceiling fans, and appliances while cooking. Plenty of parking for our three vehicles. We didn’t think it was hard to find with the owner’s great instructions. I hope I can bring my family there next!

Clean and uncluttered with large kitchen/great room. Two sets of sliding doors out to deck.

As advertised, secluded solar 3 BR 2.5 bath house w deck overlooking woods. Also includes screened in porch and another private deck off an upstairs BR. House was clean and cool upon arrival in mid-August. Ample linens, towels, napkins and placemats provided. Lots of chairs and two round tables on the deck, plus picnic table in the yard. Trail to the dock was sloping but not too strenuous. Dock had an umbrella to provide shade and a ladder to get out of the water when swimming. Large supply of games and puzzles in case of rain. We were all adults, but I can see a couple of families having a great time here. No TV and no WiFi which we really didn’t miss. Most had at least limited cell service via Sprint and Verizon. Moutadier Marina is a short drive away where we rented a pontoon boat. We cooked in, but there is a restaurant near the marina, and a few stores nearby where we picked up those forgotten items. Kitchen is well stocked with several large pots for spaghetti, boiling corn; baking pans, cookie sheets and frying pans. Quality of cookware is good. Nice large grill w extra burner runs off the house propane line. No worries about an empty tank. Concrete patio for the fire pit was a little small for our group but we managed. Nice supply of wood provided. GPS took us right to the driveway. The gravel drive is totally navigable. We all had sedans of various types. The seclusion and lack of light pollution enabled us to see massive numbers of stars, including the Perseid meteor shower, despite only a small opening in the tree canopy. Heard owls, great blue herons, woodpeckers, eagles and also coyotes two nights about 10:30 pm. Saw deer, a bald eagle, herons and we were escorted down the drive by hosts of butterflies feeding on large purple flowers. A wonderful place to get away from the city and relax in nature with friends or family. Owner is responsive, provided great information and acted quickly to solve a problem left by previous guest. He obviously loves this place and I appreciate him sharing his home with us.

Fantastic spot for the family and friends.

Amazing and secluded property that allows you to put away the electronics and unplug without giving up the comforts of home. Bring friends or family for a much needed retreat. Plenty of space and beds for everyone. There is even a small reading corner on the upper floor to quietly relax and catch up on your favorite novel. Down the hill is a private dock with chairs, kayaks, and even an umbrella to provide shade on hot summer afternoons. A huge back deck with plenty of seating is shaded by large growth maples and oaks and even a dogwood that I’m certain would be gorgeous in the Spring. I simply can’t think of one thing negative to say.

Excellent Cabin in the Woods

Three generations of our family stayed in the Bee Spring cabin. We were delighted with the layout of the cabin, its nearness to the lake (but shielded from a direct view of the lake - which was important, or the kids would have been begging to swim all the time!), and the site's short drive distance from Mammoth Cave. We especially loved the porches - great for bird-watching!!!

Great Way To Get Away From It All.

This was a perfect place for our family to checkout for awhile. We as a family enjoyed our time together without the day to day stresses of technology. We enjoyed our time playing games, swimming, kayaking and visiting Mammoth Cave National Park. Mark the owner was very friendly and provided lots of information. Positives: Large open spaces, direct lake access for swimming and kayaking. Cons: AC had a hard time keeping up with the hot days, bed broken in one of the rooms. For the price, somethings were rather dated.

In all, we had a wonderful time at this house, but with a few shortcomings.

The Nolin lake house in the woods is really very nice, quite beautiful, with big windows looking into foliage and the lake beyond, and generally well appointed and supplied. The views were great and we made good use of the lake and the kayaks. The open living area layout is great for a family gathering. Our group of eight people (six adults and two children) were very comfortable and fit perfectly around the large table for meals and family games. Likewise, the large sectional couch could accommodate us all. We brought our own screen and projector for watching movies together. There is a big porch/balcony where we enjoyed listening to birds and seeing fireflies. Of course during summertime in the woods, there were plenty of bugs to contend with, and ticks were a particular concern. For the most part the kitchen and laundry appliances were modern, in good shape and worked well. However, the ice maker was broken and there were no ice trays, so guest should be advised to arrive with a bag of ice. Also, the gas grill was non-functional, so the expert chef in the group had to grill over the fire pit. We really appreciated the provision of linens, towels, cloth napkins, toilet paper, and paper towels, as we are driving from out of state with already fully loaded cars. While the concept of the house being "off the grid" is well and good, the owner needs to improve the system so that the generator kicks in automatically when needed. The power would go off at some point pretty much every day, requiring someone to don long pants and apply bug repellant to traipse the hundred yards up the drive to the out building where the generator was located and manually start the generator. My biggest complaint, however, is with the access "road" which was rocky and narrow with a ridge in the center that was too high for our Prius to clear without scraping bottom. We had to drive with one set of wheels on the center ridge and the other on one edge, which was downright scary at two narrow parts with drop-offs on both sides, and challenging when the sides were deep and muddy or so steep and rocky that the wheels slipped. A couple of days we left the Prius parked out by the main road and had our son-in-law ferry people back and forth with his 4-wheel-drive Subaru. Another small point is that if you like bar soap, bring your own.

Beautiful Home

We really enjoyed our time at Disaway with our 3 kids (8, 5 & 3). The house and surrounding property is just beautiful. For those worried about the lack of technology (and we definitely were), we didn't even miss the TV/Internet. Instead we played games, did puzzles, took walks up and down the long and windy driveway and just relaxed looking over the lake. The home is stocked with everything that you would need, including many different games/toys for the kids, kayaks, life vests, firewood, washer/dryer, kitchen necessities, etc. Also, the upstairs loft area was a huge hit with our kids! We visited many of the local attractions and had a very memorable Spring Break. Already planning when we can come back!

The home was open, comfortable and the property was beautiful!

We had a group of 12, which included youth from a trauma therapy program. The kids loved exploring the 80 acre property, even when it was raining. There was plenty to do inside also, lots of games to enjoy! The best part—-no TV’s! We spent our trip talking and interacting with each other. Mark was an amazing host, he communicated thoroughly prior to our trip and was very responsive when we had questions during our trip. If you want privacy and seclusion within a beautiful, wooded setting on a lake, this is the place! Thank you Mark!

The Perfect Family Get Away! Relax, UnWind and Enjoy.

What an amazing hidden treasure. Secluded, peaceful and yet full of life. Our family spent the Thanksgiving holiday here and would recommend it to everyone. A gorgeous view from the front door to the back deck to the open balcony; a beautiful lake, and stunning wild animals. We were fortunate to see deer, wild turkeys, hawks, and a bobcat! Being a nature lover, our family fell in love with this getaway. Hiking trails around the property were perfect for exploring. We had a five day vacation and never left the property for the first two days! Lots to see and enjoy. Of course some of our kids were worried about not having Wifi or tv. However that was quickly forgotten about. We spent the days wandering and the evenings actually talking to each other, playing games, enjoying the fire place & outdoor deck campfire. If you are looking for a place to destress, unwind, and reconnect with your family, this is the perfect place! Oh and you're "next door" to a state park & Mammoth Cave. What more can you ask for...

Om värden

Mark är värd

Värdens profilbild
I have been visiting Nolin Lake since I was 3 years old, my family having owned 2 different cabins through the years. Both areas eventually became too developed, basically becoming subdivisions next to the lake. My wife and I bought the vacant land in 1998 with the intent of maintaining it in a natural state and camped on the point for a decade. Our oldest girl camped for a few years, but we needed a cabin once our twins were born. The house was completed in 2007-2008, immediately becoming one of the most unique local places one could ever visit.

Varför värden valde detta boende

Being so far from the main road, and our desire to keep the woods intact, the decision to use solar power was not difficult. The house was designed from the ground up by Ginger Watkins, a refreshing new architect. Jeremy Coxon, founder of SunWindPower Inc, provided the expertise in developing a solar power system with generator back-up. The house was one of the first EVER totally off-grid houses in the entire state of Kentucky. Leon Mattingly, a local builder, came onto the project with decades of experience yet an open mind to deal with the unique requirements the house needed to make it as energy-efficient as possible.

We were quite meticulous in the placement of the house, preservation of the surrounding trees, access to the lake, etc. The careful pruning of the trees to increase views through the woods began years before the first shovel hit the ground. Even the ATV trails, which were quite active at the time of the purchase of the land, have been recycled, providing the basis of the hiking and mountain-biking trails around the lake. Most of the 83+ acres have been protected in a conservation easement, promising a legacy from our family to the beautiful nature of our beloved home state that our children can be proud of. The restrictions allow for a harvest of timber on a renewable basis, the most recent being in 2015. Prior to that, one was done in the early 1990's. Despite this, the land continues to support a oak/hickory forest upon which wildlife thrives.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

The privacy of this house is unsurpassed. The hiking begins literally within a few feet of the house. The 0.8 mile-long driveway provides a pleasant quiet walk without having to worry about going 'off-road'. The private dock (only a handful of private docks on whole lake) sits in small offshoot of the main cove, with no other houses within 1/4 of a mile, though a couple of docks can be seen down the lake. (One distant dock can be quite, um, active on holiday weekends providing a reminder of how much you are enjoying your seclusion.)

New bird watchers can learn quite a bit just by looking out the windows or sitting on the dock or decks. Experienced nature lovers can use their ears to explore the woods even deeper. The amount of wildflowers and butterflies can keep kids entertained for hours.
