We've been visiting Kentucky Lake for several years, and with our family expanding, we decided to book a larger home to accomodate us this year. This property was percet for us.
Some of the things we loved:
-Very well stocked. Everything from firewood, pots & pans, trash bags, laundry/dish detergent, toilet paper, tin foil, zip lock bags, utensils, etc. We were really pleased with how little we had to obtain from the store when we arrived.
-The private, covered dock fit our fishing boat perfectly. There is even an cabinet on the dock to store your lifejackets, fishing poles, supplies, etc. Really convenient!
-The beds were more comfortable than we antiicipated!
-We had filled up both trash bins before the scheduled pick up date, and the owners made arrangements to have that picked up for us very promptly.
-The house is stocked with several games, including cards and a bags set!
-Kentucky can get steamy mid-July, but the back yard is very well shaded and has beautiful views.
-Perfect for fishing, swiming, or any water activities!
A few things to consider:
-We would have loved to have a large outdoor table on the patio to eat at. Bring a few folding tables if you're considering booking and spending a lot of time outside. The patio is large enough to accomodate it.
-Not all of the bedroom doors lock in the home, including a very tricky bathroom door lock.
-The bathroom toilet on the upstairs level is not made for tall humans. If you're over 6 ft, it will feel like it was made for a potty training a toddler.
-The family room couch has seen better days, and is falling apart at the seams. We didn't have to worry about this too much, since the majority of our time was spent outside.
Our biggest concern from this property was that there is not a handrail down the steps leading out to the porch. It's very hazardous, and my father in law took a bad tumble down them. In the future we would like to see one placed there for safety reasons. My guess is that it is very close to Kentucky's building code for handrails.
All in all, this home gave us everything we needed and wanted for our trip, and are really appreciative to the owners for being so accomodating and welcoming. We hope to be back!
