Lakeview Cabin on Barren River

BuffyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

This place has so much more to offer than the listing indicates. If you’re on the fence about booking this home, don’t hesitate…do it! The layout was perfect for our family, offering 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 baths on the main level with easy access for my elderly mother, and another bedroom, bath and laundry in the basement level for our teen boys offering a bed, futon and sectional sofa. The gaming options were definitely used by them and the lake amenities were an added bonus. The kitchen had all we needed, and the sunroom was a great place for me to get some work done when I had to. The house offers direct lake access-can’t beat the location!

Nature's Calling.

HildaRating, 5 stars7 months ago

Our second time staying at a Tim & Shannon lodging (first time was Fishy Business in May 2024), and we knew we would have a wonderful time at their Nature's Calling site. We were not disappointed! Beautiful surroundings, lovely and comfortable cabin with all the amenities needed. Their place is close to my daughter's home so we were able to visit her and have her and the grandkids visit with us. We hope to stay here again, on our next trip out to Kentucky. Thank you Tim & Shannon for sharing this beautiful place!
