Cabin/Vacation Home In the Woods on Private Lake Close to Louisville, Ky

Welcome to Little Cedar Lodge, our little slice of heaven, near the town of Elizabeth, Indiana. Enjoy the peace and solitude overlooking the quiet private lake, only 5 minutes from Caesars Casino, and ten minutes from the Sporting Club at The Farm or Chariot Run Golf Club. Best Vineyards is 2 miles down the road. Downtown Corydon is 17 minutes away where many caves and hiking trails are available. We are just 20 miles from downtown Louisville with all its activities and nightlife. Great getaway for two, or for your entire family.

Enhanced cleaning and disinfecting procedures in place gleaned from publicly available information from WHO and CDC and recommended by the booking platform.

Enjoy the view and peace and quiet of this cabin in the woods overlooking a private 125-acre lake. Watch for the many varieties of wildlife including the bald eagle, ducks, geese, herons, eagles, osprey, deer, turkey, beaver, and others. No highway noise, and very seldom ever even hear an airplane. No boats or jet skis whizzing up and down the lake either, the lake is wake speed only. Even with all that you are only 20 miles from downtown Louisville. Only 5 minutes from Caesars Southern Indiana Casino. Even if you don't gamble they have several dining choices from casual to fine dining.

Enjoy your morning coffee on the large screened-in deck overlooking the lake. There are two private bedrooms with queen beds, a large loft with 3 full beds, and one twin bed. The family room and kitchen area are open to the roofline, and the loft railing overlooks the downstairs. When you're not outside you can enjoy the Smart TV in the family room, internet and WIFI, along with Netflix and Hulu. We provided a slew of games and cards and poker chips. Family gatherings are okay, but no parties or large groups with booze please (ie bachelor parties, etc).

We have sought to equip our home to a high standard and to anticipate your needs by providing all the things you might want for a luxurious and relaxing stay. Internet, WiFi, TV, hairdryers, iron, ironing board, coffee maker, towels, and common toiletries are provided as standard and a washing machine and dryer are available. You may not swim, fish, boat, or get on the dock as association rules require an owner to be on-site for lake use. There will be a $250 fine/fee if a guest or anyone in the guest's party is caught swimming, fishing, or boating in the lake and you agree if anyone in your party breaks this rule you may be asked to leave. Be advised there is a camera overlooking the lake.

Basic rates include up to two persons. There is an extra $15 charge per person over two per night.

No extra charge for children 3 years or younger (NOTE: Do not enter children under 3 in the children box or the platform will charge you the extra $15 per person. Just tell us the ages of your children in a text message)

Pets are allowed, $15 per night extra charge, must be on a leash at all times when outdoors, must be crated if left unattended, not allowed on furniture, must be potty trained. Clean up after your pet and place it in the lined trash can under the deck (plastic bags can be found in the closet under the stairs). Trash pick-up days are Wednesdays.
No unsafe activities please as we have neighbors on both sides (no discharge of firearms, shooting bows and arrows, fireworks, etc).

We were in the area to hike. This location is perfect…. Except you don’t want to leave the property! High quality bedding & amenities. loved the huge screened in porch with excellent views of the lake surrounded by woods. Very walkable little subdivision!Close to several great hiking areas like Buttermilk Falls, Hemlock Cliffs & O’Bannon State Park to name a few.

Weekend cabin stay

We stayed the weekend for a family get together at a family members house on the same lake. It was convenient and spacious with things to do for the kids in the house on our downtime. Great location and beautiful view of the lake with lots of birds, turtles, and other wildlife. Very peaceful cabin setting!

Just wanted a quiet place to relax with some old friends. This fit the bill! Was taken back by the fact that we shouldn't walk in the neighborhood because we wouldn't be recognized by the association members.

Spent a few days here for family Christmas nearby. We've stayed here several times before and it almost feels like coming home. Love the area, the beauty of the lake and the quiet neighborhood.

We came for a music festival and this home was the perfect spot to unwind and relax. Having our morning coffee while seeing the river from the poech was so perfect. We saw turtles, a bald eagle and blue herons during our stay. Everything was super clean and well stocked with everything one would need for a stay. Def would stay here again. The owners are quick to respond to any questions you may have and very nice. Perfect hosts.

Excellent location for trips if any kind!

Very nice house in a secluded area on a private lake. Screened in porch with a nice view of the lake. Nice fire pit area with tons of firewood on hand. The view of the lake in the morning with the sun shining on the trees across the lake is very pretty. It creates a very pretty reflection on the lake.

Absolutely amazing cabin close to Louisville but secluded enough to fill like you are far away from the hustle and bustle! From the sunrise on the water to the twinkle of twilight in the evening the cabin is situated perfectly next to the lake. This is a great place to rest and relax!

Another Great Stay!

I think this is our third time at this cabin-I grew up in the area and it is very convenient to stay here when visiting family. Ron and Susan are very responsive to questions. Cabin was clean and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen. No dishwasher is sad, but wasn't a huge issue. Two of our adult kids stayed for one night while we were here and really liked the cabin. Thanks for another great stay! We will be back!
