The house was very well maintained and clean. It had about everything you could want, and the hot tub and pond were great additions. Communication with the owners was excellent and we were even allowed to check in a bit early as we arrived earlier than expected. Truly a wonderful retreat!

Great getaway

We were looking for a quiet place to enjoy nature and relax away from the city for a while. This place was wonderful. We got all of that and more on top of being able to enjoy Mammoth Cave for a few days. The property is comfortable and well maintained. We are already considering another visit.

The cabin was absolutely beautiful with plenty of space for the 6 of us. All beds were super comfy and the lux shower in the master bath was heavenly after a full day of hiking at Mammoth Cave. It was about 45mins to the park since the ferry was closed.

This property is amazing! If you are looking to get off the grid and spend some quality time with your family, you can not go wrong with this place. The listing does not do the pond enough justice. The pond has an awesome deck, the water is CLEAN, and there are plenty of fish.

Great rental home near Mammoth Cave

We were a group of 8 (2 families each with tween/teen girls). We all found the home to be modern, comfortable, and clean. Plenty of space for us all. Great kitchen with everything needed to cook meals. We all loved the grounds with the pretty pond and geese. We also enjoyed the fire pit .. perfect for s'mores! 10 minutes to Mammoth Cave National Park when the ferry is operating .. 45 minutes when it's not ( but the drive is pretty).

A Lovely Stay

We loved our time at this cottage! The children especially enjoyed the full size built in bunk beds and the pond that they enjoyed fishing in! The porch was welcoming with its swing and dining table! The fire pit was very nice as well! We took the Green River Ferry and were in Mammoth Cave National Park very quickly! The furniture was comfortable and the decor was beautiful! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Family vacation mammoth cave

Stunning property! We really enjoyed our stay. When the ferry was running, there was easy access to mammoth cave. I advise to check the hours ahead of time to plan accordingly. Our kids loved fishing in the pond. The adults enjoyed the view. There was a drainage issue with one of the showers but it was fixed very promptly. Overall an excellent stay!

Great get away near Mammoth Cave

The property is private and serene, a fantastic place to spend time as a family and relax. The bunk room has full sized beds so it sleeps 8. What a gorgeous and well kept home. If you plan to visit Mammoth Cave, book tours ahead of time or you aren’t allowed in. We did Crystal Onyx cave tour instead and it was enjoyed by all!

Lovely private home near Mammoth Cave

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful house near Mammoth Cave! The property is absolutely stunning, with a lovely fire pit that we enjoyed, and a peaceful private lake that added to the serene atmosphere. The house itself was gorgeous—spacious, clean, and very well-maintained. We really appreciated the tranquil surroundings and the opportunity to unwind in such a beautiful setting. The only downside was the limited space for eating inside, and unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate, so we couldn’t take advantage of the outdoor dining area. Despite this, we still had an incredible time and would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. Five stars all around!
