THE COTTAGE

The architect's plan for this refurbished, lovely stone cottage, positioned with truly the greatest view of the main Lake, was to create the ultimate retreat for couples or friends in search of unmatched location and prime fishing. The perfect base from which to explore Kentucky Lake has successfully been constructed. The 680 square-foot lake front area of its deck offers spectacular sunrises without another structure in sight - only a calm unspoiled setting - the lake and nature. This majestic environment seems complete as visitors experience the remarkable image of a Bald Eagle reflected on the water as it soars in to perch on the branch of a surrounding tree. The wrap around deck totals 1100 square feet and is the ideal place to discover the beauty and serenity of Kentucky Lake by the light of day or under a starry sky at any season of the year. There is no more beautiful setting to begin or end your visit to the Lake. Conveniently located only 13 miles from Murray State University. We do include Free WiFi.

While the cottage's design maintains a rustic mood special attention has been paid to provide distinctive quality furnishings and unique amenities that ensure the guests' comfort and a restful visit. The top floor of the cottage has a cathedral ceiling. The living space and dining area feature a grand stone fireplace and floor to ceiling windows that share the main deck's great views. Two well appointed queen bedded rooms and a full bath are also upstairs. Downstairs with a separate entrance is a quaint twin bedded room with a full bath, as well as a laundry facility.

Enhancing and maintaining quality is a happy necessity that keeps our customers returning. Ensuring that every season be one of great memory making feature a custom boat dock adjacent to the cottage with an on property boat rental. A very thoughtful process of considering what features make for the best waterfront experience has brought about many conveniences with the addition of the deluxe dock.

First, There is the Access - Here there is no steep slope or long trek to your boat. Being only one hundred feet away, step out the door and be on the dock in a minute or less. Please note: Lake levels are Gov't controlled and may be lower during non peak season. Minimum 357ft. lake level required for boat rental.

Coverage and Quality are Redefined – Equipped with an attractive and highly functional hip roof, superior protection from the elements is ensured. Not only is the aluminum decking non-slip, but it is splinter free.

Then, there is the Relaxation & Recreation – If after a day out you return full of the sense that exploring and playing on the lake can be both fun and hard work, here is the place to reflect on the day you have had and contemplate tomorrow’s plans. Having a 12x28 swim platform complete with a retractable ladder makes this the spot to share a fun and rejuvenating break lounging, sunbathing or swimming.

We cannot forget the Exceptional Fishing Possibilities - Many of the cottage’s guests return to revisit the location right on our lakefront where they have had very rewarding days fishing for blue gill, bass, crappie, and catfish. We are confident that their future visits will leave them happily convinced and surprised that their past successes here have been surpassed.

The Property Boat Rental: Several well-equipped boats are available to guests at special rates. It is one more convenience, and can add hours to vacation time on Kentucky Lake. There is no drive to and from a marina to collect and return a boat. For a rental over multiple days how great it is to have the driving completely eliminated? Imagine instead the pleasure of a sunrise breakfast ending seamlessly with a stroll across the lawn to board the boat that awaits you at your private dock. Effortlessly, straight from the comfort of your cottage a day out on the lake begins...

While visitors may be satisfied to not leave the property during their stay, there are many great experiences to be found locally:

FISHING: The fish are surely not hard to find, but for visitors with the goal of maximizing their fishing experience the owners have established relationships with the areas most knowledgeable guides. We are delighted to introduce guests to any one of these specialists who have each made it his life's passion to master and uncover this lake’s greatest features - impressive fishing opportunities and a wide array of wildlife. They are at the disposal of the expert or the novice and promise anyone wishing to learn and have the mysteries of Kentucky Lake revealed a day that will long be remembered.

GOLF: In addition to the satisfaction a day on the water offers, just a 15 minute drive away is Miller Memorial Golf Course - considered to be one of the finest golf courses in west Kentucky's lakes region, it presents many challenges for even the most seasoned golfer.

LAND BETWEEN THE LAKES: Guests have a direct view of the Land Between the Lakes from the cottage itself. It's just a 15 minute drive away. It is a national recreation area with 170,000 acres of wildlife, history, and outdoor activity opportunities, surrounded by 300 miles of undeveloped shoreline. LBL’s Elk & Bison Prairie is a 700-acre restoration of Kentucky’s native barrens. The Homeplace is an 1850’s working farm where west Kentucky’s history comes alive - Interpreters in period clothing demonstrate on a daily basis the chores and activities of another time. There are special events and festivals for every season. On another day one might return to explore the 200 miles of trails, the Nature Station, or the Golden Pond Planetarium & Observatory.

Great house and location!

We came to fish and relax a few days. This house was perfect. Very clean and well stocked. They have a boat to rent as well if you like. We were going to do that one day but my friend had already got too much sun, so may be next time.

Cozy stay - close to nature.

This was a perfect stay for me and my dog…warm fireplace, Cozy cabin, comfy beds, all the necessary kitchen tools, responsive hosts, and nature’s wonders! My favorite site were the two bald eagles I saw outside sitting in the tree in the yard! I would definitely recommend this location.

Peaceful and beautiful views

This house is very cozy and well decorated. Large deck overlooking the lake. Comfortable furniture and lots of windows to bring the outside in. It is tucked in the woods and although there is another on one side you still feel secluded. We loved our stay here and will definitely come back.

Just what the Doctor prescribed

Sunsets, sunrises, wildlife and water views were absolutely stunning. The cottage was outfitted with nearly everything one could need. We were discovering items on our 5th day! And the hosts, Pam and Paul, were responsive to our needs. My only critical review is that the 3rd bedroom and 2nd bathroom are in a below grade level that is only accessible outside. The ceilings are low in this level and there is a distinct odor of dampness. That being said….. I plan to return and rent the same cottage.

Absolutely Perfect

Perfect spot for our 5-day getaway with our two dogs. Waking up to the lake view each morning was a great way to start the day. (We were even lucky enough to have a bald eagle hanging out on the property.) The cottage was stocked with everything we needed to feel at home—including a thoughtful treat basket for both us and our pups! We enjoyed every moment and look forward to returning in the future. The town is really cute and an easy drive if you want to explore the area around Murray State.

My husband and I along with our dog loved our stay! First and foremost, the view is wonderful! We saw deer, eagles, pelicans and squirrels. Cottage was exceptionally clean with wonderful attention to details from the welcome basket to the fresh spices in the kitchen. Gracious, welcoming hosts that provided timely communication. Overall, one of the best VRBO spots we have vacationed. Thanks Pam and Paul for a very special trip that we will always remember.

Cozy cottage with a beautiful view!

We found everything we needed for a weekend of rest and relaxation. The cottage was spotless and provided everything we needed and more. The view in three directions was beautiful. I'm sure the lake is full of activity and fun in the spring and summer months, but it also provides a peaceful place of relaxation and beauty in the fall and winter.

Fall Break

Just returned from our Fall Break at the Stone Cottage. What a relaxing and wonderful stay. Although the weather was not terribly cooperative, we were able to sit on the boat dock one afternoon and catch our dinner (Bass, Catfish, Perch) which I promptly cooked up in the well-equipped kitchen! The Cottage was exactly as portrayed but the photos really don't do it justice. You just have to stay here to appreciate the tranquility and peacefulness that surrounds this place.
