About this house rental
Nestled in Nolin Lake, this charming house for $436 per night is a great choice for your next trip. We are located only 8 miles from the north entrance of Mammoth Cave National Park and on Nolin Lake. We are open for rental year around. This 1200 sq. ft. home has 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, living room with sectional, color 65inch flat screen smart TV, WIFI (You Tube TV), DVD, and central heat & air. There is a 20 x 26 patio porch with gas grill and picnic table overlooking Nolin Lake. All that you need to bring is food & lake towels!! On Nolin Lake you are able to enjoy swimming, skiing and fishing. Other activities nearby include cave tours, museums, golf, hiking, horseback riding, shopping and live theatre. We are located only 8 miles from the north entrance of Mammoth Cave National Park and only 30 / 45 minutes away from other show-caves and area attractions Policies: No Smoking, no pets and max number of overnight guest is 8. Please be advised Nolin Lake is owned by the US Corp of Engineers and is used for flood control. Lake access is best during the summer as the Corp lowers the lake (25 / 30 feet) starting late October. Due to the flood control aspect of the lake, the walk up and down to the water can be steep and some guest might find it difficult. Boat parking at the dock is no longer available as the Corp of Engineers restricts rented properties from using a permitted boat dock. There is a boat ramp 1/4 mile away that you can launch and recover your boat very easily with parking at the ramp (parking can be limited on weekends). Swimming is available off the shoreline (note rocky and deep), or at the boat ramp, or one of the nearby public beaches (Nolin Lake State Park).

We stayed here for a 3 night girls get away trip. It was the mid point meeting up with friends from Georgia and us from northern Indiana. We never left the property and stayed busy playing games, talking, crafting and eating. It was a great place to do everything we had planned.

We were looking for a house for 3 adults and kids 15,11 and 7. This worked great! Kids loved the game room and parents loved sitting out on the deck with the view. Walk to the lake is pretty steep but we only went down once. We spent the day at Mammoth Caves and just the evenings at the house. Comfy chairs by the fire would of been a nice bonus but otherwise this house was very nice. The had a very simple checkout process posted on the fridge. Quick and easy to leave. Driving up the driveway could ve scary in the rain/ice but we had good weather and no issues.

Beautiful house... beautiful location!
The bedrooms were great for our family of 5 with 2 boys & 1 girl. The playroom/sunroom was a great addition when indoors. Kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. The outside patio was the best place to hang out for us ...we ate all our dinners outside!!!
It is a bit hard to find...try to get there while its still day outside. Called the owner and she helped us immediately!

The house is well equipped and comfortable. Make sure to stop at the store on the way in, or travel a bit to go back out. Very quiet area to relax and enjoy some down time. Thanks for sharing!

Had a wonderful weekend at this house. Enjoyed family time and lake time. Very busy lake traffic due to holiday but still had a great time. Took our kayaks and was able to leave on rocky shore so we wouldn’t have to carry up and down each day. House had everything you need to have a great time. All you need is to make sure you bring groceries since there isn’t many stores nearby. Loved the huge front porch overlooking the lake.

This home suited us very well, was clean, had all the amenities we expected with a spacious living room where we could gather. Beautiful deck and view. Were primarily visiting to see the caves, party of 6 adults made renting a house more economical. Was about 40 minutes to anywhere on curvy hilly roads, but we made it to all the sites we wanted to visit.

Beautiful lake view. Property was close to all the caves we wanted to tour and there were plenty of nice places to eat near Cave City and Park City. Nice relaxing weekend.

What we loved: The lakefront setting was peaceful and lovely. The deck. Well-equipped kitchen. A bathroom for each bedroom. Convenient to Mammoth Cave and Lake Nolan Parks.
What could be better: The sofas are worn out, stained and not comfortable. Some of the beds had memory foam toppers, which are softer than we prefer.

The view and deck were amazing. Check-in was simple and fast. The property has everything listed in the add. Clean. The TV is big and super!
My observation is that theThere is a very strong musty smell, especially in the kid's play room. The living room furniture is old and not comfortable and the kitchen chairs are metal. The basics are provided but do not expect any extras.
Be prepared to wash dishes. No dishwasher. In defense however one is not listed.

We weren't really at the property much. The house was perfect size for our party of 6, I think that having 8 people there would be too much. Was a little disappointed that the lake in the front of the house was hard to access but overall a pleasant stay.

Great view and really nice house on the lake. The owners were very easy to work with and price was fair. Might go back in the summer for a fishing trip.

My family and I stayed here while visiting relatives. We really enjoyed this cabin. The view was spectacular, especially with bare trees not blocking the lake. Plenty of space for everyone. The back deck area was our favorite.
The kitchen had everything needed for meals. The living area had comfy furniture and a huge TV. Three large bedrooms provided plenty of sleeping space, however, the mattress in the bedroom with the shower bath attached was too soft for my spouse. He did find the couch comfy for sleeping, though.
Bathrooms were clean. The shower stall is a tight fit for adults. We did not use the sunroom at the front, since it was a bit chilly and had a musty smell. Overall, the cabin was a great place to stay. My only concern was that the photos and description do not convey how steep the driveway is. There is also a drop-off at the end of the parking area. We did not have any problems getting in or out, thankfully we had a backup camera.

The cabin and surroundings were beautiful. Nolin Lake is amazing. Property was awesome. Cabin was a little dirty (floors, dusty, etc.), but nothing we couldn’t take care of ourselves. Would stay here again!!

This is a nice place. It is easy to get to, there is a dollar general nearby, it has all of the basics. My suggestion to other guests is to bring additional bedding materials. There were no extra blankets and only one extra pillow. In addition I would bring some additional trash bags there were only a few available. And make sure you have all your shampoos and conditioner. This really is a quaint and quiet place with a beautiful view. You won't be disappointed.

Thank you for a peaceful weekend getaway with family! Our teenage boys loved fishing off the dock and along the shoreline, they also enjoyed swimming in the lake! My dad and I enjoyed the mornings on the deck with coffee in hand. We did some kayaking down the river and spent a day a Blue Hollar Offroad Park. Would love to come back someday!

We booked this rental and planned on going to the Mammoth Caves. It is kind of far from the caves, but it's not too bad. The cabin was cute and we loved the outdoor porch. The only issue we had was the cleanliness. The oven had had a deep clean and the ashes were left behind and not cleaned out. There was also a lot of hair stuck to the sheets in the bunk bed room so I was unsure if they had been washed or not. Overall, we would recommend this property and we enjoyed our stay.

After a day of exploring the national park, coming back to the lake house to jump in the lake was just what we needed. We had a great time playing games on the deck and sharing stories around the fire.
The beds were comfy and we all slept great. We are already talking about coming back next year.

This was our first time at this property and we would return. The hill is steep and could really use some steps, but the height provides a beautiful view of the trees across the lake and the lake itself from the deck. We ate all our meals on the deck -with the fans in and being off the ground, mosquitos were no issue. Ants did start to take over the wood table, so a good spraying would be beneficial in the summer before groups arrive. The kitchen has good counter space and storage and the fridge was very clean. Nice view out the kitchen windows. The bedrooms are clean and nice paint...beds ok. All 3 have en-suite bathrooms, which is great and plenty of nice towels in the laundry room. Kids loved the bunk beds with the full size one on the bottom. We appreciated the shampoo/conditioner and little soaps. One bedroom/bathroom has been updated with laminate wood floors and that was especially appreciated-looks modern and feels better and cleaner to walk on. I think it would be worth the owners time to do the same with the other bedrooms and the living room floors and to update the the bathroom that has the full bath in it. The living room could really be brightened up with that same flooring. That back room is neat looking but It was hot and mildewy smelling, so not able to use, but the windows looking on the limestone wall are nice. The water off the dock is very lovely to swim in and the surrounding nature is just amazing. Thanks for the use of the inner tube and raft! A kayak would also be a WONDERFUL addition. Storms rolled in and we could still sit on the huge deck and watch the lake and sky-it really makes you feel you are somewhere else! The community is very friendly and we would love to return!

Extremely clean, organized and had all kitchen and sleeping items we needed.
Large outside deck and right on the lake.
It was better than advertised from our view.
Recommend it for any large family.

Just as described. Host was timely with responses.
We had our annual girls trip and chose this home. We were not disappointed at all. Access was convenient to the docks, place was clean and had everything we needed (except a dishwasher) but we managed. 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms for 4 women was awesome.
Neighbors were very friendly.
We would definitely stay here again.
