My family and I like to stay at different properties when we take vacation time as a family. We normally like to stay in different places. Within 15 minutes of being at the property, the kids wanted to come back on our next vacation.
This place was picturesque. I can't tell you how much we enjoyed our stay. It it was all of the little things that the owners thought of that made the difference. They even thought of making a tackle box that had smores supplies for the firepit.
I can't recommend this property more. Unless something happens, my family and I will be back this spring.

Only stayed two nights in this house and wished I had a whole month. The owners had everything you could ever need. They also left me a birthday treat of yummy pumpkin bread. I loved sitting by the fire at night. And fishing during the day. I absolutely fell in love with the cabin, the view, the atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back to this one!

We had a great time at this Cabin. The location was remote but still close enough to needed services. Cozy and loaded with many extras including a s’more kit that the kids loved. Top notch amenities throughout the cabin. I would recommend this for anyone wanting to get away from the hustle.

Our family has been wanting to go to Mammoth Cave for some time. Upon searching for a place to stay while there, we came across “A Stones Throw” on Barren River Lake. The listing looked great…on the water, kayaks, fishing, etc. It was a new listing with no reviews, but we took a chance. IT WAS PERFECT!!! Everything was exactly as the listing described. We did morning cave tours, grabbed some lunch and spent the rest of the day on the water…so much fun!! The deck space was phenomenal with lots of seating and the fire pit was a great place to end the day with s’mores. The home owners were super easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any questions we had. Loved our stay and highly recommend!!!

This was perfect for our little getaway, we all loved the location, we seen a deer every morning walking through woods. We were stunned via the things that was there for use i mean it was over and above! The only thing i would highly recommend folks bringing is mosquito spray and lots of it, but remember you are in the woods so it is expected your going to get them! (of course 100% not a shot at the property) Our group have stayed at a few places for a little getaway but this has been by far the BEST! A few stair but once again you have to expect that. This might sound silly but we loved the stone speaker that just made the nights around the fire pit perfect!...HIGHLY RECOMMEND and the owners are great to have correspondence with!!!

This was a wonderful property. Very clean and had everything we needed and then some (a smores station, fishing poles and kayaks). The kitchen had all the tools we needed to make several meals during our stay. There's two small beds in an upstairs loft, a queen and bunk bed downstairs in separate rooms, and the couch on the main level is a pull out. This would be a good fit for a big family, but I wouldn't recommend it for folks with toddlers/new walkers due to there being lots of stairs both inside and out (our 4 year old did fine with them). The owners were very communicative and accommodating, and we really enjoyed our stay.

This place was perfect for us. I loved everything about it. I can’t say enough good things. It has everything you need for a perfect stay on the lake. My teenage grandson and his best friend had a blast swimming, fishing, and kayaking. The only thing that would have made it better is if it didn’t rain every day we were there. That didn’t stop those boys from having the time of their lives and the lake house was perfect for me to seek refuge from the weather. We will definitely be returning. Thank you Matthew and Melissa for sharing your little piece of heaven with us.

A stones throw was the perfect spot for our family trip. The house was great and Melissa was easy to communicate with. We really appreciated the firewood, smores kit, and beach towels. We would be happy to come back and stay again.

The property was absolutely phenomenal. They thought of everything in the design and all the extra things to do. Cornhole. Kayaks. Life jackets. Paddles. Fire pit. Outdoor lighting. And much more. Very unique and relaxing. Perfect place to stay! Highly recommend!!!

No detail was left out in renting this amazing property. The owners really go above and beyond to make this lake house welcoming. We enjoyed the remote location, ample supply of firewood and smores station. The lake is so peaceful to take the provided kayaks out. Kitchen is well stocked for morning coffee. Don't look anywhere else if you want seclusion and plenty of amenities!

This was the perfect getaway for our family of 5. The property was very clean and appointed with all the things that we needed to just focus on family and fun. The hosts were wonderful and greeted us with a smores welcome basket and were prompt in responding to questions.
