This property is quietly located near the end of the cul-da-sac making it a very peaceful retreat.
As you pull up you will notice all new windows, doors, siding, and landscaping.
The view from the living room is amazing!
We do have 3 docks that we share with all of our houses, I have never seen all 3 docks full. We have plenty of room for any boat you can tow with you.
The house has 7 queen beds. 3 private upstairs rooms and 2 rooms downstairs with 2 beds each.
*****Rates are based on 8 guests. Additional guest are $25 per night per person. *****
Full bathroom with tub/shower upstairs
Full bathroom with large shower downstairs.
Full size kitchen upstairs furnished with all the basic cooking utensils. If you are cooking for a large group please bring extra or specifics with you. We can not predict what each and every customer will need so we supply the basics and ask you bring the rest. If we stocked the cabinets with everything anyone might need the cabinets would be full, disorganized, and half of it would get stolen over time. Hard plates and dishes provided.
No spices provided, no aluminum foil, no storage bags, no crockpot. Dollar General is 2 blocks away.
Drip style coffee maker, please bring your coffee of choice.
All bed linens, towels, dish soap, dishwasher soap, and hand soap are provided.
All full sized appliances including washer and dryer.
Downstairs has a large kitchenette. Lots of counter space, large fridge, sink, and bar area.
Mediacom wireless internet is provided. They are our only available provider. OCCASIONALLY they go offline for short periods of time. I'm sorry but this is country living. I live with the same internet... if yours is out mine is out..... we can be sad together.... or go outside and do whatever we did before internet!!
!!!!! IMPORTANT INFORMATION. !!!! The living rooms upstairs and down both have new large HDTVs with a ROKU steaming devise on each. Roku is our only form of "TV programing" NO cable, satellite, or antenna. This house has rented for over a year and I have never had anyone complain about the programming abilities. Please read and understand this prior to arrival. No tvs in the bedrooms.
The back deck has 2 tables that will seat 4 each. The downstairs patio has a pic-nic table that will easily hold 6 people.
The water is easily accessible. The bottom is muddy. If you walk just a bit further to the point on the main channel side the bottom is rock and a little nicer for swimming
We have 6 pontoons onsite available for rent. We do recommend reservations in advance. No charge for complete rain outs. If the sun is out you are expected to use and pay for the boat. No half day rentals. The boats are first come first serve. Occasionally things happen and boats must be taken out for service, obviously we try to do this when they aren't rented but if something unexpected occurs we will have to cancel your boat reservation. If you would like to make a reservation please check out our website enjoylakebarkley.com (Click on boats, it will take you to the page to make reservations)
2 kayaks available for rent for $25 daily each.
We do have over flow parking near by. This house has a small parking area.
Att and Verizon work well outside and fair inside. I can not speak for other providers as I haven't personally experienced them.
*Offsite-a 5 person pass to the Lake Barkley State Park fitness center is available with this house. This is where the pool, hot tub, and workout facility is located. Approximately 4-5 miles away. The facility is closed in Sunday. Please check with the park to make sure everything is operating as it should, we are not responsible for any of their maintenance issues.
Pets are allowed if they are under 40lbs. NO exceptions! This house has new hardwood throughout the upstairs and I'd like to keep it new as long as possible. Pets are $100 each with a 2 pet maximum. Pets must be crated when left in the house alone. Please pick up after your pet. DO NOT ALLOW male dogs to hike their leg on ANY landscaping/bushes/shrubs in the neighborhood. Dog urine will cause the plant to turn brown and die. This rule goes for the entire neighborhood. If this accidentally happens please pour water on the area immediately. If I or a staff member observe any of the pet rules broken your deposit will be forfeited. Please do not allow your dog to constantly bark, if you have a constant barker please leave them at home. Our guests come to the lake to have fun and relax without noise distractions. We want the property to be as beautiful for the next guest as it was when you arrived.
With being on the lake there is always a chance of bugs, please understand we do everything we can to keep the outside of the house clean but sometimes it just is not possible. June, July, and August have what is called a Mayfly hatch occasionally, they do not bite and are good for fishing.
I do not visit unless you request I stop by, you are on vacation and I'm sure I'm late for something so I try to give you complete privacy. I am always close or I can have a staff member help if you need something.
Please Please feel free to contact me at anytime. Texting is the best form of communication for me. Calls are welcomed but I sometimes work out of service and voicemails in the area take hours or days to come in.
