Lake house in Pirate's Cove (Pet friendly) with large outdoor entertainment area

Beautiful, cozy lake house in Pirate’s Cove, located in Kentucky Lake in the Jonathan’s Creek area. You will have access to the Pirate's Cove boat launch 2 miles from home or a public boat ramp 3 miles from the lake home. Jonathan Creek offers the best fishing on the lake. Pirate’s Cove resort offers 1.5 miles of waterfront for fishing, hiking, or swimming with gorgeous lake views, shoreline fishing and beach access year-round. Our lake home is 20 minutes from Murray State University, 15 minutes from Land between the Lakes, 40 minutes to Venture Water Park, and 45 minutes from the Quilt Museum.

Our family friendly home is a two-story 1,500 square foot home with 2 bedrooms, a loft, 2 bathrooms and 2 entertainment spaces. The main floor has 2 bedrooms (one with a queen bed the other with a queen and twin bunk bed), a half bath, large family room with entertainment setup and seating for 6-8. The family room also includes 2 large picture windows with awesome view of the yard and a door leading to upper deck. The loft has a queen bed, full-size futon, and TV; the perfect hangout for kids and teenagers. The lower level has a well-appointed kitchen (service for 8), full bath with tub/shower (with washer and dryer) and large dining room with a family style farm table; including TV, plenty of rainy day activities like puzzles, coloring books, board games and card games.

The large 1100 sq ft wraparound lower deck is perfect for entertaining with an outdoor eating area table with 2 outdoor sectionals (seating for 10) and 10 patio chairs, including decorative patio lighting. The deck steps down to a large, quiet, peaceful backyard full of large mature trees, hammock, outdoor games, and fire pit.

Parking: room for 6 large SUVs. The front of the house, has a large carport (large enough for a pontoon boat) and a gravel parking pad that can accommodate 2 large SUVs. A 2nd driveway leading to the back of the house, is least 50’ long and can accommodate an additional 3 large SUVs.

Kentucky Lake is the largest man-made lake east of the Mississippi River. It is also the largest body of water between the Great Lakes and the Gulf of Mexico.

Boat launching from the Pirate's Cove Marina is included in the rental. Boat slips can be rented from Pirate's Cove resort. Please visit the resort website for more resort information on boat slip rental: https://piratescoveky.com The community pool is typically operational from Memorial Day to Labor Day but you must contact that Pirates Cove office prior to your visit to confirm. Please note that the beach is a typical rocky lake beach and not a white sandy Florida beach.

Please also note there are two outdoor cameras on-site at each exterior door of the home to serve as a home security system. 2 Dog limit with a $20 fee per dog. Please contact owner to add more than one dog to reservation.

Weekend stay
Overall we enjoyed our stay. We had a little snag at checkin where the code did not open the property, but the owner quickly reset and provided a new code. Very cute cabin set up and decor, and the thermostat worked great! They have a little ac unit and fan in the crows nest area so that was also comfortable temperature wise. The stairs were exceptionally steep and gave us all a workout to get up and down from the kitchen to the bedroom levels all weekend. Also the only shower is in the lower level with the kitchen, while all the bedrooms are on the main floor and crows nest area.

Great Retreat Spot
Took our FFA Chapter Officers on a retreat to do our yearly planning. The student had a great time and there was so much that they could do in the area. Loved all the board games that they had available for our rainy day.

It was amazing
Our stay here was amazing. The place was clean and the decoration was lovely and very fitting. The runway that led to the lake was great to stroll on and look at the stars. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. I would definitely recommend it.

I want to LIVE HERE!
We arrived to a super clean, well cared for, beautiful lake house. The house was very comfortable, and my boys had a wonderful time outdoors. It was quiet, we sat outside at night admiring the stars, and just really enjoyed the peace. We had a really great stay, and would highly recommend this place!

Great home away from home!
We had a great time staying at this property! The house was just as nice as the pictures, and even exceeded our expectations. The property owner was great, and very prompt when we had an issue with the a/c (which was a very simple fix to get it going again). We had not had a vacation in 12 yrs, and this place was wonderful! We had a very relaxed stay. I would stay here again, and would recommend this rental to anyone wanting a vacation with a home away from home feel!

The trip ended up having more adults then expected, but the host was very accommodating and very easy to communicate. My family loved the house and especially the yard. The yard just made my mother’s day. This was a great home for our first in-state vacation.

Quiet and comfortable
If you want a quiet place to stay that is near beautiful Kentucky lakes this is it. Myself and two of my buddies spent a weekend there. We enjoyed the large deck and we had plenty of space to play bags. The beds were really comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need to make meals. Lindsey was great to communicate with and checked to make sure all was well during our stay.
