If you have an ATV, you can also bring them as there are excellent terrain and trails to enjoy the views year-round. The lake is also excellent for great fishing and holds records for the largest of three species of fish ever taken in Kentucky: white bass (5 lb.), Buffalo carp (55 lb.), and yellow perch (1 lb., 4 oz). Note: lake levels vary through the year.
The main floor boasts a bright, airy sunroom and open floor plan that is open to the kitchen counter with great space to cook and boardgames for the whole family. The dining room table folds out for ample seating for the everyone to make memories during family meals on vacation.

After dinner, walk down to the lower deck and roast marshmallows over the fire (we provide 2 bundles of firewood - ask us if you need to order more!) or enjoy the views from the hot tub that has Bluetooth speakers - a treat for all senses! The firepit is the perfect campfire landing overlong the lake, as the firepit is surrounded by deck chairs. You won't believe the array of stars & constellations you can view from your private dock.
