About this property

Kentucky Sunrise 18- Greet the Sun As it Rises

Summary:
This fully-furnished 2 bedroom / 2 bath cottage is nestled in the heart of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail & horse farm heaven. Small pets are welcome with a fee. The Kentucky Sunrise Cottage is the perfect getaway for all ages.
Sofa pulls out for additional bed

The Space:
As you drive in, keep an eye out for wild deer, turkeys and summertime fireflies. At the end of your day, bubble away in the hot tub on the private deck while listening to the breeze in the trees and the occasional splashy flop of a big fish that got away in the lake.


This property is managed by a local management company.We work directly with the owners to make your stay relaxing and fun. When you need questions answered you will be talking with Suzanne Jones , who will work tirelessly to answer all your questions.after your Reservation is confirmed we have an additional renters agreement that will direct you sign via our software Guesty . You will sign that promptly. With in that same time frame a message will be sent you from Lynx, you will input your most current information and 3 days before check in you will receive your check in code.

The cottage is located on the top of the hill which overlooks the lake. There are access trails that the resort maintains and we have markers to indicate where to hike. Please bring bug spray during the summer! If you wish to walk to the lake for beach access Taylorsville does not provide that . Taylorsville Lake is a boating and fishing lake, not a swimming lake. You can walk to Taylorsville Lake Marina (taylorsvillelakemarina.com) to the Resort but it is better to drive. You can also visit the state park that is a short 10 minute drive .Visit https://www.stateparks.com/taylorsville_lake_state_park_in_kentucky.html to see all that the state park has to offer.

Our guests have access to all that Edgewater Resort has to offer, including the resort clubhouse by way of reservation, pool in season, children's play area, basketball hoop, volleyball court, shared fire pits by the playground, greenery and lake access.

Because we are located a little outside of town, the major grocery chains are about a 25 minute drive away.However town does have a wonderful grocery store ,pharmacy, auto store, hardware store and many smaller convenience stores like Dollar General.

Louisville is located about 45 mins away. Just type in Edgewater Resort or Taylorsville lake as your start point and enter your destination and it will give you very accurate information.

Peaceful

We stayed here looking for something rural and away from the busy cites for our Bourbon tour trips. It’s locate 30-40 minutes away or closer from all the activities in Louisville and Lexington. And easy to get to any distillery. Quaint little town with some good eats close by. The lake is right there if you have a boat and you can be on it in 5 minutes. Very quiet area. Suzanne was fast to get back to us and solved any minor issues we had. I would stay here again.

Beautiful views and a great cottage

Great cottage in a beautiful area. Quiet and relaxing with a great hot tub. Host was extremely responsive with any questions. Nicely located between all of the distilleries we were visiting during our trip. Cottage was well stocked for all of our needs. Only thing missing was bathroom rugs or floor towels to make it perfect. We would happily stay there again.

Functional and Adorable House on the Lake

Kentucky Sunrise 18 has everything for a nice, relaxing stay. It was about 30 minutes from Buffalo Trace, Bulleit and Four Roses--which was the purpose of our trip. The unit was very clean; plenty of towels and some kitchen gear was provided. The beds were comfy and the layout was an A+ for two couples (each bedroom has a connected bath). The stars at night were so bright to those of us from bigger cities and the area was so quiet! Not too many requirement upon checkout which is always welcome and much appreciated!

Travel Hold UP

Great place and location. Quiet neighborhood. The place satisfied our needs. The only down side was the bugs inside. I know it is country but in bed while sleeping. I found different kinds everywhere. Kitchen sink, bathroom and several in bedroom. did mention on check out.

We had every thing we needed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We especially appreciated the Tiki lanters - I sat outside every night of our stay and wasn't bothered by a single insect!

Cozy and comfy!

Cottage was clean cozy and close to Louisville. Enjoyed closeness to lake but disappointed the view of the lake from the house was obstructed by trees. Would stay again but a different time of year for view. Loved the rocking chairs in front porch and hot tub. Property was really pretty!

Hidden Gem

Edgewater Resort is a very quiet and remote location. It is a gated community, so there is limited traffic. It is one of the best locations if your are planning to tour the Kentucky bourbon distilleries. This cottage has the most comfortable beds for great sleep. The master bedroom has black out curtains, so you can sleep in, if you desire. The property manager was very responsive to questions regarding the cottage. The only negative to this cottage is the SmartTV. If you do not feel comfortable loading your passwords onto a device which you do not own, you are out of luck. We were not able to get local channels, so we went to the Small Town Tavern in Taylorsville for football Saturday. They have live music every Saturday nite and karaoke on Friday nite. Dave is one of the owners and a great guy. Overall, I would highly recommend this cottage and we will definitely rent it again, as we have 31 more distilleries to tour.
