Perfect for our family!

The home was comfortable and just what we needed for a quick little get away! They had lots of nice little things that made the cabin feel so much more homey and entertaining. There were several games, a well stocked kitchen (including a few snacks), and they even had everything needed for a fire (including wood!). It rained most of the time we were there, so no fire for us, but we loved that it was there if we wanted it. The floors needed a better sweeping and we needed to wipe down the counter before we began prepping things. (We honestly would do that anyway.) It is possible it was vacant for a while after it was cleaned...nothing gross. Furniture was very comfortable. Word of Advice for checking in...Save the code before you drive up to the house. We had very slow internet on our phones so I couldn't get the page to load when we first arrived. Luckily my son in law had a hotspot. No problems after that!! We loved it!

Excellant location to unwind, perfect location. Bedroom are misleading, one bed is a daybed, not suitable for one adult. Two beds, one day bed, one couch,

Perfect space for a family getaway.

The AC went out before we arrived and it was hot. We called owners and they were so quick to get out and check it. Unfortunately, the whole system had to be replaced, but they were as prompt as they could be with the situation.

Wedding weekend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin is well appointed, clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed family time, boating on the lake, a wedding nearby, and relaxing in a peaceful environment. The hosts were responsive to questions we had prior to our trip.

A cozy home away from home

This was a nice, clean, cozy cabin in a great location! My husband and I and our adult kiddos stayed here for six days to attend our family's wedding in Owingsville. It was our first time staying in a VRBO rather than a hotel. It was such a great experience that I don't think we'll ever book a hotel again! A shout-out to the hosts: Thank you for sharing your place and making it such a pleasant stay. We look forward to booking it again!

Would not stay again

The cabin was big and roomy and perfect for our family of 6 , However there were roaches all over the place. When notified owner , they promptly responded and in agreement to exterminate and refund partial payment and weeks later we still haven’t received the refund and the morning after we were still finding live roaches . It’s too bad because the cabin its self and location was very nice .

Lovely cabin, nice amenities!

The kitchen was great for making substantial meals (with the grill, even better) and the fire pit was set up very nice. Having two full baths was a huge plus. Everything was nice and clean, all in working order. Loved it!

Weekend trip with friends

A wonderful little cabin in the woods. A well stocked kitchen and several different games. Also had fun checking out some of the unique artwork downstairs! We enjoyed driving around the lake, stopping several places to take pictures. We really enjoyed our time with friends.

Round 3

This is the third year in a row my college friends and I have come to the cabin on the lake. We love the cabin so much. Becca and Susan are perfect hosts and so accommodating. The cabin is so comfortable and close to the lake and local restaurants. It’s so nice to be able to come back year after year and be together in Morehead where we all met.

Wooded retreat

The cabin was quiet and relaxing. We were all comfortable. The setting is what you expect for a cabin - it's on the woods complete with a fire pit and marshmallows. A nice deck, perfect fire morning coffee and reading.

Perfect...

This cabin was perfect for our stay. So close to the marina and hiking trails. This is a 2 story location. Steps to the kitchen level. Both floors with shower/toilet and bedroom. We love sitting outside listening to nature. Got to hear my owls! There are several games already there ranging in all skills and levels. Will definitely try to come back to this cabin again and again!!!
