Comfortable and relaxing

We had a great stay at Blackfoot Bungalow! The house is comfortable and has most everything you need. The view from the back deck is so peaceful. It's a drop so I am thankful we didn't have little ones with us. The driveway is steep and a little tricky due to the narrow turn from the road and trees lining the drive. There is a small pad off to the side which was helpful. We were able to park a 22ft bass boat attached to a full size truck and a 18ft bass boat on a full size truck with little problem. The screened in porch with hot tub on the back patio is a nice addition. Lots of fishing and shopping! The only thing I would have liked to see is a closet/dresser for clothes in the master. Bought a wrinkle release spray, so problem solved. And maybe add a hand mixer to the kitchen.

Everything that was advertised was spot on! Our entire stay was lovely. The house was immaculate, the check in process was easy. I would definitely go back but maybe when it’s a bit warmer! I highly recommend this VRBO!

Beautiful Home and Location

The location is beautiful and the neighborhood is very quiet. Had to get use to the train horns at night though! The size and layout of the house was perfect for our family of 4. We had an amazing time hiking in Daniel Boone National Forest.

Perfect Place

July-2024, stayed for a week of exploring the Daniel Boone National Forrest on touring motorcycles. The home was clean and just as described. It’s close enough to every need, but just far enough away to feel mostly isolated. The neighborhood was very quiet and yet welcoming. A great place to get away! 5/5 stars….and Casey was attentive to all correspondences. Would absolutely stay again, if back in the area.

We Came Back For Seconds

This is our second time staying here at Casey's place. The layout of the home is ideal for 2 or 3 couples. The home is charming. The beds are very comfortable. I love it. The street is a dead end and perfect for a morning walk. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. The view of the lake is spectacular. We saw blue heron, my favorite. The house is close to everything you could possibly want. The time spent with my family was enhanced by staying here. Thanks Casey

Great home

The home was very comfortable and clean. Everything was so convenient. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and dishes. The appliances were clean and in working order. Now about the comment on the train, it is just faint and relaxing. The beds were clean. The neighborhood is quiet. We did not use the spa tub. We did use the gas grill and it was nice. We ate at Sonny’s and Mellow Mushroom Pizza. We had a boat and spent a lot of time on the lake. We drove over Daniel Boone Forest and used the Keno shooting range. There is so much to do nearby.

Double Wow Factor

When we walked in the front door all our jaws dropped as we said wow! It looked like a magazine cover. Then we went to the backyard and the lake view dropped our jaws again. The house was very clean, comfortable and adorable. The beds are very comfortable. The place is well equipped. I walked the lengthy dead end street in front of the house one morning and never saw a person, car or dog. The neighborhood houses are nice and well kept. It is a peaceful, quiet street. In fact, I would love to live here. Somerset has a fabulous highway system and we enjoyed exploring, shopping and eating out. Casey, the host is top notch. I’m coming back in the spring and fall of next year.

Beautiful home

The home is well equipped with all that you need for a family of four or more. The kitchen is well equipped to ensure that you're not washing cups before the next person gets to have coffee plenty of dishes, pots and pans, silverware. Well equipped plenty of toiletries,trash bags, everything that you need so that you're not having to buy or bring extras. Sufficient bedding, pillows, towels, toiletries. Owner is quick to respond. The beds were a little firmer than expected, making that less comfortable for some. The location is wonderful close to many sites and restaurants etc. The back yard is pretty, with a view of the lake/river. If you have small children might be challenging as the drop off to the lake is steep but otherwise it is a beautiful yard and well equipped or bonfires and sitting outside.

Great stay near Cumberland Falls

My family had a great stay over fall break. We loved the location. Close to restaurants/groceries but easy to get to either side of the lake or go the the national forest/state parks. We had two of the best hikes ever just a 30 minute drive out the door. It is a lovely house on nice property. The house was updated, great showers, and cozy with all the essentials. It was the perfect size for our family of four, but we didn't use the three-season room too frequently as it's cooled off. Do be aware, however, that there is a railroad across the river so there were lots of horns/noise at night. Overall a great place in a beautiful area of the state.

About the host

Hosted by Casey N Maddox

Host profile image
Im a registered nurse living in Indianapolis. I moved to Indiana a few years ago from Charleston SC and deeply miss living by the water. I fell in love with Lake Cumberland from my first visit. Ive been searching for a home and found the perfect one when I saw this! I hope you enjoy the peaceful water, the marinas nearby, and the lovely city Somerset as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

This property is the perfect size, all one level, with updated everything. It is very close to shopping, dining, and entertainment, but still has the feeling of being secluded on the water. The front yard has beautiful plants and areas for birdwatching while the backyard is all about the lake! The water is so peaceful, the decks are fantastic, and the night sky is full of stars.

What makes this property unique

Year round lake views with one level living and a split floor plan. This property is beautiful with great outdoor space. It feels secluded but is minutes to great shopping and marinas
