Here Are a Few Kind Words from our Past Guests:
"Everything about our stay at Rachel’s lakehouse was wonderful. Beautiful scenery, ideal location to the Ark and Creation Museum. Extremely kind and responsive host. A warm and inviting home. We loved it."
"My family and extended family had a great time staying at The Kentucky Lake house for our weekend visit. Beautiful views and cozy furnishings, with plenty of sleeping options. It was wonderful to have a fully equipped kitchen for cooking dinners and easy breakfasts. Our host went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. We really appreciated that it was pet friendly too. Would definitely recommend to others"

About the host
Hosted by Rachel H
My love for creating memorable experiences for guests started at the relatively young age of 16 when I got my first job as a cleaner and server at a large bed and breakfast in my hometown in central Canada. I have an undergraduate degree in Interior Design and now dedicate my time to creating commercial interior spaces, but I have found a new passion for short term rentals. Some proceeds from our rental goes to missions that we believe in.
Why they chose this property
The minute we drove down towards the lake we fell in love with the area. It's such a peaceful location - a place where you can unplug and get some real rest. We hope you're able to rest, relax and enjoy God's beautiful creation!
What makes this property unique
With lake views from almost every area of the house, the connection to water and the peacefulness the lake provides will make your stay at our home memorable.
A portion of each stay in the Kentucky Lakehouse goes towards building homes for families in need in El Salvador. We're passionate about giving back and we're thankful you're able to help contribute to our cause!
