About this property

Lakeside Cabin, Fishing, Golf/Hiking Nearby, Canoe & Kayaks Onsite, Pet Friendly

If you are looking for a place to get away from it all with family or friends, then this cabin rental is perfect for you! It is nestled on the bank of a 110-acre watershed lake (Banker's Lake) in western Kentucky. The rental is also pet friendly and only requires one small additional fee.
Fishing, canoeing and kayaking are all just steps away from the porch of this rustic getaway. If you enjoy golf, hiking, or just the outdoors in general, you could not ask for a better place. Relax and read a book while enjoying beautiful views of Banker's Lake or just pull up a rocking chair on the front porch and enjoy the peaceful sounds of nature as your daily stresses melt away.
This rental is conveniently located just 10 minutes away from Pennyrile State Park and only an hour drive from Land Between the Lakes (Kentucky and Barkley Lakes). It is less than 10 miles from Burdoc Farm (wedding venue), so it is a great place for out of town wedding guests.
The cabin comes furnished with appliances, dishware, gas grill, satellite television (living room only), towels, and all necessary linens. It is equipped with a whole house on-demand hot water heater so no worries about running out if hot water. There is also a fire pit in the yard (firewood provided) should you want to enjoy roasting hot dogs and marshmallows with friends and family.
NOTE FOR PET OWNERS - If you plan to bring more than two pets, please contact owner for a discussion about additional charges for those extra pets.
We (property owners) currently live in the separated walk-out basement apartment of this home. We are a recently retired couple and try to be helpful, especially when making sure guests enjoy a wonderful experience. We are willing assist guests with life jackets for kayaks, getting them set up for a fishing, etc, but we are also very mindful that guests are there to get away, so we keep to ourselves and only interact when requested.
Cabin Layout: 1st Floor - Open floor plan with living Room, kitchen, table for 8 that all run together. Then there is a dining room (6 seat table), master bedroom with queen bed and twin bed, in suite full bath, 1/2 bath located in foyer, laundry room with washer/dryer. 2nd bedroom with full size bed and full bath. 2nd Floor - Bedroom 1 with queen size bed and twin bed. Bedroom 2 with full bed, built in full size bunk bed on top and twin bed on bottom, & hidden twin bed in kneewall nook (cool little spot for kids). Loft area bunk bed with full size bed on bottom & twin size bed on top and a twin daybed. Full bathroom.

Fantastic family getaway!

The rural location and beautiful views were perfect for our 15 person family trip for my Mom’s birthday. The property owners were extremely friendly and helpful. They were responsive to all communication almost immediately. We had such a great time and would definitely stay again!

Feels like home

This place is wonderful for a family gathering away from all of the craziness and it has everything you will need in preparing dinners and such. I will state that the playground and beach area should not be listed as the playset is old, not safe to use, and there really is no beach area. I am a lake person but will will not want to jump in that lake, it's more for the calming scenery while sipping on your morning coffee which is great on that huge back porch. Nothing fancy, just a place that feels like home or visiting your Aunt Betty that awaits you with fresh baked cookies. We really enjoyed our stay here and would rent again.

Beautiful lake retreat

We will definitely return. Absolutely incredible property and very spacious house with all the necessities. House is decorated top to bottom with antiques and various decor which was fun to discover during our stay. The back deck overlooks the lake and is very scenic. Very quiet retreat!

A quiet peaceful setting for our family to spend valued time together!

Our purpose as a family of 15 was to spend quality time together. The quiet woods setting of this property created that for us. It was fine that there wasn't a lot of "activities" to fill our time.....the shelves of books & many cozy seating arrangements called us to enjoy simple things....letting any busyness back home....soaking in the appreciation of our relationships. Our hosts were excellent in every way!

Nice cabin, terrible lake

Property listing not accurate at all. We had no WiFi all week, power outage for a couple hours and the worst was the lake. Advertised as a nice fishing and swimming place. No part of this lake can be swam in or fished in. Filled with moss and seaweed like we have never seen before. Had to get a fishing license to go to another lake to fish. Then got lake “service charges” of $206 with no explanation. Beautiful cabin but absolutely would never recommend this rental.

Loven lake life

It was perfect for my family. 3 grandson 10, 8 an 3 an they loved the lake play area! They caught fish so much they got bored. They enjoyed the canoe an They loved hearing all the stories about the antiques.They even learned how to play chess!!! The house is like museum. An tons of beds lots of seating inside an out. An very close to pennyrile state park. Theres 2 fire pits we didn’t get to use but the land an house is so beautiful, peaceful an we loved all the decor. We could have stayed at the house the whole time. Will deff plan a return trip.

Great place to stay with lots of bonus amenities

This was a perfect place to stay for our extended family of 15. We loved being right on the lake and having immediate access to a kayak and several canoes as well as fishing poles. Lots seating throughout the house and outside. Perfectly situated hammocks, rocking benches, etc for adults to relax AND see the kids playing in the water. A cozy Fire pit area with lots of seating and they generously provided wood for our campfire. There was even a good number of camping roasting sticks for hot dogs/s’mores, a family sized griddle, etc. A little of something for everyone. The house was very clean, but the only downside was that it was somewhat cluttered. There are two wood guns (Think red rider) immediately as you enter the home with one that is easily accessible to children. It can easily be moved somewhere else if that is an issue for your family. There are so many books, games, amenities and decor that there wasn’t any dedicated pantry space to store our food items. We made do with a desk in the side dining room. Just come prepared for not a lot of counter space & you’ll be delighted with everything this place has to offer. The owner was very friendly and a great communicator. I would highly recommend staying here.

Perfect Place for Families

So easy, and beautiful. The house is open in the middle. So that even in the kitchen or upstairs you can join in on the conversation. But if you wanted quiet time you could simply retire to a bedroom. There were quirky touches inside and out that made for good photo ops and conversation. We loved kayaking and canoeing on the lake and watching the fish and geese. Our dog loved having the open space to run. The hosts were both kind and helpful. Great place. 5 stars. A plus.
