Wonderful Wedding Weekend Getaway!

The Lakeside Cottage was the perfect place for us to stay for a family wedding in Smiths Grove, KY. Thirty minute drive to the beautiful Tayvin Gardens. We loved the peaceful lake setting at the cottage and staying with our daughter and son-in-law. We all enjoyed the big screen porch: reading, drinking coffee, birdwatching, and chatting. The cottage had everything we needed and more to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We felt right at home.

Great cottage

Stay at the house was great. We had a small issue with the air conditioner but the host was very prompt to fix it and even offering to comp a day or pay for dinner. While the AC was being repaired, they were more than generous and we loved our stay.

A Perfect Getaway

In town over Christmas to visit family. This well appointed home on the lake was as much a personal retreat, as it was a vacation rental. It had everything we needed and much more than we expected. There are VRBO owners, and then there are intentional and thoughtful hosts. Thanks for all the attention to detail and warm hospitality this Christmas. We’ll be back. The Hughes’ - Cincinnati, Ohio

Relaxing, peaceful Thanksgiving getaway

Great cottage! The view was the first thing we saw when we opened the front door. It was amazing! Cottage had everything we needed and then some. Even though it was November, the weather was mild enough for us to dine on the screened-in porch for our holiday meal. We hope to come back sometime with family. Great stay and highly recommend!

We are retired, we do many of these and here our input

You know about the electrical stuff. Everything else was really wonderful. We do have two suggestions. The first one to us was a big thing. Your house was spotlessly clean. The porch screens were not. The other thing was about the cutlery. There were plenty of spoons and forks but only 4 knives. That was a problem. We have found more houses going to thrift stores and buys wide varieties of good quality cutlery that are crazy cheap and fun! Just an idea! Thank you for sharing your home with us.
