Cottage in Harrodsburg

Paradise Cottage Enjoy lake Views and Lake Access!

LindaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Our stay was a week at the end of May 2025. The Cicadas were loud and active. The heavy rains and high lake levels caused logs and debris to basically block our dock so we couldn’t use the provided kayaks or paddle boards… just Mother Nature. We did enjoy a couple of bonfires in the evenings with plenty of firewood provided. S’mores were also supplied along with forks. There were a lot of sitting areas on the porch and decks and yard. The cottage was clean with a spacious living room and kitchen, lovely decorated with plenty of dishes and linens supplied. There is a dollar store and an ice-cream store 10 minutes away. All in all our family enjoyed this cottage.

Lakefront Paradise with Dock

MichaelRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Quick little weekend to explore the bourbon trail. In the middle of all of it, situated on a peaceful lake. Very responsive, photos depicted the place to a “t”, and would certainly stay here again if in the area.

Lake Break in No Wake

BraedenRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We loved the place and Anessa was a great host. Very easy to reach out to if we needed anything and the house was great. Only thing that I noticed is that the house said it sleeps 10 and that would be multiple people bunking up in rooms with 2 beds so could get a bit crowded. We had 7 so it worked out for us. Ultimately we loved the place and host was amazing! Would highly recommend

Endless Summer Lakeside Oasis & Boat Rental

ChristineRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and smelled good upon arrival. Beds were VERY comfortable and bedding super soft. The giant walk-in shower in the big bedroom was the bomb with the oversized shower head. We really liked the screened-in porch (with a tv!) The property was private and quiet. We are older folks who didn’t attempt the very steep stairs to the water, but the view was great from the deck. We enjoyed antique shopping in Danville and Harrodsburg. Cattleman’s, Drakes and the Red Rooster were all good restaurants. An over all great stay!
