About this property

Great two-story lakefront home on Jonathan Creek – Whether it’s fishing, boating, relaxing, or just enjoying time with family or old friends, you’ll find what you’re looking for here. It is situated on 1.5 acres with over 300 feet of shoreline. You’ll have the shared use of the owners’ dock. (Weekly Rental: Saturday p.m to Saturday a.m.)

This home is fully furnished with two bedrooms (one king bed & two twin beds), a full-bath, kitchen, dining area, and living room on the main floor. Downstairs there is one bedroom with bunk beds and a full-bath; a daybed, “coffee bar”, foose ball table, and laundry facilities. The downstairs opens on to an outdoor deck with a porch swing, table and chairs.
On the extended lower deck area, overlooking the dock and lake, are lounges, tables, a charcoal grill, and for cool evenings a fire pit.

The view of the lake from the house or decks is spectacular!

It is just minutes to one of nature’s best wildlife preserves and national recreation areas – U. S. Forest Service’s Land between the Lakes. Kentucky Lake is known for its crappie and bass fishing. It is home of the National Guard College Fishing finals and the National Finals for the FLW Bass tour. Boat rentals are available nearby. Kenlake State Park, located just a few miles away in Aurora, is home to the Hot August Blues Festival each year as well as other festivals and musical events. There are a number of restaurants within easy driving distance – everything from BBQ, delicious hamburgers, seafood, and fine dining.

Annual vacation on the water

Ruth is an Excellent hostess! Her home has a beautiful view of the water and being able to drive to the dock is a hugh plus because the hill, while pretty to look at, is steeper than it looks. The kitchen has everything you need and the living room is cozy with very nice furniture. I loved the TV streaming, which is not something I have at home! The basement has fun stuff for the kids and i played my first game of checkers on the game table downstairs. I lost, but it brought back childhood memories! The fire pit was a perfect way to end the evening. My husband fished everyday and loved it! We would definitely rent from Ruth again and again! Also very private and the neighborhood seemed to watch out for each other.

Best view on the lake

Incredible view while staying at this house! Has its own boat slip. The owner was so nice and considerate. She made sure we had no problems and the hospitality was so welcoming!!! We didn’t want to leave. This house has 2nd story balcony overlooking the lake - where we had coffee every morning. The lower level opens to an incredible deck/patio fire pit area also overlooking the lake. There is a paved road so you can drive down to the boat with all your stuff. Some people walked the hill back to the house but after boating all day I chose to drive back up. So easy and convenient. Would highly recommend and plan to stay there again!

Fishing and friends

Very nice property. Easy access. Nice view. Comfortable and functional. Fishing was good and the dock allows easy access and convenience to boat and lake locations. This is our second visit and owners continue to maintain and improve the property.
