About this property

Lake House Luxury with Water & Woodland Views

This 4500 SQ FT custom designed and amish built waterfront lake home has 4 bedrooms, Kentucky themed decor throughout the house with 5 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms and sleeps 10. A sleeper sofa in the loft area adds space for 2 more. High end appliances. The kitchen is well stocked with countertop appliances and tools for cooking & baking.
The basement has 10 foot ceilings and a kitchenette area with a countertop height island. New High Efficiency Washer and Dryer along with On-Demand Tankless Water Heater.. There is plenty to do in the Kentucky themed man cave with large screened TV, billiards, full size electronic game machine and a copper top card table for games.
The house sits on 1.2 acres high on a cliff overlooking the Nolin River lake. This home is one of a kind with endless views of Nolin Lake, rolling hills and breathtaking sunsets from multiple decks. It is conveniently located 13 miles from Mammoth Cave National Park, 70 miles south of Louisville, and 110 miles north of Nashville. The Kentucky Bourbon Trail or Churchill Downs-Kentucky Derby can provide a bluegrass state experience. If you are looking for a getaway for boating, canoeing, fishing or just relaxing while enjoying views of the lake and wildlife, our walkout on the water is the perfect place. Special attractions; bald eagle and blue heron birdwatching. Bears have also been spotted within a three mile radius.
Nolin Lake was designed for flood control and the water levels draw down starting in mid October. Nolin River is still accessible for fishing, hiking and treasure hunting around the bank from November through March. The lake levels start to rise to summer pool in mid March. Search for the waterfall in the cove behind our property that is only visible when the lake level drops.
This property is monitored by exterior security camera's 7x24 on all sides and levels.

Excellent!
Wow, the house was amazing! And we did so many activities in the area. We did several cave tours, Corvette museum, hikes and just exploring. Every morning I sat out on the porch and had my coffee. And the game room kept all of us busy. Most of the group enjoyed the pool table. I loved the Pac Man. Would absolutely recommend this home.

Great destination for a friend’s fall trip.
We had a fantastic stay. We had everything we needed. The house is spacious , with lots of sitting space in the living room and dinning areas. It was clean and well maintained. The hosts were accessible and very easy to work with. We would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous Time
I've stayed at MANY VRBOs, and most have been excellent, but this property is the best one yet! The location is great to visit Mammoth Cave, Makers Mart, Bourbon Trail, Jim Beam, Louisville, Corvette museum, Lincoln's birthplace and boyhood home and many other attractions. The house was fabulous and we were lucky to have our stay during peak fall colors. The kitchen has two refrigerators, and is the best stocked kitchen I've had so far. The bedrooms were comfortable and the master bedroom has a screened sitting room with an outside gas fire ring. The home is kept is maintained extremely well and appears to be a new build but is over ten years old. The showers are large and the shower heads are like new. A wrap around deck is perfect for outdoor relaxing. Many board games, horse shoes, corn hole, pool table, pac-man and others. Over all it's a 10, a true gem.

About the host

Hosted by Ron and Kathy

Host profile image
We have been married 39 years and have three adult children, a son-in-law, a new daughter-in-law and three grandchildren. We live in the Louisville area and both worked as technology professionals but are now semi retired. We designed and built our dream lake house in 2015. We consider this home a secondary residence for our family. We take great pride in our lake property. We keep it extremely clean and comfortably furnished both inside and out. We love the Nolin Lake community and all the activities that go along with living on the lake. We hope you enjoy your visit to Nolin Lake and Mammoth Cave National Park.

Why they chose this property

The property sits on a cliff high above Nolin lake. Come & enjoy the outdoor living space with two screened in porches, gas fire pit, in ground fire pit with fire wood and two tables that seat 8. Private deck on the 2nd level.

It is a relaxing get-a-way but is also close to attractions of interest for the whole family. Theme Parks, water parks, & Beech Bend race track, Abraham Lincoln's Birthplace National Park, cave tours at Mammoth Cave National Park, Cave City, Kentucky Down Under Zoo, Lost River Cave, Corvette Museum, Horse back riding, trail parks, frisbee park and golf courses. There are Amish stores & country stores along with restaurants as close as one mile. You can see Wax Marina from the deck. Bourbon Trails and Churchill Downs are an hours drive away.

Access down to the lake for fishing or swimming in the "No Wake Zone" is partially through a natural path managed by the US Corp of Engineers as are all shorelines at Nolin Lake. This path has to remain undeveloped to stay compliant with the Corp's regulations.

The walk back to the house from the water is all up hill. We are in our 60's and don't have a problem with it but for those with physical challenges it may be difficult due to the grade.There are labeled pictures of the path on our site. If the climb is a challenge we recommend going to Iberia Beach and Boat Ramp at Nolin Lake only a 3 mile car drive from the lake house. It has a clean sand beach and is an easy walk to the water.

The lake was built for flood control by the US Corp of Engineers in the 1960's. The Corp begins water level draw down in mid to late October every year. Once the water reaches winter pool only the river bed allows for boating. You can still fish the river from the lake bed. When the lake bed behind the house dries we love to go adventure seeking for treasures new and old. Winter here at Nolin Lake is great for hiking and metal detecting buffs will love winter here. Never a bad time of year in Kentucky.

What makes this property unique

Outstanding sunset views are your's for the taking while sitting high on the lake cliff or on our decks. The house has an upscale decor with lots of room inside and out.

It is located In a small private community. Security cameras and ring door bells are used to monitor the exterior of the house 7X24. Noise monitoring devices are used to protect you and the peaceful neighborhood from disturbances.
