Great property!

Perfect spot near Mammoth Cave! Clean, comfortable, great amenities. The fire pit was perfect for evenings and the check in/out process was seamless. Property is as beautiful as the pictures. If the river crossing is open it’s a quick jaunt to the park, but the 40 minute drive wasn’t horrible if you plan for it (which we did). It was actually nice to be a little off the heavier tourist path.

I believe everyone is doing the best that they can. This property was not perfect and the owners could do a lot more to make a few improvements. So I would like them to take this as just feedback so they have the opportunity to improve what is almost a really great thing. Before you go remind people to look into the green ferry, furthermore please give people the code 2-3 hours before arrival, we got in a traffic jam which was the only reason why we didn't need it at 4pm otherwise I was going to be sitting at the property without a code. All the beds squeak and I would never allow anyone to sleep in that upper bunk the they are so wobbly it does not seem safe to have anyone sleep on it.Trash was outside not a very good first impression. The cookware is not something anyone should cook on, invest in some clean/safe/new cookware. The drawers in the kitchen where you keep things all dirty, I can't tell you how that made us feel, when we found dirty items, almost every time we needed to use anything including a dirty coffee pot. Create a solid system so these things are not missed when you clean. The whole house needs a deep clean. I found may areas with hand prints, layers of dust. This house will and did smell of stale smoke, people who owned this before were smokers. We had to open windows to get the air to move around so we didn't smell it. Also why does the house not have front screens? This place was not all bad, I think they will improve, and can. Like I said nice people.

We wanted a nice relaxing weekend together and that is exactly what we got. Spacious living inside and out. Bob the cat was an added bonus! He is the sweetest Boi. He likes bacon and bread and def scratches behind the ears and belly rubs! We will be reserving again in the future.

Relaxing retreat

The house was beautiful - well designed and well stocked with everything we needed for our 3 night stay in the area. We easily accessed the Mammoth Caves, the Corvette Factory and museum in Bowling Green, the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, Bardstown and Louisville from this location and also managed to have a little time for relaxation in this cozy house! (We were 7 adults)! Loved the well stocked kitchen for cooking multiple meals.

Beautiful!

This is the cutest house, right on the morthern edge of Mammoth Caves Narional Park. Easy access to the visitors center and trailheads via a ferry that will take vehicles across the river. We also made a 1 hour drive to Bernheim Botanical Gardens and Research Forest. Loved Mammoth and Bernheim. I highly recommend this rental property!

Mammoth Cave Rental

We had a great stay at this property! It was beautifully decorated, clean, and so spacious. My kids loved watching the fireflies on the back porch and spending time with the kitties that would visit often. The ferry was down, but we made the most of the drive into town and enjoyed a full day. Tabitha was so helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Thanks for the hospitality!

Great house - ferry usually doesn't run

This was a great house for our family of five + two grandparents. It has a lovely firepit, is newly remodeled, and has good AC. The property manager was really responsive, and she even sent someone out to tighten some screws on the bunk bed when we needed it. Kitchen was well-stocked too, and they have a TV with roku and good internet. Everything we needed! My only knock on the house was that the top bunk mattress is really uncomfortable. I like a soft matress, but it's just bad. That's super minor - we absolutely love the place. We didn't fully realize that the trip to Mammoth Cave vistors center goes from 20 min to 45 min if the ferry is not running. Or at least, we didn't realize how infrequent the ferry runs. We were told to just assume it will never run in the summer b/c of low water levels. Now sure why the park doesn't build a bridge! Thanks for a great house and excellent communication.

Absolute Gem!

This little piece of heaven in Kentucky is an absolute gem! To begin, Mark and Tabitha were great hosts. We did not meet them in person but via messaging, they were super. The house itself is much more spacious than it appears and far exceeded expectations. We stayed at four properties on our summer vacation and this one was the favorite. The house was immaculately clean, beautifully appointed and on a wonderful acreage. We loved it and couldn’t wait to get back every evening to enjoy the fire pit. We bought an ATV bed of firewood from sign in the yard without realizing it was the neighbor down the way. He did bring some friends along to check out who was renting the house, but they were very friendly and not a bother. The cat that thinks it owns the place was super sweet and we all enjoyed seeing it every morning and evening when we returned. Mark and Tabitha left a nice little hospitality gift for us upon arrival - which was totally unnecessary but a nice touch. A previous crabby reviewer complained that it was not as advertised and the beds were creaky. Okay, the beds were all a bit creaky, but other than that - it was BETTER than advertised. Everything was great! Looking back, it exceeded our expectations and was more than worth the price. If this place is available for your dates, look no further and book it.
