Lakeside Dreams - House Located On Beautiful Nolin Lake In Mammoth Cave, KY

We are located only 8 miles from the north entrance of Mammoth Cave National Park and on Nolin Lake. We are open for rental year around. This 1200 sq. ft. home has 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, living room with sectional, color 65inch flat screen smart TV, WIFI (You Tube TV), DVD, and central heat & air. There is a 20 x 26 patio porch with gas grill and picnic table overlooking Nolin Lake. All that you need to bring is food & lake towels!!

On Nolin Lake you are able to enjoy swimming, skiing and fishing. Other activities nearby include cave tours, museums, golf, hiking, horseback riding, shopping and live theatre.

We are located only 8 miles from the north entrance of Mammoth Cave National Park and only 30 / 45 minutes away from other show-caves and area attractions

Policies: No Smoking, no pets and max number of overnight guest is 8.

Please be advised Nolin Lake is owned by the US Corp of Engineers and is used for flood control. Lake access is best during the summer as the Corp lowers the lake (25 / 30 feet) starting late October. Due to the flood control aspect of the lake, the walk up and down to the water can be steep and some guest might find it difficult.

Boat parking at the dock is no longer available as the Corp of Engineers restricts rented properties from using a permitted boat dock. There is a boat ramp 1/4 mile away that you can launch and recover your boat very easily with parking at the ramp (parking can be limited on weekends).

Swimming is available off the shoreline (note rocky and deep), or at the boat ramp, or one of the nearby public beaches (Nolin Lake State Park).

A nice 3 day stay

The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had all the items needed to make any sort of meal, the internet worked well.It may be my fault…but I didn’t understand how little access we would have to swim the lake.

Relaxing Weekend

My teen sons, my Mom, and I enjoyed the peaceful lake view from the covered deck, making S’mores in the fire pit, and the three spacious bedrooms with personal bathrooms. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking and location close enough to explore Bowling Green & Mammoth Cave. I would stay here again.

Nolan Lake House Review

Lovely location and easy communication with host. Listing a bit outdated on VBRO, ie we never could find the ironing board) and google maps references had wrong address. Sleeps 8 but we did not see dishes for 8. Cooking utensils were flimsy. Hot water heater is small, having to wait between showers. Overall 3.4 to 4 star. Would stay there again.

Overall Great

Everything was amazing and as expected. But have to state, I’m disabled and was denied my service dog (medical alert) which is kind of illegal and therefore didn’t have such a great time. She’s not a pet, she’s the only thing that keeps me safe and from unexpectedly passing out and/or falling and getting hurt. I’ve never been denied her in the four years since she was given to me. Hope they do their research and the next disabled person isnt denied their right to have a service animal. “No pet” policies dont apply to service animals as they are a medical necessity not a pet.

Propped on the steep side of an peninsula overlooking a reservoir-lake finger we saw deer, squirrels, and raccoons and thought it the perfect place to enjoy the company of, and play time, with good friends.
