Convenient location for family visit to Land Between the Lakes
Cozy guest apartment with enough space for our family of 6 dogs, with our youngest child using the loveseat as a bed, and our second youngest enjoying the (*not*) "dog bed." Plenty of space downstairs for our dogs to sleep in their crate. Used bottom area as living space with our dogs as well as playing ping pong and foosball table games, and top area as sleeping space for our family (plus simple clean shower/restroom use). Loved the quiet country area the guest house was located in.

Super cute space! The downstairs is a stand alone converted garage with an apartment upstairs. It is right beside the owner’s home, but I never saw them aside from when I was packing the car to leave. The stairs up to the apartment are on the steep side, so definitely not handicapped accessible if that is an issue for you. Loved the human sized dog bed!

Tournament over night stay
Had an archery tournament nearby and didn’t wanted to drive home same day. This property did one night and was affordably priced.Reached out and owner was quick to respond All the pics made this look like a unit that was by itself but it was actually close to the owners home The property owners definitely made it feel very private and I had zero issues. They even parked at their barn to accommodate parking This property was far superior than staying at any hotel

Great place to stay close to Murray State
We stayed for the weekend while taking out daughter to visit Murray State. The space was great and clean and much better than a hotel room.

Apartment above the garage
It was one room that could sleep 7. It was nice and quiet. Had a small game area in the garage, and use of the back yard and patio of the main house. The only thing I believe that could make it perfect would be a night light in the bathroom so you do not have to turn on big light in the middle of the night, and rope lights along the stairs going up to the apartment. this way if it is late an someone is already sleeping others can safely navigate the stairs without the big light.
Everything else was great. There was a very home away from home feel to the place.
