Wonderful facility. Beautifully situated on the lake front. Clean and nicely decorated. Great breakfast included with the room. Land Between the Lakes has plenty of interesting attractions. An excellent choice for a family vacation!

Beautiful quiet area near the lake. Spacious cabins with what we needed. Nothing fancy but nice and clean. Mattresses were newer and comfortable. It offers a very nice breakfast cooked to your order. Be sure to put exactly how many in your party to get vouchers. We stay here every year and love it.

It was a beautiful, clean place, with such friendly staff. The cottage I stayed in was quiet and clean. Even when our large group was eating together in the dining room, ordering it all at once, the staff did not become flustered. The grounds were immaculate. I can't wait to visit again next year

This is a very bare bones stay. No extra pillows or blankets. No artwork on the walls. There were sticky traps in the kitchen that had a dead mouse on it in plain view by the fridge.

We were at the resort for a Jeep Jamboree and could not have been happier with both the accommodations and location. The cottage was well appointed and comfortable. The staff at the resort were extremely pleasant and accommodating.

A great place to stay while spending the weekend in the area. About the only things i could complain about were the games in the game room were terribly glitchy or otherwise nonfunctional, leaving the kiddo very disappointed. Also would have been nice to have a frig in the rooms for leftovers from the awesome local restaurants.

Property nice and clean service was good. Food in the restaurant was excellent. The facilities just need some serious maintenance and updating. Was also disappointed in the view from the room. The trees have overgrown to the point you can’t tell you are even lake front.

We had a wonderful stay here. The property was well maintained and quiet. Was within a very reasonable distance of the marina, dining, and lake facilities. The traffic was minimal, and the area was beautiful.

Absolutely recommend!

We were traveling through on our way to Wisconsin, from Florida. Paduca, kentucky is the halfway point. We've always stayed there, until I found this location on hotel's.com it was the best decision, pet friendly, cottages & hotel, dining room and breakfast included.

Get Away

This was an impromptu get away with my sister. Property was clean and staff was welcoming. Beds and pillows were comfortable. View from our window was not good and the windows were pretty dirty. But, there were plenty of other places to get a clear view.
