Lake house in Pirate's Cove (Pet friendly) with large outdoor entertainment area

Beautiful, cozy lake house in Pirate’s Cove, located in Kentucky Lake in the Jonathan’s Creek area. You will have access to the Pirate's Cove boat launch 2 miles from home or a public boat ramp 3 miles from the lake home. Jonathan Creek offers the best fishing on the lake. Pirate’s Cove resort offers 1.5 miles of waterfront for fishing, hiking, or swimming with gorgeous lake views, shoreline fishing and beach access year-round. Our lake home is 20 minutes from Murray State University, 15 minutes from Land between the Lakes, 40 minutes to Venture Water Park, and 45 minutes from the Quilt Museum.

Our family friendly home is a two-story 1,500 square foot home with 2 bedrooms, a loft, 2 bathrooms and 2 entertainment spaces. The main floor has 2 bedrooms (one with a queen bed the other with a queen and twin bunk bed), a half bath, large family room with entertainment setup and seating for 6-8. The family room also includes 2 large picture windows with awesome view of the yard and a door leading to upper deck. The loft has a queen bed, full-size futon, and TV; the perfect hangout for kids and teenagers. The lower level has a well-appointed kitchen (service for 8), full bath with tub/shower (with washer and dryer) and large dining room with a family style farm table; including TV, plenty of rainy day activities like puzzles, coloring books, board games and card games.

The large 1100 sq ft wraparound lower deck is perfect for entertaining with an outdoor eating area table with 2 outdoor sectionals (seating for 10) and 10 patio chairs, including decorative patio lighting. The deck steps down to a large, quiet, peaceful backyard full of large mature trees, hammock, outdoor games, and fire pit.

Parking: room for 6 large SUVs. The front of the house, has a large carport (large enough for a pontoon boat) and a gravel parking pad that can accommodate 2 large SUVs. A 2nd driveway leading to the back of the house, is least 50’ long and can accommodate an additional 3 large SUVs.

Kentucky Lake is the largest man-made lake east of the Mississippi River. It is also the largest body of water between the Great Lakes and the Gulf of Mexico.

Boat launching from the Pirate's Cove Marina is included in the rental. Boat slips can be rented from Pirate's Cove resort. Please visit the resort website for more resort information on boat slip rental: https://piratescoveky.com The community pool is typically operational from Memorial Day to Labor Day but you must contact that Pirates Cove office prior to your visit to confirm. Please note that the beach is a typical rocky lake beach and not a white sandy Florida beach.

Please also note there are two outdoor cameras on-site at each exterior door of the home to serve as a home security system. 2 Dog limit with a $20 fee per dog. Please contact owner to add more than one dog to reservation.

Weekend stay
Overall we enjoyed our stay. We had a little snag at checkin where the code did not open the property, but the owner quickly reset and provided a new code. Very cute cabin set up and decor, and the thermostat worked great! They have a little ac unit and fan in the crows nest area so that was also comfortable temperature wise. The stairs were exceptionally steep and gave us all a workout to get up and down from the kitchen to the bedroom levels all weekend. Also the only shower is in the lower level with the kitchen, while all the bedrooms are on the main floor and crows nest area.

Little Getaway
It was a very cute little home. The pictures make it seem a lot bigger than it is. The layout is odd with the kitchen, shower, and game room in the basement and the living room and 2 bedrooms on the main floor. THE STAIRS ARE VERY DANGEROUS! The “ stairs” or ladder to the loft doesn’t have a handrail and and very steep. The ramp on the side of the home didn’t have any sort of grip tape and was VERY slick. My mother in law and kids fell a few times. Only one keypad worked and it locked it each time with no one to turn it off so it was very annoying to constantly have to put the code in just to go on and off the deck. You also need a visitors pass to use the marina and recreation area however the one that was left in the home was expired. Thankfully the office gave us one pass to hang in one of the vehicles we had. You have to walk a quarter of a mile for a fishing spot a few miles for a spot to swim. The pool at the office has limited hours and costs per person. This house isn’t a good suit for older people or anyone with hip or knee issues. Overall it was a nice stay.

DANGEROUS STAIRS
1st, it was hard to figure out which house it was because there were no numbers on the house. We decided to try the key code hoping we were not trying to open the wrong house. 2nd, THE STAIRS ARE VERY DANGEROUS!!!My daughter fell from the 2nd to the top, landed on her butt on the 4th from the top, falling off the side of the staircase onto her hands and knees on the floor below barely missing falling down the downstairs flight. She is 18 and was holding onto the one railing before she fell. The steps should be called a ladder bc you had to either turn around and climb down or hold the railing and turn sideways and hold the stair after stepping like i did. 100% do not recommend anyone staying up in that room. Besides that it was warm, clean, and comfortable.

Family Thanksgiving gathering
The house was interesting with a quirky setup but met our needs. The dining room table was large enough for our Thanksgiving dinner and the kitchen was convenient to the gathering space downstairs. The kitchen needs some upgrades and more flatware, utensils, etc. The house was very clean with the exception of the outdoor space. The grill wasn’t usable. We traveled with our pet so always looking for pet friendly accommodations with a yard. The yard was not fenced in, which would have been fine but there was a neighbor dog around that made us uncomfortable. The location was great for enjoying the Land between the Lakes hiking area but there isn’t much else if you are looking for more than relaxing at the house. We enjoyed our fire pit daily, the kids loved all the games, and overall it was a good experience. One thing I would suggest is to offer cable or satellite. This is an issue for football fans in the fall. I can imagine this home would be perfect in the Summer due to the great lake location!

Cute summer house
Very cute summer house. Loved the cabin like feel and the decorations are adorable. Very clean and over all fun. My only negative remarks are everything is very low. If you had/need a hip or knee replacement, this is not the right fit for you. All the beds are low, chairs are low except for one, and the tub wall is very high. But otherwise extremely cute!!!!

Cabin was exactly as advertised. Very clean, kitchen well equipped, and very cute inside!! Great location to lake and boat rentals. Only minor negative , pool is closed on Wednesday. We would have rearranged our activity scheduled had we known that , but overall no biggie. Outdoor entertaining area was GREAT !! Communication with owner was PERFECT and punctual. Best communication we have had with and VRBO owner so far. We would definitely recommend and would definitely stay here again. Thank you !

Great time!!!
Plenty of space for a family to spread out and relax. The upstairs and downstairs decks are spacious and relaxing and the fire pit outside is just simply wonderful...The beds were extremely comfortable, and the appliances were updated; one gets the feeling that the owner went out of their way to make you feel welcomed and at home. We had a small issue, but after contacting the owner, she went above and beyond what we expected. We love Benton, Ky and the fishing this year was amazing!!!

Reunion
Very nice location. Gorgeous lot with beautiful mature tulip poplars. Interior was pretty clean, but the outside entertainment area had not been prepped for the season, It appeared. Lots of steep steps, a couple going into home, the staircase from the ground floor down the basement, and the ladder going onto the loft, I think this is very important for renters to know before hand. My mother is 72 and fell a couple of times coming up the front steps of the porch and another time coming up the steps from the basement. The A/C in the loft did not work, and it was really hot up there. I messaged the host 3 or 4 times through the app, asking some questions, I got 1, 7 word response to 1 of my questions, none of the others were answered. Nor did I get a response to the voice-mail I left. My family and I were staying there for a reunion. My brother drives an electric car and was not able to plug it into power, because the only available outlet is under the patio. He did buy a longer extension cord and made it work the next night. I have stayed at numerous VRBOs, and this is my first, less than stellar review, I'm sorry to give it, but I feel it's fair.
