Guest Reviews:

- "I don’t even know where to begin because it’s absolutely an awesome place to stay. It was so clean, comfortable, and the Evans family were welcoming, friendly, and always available if needed. Our stay at The Porch Lovers Paradise will always remain in our hearts. The porch was great for hosting a cookout with my family in honor of my mom who recently passed away. There was plenty of room for us to hangout on the porch and spend quality time together. The beds were extremely comfortable. Our little fur baby loved running around outside. We didn’t want to leave. We will be back. This is the place to stay and make special memories with friends and family."

Rough River Lake House conveniently located by Axtel Marina and Nicks Boat Dock
House
Hardinsburg, Kentucky, USA

The house has four bedrooms, three full baths and one half bath. It can sleep 12 people, with bedding available for an additional 5 people upon request, so it’s perfect for that big family or group of families. It has an open floor plan with a fully functional kitchen and dining room, that has seating for 10-12 at a time. The basement still has a bar area that is unfinished, but there is a great game room for entertaining in the evening or on rainy days! Nick’s Boat Dock does rent pontoons, which is an option for those without a boat, or you could head less than two miles down the road to the north fork campground beach to enjoy a couple days of just swimming.

Full Disclosure: There are security cameras located on the perimeter of the house for monitoring the property, since this property is in a relatively rural area. These cameras are only reviewed when there has been an issue with the property or a specific group. There are also 146 steps to get down to the water.

The home was built with our family and kids in mind, so I'm sure it will be perfect for your family and friends.

Guest Reviews:

- "We had a group of 11 friends and family scattered across the country who were seeking a somewhat centralized location to gather and enjoy some low key time together. This property fit the bill perfectly! From the earliest planning stages (a full year beforehand) to while we were actually onsite, Brandon was in regular communication with us to address any and all concerns or questions that we had (and things did get complicated with date and guest count changes). So absolutely first rate in that regard. The property itself is beautiful and extremely functional- it should meet the needs of any group ranging in size from 6 to 12 people (more if you don't mind using pull out sofa-beds, etc.). Slight ding on the cleanliness at check-in due to some things the cleaning service had missed, but I am confident these were an isolated occurrence. Overall, a wonderful VRBO experience!"

- "home is great, very clean. Option to rent golf cart or ATV would be helpful. fire pit awesome, pool table fun, beds very comfortable." - "This house was so cute and cozy! The location is perfect and really easy to find. The neighborhood/ street thats its on is quiet and safe. Everyone we passed waved as we went by. The house has everything you need for cooking and cleaning up. We didnt need anything extra at all. The house is close to the water and had a great view. Its blocked by trees so you dont hear any noise but you can still see the lake. We didnt even have enough time to take advantage of all the amenities the house offered but there were lots of games and movies. Theres kayaks and fishing gear. Definitely coming back with my kids soon. They will have a blast. Plus the host was super friendly and full of information and advice. Book this place before someone else does!"

Guest Reviews:

- "Really enjoyed our stay. Clean and well kept. Quiet and secluded. Recommended." - "Wonderful scenic and relaxing place!" - "The cabin was great, and the location very nice. The view of the lake, especially at dawn and dusk is especially beautiful. The cabin itself was very clean and well equipped. It did get very cold in the evenings and night, especially at the far end of the house, but we also had a week of rain and cold, which is really nobody’s fault. We turned down the AC a bit and that helped. We made good use of the provided grill and the nice kitchen. The big porch with the wicker furniture was my favorite place, but unfortunately due to the weather, we couldn’t make much use of it. I do think that in the ad for the property it could be made clearer that there is no access to the lake. Our host Mitch was very communicative and answered all my questions promptly and detailed. He gave us more tips of what to do than what we had time for! There’s not much in terms of going out to eat in the area, but we like to grill and cook, so we didn’t have any problems. Dave’s pizza is not far, and their pizza is great, and the staff fantastic."

The homeowner was very responsive to questions. We will want to rent this home again in the future!" - "We had a wonderful time. Best stocked kitchen we’ve ever had. We had 15 there (4 generations) and had plenty of room, even for us to have family meals at one table, and things to do to keep us busy. The owner is very responsive and accommodating. The only downfall is there is no bathroom downstairs. Lots of wildlife to see. Again, we had a wonderful time. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us."

Guest Reviews:

- "Great place. Beautiful views. About 15 mins from laurel branch beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! " - "I'm not sure we have ever stayed anywhere that was so peaceful and quiet. While the view of the lake from "Rough River Lake Cliff Top Retreat" would probably be better in Summer, the view was still beautiful. From this cozy, casual home, we could see pretty sunrises, even more colorful sunsets, and people fishing from boats on the lake. There is no access to the lake, however, as the home is on a small but steep cliff. But the state park is only a short drive away. We enjoyed the rockers and other well-made sturdy furniture on the deck. We took walks down the quiet rural street. The unit was well stocked and had everything we needed. Plenty of hot water for showers. Wi-fi was good. My daughter had no problem streaming movies."

Guest Reviews:

- "We really enjoyed our stay at this house. Everything was very clean, well decorated and very cozy. Wish the lighting would have been a bit brighter. The kitchen was well stocked. We really appreciated all of the tupperware containers, to store leftovers in. The lake level at rough river was low. There was also a lot of floating debris at certain times, making it hard to boat or tube. I would suggest putting a note in the manual about what day trash day is, along with providing one or two more trash cans. We had to take quite a bit of trash home with us because it wouldn't fit, and we didn't want animals getting into it. We moved the fire pit out from under the deck when we used it, so we didn't catch anything on fire. You might want to suggest that to other visitors. Also, the grill didn't work, which put a wrench in several of our meals. I hope that didn't sound too negative, over all it was a great family lake trip! Many memories were made!"

Guest Reviews:

- "The beds were very comfortable. We loved the outside space on the property. Easy check in and check out procedures. Would recommend." - "Really a beautiful little vacation spot! The location was on a cute little private road- Apple Maps did not send us to the right place but the neighborhood was easy to navigate. Outside area was awesome; the fire pit was perfect at night but we spent most of our time enjoying the porch. Inside was clean, full of character and very modern. All the appliances were impressively new and nice. No hot tub but it was honestly an afterthought once we walked down to the river."

Shopping and restaurants are 20 min away. The space was very clean and well stocked. There were not only gorgeous fluffy towels, but a few throw blankets for lounging in the living room. Thee ed master shower is huge- with plenty of hot water! The hosts are super sweet- leaving us snacks, stocking hand soap, and stocking the kitchen with the basic supplies to make a meal. The beds were comfortable, and each room had its own air unit controlled by remote. The outside property is beautiful and there’s so much save for children or pets to run. You want to stay here.
