Southern Lights 56- Brand NEW hot tub and deck! (Decorated for Christmas)

Summary:
Brand New Hot Tub and Deck!! What a View! Standing on the back deck will take your breath away. You can enjoy a BBQ with the family or just relax and enjoy nature.
We have decorated for the Holiday Season!

The Space:
The upstairs master is a complete suite with a king-size bed, a sitting area, a soaking tub, and a private deck from which to enjoy the view.

The second master is located on the main floor and has its own bathroom and access to the back deck.

The third bedroom has two twin beds with a trundle underneath one of them.

Convert the couch to an additional bed in the living room by pulling out the full size bed. Please let us know if you plan to use this bed as we will need to provide additional bedding.

This property is managed by a local management company.We work directly with the owners to make your stay relaxing and fun. When you need questions answered you will be talking with Suzanne Jones , who will work tirelessly to answer all your questions.After your reservation is confirmed we have an additional renters agreement that will direct you sign via our software from Guesty .

The cottage is located on the top of the hill which overlooks the lake. There are access trails that the resort maintains and we have markers to indicate where to hike. Please bring bug spray during the summer! If you wish to walk to the lake for beach access Taylorsville does not provide that . Taylorsville Lake is a boating and fishing lake. You can walk to Taylorsville Lake Marina to the Resort but it is better to drive. You can also visit the state park that is a short 10 minute drive .

Our guests have access to all that Edgewater Resort has to offer, including the resort clubhouse by way of reservation, pool in season, children's play area, basketball hoop, volleyball court, shared fire pits by the playground, greenery and lake access.

Because we are located a little outside of town, the major grocery chains are about a 25 minute drive away.However town does have a wonderful grocery store ,pharmacy, auto store, hardware store and many smaller convenience stores like Dollar General.

Louisville is located about 45 mins away. Just type in Edgewater Resort or Taylorsville lake as your start point and enter your destination and it will give you very accurate information.

At this time we offer our lowest prices so we are not able to extend additional discounts.

We offer smart T.V.s with apps .Please bring your accounts and passwords for anything extra you wish to access. The wifi can be spotty as we are located in a semi-rural area.

We have a small charcoal grill located out in back of the cottage off the steps on the porch.We do not supply provisions for this so feel free to bring your own.

There is no smoking in this house but you are welcome to do it outside away from the cottage and dispose of the waste properly.

Late check outs or early check-ins will be decided on a case by case basis and need to be approved by Suzanne. 3 pm is our goal to get you into the cottage but sometime some things are beyond our control and cause us to run late, please understand we are doing everything we can for a check in at 3pm . This is the exception and not the rule.

We supply towels, linens.We do not supply towels for use outdoors such as for the hot tubs and pool. Please bring your own.We also supply a couple days stay worth of toilet paper, paper towels, soap, dish rags, cleaner, laundry detergent and trash bags. Please bring more of these supplies if you think you may need them.

The fire place the house is only usable in winter months. We turn them off for the season come the first day of spring.

We accept animals at the cottage with a 100 Fee and some restrictions, please see agreement for more information.

If you are bringing a boat or a large motor vehicle please note that you may not drive it past the gate. There are a couple of outlets to charge your boats up by the welcome office if you need them. The outlets are first come first serve basis but we have never heard of anyone having a problem using them.

As mentioned above the bugs are plentiful. The grounds are sprayed and we treat the cottage inside and out. Please take note we are in a rural setting and we are settled close to a lake. We can not control the flying bugs, we do our best to treat and keep the pests away.Sometime we experience high volumes and sometime we have hardly any.Please be aware and bring bug spray.

Perfect place to stay in the middle of the bourbon trail.
Everything was perfect! Beautiful views, clean home, owner was very responsive and helpful with booking and getting us anything we needed. Even sent someone over with a new propane tank so we could enjoy the outdoor fire pit. It was a perfect centralized location to do multiple locations on the bourbon trail. Would 100% recommend!

No hot water. No hot tub. Dirty windows and dishes.
The area is beautiful but this place was not worth it. As nice as the manager Suzanne was she couldn’t do anything and no one apparently makes sure things are clean and working between rentals. I guess the owners are to blame. They sure don’t take care of what they have. The deck was new. The view was nice. It was the only true part of their ad.

Quiet with great view.
Long weekend on the Bourbon Trail with some friends. Was quiet and peaceful while resting and recovering. Coffee on the deck in the morning was lovely. Might be a little far off the Bourbon trail itself, but a few extra minutes of driving as well worth it. Plenty of room for 4 guys.

Spring Break Retreat
Our family chose this location to get away from the busyness that our schedules usually include. It was absolutely perfect! The property felt very much like home and was quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed the scenery and even met a few wonderful neighbors also vacationing at the resort. Overall the trip was perfect and our week provided much needed R&R!

This property was easy to get to and had all we needed for our quick trip! The property managers were responsive during the booking process, and we didn’t need to contact them since we had no issues during our stay - yay! We enjoyed the clean, quiet, and beautiful surroundings along with our dog. We will be back! : )

Perfect for our girls’ weekend
We rented this cabin for a short girls’ weekend getaway (me, my mom, and my sisters). It was perfect. Cabin was well kept, views from the hot tub perfect (perfect for watching the sunset), nearby walking trails, Great Lake view nearby, safe overflow parking, and property manager was very easy to work with. Small maintenance issue arose our first night & she had the handyman out first thing the next morning, he was in and out in 5 minutes and super friendly. While process was hassle-free so we could just relax & enjoy our weekend. Would definitely rent this cabin again!

nice stay
we loved our time here. the location is good, kayak, swings, and location to the lake was great. home was very functional and accommodating, only 2 comments: 1) cleaning needs to be a bit better. a lot of dirt/dust etc. throughout 2) themostat temperature was very eratic. it would automatically seem to restart to 84 degrees.. we were out all day yesterday and came back to house over 80 degrees. same during night. I am sure there is some function that can be managed or over-ruled, however, instructions would be helpful. thank you.

Perfect for Lake Weekend Getaway
This "cottage" is truly a home with everything needed for a weekend at the lake. Plenty of room for 6 adults and has all the amenities you'd find at your own home. Location is beyond peaceful and quite with a beautiful scenic view of Taylorsville Lake from the deck. Would happily choose to rent here again!

Amazing weekend at the lake
We had the pleasure of staying in this lovely cabin over the weekend. We stayed at Edgewater before but this was the perfect cabin for us. The property is at the end of a cul-de-sac which overlooks the lake from both the main floor deck and the upper master deck. There is a path that goes to the lake which was great for my son to fish and for us to take out the kayaks for a break for lunch. Launching from there would be a challenge but if you have a cart, completely manageable and that is a lovely cove without speed boats. However the marina is just a 1-2 min drive down. The hot tub was amazing, kids and adults enjoyed the time relaxing and enjoying e sights and sounds. The house is immaculately clean. I almost always re-clean a rental and did not feel the need to do so here. Management was incredibly responsive and easily reachable. The Mexican restaurant on the main road is also wonderful. I cannot wait to find time to come back to stay. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!
