LUXURY Timber Lake Lodge - Nolin Mammoth Cave+View

Timber Lake Lodge is a finely appointed timber 6-bedroom framed home sitting on a PRIVATE gated 40-acre wooded estate with DIRECT access to one of the most beautiful & serene coves in all of Nolin Lake. With everything that Timber Lake Lodge has to offer, there is nothing of this caliber available for rent at Nolin or any other lake in the state of Kentucky. The home is located in the middle of Nolin Lake, giving you the best access to explore. The short path to the lake is directly in front of the house.

This luxurious home was designed for entertaining & relaxing in serenity. Enjoy the open plan kitchen, living and dining, breathtaking woodwork, 2-story cupola, stunning hardwood floors, indoor and outdoor stone fireplaces, and covered deck and patio. There is a king bedroom & ensuite on the first floor, and a king bedroom and ensuite in the basement. On the second floor, two queen bedrooms share a jack and jill bathroom. The wonderfully appointed bunk house with loft sleeps 8+ and is located above the garage.

If a rustic cabin lake vacation is your dream, but luxurious accommodations are more your style, you will bask in the respite of this exquisite home located on forty acres at the end of a secluded and serene cove on Nolin Lake. This is the only home in the entire gated property, located just six miles from Wax Marina, and only nine miles from Mammoth Cave National Park. From the gorgeous interior, step outside to the IPE, exotic hardwood constructed deck to enjoy nearly 750 square feet of covered porch with built-in outdoor stone fireplace, grill and large dining table. Beautiful forested views surround you, and yet the gentle sloping path to your private dock on Nolin Lake is directly in front of the home. A swim ladder from the dock gives you access to the private cove, located directly across from a nature preserve, providing peace and quiet.

The first floor includes a spacious open floor-plan great room with a stone gas fireplace that looks up into a two-story cupola. Plenty of comfortable sofas surround the fireplace sitting areas. A large dining table is situated close to the kitchen, and provides ample space for a large gathering. The granite countertop island is large enough for a sizable buffet, a five-burner gas cooktop, and six barstools. The gourmet kitchen includes a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and a stand-alone ice maker. Kitchen is stocked with everything you will need, including dishes, silverware, and glassware for 24, pots and pans, prep and cooking equipment utensils, serving platters and bowls, small appliances and pantry staples.

Down the hall from the great room, a first floor bedroom with king bed is situated to view the trees from the beautiful bay windows. A two-sink vanity and tiled walk-in shower, two closets, as well as a private entry to the covered deck await the guests that occupy this suite.

Just off the kitchen, a pantry with pull-out shelves, mudroom/laundry, and a half bath complete the first floor.

Up the stairs, with another impressive view of the estate, there are two queen bedrooms that share a jack and jill bathroom. A pack and play is available in the closet. The jack and jill bathroom has a double-sink vanity that is separated from the bath/shower combo and toilet, giving privacy for multiple guests.

Let the fun begin downstairs with a pool table, wet bar with beverage refrigerator, large screen television and plenty of plush seating to watch a movie or the big game! Over 250 DVDs await movie buffs. Indoor time can be filled with the array of board games, cards and toys. A second full-size refrigerator is located in the storage area.

An additional king bedroom with the same footprint as the first floor bedroom is located down the hall from the open floor plan basement living area. Here, another two-sink vanity ensuite, tiled shower and two closets, as well as a private entry to the covered patio await the guests.

Just steps away from the main home, a wonderfully appointed bunk house with two additional bedrooms, kitchenette with sink and beverage refrigerator, a full bathroom with shower/bath and living area can occupy additional guests, including all of the kids and teenagers. They will have a ping-pong table, full size arcade game with over 1,000 games, large screen television, and sectional sofa to immerse them at night or anytime they need a break from outdoor activities. The bunk room has three sets of bunk beds, for a total of five twins and two fulls. The upstairs loft bedroom has a full size bed, and is perfect for adults that want to supervise and sleep in the same home as the children. We also have two air mattresses available.

The entire home is outfitted with bed linens, blankets, comforters, and comfortable mattresses. Look forward to 100-percent cotton towels in the bathrooms.

An outdoor utility closet houses a double hammock, corn hole and an oversized Jenga game. Pack up some beverages to take with you out on the lake using the industrial style wagon. Put on your sneakers and take a hike across the property. You won't have to leave the estate during your entire stay!
