Serentiy by the Lake is a beautifully crafted cypress log home peacefully tucked away on 4 wooded acres with direct access to a quiet cove on the south end of Barren River Lake and only a mile away from Browns Ford boat ramp.

Rest and relaxation will come easy in this well-maintained home offering 3 bedrooms that comfortably sleeps 8. The first bedroom with queen bed is conveniently located on the first floor with private bath and direct access to the main living area, private office space, and outside deck. The second story has another bedroom with a queen bed, a bunkhouse bedroom sporting four twin XL bunk beds, and a second full bathroom. All three bedrooms are adorned with new handcrafted cedar log furniture.

Serenity by the lake gives you the privacy you need to escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life and reconnect with mother nature. Relax as you grill out on the deck or read a book on the covered porch swing while surrounded by valleys on both sides filled with mature 70-foot hardwood trees teaming with wildlife. Stroll down the trail from the back yard to the lake where you can enjoy complimentary use of two kayaks.

While you will have that off-the grid feel, the fiberoptic Wi-Fi easily keeps all your devices connected to the outside world. You can stream all your favorite shows on the smart t.v. or if work calls, there is a private office space off the downstairs bedroom with computer desk. This home has all the amenities you want to enjoy a tranquil getaway at the lake without sacrificing modern conveniences of home.

**Note-An April storm has downed two large trees blocking the path to the cove. Lake access will be through Browns-Ford boat ramp (1 mile away) until pathway is cleared.

    We had such a relaxing stay here! Everything was comfortable and clean. Very secluded property. We had a fire outside and roasted marshmallows, enjoyed walking in the woods down to the lake, and just got a lot of much needed R&R. Kitchen had all the pots and pans I needed for cooking, and we also grilled one meal. WiFi worked great which was perfect because we had two sons on fall break from college who still had some online work to do, and my husband had a work emergency he was able to do online. It was an easy drive to cave city to take a cave tour as well. Beautiful home and property. Thank you for sharing it!

    We had a lovely, relaxing stay at Dave B.'s. The house is at the dead end of a gravel road so no one passes by. The house is well-stocked with all kinds of supplies. We availed ourselves of the fireplace and the Smart tv. Dave reminded us that there are no stores within a 20 minute drive so we were well-prepared with groceries. All of the light switches are labeled. Very helpful. We hope to come back next year, as do our dogs. They loved romping freely in the large yard and their leashed strolls along the road. There is a short looped walk further down the Settlers Way. Tens across the board.

    We had a great time staying five nights here for our spring break. The house property (inside and outside) was very well kept. My parents have limited mobility, and the downstairs bedroom/bathroom set up was perfect for them. Our four kids looooooved how the bunk beds were in the same room, and the upstairs bathroom was so spacious. We found everything we needed and more. If you stay here and forget something, dig around before you panic. I loved that there was a first aid kit, washer and dishwasher detergent, solo cups, and the fridge was so clean! We spent our time around the mammoth caves area and Nashville — both of which were a little bit of a drive, but we enjoyed the flexibility of being able able to drive through the country to get where we wanted to go. Dave was great at welcoming us via message the day of, and sending us off via message the day we left. I’m sure if we had needed something he would have been very responsive and helpful. We cooked most of our meals in the kitchen and on the grill, and we found the kitchen well stocked and easy to navigate. My dad had a conversation with the neighbor when he saw him bringing the trashcan in, and said that his interaction with him was really good. I know he isn’t apart of the rental (lol), but it’s nice to know that good people surround the place you’re considering staying at. All and all, I’d for sure recommend this rental to any of my friends if our vacation was something they were looking to replicate.

    We spent the weekend of my wife's 50th birthday here. Her first wish when planning a trip was she wanted to go somewhere peaceful and serene. This property definitely made her wish come true. The house is actually nicer in person than the pictures portray. It had everything we needed and then some to be comfortable. It was extremely clean and well appointed. We were able to spend several very relaxing days here and would like to go back. The owner checked in on us and was very gracious. If your looking for a peaceful getaway, choose this property!!

    Family stayed an extended weekend and it was sooo relaxing. It’s a little ways out from the nearest town, but that’s great for me. Quiet and peaceful… grilled steaks and just enjoyed our time together. Recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing retreat!

    Just what we needed - a beautiful weekend. Cabin was beautiful and beautiful property. Very clean - and had everything we could possibly need. I wish it was closer to the lake - it was a steep walk down to the river - but beautiful.
