Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway just up the hill from Hardin's Landing boat ramp at Nolin Lake. Enjoy beautiful forest and ridgeline views during the day, and spend your evenings sitting around the fire pit with your loved ones.
The boat ramp is only a half mile down the hill, so bring your own boat, or take a 15 min drive to Wax Marina to rent one for your stay. We're also close driving distance to Blue Holler Off-Road Park, Trout Fishing and Mammoth Cave National Park.
This cozy cabin is a traditional A-frame that sits atop the hill at the end of Whippoorwill Way in Hardin's Landing just off Dog Creek in Cub Run at Nolin Lake. Outside you'll enjoy a tranquil and peaceful retreat where you can listen to the sounds of the Whippoorwills calling through the trees, and peaceful evenings with your friends and family grilling and chilling around the fire pit.
As you enter the home, there's a well-equipped laundry room as well as a generously sized full bathroom. Down the hall is the first bedroom with two twin beds (that can be converted to a king) as well as a nice desk with a large monitor to plug in your laptop or other device.
Also on this floor is the cozy living and dining area with access to the sitting porch overlooking a forested hillside, along with a small kitchen with a breakfast bar and an entertainment area with a record player with Bluetooth capability, as well as a collection of games and books. You can bring your own records or gently use our offerings. Our Roku TV is ready for you to sign into your accounts and binge to your heart's desire.
Upstairs you'll find the remaining three sleeping areas. These are designated as "bedrooms" in the listing in order to be individually featured in our photo tour. While it is a contiguous space, it is well separated into three distinct sleeping areas, and there are room dividers and a sound machine for extra privacy and comfort. The king and queen bed sleeping areas are across the stairs from one another, while the twin trundle section with the picture window is in an offset space at the front of the A-frame.
Currently there is one large wall unit and another window unit air conditioner installed in the upstairs of the property. There are multiple fans throughout the home, and supplemental air conditioning unit is available in the living area in the summer.
In the winter, we currently utilize the propane wall heater (if necessary), but mainly the few small space heaters will do the trick, depending on outside temps.
The exterior spaces of the home include a couple of seating areas, a picnic/grilling area, and a firepit with a grill grate for additional grilling space. We try to keep firewood available, but we can't guarantee it, or that it will be in great supply. If you plan on utilizing the firepit, please think ahead. If you need a firewood delivery, that can be arranged for you at an additional cost.
If you plan on using the charcoal grill, please bring your own charcoal and lighter fluid, and be prepared to clean it while you're heating it up. On occasion. people will leave these things behind, but we can't guarantee they'll be there for you. Think of it as a park style grill.
This property is not lake front or lake view. It features lovely forest and hilltop views, and it is just a few minutes walk down the hill to the public boat ramp and water access at Hardin's Landing. There are private docks there, but they're not public access.
The home is close to many local attractions other than the lake. Mammoth Cave National Park just a short drive. You'll take a very fun short ferry ride to reach the north side of the park as well. Blue Holler Off-Road Park is also nearby. The home is only 10 minutes from the Detwilers Amish market complex and deli. It's a great place to go roam around and get a quick lunch. In that area is also convenient shopping for supplies in "downtown" Cub Run. Bouys at the Lodge is a great restaurant/bar at Wax Marina that has live music some nights and is only about a 15 min drive if you want an afternoon or night out.
All that being said, this home sits atop a beautiful hill at the end of a graveled private drive with a somewhat steep ascent on the last curve. And while our real estate agent made it up with no trouble with her late model Honda Civic, please keep in mind *your own* comfort with your driving abilities and the capabilities of your vehicle. Seasonal weather affects the road conditions here, and this should ALWAYS be taken into account when driving to remote areas. And while we take extra efforts to keep our property and its private drive highly accessible, the trip up the hill could be a little stressful for some more timid drivers. Our advice to you is to just keep going! Once you are headed up that hill, **don't stop.** If a 15-year-old Honda Civic, Amazon deliveries, and a heavily laden Lowe's appliance delivery truck can make it, so can you!!
The water heater in this property is relatively small. In the warmer months when the groundwater is warm, you may not experience this, but if the groundwater is cooler, you may have to give the water heater a few minutes to catch up when taking back to back showers, or using the outdoor and indoor showers simultaneously.
LASTLY, because this is a very rural area, occasionally we do experience "Boil Water Advisories." We like to bring our own bottled water just in case, and we advise our guests to do the same. Normally these advisories are out of an abundance of caution. However, it is always best to play it safe when it happens. If we do get a notice of a boil water advisory, we will let you know as soon as possible. You can also check the Edmondson County Water company for their updates before traveling.

We do not allow events or parties. Our septic system is simply not designed for that type of usage, and excess vehicles and traffic on the hill is damaging to our gravel drive. Any violation of this rule will result in immediate termination of your reservation with no refund.
No smoking allowed
You may smoke outdoors, but please smoke far away from the doors or windows. There is a sand bucket meant for cigarette disposal, but we ask that you please use the scoop to empty it out at the end of your stay. Place the used and fully extinguished butts **in a trash bag**, and not directly in the outside trash can.
Parking Included
There are several spaces in front of the home as well as a gravel roundabout. Make sure that you don't park your car as too close to the fire pit though, as hot ashes have been known to damage paint jobs.

Guests will access the home with a digital keypad. Your code will be set to the last four digits of the booking individual's phone number unless otherwise requested at least 48 hours in advance.
Check in and check out. times are flexible, depending on the schedule of our cleaning crew and the availability of the property. We are happy to discuss late checkouts or even booking additional half days to make your long weekend a little bit longer.

There are no exceptions to this rule. The main booking individual must be at least 25 years old, and present a valid ID that matches their individual photo with their signed lease agreement and deposit.
Maximum occupancy: 8
Infants and *one* child under the age of 5 may exceed our eight-person max occupancy, but this house is relatively small, so please keep that in mind when bringing along extra little ones. There is one toddler mattress and one pack and play provided. Also, this house is not childproofed, and there are stairs with an awkward opening at the top that **cannot be secured for the safety**.

House Rules
We want you to make the most of your stay here, but we do require our guests to be mindful of the peaceful enjoyment of the setting and our neighbors in the area. No "parties" allowed. For insurance reasons, we do not allow guests other than those that are listed in the original booking on the premises at any time. We want you to have tons of fun, but any loud music or outdoor activities need to quiet down by 10:30 p.m.
Failure to adhere to these rules, or any of the other listed house rules could result in your eviction without refund.
Because our home is situated at the end of a long private drive, we do not have trash pickup *at* the house. Our main trash can is at the bottom of Sean's Pass, where it meets up with Martin Pierce Road. There is a line of trash cans there, and our can is spray painted gold with the address on the lid.
There is a small trash bin outside of the property to collect trash during your stay. Please make sure to *only put bagged trash* into this bin, as you must take it down the hill with you when you leave. Please remove any excess trash during your stay to the can at the bottom of the hill at your earliest convenience, and please take *any and all trash* with you to that MAIN CAN at the bottom of the hill at checkout. We have provided large black contractor bags to ensure that this is an easy process for our guests. It's especially important that excess food waste does not stay in the outside bin for very long, as that can attract wildlife and bugs.
PET POLICY:
At this time, WE CAN ONLY accommodate up to two dogs with a total Max weight limit of 50 lb. This "Gnome Home" is a cozy space, so unfortunately we just don't have the room to accommodate multiple large animals. All pets must be crated when you leave, or you must take them with you. They must be leashed and under your control at all times when outdoors. Failure to comply with our pet policies or to pay pet fees for each pet could result in the termination of your booking with no refund.
Currently there is only one mid-sized crate in the property, so please be prepared to bring anything larger, or secondary crate if you need to. You should bring appropriate pet beds and blankets for your fur babies. Please do not allow them on the furniture or in the beds. Excess amounts of pet fur, pet waste accidents or other damages will result in extra charges. We do provide sticky rollers and other fur removal tools for your convenience. PLEASE pick up after your pet. No one likes to step in a pile of poo while they're trying to enjoy our outdoor areas! We ask that you bring your own pet waste bags, but we do try to leave extra grocery bags in the property in case you've forgotten, and we encourage you to leave your extra bags there as well. It's best to put pet waste bags in with larger bags of trash when you take them out... It's pretty hard to fish them out of the bottom of our outdoor bin.
Please put the AC units on 76 and on "Econ" mode when you leave the home for the day, or at checkout. Do not leave doors or windows open when you leave or while any heaters or A/C units are running. If you are using the supplemental unit in the downstairs area, upon checkout, please remove the window vent from the window, turn the unit off completely, and secure and lock the windows. If you are running the air conditioner units, please do not leave doors and windows open. Like "Mama" always says, we are not trying to heat or cool the outdoors! Lastly, screen doors and window screens are there to keep pests out, so please don't prop those open.
We allow smoking or vaping **outside of the property**, but ask that you please step away from the entry doors if you choose to smoke. We've provided a metal sand bucket receptacle for butts. At the end of your stay, please remove all your butts with the provided scoop and place them into a trash bag to be removed with the general trash. PLEASE BE SURE all cigarettes are fully extinguished before placing them into any trash receptacles. Fire is a VERY real hazard here, AND WE WANT TO MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO AVOID IT.
FIREPIT AND GRILL SAFETY AND CARE:
The use of the fire pit and grill is at your own risk!! We cannot be responsible for any accidents regarding the use of either of these amenities. Please FULLY extinguish the fire pit and grill before going to bed or leaving the property. FOREST OR PROPERTY FIRE IS A REAL POSSIBILITY IF THIS IS NOT DONE. This is one of the major reasons that we have a camera in this area. We provide a *labeled plastic* bucket for water as an extinguisher.
PLEASE DO NOT USE THE PLASTIC BUCKET TO REMOVE HOT COALS OR ASHES. IT WILL MELT, AND COULD CAUSE INJURIES.
A METAL ASH BUCKET and scoop are there to clean out these areas safely. Only dump the ash bucket when you are 100% sure that it is fully extinguished. FULLY extinguished ashes can be dumped in the areas surrounding the fire pit, but please be careful.
Like a public park, the fire pit and charcoal grill is "as you find it." We do appreciate our guests cleaning up after themselves with these amenities.
RAMP AND DOCKS:
Hardin's Landing ramp is a public access ramp. Please familiarize yourself with ramp etiquette, and make sure that you understand that at the busiest times of year, there could be a line to put in or take out. Make sure you factor that in to your checkout times specifically. The docks at Hardin's Landing and all neighborhood docks on Nolin Lake are private, and are not for the use of any rental guests. The "dockmaster" for Hardin's Landing lives at the bottom of the hill and they are *very diligent* about this. Please keep this in mind. You could be ticketed and fined by the Army Corps of Engineers if you're found to be trespassing on private docs or misusing the space.
To sum it up, please strive to treat our property and the neighborhood with the same respect as you would if you were staying with a friend. If you have any questions at all, we're always happy to answer.

Notes
Hopefully we've covered everything in all of the other sections, which I highly recommend that you read. But just in case you missed it, the gist is to just be aware that this is a rural and wooded property that nature basically has the full run of. You can encounter bugs, wildlife, poison ivy etc, and any number of other things that you might encounter in any other untamed wilderness area that you might visit.
And while we strive to make this place the most comfortable and cozy getaway we can for all of our guests, this is not a "luxury" type stay. Keeping the "Gnome Home" mentality in mind is important to understanding what you will get when you visit our little getaway. There is no dishwasher, so if you're not a fan of washing dishes, we highly recommend that you bring disposable items.
When you are staying in more remote and rural areas like ours, be prepared to expect the unexpected. We're in *deep* woods, and bugs are just a fact of life. We spray the property and the surrounding areas regularly, but as Jurrasic Park taught us, Life Will Find A Way... And sometimes that's into the home!! We will always try our VERY best to set you up for success, but please remember that this is a remote and somewhat rustic lake cabin. You might just think of it as "glamping" on steroids!
