Property is exactly as expected. Only concern which was mentioned to the owner already is Down Pillows (feather) for those with feather allergies. Home was clean. View was great. Parking is easy.

The home was lovely inside and out. Even though it rained all weekend the views were spectacular from every level of the home. The kitchen island was perfect for everyone to sit around and have meals and play games, and the screened in porch was great for hanging out in the evening.

A Relaxing Weekend Away
This house is beautiful, and the location is serene, with deer wandering through the yard throughout the day. We had 8 people stay in the house, and we could have fit more without feeling cramped at all. The house was clean, and the kayaks, screened-in patio, and lounge area down by the water really made our weekend.

Gem of a home
We all loved this house! They have everything we needed - including 2 fridges, 2 washers and dryers, 4 bathrooms/showers and lots of beds! Beautiful home and lake views. Mike, the owner, was so easy to work with and you can tell he loves this home and happy to open it up to families. What a treasure!

Relaxing Lake House & Grounds
Super easy to find. Incredible views. Very nice updated & spacious house. Enough comfortable sleeping space. Easy access, and safe, to lake. Rented a boat for a day, rode to house to get everyone. Great fun!! Elk & Bison Reserve fun for an hour. Inside house areas nice, and just enough for the possible rainy day. Glad we went!! Mike is very attentive and friendly.

Great house. The deck and screened room was perfect for our family. We rented a pontoon boat for the week and was able to tie it to the owner's peer. Kitchen gave four cooks plenty of room to create delicious meals all week. Most certainly will return.

This house is very nice but it is not big enough for 16 people which is how it was listed. Really 12 would be perfect. Not enough space to even pull out the trundle beds and couldn’t find any sheets for them. But overall we still had a wonderful time just very crowded. The outdoor space is great!

We had a wonderful stay at Mike's lake house. He was the best host that I have ever had at a rental property. The house and grounds were very well kept and Mike was very attentive. Note that the lake and firepit are is quite a bit further from the house than anticipated but the exercise didn't hurt.

Absolutely perfect!
This cottage and setting was beautiful! We loved every moment from fishing off the dock with our boys, drinking coffee in the AM while looking at the stunning view and enjoying the fire pit at night under the stars. The house was thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed and more and the owner was gracious and accommodating. The only disappointment you will experience is having to leave it all behind! Highly recommend!

Ultimate Relaxation
My 83 year-old mom, sister and I loved our stay here so much we did not leave the property from check-in to check-out. We made all our meals in the beautiful, well stocked kitchen. Spent our mornings on the deck, afternoons sitting by the lake and then headed in to the screened porch until dinner. I also took advantage of the kayaks every morning exploring beautiful Lake Barkley. This property was perfect for my mom because getting up and down to the lake didn't require stairs or maneuvering a super steep hill like many of the lake houses I saw, just a slight hill she was able to handle just fine. This was our second trip to Sunset Cottage and we are already talking about making our third.

Amazing
Everything about this was amazing. The house was amazing (clean, well stocked with necessities, plenty of room, great layout, wonderful views of lake). The communication with owners was amazing (timely, helpful, accommodating). The lake was amazing (good fishing from dock or boat, great beach across the channel for kids to swim, low traffic). We would definitely stay here again. Strongly recommend for a family or any group looking for a fun relaxing trip.
