Guest access Welcome to our cozy 3,100 square foot home! You’ll have plenty of space to relax and enjoy yourself. The backyard is a true oasis with a covered porch, a private pool, and a custom-built treehouse and trampoline. We’ve even added a new hot tub and fire pit for some cozy nights in. The neighborhood is super peaceful, with minimal traffic. It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. You can take a stroll around the lake in the early mornings or at sunset. And if you’re feeling adventurous, you can drive a few miles to historic downtown Wilmore, home of Asbury University. Keeneland, Historic Shaker Village, the Bourbon Trail, the Bluegrass Trail, the Kentucky Horse Park, and the Bluegrass airport (LEX) are all within easy reach. Downtown Lexington and Rupp Arena are just a 25-minute drive away. If you’re interested in learning more about the area, you can take a trip to the Ark Encounter, a one-of-a-kind museum in Petersburg, KY, featuring a full-size replica of Noah’s Ark. This was our family home for 35 years, and I live nearby. If you have any questions or need anything, just let me know. I’m here to make sure you have a wonderful time. One thing to keep in mind is that we don’t allow wild parties or events. Family reunions and birthday gatherings are fine, but they should be done in a respectful manner and don’t involve additional guests staying overnight. Oh, and one more thing - the house is located in a wooded area, so you might hear some coyotes howling at night, birds chirping, woodpeckers drumming, and owls hooting. You might also spot some wild animals like geese, ducks, deer, rabbits, wild turkeys, squirrels, moles, mice, snakes, foxes, turtles, wasps, bees, ticks, flies, mosquitoes, and other bugs. I can’t guarantee that you’ll see all of them, but if you do, it’s just nature’s way of showing off! Other things to note The roof of the back porch has solar panels that heat the pool on sunny days. A solar-heated pool is usually 8-12 degrees warmer than an unheated pool in the same area, so you can swim from April to September. During the summer, the pool pump runs from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. I have plenty of firewood for you to enjoy a cozy fire in the fire pit every evening. The fire pit will be ready for use when you arrive. In the shed, you will find a propane torch along with cardboard, dry firewood, cushions, and marshmallow sticks.   Feel free to use the bikes and scooters in the shed.   The gazebo lights turn on at dusk for four hours (unless there's a power failure).   Your kids will love climbing, sliding, and swinging on the custom-built tree playhouse. The big upper deck has a trap door. We’ve got a new 14-foot enclosed trampoline that’ll keep kids of all ages entertained. Adults and kids also enjoy playing basketball, cornhole, or a game on the 7’ pool table.
