Grand River
Home was exactly as described in listing. Very large and could definitely accommodate a larger group. That being said, it was definitely in need of a deep cleaning. The refrigerator was extremely dirty. . Looked like it hadn’t been cleaned all season. The oven was in the same condition. Everything else was ok. Not sure about a lake view, maybe if the leaves have fallen. Short drive/walk to Patti’s. All things considered, we enjoyed our stay, but would prefer a little more attention to housekeeping.

About the host

Hosted by Todd Thomason

Host profile image
I am the owner and developer of Little Lake Village subdivision in Grand Rivers, Kentucky. I also developed nearby Marina Village Condos.

While I live in St. Louis with my wife and 2 daughters, I am a native of Western Kentucky and grew up bass fishing on Kentucky-Barkley Lake and duck hunting nearby.

Many of my relatives are originally from and still live in the immediate area in and around Grand Rivers, so the location has special meaning to me and the whole Thomason family.

Why they chose this property

I strongly prefer Grand Rivers as the small-town atmosphere and location on both lakes makes me feel like I am on vacation with most amenities that I need within walking distance of the lakehouse (several restaurants including 500 seat Patti's, T Lawson's Saloon, Cabin Pizza, antique shops, Branson style theater, grocery, bank, ice cream shop, boat rental, $1 million walking trail connecting both lakes, golf cart rental, golf carts are legal to be driven on public streets in Grand Rivers, park, summer concerts, etc.).

My idea of relaxation and vacation is being at the lake with many activities to choose from both on the lake and off of the lake.

Grand Rivers truly offers more to do and options than anywhere else on either Kentucky Lake or Lake Barkley in my opinion.

What makes this property unique

This lakehouse is my largest personal vacation property on on 2 levels and has many developer upgraded features including 2 ensuite style bedrooms, 12.5 foot vaulted ceiling, lots of windows, lots of trees and a beautiful covered porch. My lakehouse is perfect for 3 or 4 families / extended families with lots of kids. I upgraded my lakehouse during COVID and have gone to great lengths to maximize cleanliness for my guests being located in the small town of Grand Rivers that has many basic services without all of the crowds.
