Wonderful stay

This place was very clean and had a very comfortable mattress on the bed. I recently had neck/back surgery so I was worried about the bed being uncomfortable but it was very comfortable. The house was very cute- definitely will go back.

Perfect Anniversary Getaway!

We stayed at Jolene's for our 22nd anniversary and everything was just perfect! The house is such a gem - everything perfectly decorated and comfortable! Loved having all the amenities available! The deck/porch area with the fire pit table was a favorite spot for us to just sit and drink coffee. Nice area close enough to everything! Would love to stay again!!

This is a smaller older home that has been remodeled and was very nice. My husband and I were there for a couple of days so that we could do some hiking in the surrounding area. The outdoor space was very pleasant and the kitchen was easy to work in.

Great place to stay 😊!! Plenty of parking for a 21’ boat and 2 vehicles.The house was super comfortable and very clean . The massive cold front made fishing extremely tough , but the scenic beauty was amazing.would highly recommend Jolene’s Place to family and friends. 😊✌️❤️

Amazing lake house!

Our family of 5 stayed at this comfortable home for a long weekend and it was perfect for us! Very convenient to Holly Bay Marina and the Grove. Loved the layout of the home and how cozy it was. I love a clean home and this couldn't have been cleaner! So well stocked with all the extras you could possibly think of too. We also enjoyed drinking our coffee and eating our dinner on the back porch. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!

Jolene, Jolene!

We absolutely loved staying in Jolene! It is truly an amazing property with easy access to town and beyond. I specifically picked this property based on distances to what we were doing in the state. Everything is about an hour and a 1/2 away from Jolene! Jolene is immaculate! From the cleanliness to the decore - extremely well done! This fun theme is found throughout the home from large details to the smallest detail! Well stocked, thought out additions, and access to a variety of streaming services. I'd stay there again - in fact, I said I would live there! Well done hosts! You nailed a perfect vacation rental!

It’s a wonderful place to stay!! It’s not huge or anything but we love the space.

Being on the back is porch is the best mainly when it’s warm. My 9 month loves it she can run her walker all over the place. We love the Dolly theme!! Very nice for the price. The hosts are amazing they go out of their way to make sure your experience is enjoyable and don’t forget to sign the book in the living room!! It’s one of our favorite things reading everyone’s else entries!

Wonderful Experience

This was our first stay at an property like this. We really enjoyed ourselves. The grandchildren could play in the fenced in backyard while the grownups talked and visited. We thouroughly enjoyed ourselves. It got too cold for us so we had to stay in the last couple of days. We are from the south and the north is really cold to us. It was comfy. We will make sure we call again when we need a place up in Kentucky. Thank you for an amazing experience.
