Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Barren River Lake

House was exactly as posted Holly couldn’t have been more accommodating! 10 out of 10

We enjoyed our stay. It was just a quick over night as we were driving through. Beds were comfortable. My kids loved the snack bowl! We will definitely choose this place again.

This cottage was clean, peaceful and gorgeous! So comfortable and lots of outside space to relax. Host was very responsive when we had a question. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Very cute home and clean. Nice quiet neighborhood. Tiffany was a great host. We really enjoyed our stay.

A wonderful peaceful place to stay just south of the Kentucky border surrounded by fields of corn and wheat. Great coffee machine and nice and spacious.

Jackie's farm is very peaceful and relaxing. You have a welcoming committee (cat), and the easy sound of chickens clucking. Visit with the cows and goats or just sit on the porch with your coffee or wine and feel the stress leave your body. While there take a walk down to the barn and watch them milk the cows. They are more than willing to explain things and answer your questions. This is a perfect place to unplug. Would definitely stay here again.

Great house close to Mammoth Cave. The inside was very nice, and it is a well stocked airbnb compared to other places we have stayed. Grocery is about 15 min away, and also on the drive in. Both bathrooms are nice, and the master bath is really nice. If you are staying here for Mammoth, there are a few entrances to the park. The house is a few minutes from the entrance and a few more to the ferry. This is the closest entrance to the visitor center, which is where all trips into the cave begin. GPS has the visitor center trip at 30 minutes with the ferry (which must account for about 20 min. on the ferry) and 45 going the long way around. The April floods raised the water level from 15' to 60' and all the docking was torn out. The ferry will be down till around September '25 according to the park ranger. We would stay here again.

This was our third time staying here, and it never disappoints! My family and I absolutely love everything about this cabin and its location. It's always a great experience, and we’ll definitely be back again.

The apartment was great! Very nicely decorated. The host, Mario was great! We needed a couple of things which Mario immediately went and got for us. He checked with us many times to make sure we were doing ok and if we needed any thing. I highly recommend his Vrbo listings and we will definitely stay again! Thank you Mario for your kindness and help!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An effortlessly cool, clean, and welcoming stay! From the moment I walked in, I could feel the care and intention behind this space. The decor was modern, stylish, and calming — like something out of a boutique magazine, but still totally livable and cozy. Everything was spotless (seriously, not a dust bunny in sight), and all the little touches made it feel special without being overdone. The host was incredibly friendly and responsive, striking that perfect balance of being available but not intrusive. Check-in was seamless, and the vibe of the whole experience was relaxed and easygoing. If you're looking for a space that feels both elevated and homey, clean and cool, with just the right amount of personality — this is it. I’d absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat!

We were in town for my son’s graduation at WKU , Sam’s place was in walking distance of everything . We had no issues with his instructions, everything ran smoothly, and his place was so clean! Thank you, Sam!

Emma's place was very private, clean and very peaceful. Washer and dryer are a plus! Great place for a weekend get-away..

Was a cute place to stay. Convenient to Mammoth Cave and to Bowling Green. The train was not a issue. There are fans and a sound machine. Ear plugs are also provided. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend this location for distance to Mammoth Cave, Dinosaur World, Kentucky Down Under and restaurants. Yet it is private and serene. Playground out back, swings around the fire pit and friendly little barn cats. We had everything we needed! Our hosts were very friendly and helpful!

Had a small issue with ants in the kitchen area due to a rainstorm the night we arrived, but otherwise the place worked perfectly for us on our trip to the national park.

We had an amazing stay at Mary Jane's place! The whole apartment felt cozy from the minute we walked in, and we loved the unique decor all around the house. The fresh flowers that she left in various rooms felt like a special touch. She also provided us with local restaurant recommendations, which we really appreciated, and we had the pleasure of meeting her serendipitously in one of them! We truly enjoyed our stay, and would recommend this Airbnb to anyone.

awesome stay with an awesome host! more than accommodating with walking distance to a bunch of local establishments. my wife and I enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful time exploring the community!

We had a wonderful experience at this Airbnb! The host's flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request truly saved the day. The home was precisely as advertised and provided the ideal space for our family of four while we visited family in the area. We'd definitely stay again!

I arrived early. Was accommodated and let in early. . The place was clean. Everything worked.there were 0 issues the entire time i was there. Close to every shopping thing you can imagine. Would deff stay again.

My husband and I loved our stay at this beautiful home! We look forward to another visit in the near future.

Neighborhood is in the historic college district. I loved seeing all the old homes and landscaping. Very close to the main part of town, very picturesque.

This property was extremely well maintained. It was convenient to everything we wanted to do for Western Kentucky University's graduation weekend. Highly recommend!!!

The space was great! Very modern setting, very clean as well. We walked the square every night. The host left some notes on her favorite spots to check out. We checked out most on the list and were not disappointed. The local bands played in the bar downstairs until 1am. They were super loud but the host left headphones! So my husband was able to sleep and be well rested for his class everyday!

Very quiet neighborhood. Walking distance to downtown. Plenty of parking.
