Stunning log cabin on the lake

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Stunning log cabin at the lake and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed by the owner, Colm, who is truly one of the nicest and most hospitable people we’ve met. His kindness and attention to detail made our stay even more special. The cabin itself was perfect—clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It had such a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect getaway spot. The surrounding area is absolutely breathtaking, with stunning nature and peaceful surroundings that made us feel completely relaxed and at home. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful, serene retreat with a wonderful host. We’re so grateful for the experience and will definitely be coming back!

Extremely lovely property and Landlord 🥰

We stayed the first week in August myself my wife and our three child (8)(6)(4), colm was a great host & his wife and daughter were a great help with recommendations in the area, the log cabin was spotless and contained everything we needed for an enjoyable break away, the beds were very comfortable and the scenery was perfect, we drove to near by towns for great food and activities, we had such a great time and will definitely be back again !

If you are fortunate to have quiet neighbours (2 in close cabins) it's a nice stay. We were lucky.

Extra charges for hot tub haven't beeing mentioned during booking. Very expensive for what it is. Chemically treated water that hardly filter.

Quiet and charming place with nice views loads of birds chirping. Host was very helpful and accommodating. Hot tub very nice

A little to much shade from trees would like to have more sunshine specially where the patio is

The location was unreal and we really enjoyed ourselves.

Weather but that's not the hosts fault.

Everything

Liked everything.

Beautiful surroundings, peace and quiet. Great owners.

Rural location

The photos look like you are out on your own but other cabins are close so not as private as you think. Our cabin that was up a height from the lough was extremely disappointing with hardly a view of the lough without intruding on the other guests. The cabin had a disgusting smell of ammonia which could only be described as pet urine. Had to buy air freshers and burn scented candles which where readily available 🤔 to disguise the smell. Hot tub was an extra €100 euro for 3 nights and is I stress not included. Thankfully we didn't make use of it because on inspection it was absolutely disgusting with dead insects and spiders floating in it along with a bad smell. Wouldn't stay here again. Could have a lot of potential if the owner cared about their guests and maintained the place .

The cabin in the woods,next to beautiful loch Derg was amazing, our hosts Colm and his family were lovely and seemed to have thought of everything. Delightful,We can’t wait to go back!

Excellent experience Fantastic views Spotless log cabin Hot tub is a must kids really enjoyed it

accueil parfait, propriétaire excellent. je recommande fortement.

The cabin was beautiful, and the location by the lakeside was outstanding.

Great location for a dip in the lake. Awesome hot tub. Clean. Good experience with the owner.

Beautiful location . Lovely outdoor seating area with fire pit and hot tub available to use but for an additional charge . Cabin was spotless.

There was an additional charge of 50 euro to use the hot tub which wasn't clear on the booking.com site. This 50 euro was paid on arrival. There is a second cabin quite close by but fortunately our neighbours were quiet .

We stayed 2 nights with our dog. It was a very spacious cabin right on the lake so you can swim there and kayak or paddle board Great walks in the forest with our dog. Should you want a peaceful and relaxing place this is it. All cooking facilities provided . No noise . So sorry to leave Our dog loved it too Appreciated being able to stay with our dog so sad in Southern Ireland that 90 percent of accommodations dont allow dogs Cannot understand why

the cabin was perfect for us, we had our kayaks with us, and could go out on the lake from the cabin. very relaxing holiday. would highly recommend if you just want to chill out and relax.

location

It's a lovely wooden cabin. Superb in fact. The lake is 200ft away and there are amazing views to be had. The local cat is so friendly too. Every opportunity it got to enter the place to sit on the couch again, it did. Wifi is great and free to use.

The hot tub (see above). The location is remote and access by car 'challenging'. The shower is tiny. If you're anorexic and short fine. If not, you'll have problems too, They don't tell you the outhouse is shared with a neighboring property they own too. Beware of phone calls from the owner charging extra's for things included in the deal price.

Hot tub not available??

The location was very calm and peaceful with views over Lough Derg. Came equipped with a log fired hot tub and laundry facilities. Has potential to be a fantastic property! if inadequacies are addressed.

To call this property stunning is poetic licence, with exception of the bathroom it's pretty basic compared to other places we've stayed. Lack of floor coverings, inadequate furnishings along with simple things like checking cutlery, glasses, pots & pans etc BEFORE guest's arrival let.it down.

Wonderful cabin on the lough!

Very clean inside, bed comfy, fresh fluffy towels, located absolutely gorgeous, wifi and netflix available, peaceful and the highlight was a visit from the most beautiful little cat. Cabin was so warm and cosy. Pet friendly which was a huge plus for us. Very spacious cabin. So clean inside. Fresh sheets smelt absolutely gorgeous.

Hot tub was very dirty and did not smell good at all, disappointing as we were looking forward to using it. Outdoor furniture was extremely dirty. Bin outside full. No dessert spoons or soup spoons. One wine glass, no bread knife or chopping board...facilities for "self catering" not up to standard. View of the lake could be better. Laundry room next door, very dirty and disorganised, bag of rubbish opened at the door which was also opened. Not a welcoming sight! Lead running across yard for hot tub, trip hazard and need to be careful of fraid wires. Hand soap and cleaning liquids rationed. All small things, small things make the difference tho.

it definitely is stunning! such a beautiful location so peaceful! perfect surroundings, amazing views! Garrykennedy is a gorgeous village too. we will definitely stay here again. Comfy beds, hot shower, everything you need in the kitchen. The hot tub was cool too!

La vue sur le lac et la taille du logement

Difficultés de trouver le logement et le propriétaire ne nous y pas emmenés alors que ce n'était pas facile d'accès surtout dans le noir.Propreté à revoir vaisselle sale et logement pas net. Vraiment déçus par rapport au prix. Pas de sèche- cheveux alors que c'était mentionné. Poils de chat en abondance sur le sofa.

Great location close enough to garrykennedy with a couple of pubs and a restaurant. No food on Monday Tuesday . But other towns are close by. Very nice property main house is at the start of the property and the cabins are down through the woods through some small roads so quite private and one is a few meters from its own little harbor , it was nice to sit and listen to the birds and watch the small fishing boats go by. Cabin was grand good enough size for a small family had a large double bed and some bunk beds. Tv and internet and a kitchen with all you need ,plus an outside gas bbq which is very handy. A small fire pit outside to relax with a fire . Has a resident cat that is very friendly and will make itself at home with you , handy to know if you've a dog that doesn't like cats. Great for dogs if they like cats it's a very safe location and our little dog had great fun sniffing through the woods and watching the swans floating by and playing with the cat. Great checkin just drove down to cabin and keys were in the door and check out the same . Met the owner and was very nice and friendly and always answers the phone if you've any questions. They have a young family too which could be nice if your going with kids.

Just unlucky that restaurant down the road was closed on Monday and Tuesday.

Excelent location

Stunning views across the lake. Bit of narrow road down by was easy find. Had hot tub and kids loved it. Family of Fishers we enjoyed. Although you can't launch boat at the property there is a harbour 5 mins back up the road. Owner was so friendly and helpful Great value for money

Difficulty access bank fishing but owner has taken that on board and hopes to trim back some trees in front lake for better access

Quietness of location.

Woodland area, with lake ...Nice wood cabin. Friendly host , was helpful. Perfect for pets too

We had a lovely stay. The scenic location was absolutely stunning. So peaceful and quiet, and directly on the lake - heavenly. The cabin was large and comfortable, the bed was large and comfortable, the shower was good and hot. If you are looking for a quiet getaway in a beautiful setting - this place is it!

We had a lovely stay, and we would like to go back again in the future, HOWEVER, there were details that could have been SO much better! 1) The keys were left in the door for us. When we got inside everything was turned off at the switches. The place was very cold and we have to figure out how to turn everything on and get some heat going. Even the fridge was turned all the way down to 1, so it wasn't cold. Not very welcoming. If you know what time someone is coming, it would be nice to put the heat on and have things ready. 2) The listing said there would be wifi. There was a router there, and a password provided, but none of our devices could connect to it. It just said "connecting...." for all of eternity and then "avoided poor internet connection" 3) The tv wouldn't work because the remote control had been chewed by a dog. 4) There was a lovely BBQ, but it was so filthy with old grease that we couldn't use it. 5) The front door does not latch unless you lock it, it swings open again behind you. This proved quite challenging for us because of the cat that insisted on trying to push its way in - and we have a dog who was eager to eat the cat. 6) The bathroom door does not close from the inside and would swing open while you sat on the toilet. 7) The cat. It was the cutest cat in the world, BUT we brought our dogs with us and one of them hates cats. The cat mewed outside the door from 7am both mornings and would not leave. We couldn't hang out outside with the dogs, which was the point of renting a dog-friendly place. Whenever we had to take the dogs outside the cat would follow us and try to get itself killed. One of us would have to scoop it up and hold onto it while the other person took took out the dogs. What can be done about the cat? Nothing, but heads up to anyone bringing a cat-hating dog. 8) The track into the property very narrow, winding, and muddy - not ideal for some vehicles.

Location was amazing, right on the lake. Just beautiful.

Well appointed and roomy log cabin within metres of Lough Derg.

 booked the log cabin for 2 nights, and was not disappointed. I was looking for somewhere peaceful and quiet to get away and relax and I think I've found my new favourite place to do so. I arrived when dark but it was still easy to find, thanks to the owner. He contacted me ahead of time to sort out directions and went above and beyond to accommodate me and my puppy. The log cabin itself was tidy, clean and had all the necessary amenities. It has free WiFi, a TV, fridge, bbq, gas cooker, microwave etc so perfect for families too. I was concerned that it would be cold ( the first night I stayed there was a big storm) but the owner assured that the heating was good and he did not lie, I actually had to get up at night to turn it down. The log cabin was secluded and private, but still close enough to forest walks, shops, garage and take away (5 min drive into Portroe). Not to mention that the cabin is quite literally on the banks of Lough Derg, so you have all the privacy and peacefulness you want with a lovely view all around. I will definitely return here again and again, and I can't wait to stay during the summer and make use of the patio and bbq. 10/10 definitely recommend.

Nothing at all

Stunning location, ideal for kayaking on Lough Derg

Loved the location as during Covid the cabin was so secluded this was ideal. We brought our dinghys and the property had a harbour on lough derg 10 mts away and we enjoyed sailing on lake immensely.

Needed some soup/ dessert spoons

The location of this cabin was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. We returned home well rested. The owner was very accomodating.

Lovely quiet peaceful location, right on the lake. Well equipped kitchen, WiFi, large tv. Cabin is surrounded by a small woodland down a lane. Garrykennedy is the nearest town about 5 min drive. We had dinner in Larkins on Saturday evening which we really enjoyed. Dromineer is about a 15 min drive for kayaks, boat hire and the aqua splash inflatable course in the water which is great fun. Nenagh is the closest larger town for additional amenities with all the major supermarkets. - Tesco, Dunnes, aldi, Lidl etc Overall a great weekend. Would recommend.

Nothing

Well the location can't be beaten. Overall the cabin was great, well equipped, so quiet, very close small village. Lovely little wood walks nearby.

A few things weren't up and running when we were there like running water in the bathroom for the sink and some light fixtures not installed but this was because it was just built.

Everything was perfect. The host was very friendly. The location of the cabin was so peaceful and it was so clean. Would definitely stay again 😍

Amazing little place! Easy to find. Everything was clean, owner was really nice and helpful, even his dogs came to say hello a few times. So peaceful! Close proximity to a little village which had great coffee, take away food and drinks and ice creams etc. Great walks and trails to find. Amazing views of the lake!
