The space
“Bear Necessities" is a newly constructed tiny home, that provides extra space to enjoy the outdoors. This home can accommodate up to 4 people. First floor bedroom has a queen bed with linens. The loft includes a full bed that is accessible by wooden ladder style steps. Your private bathroom and kitchen are located on the first floor with all the basic necessities included. You have 4 towels/washcloths are included with your stay. If you need additional please remember to bring those with you to make your stay more comfortable.

Our glamp-ground boasts a two stall family style bathhouse for additional convenience.

NO OUTSIDE GUESTS OR EVENTS PERMITTED UNLESS APPROPRIATE BOOKING IS MADE AND APPROVED. (View our other listing “Entire Glampground” if you wish to have additional guests or events onsite).

READ FULL DESCRIPTION BEFORE BOOKING, PLEASE! All of our listings offer some privacy, but this is a multi-site space in a small lake community so you will not have entire seclusion. There are several fire pits on the property for you to enjoy campfires. (Your private pit is just steps away from your door) Please use these designated spaces and do not create new ones for fires.

*Firewood available for purchase on the honor system, located by the bathhouse for $6/bundle CASH ONLY.

There is a gas grill, located by the bathhouse for cooking in the great outdoors.

You have a gorgeous lake view from the property, but no easy lake access direct from the property. There is a community-shared access trail to the lake. A few things to note: the decline is fairly steep, you’ll want to wear good shoes to get down due to rocks and some debri left by other (not so thoughtful) users, grab the camp chairs we leave under your bed (make sure to bring them back with you). However, the end result is a beautiful shore-side view of the lake with the perfect rock ledge to dip your toes or go for a swim!

You also can visit Pulaski Co. Park for a day at the “lake beach” or Somersplash water park for some fun in the sun if you are coming without a boat.


Since we are located right on Lake Cumberland, on a wooded lot, you will likely encounter insects and wildlife. Be prepared for any of the following: ticks, mosquitos, deer, and snakes. We have also had a bear enter the property through our infamous neighborhood "bear hole" on our adjoining property in the past.

Please leave your pets at home. (NO PETS) Our neighbors have dogs, as do we, that you can love on if needed!

By accepting this reservation, you agree to the terms listed in House Rules.

Neighborhood highlights

Being right on Lake Cumberland, you will hear boaters out late at night, music and the occasional fireworks. Our neighborhood is a mixture of permanent residents and other folks enjoying rentals, so be courteous of those around you. We often take walks to the end of our dead-end road and enjoy the quiet walk the road offers. You are free to roam our property and explore any trails to the lake AT YOUR OWN RISK.
