Perfect for a Peaceful Getaway

We greatly enjoyed our long weekend here. The home was immaculate and had so many thoughtful conveniences that made our stay super comfortable. It was nice having the family put our cell phones down to spend time together playing games & shooting pool. If you want a relaxing time away from the business of modern life, you will not regret choosing this remote, beautiful stay!

This location is special

This is an excellent VRBO spot for those that are looking for a rural get-away. Everything provided is high quality and this is quite a special location that may not have an equal in the area. The skies are decently dark for those looking to get some star gazing in and is conveniently located near the Red River Gorge area. We enjoyed the fire pit, the hot tub, the grill, the pool table, and the dart board. The youngest girl in our group was excited to "cross the bridge" inside the house that connects to one set of bedrooms. A word of caution: the cabin is about 30 minutes away from any real civilization on a winding hill road that contains several hairpins and ought to have way more guard rails than it does. Do not attempt to drive into this location at night having never done it before! Once you know what's in store for you from doing a daytime drive, doing it at night isn't bad but I think it's actually dangerous going into it with no experience. The distance should also be factored in when considering groceries: buy what you need at the beginning of the trip because going down and up the hill is going to take an hour so you don't want to be making many drives for supplies. I'd absolutely do this trip again but I'd spend more time here than I did. Absolutely worth it.

A Slice of Heaven

The cabin was beautiful and met every need. There was plenty of space for the nine who stayed and we wanted for nothing. The accommodations were top tier even down to the bed linens. The views were breathtaking and we were blessed with a small snow shower before leaving. This made trip even more special being from Florida. 10/10 … would stay again.

Surprised my son for his 30th birthday with a trip with lots of family time, hiking, and eating. This place is amazing, the view is spectacular! Couldn’t ask for a better weekend. The house is equipped with anything you need in the kitchen, plenty of games, and a hiking trail right off the property. Would highly recommend

This cabin was a beautiful retreat for the weekend. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch listening to nature. The view was serene and the campfire area was wonderful. We spent a day at Red River Gorge partaking in many adventures. We would love to bring our family for a visit.
