This secluded âhollerâ of Kentucky was so peaceful and fun! We had everything we needed, beds were comfy and hot water for showers. Loved the door and âmodernâ lock and the fire pit! We met the owner and spent two occasions talking about the history of the cabin and local area. Charming! Thanks to the host! We truly enjoyed our stay!
There are pros and cons to staying here. If you want an 90 a night place to rest your head, you'll find that here. Other than that, wow, this ain't what I expected. It's not a place where I'd bring someone for the holidays or a romantic getaway. This is a place literally to lay your head. The shower works and there's a stove and a fridge, both were relatively clean. It just felt like staying in a shack, with wall to wall carpeting...even the bathroom. Do I think its a fair price? I'm not sure, it should cost half of what it does. If you're staying overnight while traveling, or if you have four hikers, it's appropriate, but not fit for a family. The front door looked like somethibg from Night of the Living Dead. Again, not a bad place to stay for a night, but it's not a romantic getaway
Wonderful location, we have stayed next door to this rental in another of the properties. We love that this location is away from the crowd of the gorge and the expensive restaurants. Love having a small town near by and ability to cook and relax away from loud groups. Love this Cabin. We did find hanging one of our wool blankets over the front door kept the breeze out overnight since the bedroom is so warm you have to turn the heat down. We love all the amenities and The gas stove to cook on is the best!
The property was in a quiet country setting. But the cabin itself was in terrible shape. The front door was pieced together from several different wood pieces. The porch roof had holes. The bathroom was very dark. Couldnât close the curtain of the shower because it was too dark to see. No windows in the living area. And the electrical decisions were to be questioned. Needs to put some love into it.
If you want peace and quiet and serenity this is the place to go away from traffic away from people away from the internet just you and your family and God
For us, perfect! A convenient huge step up from tent camping with a great price point. It may not be for those who need drywall or Disney but it had what we needed for a comfortable base to explore the area. Thanks for sharing it with us. The door gave us the giggles and is almost a work of art for those who can appreciate such things. There were several thoughtful touches, although you will feel good about your own carpentry skills after staying here. Be aware that we had no cell phone service.
Cool, very old cabin. We've stayed here before and enjoyed ourselves so we came back. Met the owners who were lovely people and very accommodating. Had a very nice weekend of adventuring.
Being that the property is over 160 years old it is in relatively good shape but could use some safety/aesthetic improvements. If you are tall you may have an issue with hitting your head on the doorways. My husband is 5â8â and hit his head a few times. If you have mobility issues this rental may also be problematic due to the condition of the small bridge to get to the cabin. However, everything did work in the condition that it is in. Just fyi, We did have bath towels but weâre not provided washcloths or hand towels. No smoke alarm or carbon monoxide dectector that we saw. No wifi and limited phone service. Plenty of hot water and soap/shampoo and dish soap was provided.
Small ,rustic cabin perfect for 2 people. Close to all the attractions . Would definitely stay there again for the price.
Negatives- low doors,ceilings(6'1), bumped my head a few times . The beds are 2 mattresses in the loft, but they were comfortable
this is not advertised very well, you have to be able to climb into a loft to sleep. It also is not very secure, the door could have been broke into very easily. My husband slept on the couch in case someone tried to break in, as he could not climb into the loft.
