The property also provides ample space for parking and turning around your boats and jet skis.

The cabin was amazing! The views were amazing. All the amenities that were included were amazing as well. I love that the cabin is secluded. The kids loved the drive to the cabin. We can’t wait to come back during the summer and hopefully stay longer than a few days.

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

Weekend Getaway
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.

Superb!
We cannot say enough great things about this property. From the views to the amenities they have it all! If you are looking for a peaceful retreat this is it. We can't wait to come back. We do suggest bringing your own food as there isn't much close by to either eat at or shop at. Other than that it was superb! Thanks for sharing your slice of heaven with us!

Beautiful and secluded
This property is fairly new. Its is super clean, very roomy and has plenty of entertainment. My adult children had a lot of fun in the space and there was a perfect spot for our newly parented couple to stay in the lower level where there is a small kitchenette and and half bath. We will definitely be returning!

Perfect Hideaway!
This was the perfect hideaway! We came for our daughter’s Morehead graduation! We had several people stay and more visit throughout the weekend! There was ample space, tons of outdoor seating, and it was perfect for what we needed! I would say the screened in porch is the STAR of this cabin! We spent most of our time there! Check-in was a breeze and we got to meet Kim when we pulled up as she was just finishing some work at the cabin! What a nice lady she is! I loved how remote the cabin was - you can forget about everything and just enjoy yourself!!! But you aren’t too far away from locals and stores. We will definitely stay here again!

30th Birthday 🎉
Family and friends surprised my husband with the best 30th birthday! The property and amenities all seemed brand new. We had every cooking pan/utensil needed and everything was in pristine shape. The hosts made sure the cabin was stocked with toilet paper, napkins, plenty of towels, ect. When asking questions, the host immediately got back to us every single time. We will be coming back! Also, the trail that goes through the property is an absolutely gorgeous little hike!

Hideaway weekend
Hideaway is special place with wide open spaces and a feel of a well maintained and loved cabin. Well equipped for a great weekend and time away. The thoughtful details and of course the view were what I loved the most. I feel it deserves the highest rating. Thank you Kari and Connie.
