-- THE CABIN --

Master Bedroom: Queen Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Living Room: Twin air mattress

Enjoy an isolated, wooded escape with the comfort of a highly-rated care team available for any concerns you might have during your stay at the 'Mountain Spirit Cabin,' located just 10 minutes from the entrance to the Red River Gorge!

Start off your days by reading a book at the outdoor table on the deck , which has plenty of seating for 5 guests, or sprawling out on the futon in the living room and checking the weather forecast for your trip on the 55" 4K UHD Smart TV . Guests love how the great room fills with ample amounts of natural sunlight each morning while they sip their coffee.

The property offers guests a fully equipped kitchen with a 4-burner electric stove top, oven, dishwasher, toaster, blender, coffee maker, and microwave that is perfect for trying out new recipes or sticking with your known favorites. Enjoy your feast at the 6-person dining room table as you catch up with your travel companions.

There is no better way to slip into deep relaxation after a long day of hiking than enjoying the hot tub on the deck. Following your hot tub session, head over to the fire pit and create a bonfire for everyone to huddle around.

When you are ready to turn in for the night, retreat to 1 of 2 bedrooms complete with tasteful furnishings, and cloud-like queen mattresses for the ultimate sleeping experience. Please note, this is a two story home!

-- THE AREA --

Guests flock to the Red River Gorge for its prime location on the outskirts of the Appalachian Mountains. A 4-wheel drive is highly recommended. The mountains are the perfect place for families to introduce children to the joys of nature or for the experienced outdoor enthusiast to sharpen his or her skills on the countless miles of hiking trails. Be sure to check out the Red River Gorge Scenic Byway, just a few minutes away!

15 minutes away, you'll find the Natural Bridge State Resort Park where you can take a leisurely sky lift to the top of the sandstone arch and hike out to Lookout Pointe and Lovers Leap.

There are a few options located within a short driving distance of the cabin if you are hungry for the local cuisine. Sky Bridge Station is a 22-minute drive from the cabin and offers delicious gourmet hot dogs. A healthy local option is Red River Rockhouse which is a 30-minute drive away from the cabin! Head over to Hops for ice cream made in house and monthly brewery and distillery takeovers.

Cute cabin but...
The cabin was cute. It has everything a family would need. Washer and dryer, cooking equipment, games, soaps and paper towels etc. but it should be better maintained. We arrived late at night only to find out that the beds had not been cleaned and were filthy. Lots of long hairs, crumbs, etc. there were no extra sheets so we had to wash everything before we could sleep. My young daughters were exhausted and we had to put them on the couch to sleep while we got everything washed and dried. Because of that we did not know if anything else was clean truly. All the blankets were thrown into a hamper but we're not folded so we assumed those were forgotten just like the beds. All in all it was ok but was definitely expecting the basics to be covered

Birthday Get Away
It was a very nice, clean and cute cabin! 16 minutes away from a town/kroger lol! A quick drive to Red River Gorge. The little road up to the cabin was a little rough but both my mini SUV and my friends car made it up with no problems! 10/10 would totally stay here again!

Family Mountain Getaway
This was our family’a first visit to the area. The cabin was beautiful and the perfect size for our family of four. We hiked daily, shopped locally, ate delicious food, and came back to our cozy cabin. We played lots of board games, watched movies, enjoyed the hot tub. It was the percent winter reset. Thanks so much for everything.

I don’t have enough wonderful things to say about our stay at Mountain Spirit! The cabin was clean, well kept, and fully stocked with any and all supplies we needed during our stay (kitchen/cooking supplies, tons of blankets, and all necessary household items). We brought our two dogs and they loved the cabin as much as we did! We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub nightly after hiking all day and had a fire in the fire pit out back the last night. We loved how quiet and serene the area was surrounding the cabin and how it was just a short drive to all local attractions/hiking spots. We can’t wait to return for another visit!

We loved our stay at the cabin. It was nicely located tucked in the woods but still only 15-20 min from area attractions. We were able to take advantage of the clean kitchen, and bed & baths were also welcoming. Would definitely stay again!!

Perfect Gorge Cabin!
This was the perfect last minute gorge trip with the most perfect cabin! 10 minutes from just about everything you would want to visit made it the ideal location too! The cabin was clean, comfortable, cozy and exactly how it was described and pictured! The gorge experience, however, is one that pictures don’t do justice! We would most definitely stay here again!

Thanksgiving get away
The cabin was very nice. We loved the outside balcony. Very convenient to the gorge. The kitchen was well equipped maybe some wine glasses would be nice. The hot tub was enjoyable. We just had to dig out some hair. Lol Not to big of a deal. I would have left the place a little cleaner but couldn’t find a pan or broom. Kristen was very nice and responded to our questions quickly. Thanks

Cozy Cabin in the Woods
This was a beautiful property with a cozy, little cabin, built on the side of a hill. I was a little concerned with the single lane, gravel, access road that was needed to get up and down the hill, but we managed just fine. Once there, the cabin was perfect for the four of us – not too big not too small. Kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, cooking ware, etc. A perfect spot for your next trip to RRG. Our thanks to the owners for a wonderful time!

The driveway
There was moss on the pavement which caused my buddy to have a wreck on his motorcycle. Also there was no notice that the drive switched to gravel straight up the side of the mountain . Wouldnt advise anyone to take there motorcycle up even though I made it . It was very risky .
