• A Note About Nature:
You’re staying in the heart of Kentucky’s Red River Gorge, surrounded by the beautiful Appalachian Mountains and all the nature that comes with them. While our cabins are professionally cleaned and routinely treated for pests, occasional insects and other woodland visitors may still make an appearance—especially during warmer months. This is a natural part of staying in a heavily wooded mountain environment and does not necessarily indicate a cleanliness or pest-control issue.

Spend your days hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, fishing, zip lining, boating, or sightseeing, then come back for dinner on the grill and a relaxing evening around the firepit.
