Cozy cabin close to Cave Run, bordering the Daniel Boone National Forest

Nestled in the hills near Cave Run Lake, this cabin has everything you'll need to really relax and enjoy your time away. Only 10 minutes away from Bangor Boat Ramp and Longbow Marina on Cave Run Lake. Great news for all those Muskie Anglers looking for a short trip to the waters edge! Red River Gorge and Natural Bridge are about a 45 minute drive. The large deck and fire pit are great for entertaining outside. The unique interior feels very comforting when enjoying views out into the forest or spending time relaxing on the pull-out couch. A Smart TV and Wifi will keep you in touch with the outside world, while keeping the kids entertained on rainy days. Come see why our family fell in love with this little slice of heaven. We're sure you'll love it too.

The cabin is not located in a tourist area so there are no restaurants close by. We have a fully equipped kitchen and a charcoal grill outside.

Please note that there is a steep gravel driveway to get to the cabin however, we have had no issues navigating with our mini-van.

You will encounter wildlife during your stay. Carpenter bees, wasps, lizards, spiders, opossums, toads, turtles, and ticks are all common in warm weather. It is expected that some of these crawlers will make their way into the cabin and this is not grounds for a refund - it is simply part of cabin life.

For your protection and ours, the cabin is monitored 24/7 for fire and water indoors and there is motion activated video/audio recording at driveway. We use this for check-in and check-out purposes as well as ensuring your safety during your stay.

If there is an active burn ban due to weather or wildfire season, use of the fire pit outside is prohibited. We will let you know at check-in if there is an active burn ban for the area. This will not be grounds for a refund. We love a campfire but do not want to risk the safety of our neighbors or the Daniel Boone National Forest.
During your stay at this cabin, you'll be close to Cave Run Lake. Laundry facilities are available. The cabin offers free WiFi and a kitchen.

Perfect Weekend Cabin!

This cabin was so cozy and the pictures don’t do it justice! It was perfect for our family’s long weekend. Justin and Amber were very kind and quick to respond with any questions. Overall Super cute, great location, and family friendly. We would love to go back again sometime!

Such a sweet getaway!

This was the perfect quick and cozy getaway for our family. Roasting marshmallows over the fire was a huge hit for our toddler. Our hosts went out of their way to provide and share their toddlers toys, which meant a whole lot! We also explored Daniel Boone national forest, only 15 min from our stay. Our only complaint is that we wish we had more time. Thank you to our hosts for making our quick getaway totally worth it!

Wonderful Get Away!

My husband and I decided to go to the Red River Gorge area for our 15 year anniversary. We waited a little too long to search for a cabin, but are so glad we did as we may have overlooked this gem! Although the drive to RRG was about 40 min as advertised, it was no issue at all and the bucolic scenery was so amazing! As other have said, the pics for this cabin don’t do it the justice it deserves. It was cozy, quite, very clean, and had a whole bunch of extras that we’ve never seen with other places we have stayed (e.g., access to a vacuum so we could clean up some ourselves, extra paper towels and toilet paper, even butter if we needed it!). Check in was smooth as could be and the owner responded to my question via text in mere minutes. This cabin is amazing! Loved it!

Great Stay!

We really enjoyed the Cabin!. It was very clean and had everything you would need. Very peaceful and comfortable. We really appreciated the mowed walking path and assortment of books. The arcade game was awesome! Has several Dollar Stores close by and an IGA not to far from the cabin. Owners were very helpful and responsive! We hope to come back soon. Was a lovely way for us to spend our 9th anniversary!

Perfect getaway.

I spent five nights here to clear my head and do some hiking. Super clean cabin with everything you need to unwind. Great communication throughout. Birds galore to watch from the porch. Wish I couldn’t stayed another five nights!

Everything you need

Before our stay here at this cabin, I messaged the owner and asked numerous questions on recommendations and places to go. The owner responded in a great manner and gave me very good options to check out. They responded quickly, and were very polite. When we arrive to the cabin, it is pretty secluded, which is what we were looking for. The cabin was extremely clean, and had more than what the listing describes. There are plenty of games, places to sleep, and a variety of kitchen utensils. I would love to stay at this listing again!

Such a charming little forest nook!

We have nothing but good things to say about our stay here! The owners were gracious and kind in their communication. There was clearly a lot of thought put into the amenities and organization (plus super cute rustic decor!)- it was very easy to navigate when we were looking for things. I cannot recommend this cabin in Daniel Boone Forest enough :)
