The cabin itself is great and is well-air conditioned and equipped. Our three kids loved the loft and it was nice having kitchen to have breakfast in before going out to explore Mammoth Cave and go horseback riding. We also liked the porch, but were not out on it much, as we discovered there was a hornet’s nest in the bird feeder on the porch. The neighborhood is fairly run down, and some of the roads are blocked off as “private”, so we couldn’t drive around to see the lake. We had planned to utilize the Nolin Lake State Park beach while we were there in mid-July, but were surprised to learn the beach had been closed since April when there were damaging floods. There was no immediate indication when googling the beach that it was closed, so it was a disappointment. We ended up leaving a day early because we’d run out of family activities to do. If you are looking for fresh(ish) food, make sure to pack it and bring it with you, as the shops within a 40 min drive are really limited with their offerings.

Mammoth Cave Adventures w/ a quiet cottage

We thought the cottage was quiet and secluded. Everything was easily accessible and the porch was perfect for a morning cup of coffee. The firepit was far enough from the house to not make everything smell Smokey. Wildlife was beautiful to include a skink (lizard), deer, cat and a screech owl at night. The Lakeside Cafe at the end of the road was absolutely delicious! Pizzas were amazing and cinnamon rolls and breakfast casseroles were scrumptious before heading out to the caves.

Nice gateway for Mammoth Cave NP

Great cabin for a short summer vacation in Mammoth Cave. Very easy check in, check out process. One of the cleanest vrbo we had stayed in. Very comfortable and nicely decorared. Keep in mind, driving to the park visitor center is about 40 minutes. That is where all cave tours start. We really enjoyed biking and hiking in the park as well. Also, keep in mind that Nolin lake park is closed due to flood damage. I didnt realized it and was kind of dissapointed that we couldnt use their beach area and hiking trails. Overall it was a great stay. Recommended.

Perfect weekend getaway

Our family just stayed for two nights here to visit Mammoth Cave and it was the perfect cabin. We spent a ton of time on the giant covered porch enjoying the outdoors and fresh air. The kids loved playing and sleeping up in the loft and the adults appreciated the kitchen with all we needed to cook dinners.

Passing through / Mammoth Cave

We stayed at Robin’s Nest on our way from Florida to Illinois. This is a lovely cabin, and we really enjoyed it (despite an unusual amount of rainfall for this area, April 2025). Our host was accommodating and responded quickly to my questions. The house is has most everything you’ll need. We would stay again! Things to know: The county is dry so BYOB, there is a DG Market close by, a small grocery store is 15-20 drive away. Because we were road tripping I had a cooler with food supplies so we could cook in.We loved Lakeside Cafe for breakfast (Bonnie & Daryl are great) and Webb’s Roadside Mart/Grill on HWY 78. Seriously the BEST ribeye steak dinner!

Relaxing getaway by the Lake and National Park

My daughter and I thoroughly enojoyed our stay here for her spring break. This was a nice location to the Mammoth Caves, which is worth a trip if you have never been! But, even better, this location is nestled in by Nolin Lake, which is so peaceful and quiet. The owner is great, they respond quickly and go the extra step to make sure you enjoy your stay! ggreat!

As advertised, it was a nice comfortable stay. Neighborhood got a little noisy with other vacationers aroound but we were in the off season and only lasted a few minutes. Close enough to many attractions but far enough away to not feel crowded.

A lovely cabin in the woods. The neighborhood was very quiet with plenty of wildlife to see. It's about a half hour from town but there's a DG market right down the road if you need anything. We enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings.

Mammoth Cave Stay

We stayed at this beautiful cabin while visiting Mammoth Caves. The location was so quiet and peaceful and my family loved having space to spread out and relax. We cooked, had a fire in the fire pit, and had meals out on the porch. Everything was provided and thought of and we didn’t need a thing. The inside and outside of the cabin were beautiful and we would definitely stay again!

Mammoth Cave trip

Cabin is secluded and nicely decorated. Has beds for 5, but unless I had elementary to middle school children it is better suited to 2 adults. It has 1 bath and the door has a slight gap upon closure so you would need to be careful with privacy for 2 couples. It is about 30 minutes from Mammoth Cave, but not a bad drive. Nolin Lake is pretty but not much to do on it if you don’t bring.your own boat, canoe, etc. It was a good place for us to stay for a quick 3 day trip. It had the basic items to cook a meal. Do know that this property requires you purchase insurance for damage so add that to the cost of the stay. This was the first time I was required to do that. We had a nice time and the hosts were responsive. The fire pit area was nice but we did not take advantage of it. The porch on the cabin is lovely. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your cabin.
