About this property

Cave Run Red River Gorge Cabin

  • This A frame cabin is a unique 2.5 acre getaway that is nestled in the Daniel Boone
    National Forest just minutes away from Cave Run Lake, Broke Leg Falls, Red River Gorge, Morehead, and about 45 minutes from Carter Caves! You will be surrounded by nothing but nature. If you love the outdoors there is plenty to keep you busy... hiking, fishing, boating, kayaking, mountain biking, golfing, and of course if you just want a place to get away from it all this is your spot. There is a gas and charcoal fire grill to cook those burgers and roast the hot dogs. Fire pit out back perfect to roast marshmallows, eat smores and tell a few scary ghost stories. It’s a great place to escape and enjoy the simple simple things in life.

    Other things to note
    The cabin is at the end of the gravel driveway. The driveway has a steep incline to get
    up to the main road when leaving the cabin. In the case of rain/snow I would suggest
    parking at the top and walking down to the cabin. We do have pillows/towels/bed linens
    available.
    -We do not have any closets, dressers and/or hangers
    -We do have a washer &; dryer but it is NOT for the use of guests.
    -The cabin is in the middle of Daniel Boone National Forest so therefore you might see
    bugs and other animals that live there.
    -We do ask that guests take all the food from the fridge/take trash out and clean dishes
    before they leave the cabin.

    Where you’ll be
    Wellington, Kentucky, United States
    The neighborhood is very quite, and honestly you won’t see anyone because the cabin is very private you can't see it from the road.

Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay! The property was very easy to find and very clean. The beds were comfortable, and we enjoyed the fire pit. The view from the back of the cabin was gorgeous! We loved sitting on the back porch. The location is part of a neighborhood of sorts with other cabins nearby, but still felt that I had plenty of privacy. A few minor things are a bit worn out: the glass platform in the microwave seems to be the wrong model so it doesn’t spin, the toilet sometimes would run forever and needed to be fixed manually in the tank, the foot pedal of the trash can didn’t work, the screen to one of the upstairs balcony doors is broken, some lightbulbs on the porch are burnt out, and the cooking pans are peeling teflon so we didn’t use them. The air conditioning units worked well, but if you are bothered by loud noises be aware they are very loud.Overall a good stay, especially for the good price.

A great private cabin!

We loved our stay here! It is such a cute, quaint little cabin and we felt right at home. We loved the fire pit and used it each night. As others have mentioned the driveway is steep but we had no problems getting up and down. It is quite a drive to natural bridge and other locations but we had beautiful weather so we didn’t mind it. Overall a great place that I would recommend to others!
