About this property
Escape to the Woods at the Bird House in the Daniel Boone National Forest!
Escape to the woods in the wild and scenic Daniel Boone National Forest in London, Kentucky. You will love relaxing on the front or side porch or in the hammock watching the birds. Our property is a Certified National Wildlife Habitat and is home to all manner of wildlife and borders the forest. The 2-bedroom home sits up on a ridge and gets nice sunshine all day. Escape to the woods and get away from it all!
Our 22 acres is in the Daniel Boone National Forest and is relatively quiet and secluded. Surrounded by the woods, you will not see another house, car or person here, except the occasional neighbor hiker. As we to have to share the forest, you may hear occasional machinery or dragstrip noise especially on weekend nights but for the most part, it is peaceful, quiet and serene. We have always loved living here!
You have the entire top floor of the home. The unoccupied, unfinished basement is used for storage only.

About the host
Hosted by Carey & Sue Koplowitz
We escaped to the woods 2+ decades ago & love living in the forest! We have lived & visited all over the US and love where we live in the wild & scenic Daniel Boone National Forest, its like camping with all your stuff! Carey is the full-time host & property manager, while Sue, not yet retired, works behind the scene in the home office, making sure the bills get paid, the taxes filed & keeping up with our online listings.
Why they chose this property
Peaceful and secluded, borders the wild and scenic Daniel Boone National Forest, a beautiful and magical place to be, land of many adventures! Your home in the woods! Our 22-acre property borders the Daniel Boone National Forest along the northwest boundary and is about midway between Woods Creek Lake to the north, Laurel Lake to the south, City of London to the east and the Wild and Scenic Rockcastle River to the west. The natural beauty, peace and solitude in the general area is what really drew us here. Our cozy home in the Daniel Boone National Forest is in a rural, forested area. Close enough to the modern world yet far enough away to escape daily life and traffic. Its always 10 degrees cooler here in the woods! The Daniel Boone National Forest in the Appalachian foothills is a temperate, mixed mesophytic appalachian rain forest with amazing and unique flora, fauna & biota. You'll marvel at the sandstone karst terrain and caves found in this unique area. We love our little piece of the forest and hope you will too!
