We enjoyed our stay at Barren River very much. The kitchen had everything we needed as we like to cook our own meals. The rooms were cozy and comfortable. My kids enjoyed the playroom/hangout space downstairs. The artwork/decor was probably my favorite touch. The host was quick to respond to our questions and was very good to us during our stay.

Great short trip to cave country

We booked a last minute stay during our kids' spring break and were very happy with the home. There was plenty of space for our family of 4 and 2 small dogs, and it was well furnished with everything needed for cooking a couple meals at home. Quiet neighborhood with a private feel, an easy base for day trips to Cave City and Bowling Green.

Great cabin close to Mammoth Cave National Park.

This is a great rental located within a short driving distance of Mammoth Cave National Park. We would definitely stay here again. Our only issue was we couldn't find pot holders to use to take stuff out of the oven but we made due.

Perfect getaway for a group of friends

We stayed two nights with another family for a low key getaway for my husband’s 40th birthday. We grilled out, hung out by the fire and just enjoyed the downtime. There were lots of things to entertain the kids, from games to tinker toys; and the property was just beautiful. We will definitely keep this one in our list of places to revisit!!

About the host

Hosted by MELISSA

Host profile image
We strive to make your stay at our cabins an exceptional experience. We are constantly upgrading and making improvements like new furniture, professional landscaping, a bubbling boulder and a chapel for guests who want to get married. We have recently started featuring the same luxury spa sheets used in 97% of Forbes 5-Star resorts. Once you stay with us you will see the difference.


Why they chose this property

It is truly one of a kind! You'll never see another like it. It's remarkable to see much less stay in. The little log cabins in the back yard next to the fire pits make it even more endearing. There's a tree in back we call "The Hugging Tree" because it looks as if the trees are hugging. We've recently added a chapel for weddings and a bubbling boulder.

What makes this property unique

Close to Mammoth Cave. The Narrows Marina is a mile from the cabin, where you can swim, fish, boat, picnic and go on walking trails. Conveniently located for Mammoth Cave, Dinosaur World, Lost River Cave, Beech Bend or National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green.
