Clean and well maintained house and property - and very well appointed. Beds are comfortable, with nice linens and towels. Used the gas grill and had everything we needed to cook our dinners. Loved sitting on the covered deck - which had comfortable furniture and a ceiling fan. Very quiet and pretty location. About a 40 minute drive to Mammoth Cave Visitors Center. Hosts were responsive. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful cabin and grounds. Cabin was easy to find, and lots of helpful amenities. Bedrooms and bathroom were roomy and convenient. Very relaxing place to stay with large furnished porch, where we sat watching deer, squirrels and lightning bugs! Highly recommend.

This cabin was so perfect! We really did not want to leave. We tried to extend our stay, but the beautiful cabin was already booked. I can’t blame them! It was the most beautifully decorated cozy place of our honeymoon trip.
