Great place to stay in Southern Kentucky

We had a great time at this location. The property was beautiful, and the house was perfect for our reunion. The host stayed in contact throughout the entire process, and we were well-informed and confident she would meet all of our needs. We will stay here again if we get the opportunity. I would recommend it to your family as well.

The log cabin on the Horse ranch was fantastic. Jade the host was great to work with. She was very communicative from a week before the trip. We got all the required info to check in and plenty of options for visiting around the area. We took her advice and went for an attraction which we were not aware of. Just 25 min from Mammoth caves and Corvette museum makes it a top spot to reserve. Our kids got to view the horses early in the morning and they were thrilled 😁. The rooms were clean and plenty of towels were provided for our stay. This place can house a party of 3 families comfortably. Would recommend to anyone who is visiting Mammoth caves national park .

Beautiful, Peaceful Cabin with Great Location – Highly Recommend!

Our stay at this cabin was fantastic! The property was beautifully maintained, spacious, and perfect for our family. One of our favorite moments was enjoying morning coffee on the porch while watching the horses—it was such a peaceful experience. The location was excellent, offering easy access to Mammoth Cave and some great local restaurants. We highly recommend this cabin for a relaxing and memorable getaway!

This place was in the country, but not so far out that you could not get to the interstate and get to places (so close to Buc-ees!) It was quite, and off the highway. When pulling up, you don't really get a feel of how big the house is until you are inside. Seeing horses and cows around was really nice to drink your morning coffee to! Jade was a fantastic host, constantly in touch to see if we needed anything, offering places to go or see, she even offered a horse feeding experience with my 6 year old, who just loved it there! The house was roomy and clean. With clear instructions on what was where, and what to do for checkout. I could not have asked for a better place to stay!

We absolutely loved the home and property! The home was so clean and stocked beyond our expectations. The owner Jade was incredible with communication and helpfulness.

The house is furnished with everything to serve meals up to 25 . Also beautiful dinnerware both rustic & formal. With tall windows to take advantage of the beautiful views of rolling hills and meadows. There is decking around the house for outdoor entertaining. Perfect for large groups (has been used for rehearsal dinners and weddings) As well as a gas grill for you to use. Also a fire-pit for family fun to enjoy s'mores and roast marshmallows. If you want to enjoy local attractions: The home is 15 minutes to Mammoth Cave in 1 direction, 15 minutes to Bowling Green in the other Beech Bend is 10-12 minutes, Corvette Museum is 10 minutes. Glasgow is 15 minutes east of the house. Nashville is 40 minutes south. The house has 2 grocery stores 5 minutes away.Boat ramp and lake at Bailey Point about 20 minutes away. The driveway easily accommodates trucks with trailers. As well as tons of parking behind the house and at the barn.
