About this property

Briar Patch Cabin RRG: Firepit, Sunset, WIFI

Located along the outskirts of the Red River Gorge Scenic Byway, this cabin is perfectly situated to host travelers who are seeking both privacy and convenience. Spend a leisurely afternoon at the cabin surrounded by nature or take a short drive to explore the area and all the beauty that it has to offer.

The Briar Patch was thoughtfully designed to host anywhere from 1 to 6 people without making guests feel too cramped or in a space that’s too large to feel comfortable. Its rustic interior creates the perfect mood for this dreamy mountaintop vacation home.

This cabin features a king bedroom on the main floor. You can binge watch episodes of your favorite tv series on the 50” smart tv, or if you prefer a more quiet bedtime routine, enjoy the peacefulness of near zero outside noise infiltration. Wake up and pull back the curtains on the windows that look out to the gorgeous wooded surroundings. Upstairs in the spacious loft area, other guests will experience a comfortable night’s sleep as well. This is a great space for adults and children alike, with a queen bed and two twin beds. It allows for a semi-private escape for couples or an ideal setup for kids to have their own vacation space. Easy access to the loft with a custom built stow-away ladder makes having access to this extra space even better.

The living room is spacious enough to accommodate everyone for family game night around the warm glow of the electric fireplace. The attached kitchen area makes cooking up a meal for friends simple and easy. Everything is within an arm’s reach and with a blend of both vintage and modern amenities, guests are sure to love putting this space to use.

A full bathroom on the main level makes for easy access for all guests with “Jack & Jill” doors opening from both the living room and the king bedroom. A washer and dryer is great to have for rinsing all of the dirt away from the exciting adventures you’re sure to have!

Through the atrium-style full glass doors in the living room, step out onto the spacious back deck where all of your stresses are sure to melt away. An outdoor dining table, bed swing and rocking chairs are all inviting seating options to relax and bask in the sunsets each evening. Mornings can be spent with a hot cup of coffee or a chapter or two with your favorite book, surrounded by tranquil sounds of nature.

At the front of the cabin, a sizable deck area provides an easy entryway from the gravel walkway and parking area. The fire pit awaits S’mores and campfire stories while under the night sky. There’s very little light pollution here, making this side of the property top notch for stargazing!

Either way you choose to spend your time here, will be time well spent! Even the drive out to the property is pleasant and full of idyllic scenery.

I can’t say enough good things about this cabin! There were so many lovely touches, from all of the decorations to all of the wonderful items to make our stay comfortable! The cabin was so charming and the view was so peaceful and pretty! I especially loved how well organized and well-stocked the kitchen was, the lovely balcony with the table, swinging chair and furniture to admire the gorgeous view, the adorable fire pit, and the comfy beds!

Cabin was perfect! I loved reading about how their dream cabin came to fruition in their bio binder. Communication was spot on. Decor was gorgeous. You can tell they put their heart into their home. Kitchen and bathroom had everything you’d need and then some (son forgot his toothbrush and there were extras in the drawer) Back porch was gorgeous and I LOVED the deep porch swing. I spent most of the afternoon and morning on it. Cabin was secluded, yet not too far from Natural Bridge and other points of interest. I would definitely stay here again

This was by far the best cabin we’ve stayed in over the years of traveling. The attention to detail was fabulous. Built right, decorated right, comfortable and spotless. Quiet country setting to come back to after enjoying the park. We will definitely stay here again in the future!! Thanks for everything!

This was our favorite place that we stayed on our vacation as we drove from West Va through Kentucky to Indy. We were there only one night, but wish we could have stayed longer! Beautiful house and property-decorated so nicely and spotless! We cooked dinner and the kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were comfy and the porch out back is lovely.
