The Space:
Welcome to Belay Station! In climbing, a belay station is the rallying point where climbers gather before their ascent. Whether your RRG plans are hiking, climbing or you’re are just in need of a place to unwind, we want Belay Station to be your rallying point. And if you must log on while you’re here, Belay Sation boasts 500mbps high speed internet – great for gaming or setting up your vacation office.
Belay Station sits at the end of a quiet semi-private road, perched on a hill with tree-lined views making it the ideal spot for a peaceful soak in the hot tub or stargazing by the fire.
Begin your morning with a warm cup of coffee or hot tea, prepared at the fully equipped coffee station. Take a seat on the deck and enjoy the spectacular sunrise. If you prefer to sleep in, you can rest easy with the black-out window treatments in each bedroom. Enjoy the large bathroom and custom shower featuring everything you need to start your day.
If you plan on spending a day inside, Belay station features four streaming Roku TVs, and an entertainment loft with a two-player Classic Arcade Table, Brunswick Air Hockey, mini fridge, board games and a 55” TV.
Whether dining out or dining in, Belay Station has you covered. Centrally located to the best restaurants the gorge has to offer, it’s just a quick trip to great food or nightlife. If you prefer to relax and enjoy a home cooked meal, the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need: air fryer, toaster, blender, pots and pans, and a wide assortment of utensils. For those who love to cook outside, Belay Station offers a charcoal park grill and a four-burner gas grill for the grill master in all of us!
After spending a day away on an adventure, there’s so many options to unwind. Take a soak in the hot tub, have smores by the fire pit, get cozy in the rocking chairs, or just hang out and rest by the electric fireplace and TV. When you’re ready to turn in, Belay Station offers two queen beds with luxe sheets, pillows and Duvets.
We sincerely hope you enjoy everything the gorge has to offer and your time at Belay Station. The gorge is our home away from home. Our wish is that your stay creates lasting memories, and you return to experience this beautiful area of Kentucky again.

The Neighborhood:
Belay Station is located in the brand-new Shawnee Run development, a quiet and growing cabin community just a few minutes down the road from The Gorge Underground. The area feels peaceful and tucked away, yet you’ll see a handful of other modern cabins nearby, giving the neighborhood a comfortable and welcoming feel.
You’ll be close to all the best spots in the Red River Gorge. It’s roughly 10 minutes to Natural Bridge State Park, Miguel’s Pizza, Daniel Boone Coffee Shop, and the RRG Zipline, making this an ideal home base for exploring, hiking, climbing, or grabbing a bite between adventures.
