About this property
Green Heron’s Nest-Lux Camping Tent in the Gorge️
Summary: Retreat to the forest in what's sure to be one of the most unique, refreshing vacations you've been on so far! Nestled right next to Red River Gorge Kentucky, this tent has been designed specifically to make camping feel luxurious, easy, and relaxing! Our luxury glamping tents are thick enough to ensure that you stay nice and cozy, but allow light to diffuse throughout the whole tent.
Our goal is to make outdoor retreats accessible to as many folks as possible - we'd love to host you.
The Space: Surrounded by over 50 acres of national forest, including countless onsite activities and local attractions, you’ll be able to enjoy all of the adventure you want during the day and return to comfortable, cozy lodging at night.
🏕 Important: Towels are NOT provided at this time
Tent #6 (Green Heron) Ease-of-access Notes: - This tent pairs incredibly well with The Bluejay's Nest (A queen bed) or, on the opposite side, The Goldfinch's Nest (Queen bed, fold-down couch) right next door! - The Green Heron is a very short walk from the bathhouse. All you have to do is take a 20-foot hike and cross the driveway! - We estimate the walk to take 30 to 45 seconds - You do not have to go uphill or downhill
This space includes: - 1 Queen Bed - 1 Twin Bed - 1 Fold-Down Couch (Full - must bring your own pillows and blankets) - Gas Fireplace - Privacy Flaps - Private sitting area - Cots Available (must bring your own pillows and blankets) - Large 65qt Cooler (must bring your own ice)
Additional amenities include: - Private Front Porch - Canopy Views - Private Fire Pit (firewood not provided) - On-site Bathhouse (with toilet, sink, and hot shower) - Outdoor Charcoal Grill - Outdoor Nets to climb/play on - Outdoor Water Spigot (for drinking water)
Camping in Red River Gorge has never been so easy, luxurious, OR cozy! If you're hoping for a unique, incredibly cool stay, visit and see all that our 50-acre woods have to offer!
You might notice some construction near Tent #7 at the bottom of the hill! We're building a retreat clubhouse called The Rookery; we apologize for any visual or audible disruptions, but work shouldn't happen on the weekend, or before 9am / after 6pm on weekdays.
We're working hard to finish it up and return the on-site experience back to being fully serene and relaxing! Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we continue to grow and improve our space.
** Our tents are semi-off-grid, which means no plumbing or water inside, however, there is electricity, heating, lights, and water from an outdoor spigot. We also have a fully on-grid bathhouse with septic, electricity, and instant hot water**
The Neighborhood: On most of the 50 acres, you won't see anything man-made. This creates a fully immersive experience for you. Also, you’ll be on privately owned property with designated hiking trails (map included); please hike, explore, and allow yourself to be free!
* There are other guests that you’ll be sharing the 50 acres with, so don’t free yourself completely, if you know what we mean *
The property also has tons of natural features. The tents sit atop a giant horseshoe of cliff-edges; as you explore, you’ll find sweeping, scenic views of our valley, a waterfall, natural rock overhangs, creeks, and acres more of wildlife! If you need to get off-property and want to do some fun, local activities, we’re within minutes of local attractions like world-class climbing and hiking, ziplining, underground kayaking (yeah, you heard us), horseback riding, and so many more things! Not to mention all of the wonderful local restaurants you can visit -- don’t worry, we’ve sampled them all and have listed our top 5 in the guestbook and on our website.
If you aren't familiar with Red River Gorge and the surrounding areas, don’t worry -- we'll send you a list of our favorite off-site activities. We want your time away to be extraordinary!
Other Things to Note: ** Our tents are semi-off-grid, which means no plumbing or water inside, however, there is electricity, heating, lights, and water from an outdoor spigot. We also have a fully on-grid bathhouse with septic, electricity, and instant hot water**
