About this property

Red River Gorge Glamping Tent: Cozy Winter Escape w/ Hot-Tub

Welcome to your woodland getaway in the heart of Kentucky’s Red River Gorge. This cozy bell tent sits within a small glamping village on 13 wooded acres, offering a peaceful basecamp for hikers, climbers, families, couples, or anyone craving a quiet reset surrounded by nature.

Inside the tent, you’ll find soft rugs, comfortable furnishings, a queen bed with an electric blanket, a powerful space heater, a mini fridge, and warm ambient lighting — everything you need to stay cozy even on chilly Appalachian nights. Think camping, but gentler.

Step outside onto the private deck and enjoy access to the communal meadow fire pit, perfect for stargazing and slow evenings with your complimentary s’mores kit. You’re also just steps away from our newest amenity: a shared outdoor hot tub in the common area — ideal for warming up after a long hike or simply unwinding beneath the trees.

A short footpath leads to the modern outhouse-style bathhouse, featuring private hot-water showers and clean individual restroom stalls.

Located just 25 minutes from Red River Gorge’s most loved trails and Natural Bridge State Resort Park, The Retreat at High Rock combines rustic simplicity with thoughtful comforts. Whether you’re here for adventure or restoration, this cozy tent offers a warm, inviting place to land.

Great for: hikers, couples, solo travelers, peaceful weekends, unplugged escapes, and winter glamping.
The accommodation is heated and features a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi. The accommodation also includes a fireplace.

it was absolutely so cute there. The host was so fast to communicate. As soon as we got there we were even given an electric blanket which was the perfect touch to the night! The bathroom were so clean and easy to get to! Highly recommend.

The yurt was clean and comfortable, I loved the location! The firepit had firewood stocked there for the evenings, and the bed was comfortable!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Once we got there our yurt it was flooded after a struggle to get a hold of someone we got moved to what they say was the same size yurt but I don't belive it. They did clean up all the water and we got to stay in the yurt we originally rented. You can definitely smell the wetness and the serge protector was still in a small puddle of water. After reaching out they express my disappointment I received a what i feel like was a rude response to my email. I will nog be back definitely not worth the money or stress of staying here!!!!

Sara really enjoyed her stay. One potential improvement is communication at time of arrival.
