Cave Run Red River Gorge Cabin

This A frame cabin is a unique 2.5 acre getaway that is nestled in the Daniel Boone
National Forest just minutes away from Cave Run Lake, Broke Leg Falls, Red River Gorge, Morehead, and about 45 minutes from Carter Caves! You will be surrounded by nothing but nature. If you love the outdoors there is plenty to keep you busy... hiking, fishing, boating, kayaking, mountain biking, golfing, and of course if you just want a place to get away from it all this is your spot. There is a gas and charcoal fire grill to cook those burgers and roast the hot dogs. Fire pit out back perfect to roast marshmallows, eat smores and tell a few scary ghost stories. It’s a great place to escape and enjoy the simple simple things in life.

Other things to note
The cabin is at the end of the gravel driveway. The driveway has a steep incline to get
up to the main road when leaving the cabin. In the case of rain/snow I would suggest
parking at the top and walking down to the cabin. We do have pillows/towels/bed linens
available.
-We do not have any closets, dressers and/or hangers
-We do have a washer &; dryer but it is NOT for the use of guests.
-The cabin is in the middle of Daniel Boone National Forest so therefore you might see
bugs and other animals that live there.
-We do ask that guests take all the food from the fridge/take trash out and clean dishes
before they leave the cabin.

Where you’ll be
Wellington, Kentucky, United States
The neighborhood is very quite, and honestly you won’t see anyone because the cabin is very private you can't see it from the road.

Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay! The property was very easy to find and very clean. The beds were comfortable, and we enjoyed the fire pit. The view from the back of the cabin was gorgeous! We loved sitting on the back porch. The location is part of a neighborhood of sorts with other cabins nearby, but still felt that I had plenty of privacy. A few minor things are a bit worn out: the glass platform in the microwave seems to be the wrong model so it doesn’t spin, the toilet sometimes would run forever and needed to be fixed manually in the tank, the foot pedal of the trash can didn’t work, the screen to one of the upstairs balcony doors is broken, some lightbulbs on the porch are burnt out, and the cooking pans are peeling teflon so we didn’t use them. The air conditioning units worked well, but if you are bothered by loud noises be aware they are very loud.Overall a good stay, especially for the good price.

We weren’t sure what to expect as we are from Wisconsin and wanted a short getaway from the cold. Cabin was nice, and had everything we needed for a nice stay. Being the temperatures got cold at times, the home has some small electric fireplaces. Add one more fireplace to 2nd bedroom as it does get cold in there. Owner was responsive and gave great instructions on check in and directions. The area is not very populated, so make sure you have fun things planned ahead of time and locations. We had a good stay and was nice to get away for Christmas break.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Was not very clean. I did contact the host and he had someone come and clean the things requested but the place needs a deep clean. You will NOT be able to get a car down the driveway. Jeep or 44 maybe. It's really not that steep, it's the loose gravel. I went down in my AWD but slid and almost got stuck on the way back up. Unless he has fixed it, park at the top. And I will say the trek walking up and down is a lot. So hauling all your stuff up and down is a lot! Its a cute cabin but not well taken care of. Looked at grill and its not been maintained or cleaned. I would not stay here again.

Overall we had a great stay. The location is great if you want seclusion! The driveway is very steep, do not recommend bringing a car! We used our 4-wheel drive/AWD going up and down. It is not trailer friendly, if you’re bringing ATVs or anything like that. There are two twin beds in one room & a queen in the other. Loved that the couches reclined and there are towels available to use, along with washer & dryer. We enjoyed the fire pit and hammock. There’s a Dollar General 2 miles away, if you need a quick run to the store.

Overall good experience! Cute place. Driveway as mentioned is tricky. We didn’t have a car with 4-wheel drive and were advised to park at the top. The walk going up and down wasn’t the smoothest but not terrible.
