Enjoy a quiet evening gazing at the stars around a bonfire at our large fire pit near the pond. Or take it easy on the covered deck attached to the pole barn only steps away from the cabin. Toilet and sink are located in the pole barn (cabin has no facilities).
There is a nice private open area just beyond the fire pit for nearly any activity or game. Play corn hole, throw a frisbee into the disc golf net, play kickball or bring an inflatable pool and fill it up with water from our hose and simply enjoy the peace and quiet this property has to offer. You can sleigh ride down the hill when it snows. Many options here!
Come out to the country and enjoy the fresh air and space to roam. You deserve it!

Cabin Stay near Mammoth Cave
This is a great property for a weekend trip, with under an hour to the Mammoth Cave National Park. There are also plenty of other options around the area such as canoeing/kayaking and fishing. Martin was a great host and very helpful through the whole booking experience. The online listing is accurate to the property and cabin. I would highly recommend a stay here!

Glamping with the family
It was a lovely rustic glamping experience. The kids loved fishing and relaxing and the dog loved running around. Great driving distance to Mammoth Caves. The owner is awesome and very thoughtful. It cabin is clean and rustic and perfect size.
Absolutely one of the most charming getaways yet! Our country location made our visit to Mammoth Cave National Park fantastic. It was enlightened by the property itself and dealing with one of the most kindest and thoughtful host ever! We arrived on Monday and was greeted by Martin. He made sure to be there when we arrived just to show us around and explain the generator system since that is what powers the power in the sleeping cabin. Since our trip was during some of the coldest nights yet, Martin made sure to equip us with enough propane to run the generator for our entire stay. He even supplied the extra blankets for my kiddos since we were limited on what we packed since coming from long distance.
The property was beautiful! We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit as well as the river for fishing. If you’re looking for a charming country atmosphere to unwind this is it!
