We had a wonderful time at this cabin! It's beautiful, spacious, and well-stocked, and everything was exactly as pictured. The cabin feels extremely peaceful and secluded, while only being about 20 minutes away from plenty of stores, restaurants, and shopping centers. Kellie, the host, was very responsive, helpful, and kind throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend this property, and we definitely plan to stay here again!

Advanced Camp Getaway

We chose this property due to its close proximity to Ft. Knox, only about an 18 minute drive. Our daughter was graduating from Advanced Camp, and this option was so much more convenient and affordable than multiple hotel rooms. We have stayed in multiple VRBO and Airbnb properties, and i have to say that this is the best of the best. Our host, Kellie, thought of everything and more. Surpassed my expectations in every aspect. The property was well taken care of, with so much character. The bathrooms were well stocked with everything you could need. The cabin was spotless. The beds were so comfortable, and the five of us had plenty of room to spread out.Ten out of ten would recommend. Thank you Kellie!!

Great Cabin! A Real Gem!!

Super clean and very well stocked! I always pack things that are needed but never there and that was not an issue here. So peaceful. Away from the hustle and bustle of life. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Spent a lot of time on the porch enjoying the outdoors and watching river traffic. Thank you for offering your cabin to others!

Despite mother nature getting in our way - we really enjoyed our short stay at this beautiful cabin. Wonderful communication with the property manager/owner - she did everything to make us feel at home and even called us ahead of time to tell us bad weather was coming. Highly recommend this place and we would absolutely go back!

We went for my husband’s 40th and had family join us also. The house was perfect and venturing around the property was great for our kids. Lots of barges passing for the kids to enjoy. Kellie our host was super responsive and helpful for any travel needs we had. About 40 minutes to Louisville for all of the their fun restaurants and distilleries but 20 minutes fromGrocery shopping and such. The pictures do not do it justice, it is stunning. Hoping to get back here again.

Wonderful Cozy Cabin

We got to experience West Point’s famous flooding first hand! Kelli was so helpful and the house is so cozy and comfortable. The weather kept us inside but the kitchen was fantastic and we had fun cooking and playing games in the beautiful common area. We would definitely like to come back in the spring or summer!

Perfect get away!

We have traditionally rented a cabin in TN. Wanted to find a place more local. WOW did we find the perfect place. We have found our new get away spot. Perfect does not describe our stay. Kellie was very responsive and helpful. The cabin was clean, quiet and relaxing. The view of the river was wonderful as well. We will be staying here again. Heck maybe our once a year trip will turn in to multiple trips. Stop scrolling and book this place you will not be disappointed.

Bourbon trail getaway

The cabin was gorgeous, well appointed and peaceful. Our host, Kellie went above and beyond to make us as comfortable as possible during our stay. The coffee and snacks were a kind touch and she was very helpful suggesting fun places to see during our stay. We truly wish we didn’t have to come home to Florida - especially after the storm. We were just so comfortable here. Thank you Kellie for sharing your home with us

This house is awesome and has an amazing host. So attentive and available to answer any questions. The location is quiet and about 20 minutes from Fort Knox. Anyone with a cadet stationed there for advance camp I highly recommend this house. Your cadet can easily rest and relax in this secluded gem. In addition there is a full kitchen and outside grill so you can give them a nice meal before you send them back. Absolutely perfect.

There were two things that made our stay extra special - the beautiful home and the host. Kellie, the host, was exceptionally helpful, answering questions (lots of questions) before we even arrived. She gave us suggestions on things to do and places to eat, grocery stores, everything! Then the home itself - so clean, so comfy, so inviting. Kellie took care of every little detail. So grateful that Kellie was there for us and we were able to spend time in her beautiful cabin. Thank you, Kellie!

Serene Setting

I traveled with my husband to the area for an extended weekend to participate in activities at nearby Ft. Knox with our sons. The proximity to Ft. Knox made the back and forth travels super simple and quick. The property is amazing!! So peaceful and private - the covered porch was the perfect spot to read a book on the porch swing or take a nap or just take in all the sounds and views the surrounding nature and the River provide. The cabin itself is so charming and no details were missed in providing a “home away from home.” The surrounding fields of sunflowers were an unexpected bonus!! The communication and friendliness with the owners was fantastic - very quick responses and very flexible with schedules and other accommodations/requests/questions. Definitely recommend and hope to come back someday!!

A lovely cabin and beautiful property. We enjoyed relaxing on the porch, watching the barges go up and down the river. The cabin had everything we needed and was a peaceful home away from home for a week. There was an issue with the air conditioning after the first night, but Kelly worked hard to keep us comfortable and make things right until the unit could be fixed. We would definitely recommend this property.
