Nice cabin

Cabin was nice and nearly perfect for what we were looking for. There were a few, sleepy, wasps in the cabin, along with lots of dead (and living) ladybugs, otherwise the cabin was very clean. The kitchenette worked. We wish there was a list of appliances on the listing as we thought there would be a hot plate or something inside. There was a grill on the deck, but it was a bit cold to cook outside in the mornings and at night. Jed, the dog, was great, sweet and friendly boy. Overall would book again if we were going to be in the area.

Not recommended

We did not stay. Infested with ladybugs. On the wall, ceiling , floor, furniture. Piles of dead bugs just swept together and left on the floor. Cabin does not have actual windows, just plexiglass. Property is very close to a busy street. Needless to say, we walked in and out. Contacted the host and she basically said that we are missing out on a quiet weekend. No rhanks. I would not let my dog stay there.

After summer retreat

Our stay was fantastic. It had just enough of the modern conveniences yet rustic, simple and cozy. We would definitely come back. Jed the dog was a great host and good friends by the end of our stay.

Nice quiet getaway

Wonderful experience! Host was amazing! Very helpful and responsive. If you’re looking for an out of the way cabin to relax and refresh this is it. There are a couple waterfalls nearby to check out. The surrounding towns are small but you can get what you need.

Cute cabin.

It was definitely a small rustic cabin but very cute. Bed was comfortable. Living room was comfortable and cute. Small fridge and microwave. No sink other than in bathroom but we made it work. No stove but small counter/bar with stools. Bathroom was fine. Clean with small shower. Good WiFi and nice tv. Outside was in the wood’s which we loved. We were there 3 nights.

Eastern Ky getaway

Very peaceful and relaxing stay! The evenings were quiet as we sat around the fire-pit with the moon poking through the trees.We really enjoyed our visits from Jed ( the owner’s sweet dog). The cabin was conveniently located between various locations that we visited-the Gorge Underground, Flat lick Falls, Natural Beidge, Corbin, Cumberland Gap Natl Park and Cumberland Falla! We definitely enjoyed our stay!

Great Getaway

My fiancee and I found this place to be a very cozy stay. We weren't able to explore much through out the day as it rained in the day time. But as it cleared at night, we were able always able to enjoy a nice fire. It is a little closer to the road than I would have preferred, but it isn't a very busy road, especially when night came. Overall, for the price, location, and the quiet nights, we would definitely return for a stay and recommend it to anyone looking for a rather secluded getaway.

Perfect weekend get away

Wife and I decided to get away for the weekend. Wanted to explore the Daniel Boone National Forest area in our Jeep and visit with nearby family. Cabin is exactly as listed. Perfect for the wife and I plus the Dog. Karla and Mike were great but Jeb was the best!! Any information we needed they were able to provide the perfect solutions in a timely manner. Will be staying again and would recommend to anyone looking to explore the area. Much more to explore in that area

Cute little cabin for short people

Lovely property. My friend and I enjoyed the quite. Woods come right up to you. We sat and read alot. Good driving to flat lick falls. The cabin bathroom and bedroom have short ceilings. I am 5ft 4 and could touch them easily, so keep that in mind if you are tall.

Long weekend getaway

The cabin was so quaint and just as described. Met a few of the kindest people. Had the pleasure of speaking with a life long resident of McKee eho told me she is 87 and had just retired from the bank after 65 years, that is amazing. We loved the scenic views snd went on a couple hikes. I would recommend this to friends.

Cute Little Place

Its a cute little place. Perfect for a little getaway. We stayed there 4 nights in November. They had heaters and a wall heater to stay warm. The grill worked great. They have a friendly dog that comes down to visit. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Just ok

Our first day the house wasn't even ready until 7:30 p.m. and we paid full price for that day. Also, there is only a 5 gallon water tank so even with the quickest shower I have ever taken I had to rinse my hair with cold water. There is only a breakroom microwave and absolutely no dishes. So I had to go buy something to heat our food in. Otherwise the beds were comfortable, my boys enjoyed the movies available.

Getaway

My husband, 3 kids, and I stayed here for 5 days. We enjoyed it so much! Mike and karla are great! They're so helpful and nice. Anytime we needed anything they helped right away. We went and hiked the surrounding trails,went to the Ark, and swam in the falls at Flat Lick. It was so beautiful. The property is located right next to the Daniel Boone National Forest. So beautiful! Something to consider is that theres a very small fridge and only a toaster over but it has a good grill. We used ice chests along with the fridge and made it along just fine. We used the grill and i brought along my air fryer. They have an outdoor shower as well! It was so neat to be able to shower outside and watch the stars or see the sunset! We enjoyed our stay very much! So peaceful and highly recommend!
