Fun cabin near Cave Run Lake and Red River Gorge. We spent a day just hanging out at the cabin, plus a day each in Red River Gorge and Carter Caves. Each night was spent around the firepit. Great place!

Nice cabin

Enjoyed our stay. Cabin had more than enough room for us. Cabin was supplied with almost everything we needed. We forgot a lighter for the fire pit & grill & did not find one in cabin. There was a Dollar General store close which was convenient.

Beautiful area and great accommodation

My family spent a long weekend away before we move yet again with the military. The area was absolutely breathtaking. The cabin was all we needed and more. There was nothing we needed as everything was provided. Thanks for a great stay.

Amazing highly recommended

I want to start off by saying the owners are truly amazing! They gave us lots of advice on things around the area. Very friendly got back with me quickly super good to us! Home was very nice and clean! Love the location and neighborhood! Everything you would want in a little getaway, very nice screened in porch to relax on nice fire pit to sit at and have family time, close to the lake couldn’t ask for much more! My family really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend! Gets five stars from us!

Comfy cabin

This cabin was perfect for our trip. Very clean upon check in and had everything you could need while away from home. Daniel the owner was available for questions, a short phone call away. We only had 2 concerns. 1 was the cell phone reception. But being in the mountain it was expected. And 2 we saw a handful of wasps inside the cabin. They were only inside and always came out during the day while we were gone. Previous guests have mentioned the wasps as well.

Great location to the lake

Unfortunately we had a lot of rain. The screened in porch allowed us to still be outside during rainstorms. My dad even slept on the porch most nights! Inside was cozy with tons of room. Cabin has one queen bed & a bunk bed with a full bed on the bottom. If you need more beds the cabin is equipped with multiple air mattresses. Plenty of room for those. Be aware you may have to put the sheets on the beds. Check for that when you arrive so your not doing it at midnight like I did. There is no dishwasher which is fine but you may need to wash dishes before using. Kitchen is well stocked. Coffee maker, toaster & a crock pot! Large fire pit area & large yard. We were able to put our dog on a 30’ lead & he had plenty of room to run. He loved the cabin too! There are woods & a creek behind the cabin. We didn’t get to explore due to the rain though. There are cabins all around but we still didn’t see a lot of people. If you want to fish from the shore we couldn’t find many spots but there are a few very close to the cabin. The cabin is in a great location to get to many areas of the lake. We are already thinking about a trip late spring or summer next year. This cabin is on my list!

The property was very clean and well-maintained. Very cozy and charming property. Pet-friendly is a plus. The host is very kind and easy to communicate with. It's a quiet neighborhood and perfect for relaxing. The screened-in porch with chairs is also perfect for calm nights.

Perfect for Weekend Getaway

The directions provided by the host were excellent, and needed since we lost service about 15 minutes out! It's a cute neighborhood, neighbors didn't bother us at all. Hikes required a bit of a drive, but the place itself was very clean, warm (wood burning stove!). Bring your own firewood or be prepared to go find it!

Cabin near the lake

We had a good stay.The cabin was nice. We enjoyed the firepit. The location wasn't what I expected, a bit noisy with kids riding 4-wheelers.But it was ok. Could have just been temporary neighbors spending the weekend like us. Overall it suited our purpose.

Beautiful property!

The cabin is beautiful and in a lovely location. The screened-in porches were especially nice. It is not a 2-bedroom, however. That's explained in the description, but it really should be listed as a 1-bedroom property.

Stay at the cozy cabin

The stay was good, i only have two suggestions and that would be to have a fan or some kind of cooling source in the living room to help cool the down stairs a little quicker, second thing would be to clean a little better in the shower..Overall our stay was great there were lots of extra amenities thats definitely made the experience very at home like, we would definitely rent this cabin again

Cave Run Lake Cabin

This cabin was perfect for our family. It was clean and cute. All of the beds were together on the second floor. It was one big open space and my husband and I were on one side and my kids were on a bunk bed on the opposite end. Which I liked a lot because I’m always worried about my kids in an unfamiliar place. I have no negative comments to leave only one small suggestion. There were only 2 small mirrors over the sinks in the bathrooms. Maybe a full size mirror somewhere in the cabin would be helpful. I know I’m not the only woman who likes to see her entire outfit before heading out. :) We will be back.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We are the Farlow Family out of Cincinnati, Ohio. We purchased the cabin to use personally as well as to allow others to enjoy it. We will often come down and enjoy the quiet time away as well as the exciting time at the lake.

Please feel free to send me any questions you have about our Cabin and I encourage you to stay there, you will enjoy it!

Why they chose this property

After years of searching, we choose this property because of its secluded location, and how close it is to the lake. 5 minutes to the closest ramp, with fishing close by makes having a cabin in Daniel Boone National Forest a real treat!

What makes this property unique

Enough space to sleep 7 people with all the amenities of home. Large enough area to turn around and park your boat.
