All the reviews that say this cabin is even nicer than the photos show are telling the truth! It’s a gorgeous spot with big water views out every window. It’s on a bluff high above a scenic river bend. Having our meals out on the deck watching the barges pass by below is something we will never forget. But the real fun of this place is that the log cabin is such a work of art and so meticulously outfitted with everything you’d need.

If you want to relax and enjoy the views of the Ohio River, this place is it.Quiet, no rush to do anything, and if you do want to get out, there is a National Park, the Historic town of Corydon, and a great winery, Turtle Run.

My partner and I spent our anniversary weekend here for the second year in a row. Once again our host Karen was nothing short of exceptional. This darling cabin had everything we needed- towels, toiletries, cookware, even ice cubes. The view from the comfortable reclining loveseat is breathtaking. We enjoyed unwinding in the hot tub and watching the boats on the Ohio. The price point was a steal for this private getaway and we were able to dine at the Overlook restaurant less than five minutes away.

The property was as described. Highly responsive host. The negative about the cabin, the bed was pretty hard. I had trouble sleeping in it. Also, be careful if you have the ceiling fan on and climbing the ladder to the loft. It smacked me in the head when I was up there. Karen, the host was very responsive and helpful to let us know the cabin experienced a power outage. However, we did not stay at the cabin. We ventured out for supper, and the power was back on when we returned. Watching the river barges and boats was very relaxing. We had neighbors, but never was bothered by them. I would recommend this cabin to anyone! We could have just stayed at the cabin and done nothing else! Thank you, Karen!!!
