Ask a questionAbout Carey & Sue Koplowitz
We love living in the Daniel Boone National Forest. We have 22 acres bordering the Forest and we love the natural beauty, peace and serenity here. We relocated to Laurel County in 2002 and have visited most of the US, the scenic beauty here in the DBNF is our perfect home. Its like camping with all your stuff! We always loved staying in vacation rentals instead of hotels because when on vacation we like to get away from it all! Our home in the woods is like being on vacation all the time!.
Carey & Sue Koplowitz purchased this cabin in 2014
Why Carey & Sue Koplowitz chose London
We purchased this hand-crafted cabin built in 2012 in 2015. It perfectly squares off a corner to the front of our property and we offer this cozy vacation home for your enjoyment. Our 22-acre property borders the Daniel Boone National Forest along the northwest boundary and is about ten miles to Woods Creek Lake to the north, Laurel Lake to the south, City of London to the east and the Wild and Scenic Rockcastle River to the west. The natural beauty, peace and solitude in the general area is what really drew us here. Our cozy cabin in the Daniel Boone National Forest is in a rural, forested area. Close enough to the modern world yet far enough away to escape daily life and traffic. Its always 10 degrees cooler here in the woods! The Daniel Boone National Forest in the Appalachian foothills is a temperate, mixed mesophytic appalachian rain forest with amazing and unique flora, fauna & biota. You'll marvel at the sandstone karst terrain and caves found in this unique area. We love our little piece of the forest and hope you will too!
What makes this cabin unique
Many of our guests tell us how this area is every bit as beautiful as the Great Smoky Mountain region minus all the traffic and we agree! Conveniently located 5 miles off White Oak Road in London, Kentucky. Exit 41, 80W. midway between Wood Creek Lake and Laurel River Lake. Maximum 2 guests, this cozy studio cabin is perfect place to escape from it all. Very little traffic noise & nice dark night sky, you won't see another house in your tiny cabin in the woods! We offer many amenities over the local hotel room. "Its less expensive and better than the Hampton Inn" per a recent guest. This is a great place to get away from it all! At 358 sq. ft. this is "tiny home" living at it's best. Relax on the porch rocking chairs, hammock for 1 or 2, grill & chill at the picnic table in the yard or roast marshmallows for S'mores at the firepit in the yard, firewood supplied. Its like camping with all your stuff! There's so much to see and do, all within driving distance. Located off a winding, twisty road in the heart of the wild and beautiful Daniel Boone National Forest in London, Kentucky, this is a great place to watch birds and wildlife and unwind. Walk down White Oak Road or hike thru the rugged DBNF to Sinking Creek or drive along rugged forest roads to many lakes, attractions & State & National Parks: London Dragway, Cane Creek WMA, Wood Creek Lake, Laurel Lake, Rockcastle River, Sheltowee Trace Trail, Levi Jackson SP, beautiful Sinking Valley and Short Creek, Sinking Valley Winery, Camp Wildcat, Cumberland Falls & more! With over 40 years experience in food manufacturing and quality assurance, you can be sure that this great little home in the woods will be sparkling clean and disinfected/sanitized prior to your arrival!
