This little cottage was the cutest thing. One thing I would point out is that county is a dry county. We went to Mammoth Cave, with the government shutdown we were only able to do the self guided trail which was not ideal.

I am very glad you enjoyed your stay! We try to make the cottage cute and comfy for our guests. I hope you all can return when the government is not shut down so you can see all Mammoth Cave has to offer!!

We had a nice stay at this tiny place. The place is comfortable enough. However it is NOT a short walk to Mammoth Cave NP. It is however just a 15 minute drive to park visitor center and tours.

Mammoth cave cabin

Cute little place, probably best for just (and our dog). Beware of grumpy neighbors though. The fire pit was clean, the bed was very comfortable. Easy to get to the park and caves and to Brownsville.

Just a short trip

We come every year a few times and normally stay at the Buoys there is a group of us and it was booked they are having big water issues so we picked this nice little place. It was a bit out of the way but still very nice. We go to blue holler and ride rzr’s so it was nice to just come back and relax.

Cute place overall but not as clean as expected.

The location was good, close to Mammoth caves, and the interior was cute, but when we arrived there was a lot of cobwebs and dust, like it had been a while since it was thoroughly cleaned.

Hi Ousa, we take it seriously when guests let us know that we missed the mark, and after sending your feedback to the homeowner, they wanted to share the following:Thanks for bringing this up. The tiny home is cleaned after each booking, and we’ll take a closer look at the area under the bed where the air mattresses are stored to make sure everything is clear for future guests.Thanks for taking the time to leave your review!

Cozy cabin

We love this cottage. It's location was perfect for us near Mammoth cave. Beautifully decorated. They even had toothbrushes in case you forgot yours. I think that was a really nice touch. The bed is super comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to booking with them again.
