Red River Gorge

Cabin was great. We had 5, 2 adults and 3 'kids' ages 10 to 16. It was comfortable for the 5 of us. Loved the outside table, esp for my coffee. Kids enjoyed the hot tub and the smores. Close enough to the gorge and hiking that you are not driving all day to get to things. Coffee bar was excellent and greatly appreciated. It was a fantastic place and the boys loved the gorge.
