Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed the cabin, a little hot the first night, but what can you expect the end of July in Kentucky. The property overall was excellent and located close to all attractions. Will visit again. Fall may be best for these cabins due to the AC situation! Overall great stay! Thanks for sharing your property!

Better Than Best!

Phenomenal in EVERY way, everytime I thought to myself, "you know what would make this better..." there it would be! The bed super comfy, the appliances worked great, the view out the windows gorgeous, and a great location to access all the natural beauty of the area. The only thing that was NOT awesome was checkin, I didn't get the checkin instructions in time so without instructions I ended up lost for a while since I didn't have service and couldn't contact the host. However that being said when I DID find the cabin the wifi worked great and the host was very receptive and immediately got me everything I needed. 10/10 I will absolutely be returning in the future!

Absolutely Amazing!

My stay here was BEYOND amazing. The entire property is just gorgeous and serene. As a solo female traveler I am always looking for a safe, clean place to stay-- this place checked all of the boxes. To be able to wake up in the morning and sit on the deck sipping on coffee listening to the creek to showering under the stars after a long day of hiking was just blissful. Sam was beyond amazing with communicating and answering my questions before I even arrived. As someone mentioned previously in a review, the cell service can be spotty (I have Verizon)-- but Sam did address this with me and provided the wifi code and I had no issues streaming music/Netflix. To be fair, most of that region the cell service was quite spotty so it wasn't just related to the cabin location. I was also there to escape the world, so I did not mind not having access to service. I would highly recommend staying here. I definitely will be looking to stay again in the future.

Awesome Getaway

My husband and I stayed for a weekend get-a-away. We have 4 kids so this was much needed. We initially reserved and paid for a larger cabin, however it ended up being booked, so we stayed in the smallest cabin out of 3. The host provided a refund and apologized. The cabin we stayed in was wonderful. Small as described in the listing, but very nice. The open air shower was amazing, and we had hot water all weekend Only 1 complaint (which is no ones fault), there was a copperhead snake in our fire pit the entire time. I did contact the host and a reptile wrangler was sent to get the snake (after we left). The creek next to the cabin (almost underneath) is amazing and great to sleep to the sound of the water. I would definitely recommend this place to any couple who just needs to get away. There is no service for any provider, so download your music before you get here.

This is the place if you're wanting to isolate yourself from reality and have the beautiful scenery of nature. Close to other nature preserves, and other attractions as well!

Weekend get away

After an amazing day of hiking, we went off the beaten path to our glamping house. It had everything we wanted and needed and the scenery was amazing. Having the creek right outside the door was perfect and the cold water felt amazing. The outdoor shower was dialed into perfection and the campfire was relaxing. Beds were comfortable and I would gladly choose to stay here again.

An absolute gem in the Gorge

This "Unique RRG glamping experience" cabin (also known as "Cave Creek RRG" on Google Maps) was a lovely place to stay. There are 2 cabins (though much to our surprise when we arrived, a 3rd was in the beginning stages of construction). The largest and best (IMHO) is Full Moon, which has a private deck that faces the creek towards the source of its flow - that's where we stayed and the focus of this review. The second largest is Half Moon, which is the one in the middle. Not sure what they'll call the 3rd under construction, but it's the closest to the road. When we stayed, Half Moon wasn't rented, so we had the entire property to ourselves. Both Full Moon and Half Moon have small kitchenettes on the inside (cold water in the kitchen sink only), and an exterior toilet and heated shower. The showers are exposed and "open air"; the toilets may be a camping toilet (read: a bucket with a seat on it), or in the warmer months it may be a flushing RV-style toilet. The entire site has city water and electric to all cabins. It appears the grey water for both the kitchen sink and shower empty onto the side of the creek. The toilets (when flushing in the warmer months) empty into a septic tank. In the cooler months, it's up to you to change the toilet bags after you do your business. I can't stress enough how nice it is to be able to shower in an open-air outdoor heated shower (it's heated via a camp heater that runs off of propane and is fairly easy to operate to the point where they're pretty much idiot-proof). The owner provided us an extra tank of propane that was in the root cellar building. Full Moon cabin appears to be fairly well constructed for a "camping cabin". The main attraction is the large multi-windowed viewing wall (which is also the side that you enter the cabin from). It has a striking view into the woods and up the creek. The main door locks and has an electric passcode deadbolt lock on it. The cabin was clean, the linens/towles in excellent shape (pretty much new); and the kitchenette was nicely stocked with some bare essentials. We were provided with 1 extra roll of paper towels and 1 extra roll of toilet paper. Plan to bring (or purchase locally) more depending on your needs. No firewood is provided, but there is a small fire pit off of the wood deck from Full Moon cabin (and a larger fire pit off of Half Moon, strangely). Lovely time!

Better than expected

The set up and location of this cabin is perfection. The cabin was clean, neat and the addition of potable water when the water had to be disconnected was great. Once the water was able to be reconnected the outside shower was amazing. You have truly built a hidden gem in the Kentucky mountains. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay there and I'll definitely be coming back.

Secluded and Peaceful

This property was so cozy! It is a bit outside of all the usual Gorge attractions but if you’re looking for a more private feel this is the place! It is on shared property by another cabin, and facing the creek you feel right in the middle of nature! We would definitely come back.
