The cabin was absolutely perfect for our group weekend. The kitchen was stocked with supplies needed for us to cook and the living room/couch was so comfortable. The beds were very cozy and bathrooms spacious. The owner of the property is incredibly friendly, stopped over to say hi and welcome us. We felt very safe. Lots of hiking nearby. Will absolutely be planning to come back.

A perfect summer vacation

Host has thought of everything in this perfect retreat in the woods. My sister and I loved curling up under one of the big cozy blankets and enjoying coffee on the porch. After coffee it was a morning hike to the breathtaking overlook. The house is perfectly comfortable and every detail is thought of by this gracious host.

We had an amazing relaxing getaway at the red cabin! Bill is absolutely amazing and keeps the property in immaculate condition. We had everything we needed and then some. We enjoyed relaxing mornings on the wrap around porch admiring the deer, cozy fires at the fire pit at night, walking the peaceful trails in the woods, looking at the Milky Way at night, and sipping bourbon at the amazing view point during sunset. We had a much needed spiritual break from the every day stress. Thank you Bill!

We are happy to offer our Red Cabin situated on 39 wooded acres, located on the Cumberland Plateau. You will also have access to our adjoining property for exploring and hiking. There are several miles of trails that will take you to scenic overlooks, bluffs, and a hidden gorge.
