We were so happy to stay here in Kentucky with Susan! The cabin was beautiful and decorated so thoughtfully! She is creative and has everything color coordinated! The subtle outdoor jewel lights created a magical environment. We slept with the windows open and loved the sound of the nearby river!
We loved our stay! Susan is an exceptional host! The cabin and property is immaculate and charming like a fairytale. We loved the nearby hiking and beautiful river!
This was our 2nd time staying here. We just love it! Adorable cabin that’s super clean with everything you need. Location is awesome! The little deck overlooking the beautiful Rockcastle River is such a bonus. Amazing area for kayaking! The house and the host are 10/10!!! Highly recommended!
Susan was easy to work with for this stay. She was great at communicating all information and responded promptly to all messages. Our trip was in question due to weather and she was very understanding and willing to work with changes in plans. We ended up just cutting our stay short, but was a lovely cabin and would like to come stay when we can enjoy the scenery more.
The host is one of the most attentive & conscientious Vrbo experiences I have had. No one staying at Riverside Blue would want for anything before, during or even after their stay. The hosts have worked very hard to make their accommodations comfortable, clean, charming & simply delightful.
great location with the Rockcastle River less then 50 yards from the back deck, the cabin has extra amenities that you will not find in a hotel room. Very clean, fully equipped kitchen, we love the decor of the cabin furniture. Great host that makes sure you needs are taking care of. I'm sure we will return on our next stay in the area.
Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! Cabin was adorable and communication with the host was better than perfect. Would definitely stay again.
Cabin was clean and comfortable, great communication between Susan and myself. She gave us ideas for restaurants in the area and activities to do. Plus a bonus of a dozen eggs from her chickens. We also enjoyed the animals in her pasture.
This was the perfect home away from home! Would definitely recommend!

Thanks for being such lovely people & guests! So glad you decided to extend your stay for the whole week, and stayed in our new Ruby Ravine cabin (since our Riverside Blue cabin wasn't available the entire time). We hope to see you, your cousin and aunt again for future family reunions! 💖. We'll have 3 new cabins ready this July & October.🌲🎉🎶
Beautiful property! Fantastic host!!My friends and I had a wonderful time and our host was very helpful and engaging. She added even more to our wonderful stay!!
Great cabin in beautiful and scenic Kentucky. Great place to enjoy the outdoors or relax. Susan was very attentive and helped make this an even more comfortable stay. We loved it and will be coming back in the future.
Exceptional service from the host. Accommodations as advertised and well appointed.

About the host
Hosted by Susan Jones
I enjoy people, social gatherings, working outdoors, building furniture, live music, art shows, pot lucks, home made desserts, gathering around campfires, and I love animals, outdoor adventure and wildlife. I relocated here Oct 2020 with my 12 pet chickens, kitkats & pup, pursuing my dream to combine all these things into a campground starting with cabin rentals on one side of the property, and working toward building a small campground on the other side of our ravine/creek, with goals to some day (2023? 2024?) host art shows, small live music events, cook-offs, outdoor movie nights, DIY classes, celebration gatherings, hiking & bicycling event gatherings (Red Bud Ride & Sheltowee Trace hike starts up the road!), and I'd love to host large-scale art installations such as the amazing metal and light sculptures seen at Burning Man. We went through a historic flood in 2021 so that was a set back (time consuming, mud clean up, rebuilding, restoring, $draining), so time was lost but we're back on track :) We've started building 4 additional small cabins on our higher ground, and a central shower/bathroom house (on the opposite side of the ravine from the rental cabins) to enable us to some day have such gatherings. The rental cabins will still have their own grassy areas & river view or mountain/grass & trees views.
Why they chose this property
I went on two 30-day land-hunt road trips in several states. I fell in love with this property because it's nestled within a national forest down a paved tree-lined road and right above a river! Yet our campground is very conveniently located just a few miles off interstate 75 freeway, centrally located within northern & southern states, tons of outdoor adventure, hiking, off-road trails, lakes, marinas. London & Corbin KY are nearby for shopping, movies, restaurants, cocktails. Renfro Valley Music Museum & concert pavilion, Berea art museums, numerous beautiful waterfall hikes, Levi Jackson Tree Top & Zipline adventure. We're on private land, private river front, within a national forest, on rolling grassy lawn. I live on the opposite side of the property in a house on 14ft stilts above the river. On this side of the property I have 3 pet donkeys, and sometimes host mini horse and other pasture pets for traveling nurse friends. Once your booking is confirmed, you'll have my contact info.
Feel free to reach out any time with as many questions you may have!
