About the host
Hosted by Frank Hayes
I’ve been welcoming guests to Hickory Cabins for many years and enjoy sharing this part of Kentucky with people visiting the Mammoth Cave area. I’m usually nearby and available if guests need help, but I also believe a cabin getaway should give you the space to relax and enjoy your stay.
I enjoy working on the property, disc golf, technology and, more recently, astrophotography. On a clear night you may even find me outside with a telescope photographing galaxies and nebulae from our dark Kentucky skies.
My goal is pretty simple: provide a clean, comfortable place to stay and help guests have a great experience while they’re here.
Why they chose this property
This property has been in my wife’s family for many years, so we didn’t simply choose the area as a place to build vacation cabins. We already had a connection to this land and this part of Kentucky.
Over the years, we’ve been able to share what makes the property special with our guests—the woods, hills, wildlife and peaceful setting, along with everything the Mammoth Cave area has to offer.
Today, guests can stay on the family property while exploring Mammoth Cave National Park, Nolin Lake and the surrounding area, play our Wolf Knob Disc Golf Course, or simply enjoy the quiet of the woods and the dark night sky.
What makes this property unique
Hickory Cabins is more than simply a place to sleep while visiting Mammoth Cave.
Our three cabins are surrounded by 86 wooded acres, and guests have access to Wolf Knob Disc Golf Course, an 18-hole championship course designed by John Houck. It’s a destination in its own right for disc golfers, but you don’t have to play disc golf to enjoy the property.
After dark, there’s another experience overhead. Mammoth Cave National Park is an International Dark Sky Park, and our location offers wonderful opportunities for stargazing. Guests can even rent our Seestar S30 Pro smart telescope, which I set up for them, and try capturing galaxies, nebulae and other objects during their stay.
It’s a combination that’s difficult to find elsewhere: a cabin in the Kentucky woods, Mammoth Cave nearby, championship disc golf outside your door, and dark skies overhead.
